In 1994, Jen was sent to a "therapeutic boarding school" in The Middle of Nowhere, Montana. (She had some issues.) That meant a lot of things, but one is that Jen missed two full years of popular culture when she was 16-18 years old. Join Jen and her husband Micah and revisit your old faves as they…
We continue our journey through season 6 of Northern Exposure with episodes 16, 17, and 18. We get to visit Cicely's own Little Italy, discuss reincarnation, moose humping cars, socks, and Casey at the Bat! And Ed comes to some sad realizations about Nosferatu and Forrest Gump. Thank you so much to our patrons and […]
There are strange things done in the midnight sun by the men who moil for gold… We're back to Northern Exposure, and Robert Service makes an appearance. What a strange set of episodes these were. One was fine, one was a shit pile, and one was real fuckin' weird. Thank you so much to our […]
Balloons, small cars, cylinders, octagons, objects! Montana, Alaska, Canada, Lake Huron, Roswell! That's right, this week we're watching the freshly relevant 1994 Showtime movie “Roswell: The U.F.O. Cover-Up” starring Kyle MacLachlan, Martin Sheen (kind of), and Dwight Yoakam. If you haven't been able to get enough of unidentified aerial objects lately, we've got you covered. […]
Northern Exposure season 6, episodes 11 and 12 were great and went perfectly together. We are all connected, man. You know? Also jen shares a gem of a letter that she wrote to her brother while she was at the therapeutic boarding school. Remember to keep that banana in front of your nose! Thank you […]
Northern Exposure episodes 9/10. Jen does fantastic, entirely irrelevant impressions! Micah shares the worst comic of all time. And there's all kinds of shit going on in Cicely, Alaska. Most importantly, remember this:There's only one kind of person who would have Holling's haircut, and that's a pervert. Jen also talks about soccer in Montana and […]

Marilyn's back, baby! That means we're on board for all of season 6 of Northern Exposure. This week we watched episodes 3 and 4, and wow there's a lot going on. Joel finds out he's a bad person via a rabbi with some VHS tapes, Holling puts his sins on Ed, who is somehow both […]
This week are tackling the first two episodes of the last season of the very ‘90s show Northern Exposure! Hear us talk about Rob Morrow's Seinfeld-esque mullet, what happens when you drink orange juice with native “medicine” in it, and why a grown woman woke up in a doll house. Thank you so much to […]
It's our 120th episode, so we decided to mark the occasion by watching the classic slasher film Scream from 1996. We planned ahead so hard that we watched this movie over a year ago, but recorded about it now! So we definitely remember all the details like how it stars Neve Campbell and a dad […]
We thought a Mel Brooks/Leslie Nielsen movie might be a fun way to celebrate October. We were wrong. Thank you so much to our patrons and all our supporters! Become a Patron!
We're transitioning from our back-to-school-themed episodes to spooky times with an episode we recorded a long time ago! This week we talked about 1996's The Craft starring Fairuza Balk, Robin Tunney, Neve Campbell, and Rachel True! So get out your spellbook and welcome October with us. (Warning to all our See In The Funny Papers […]
This week is a little different because the episode is the audio from the video we made for the Scavenger's Network Independent Podcast Showcase! Was that confusing? Just wait until you hear how bad Micah fucks everything up in this one. Listen to find out what we watched this week! Also, there are weird transitions […]
It's not “Robin Williams' wildest role yet,” and it's certainly not “non-stop laughs” despite what the summary tries to tell you before you watch Francis Ford Coppola's 1996 film Jack, the hilarious tale of a kid who is destined to die young. (It's not funny.) Be sure to listen for information about SNIPS, Scavengers Network […]
Choo choo! All aboard for part 2 of Pat's Playlist! Hear about Pat's first kiss! Hear about Jen's Smashing Pumpkins love! And of course, listen to Micah's stupid segment.

Track list: Blues Traveler: Run Around Dave Matthews Band: Ants Marching Bush: Machinehead Radiohead: Fake Plastic Trees Take That: Back For […]
TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains discussions of transphobia and homophobia because the first movie we watched (Ace Ventura: Pet Detective) was extremely transphobic/homophobic. Jen's sorry, ok? She's sorry! She didn't know! She's so sorry! But at least we are now officially done with Jim Carrey! All Patreon funds we receive for the next month will […]
Unfortunately we had to see Jim Carrey's dong again. Help us decide whether it's “third time's a charm” or “three strikes and you're out” for Jim Carrey as we crack ourselves up talking about 1996's The Cable Guy! The post 112 The Cable Guy appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Simon says: Listen to this podcast about a blockbuster from summer This isn't the greatest film, but we've watched dumber It stars Bruce Willis and Samuel L. A mysterious German puts them through hell They have to solve riddles and race across town If they fail, things go boom, and Bruce Willis will frown You […] The post 111 Die Hard With A Vengeance appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Jen wouldn't stop her incessant bleating about how tired of Summer Blockbusters she was, so we're taking a break of sorts and chasing waves around the world. This week instead of explosions and guns we talk about Bruce Brown's Endless Summer II from 1994. And we're joined by a returning special guest, Elliott! The post 110 Endless Summer II appeared first on I Never Saw That.
It's the worst of our summer blockbusters so far—1994's True Lies! Hear Arnold Schwarzenegger talk to horses! Hear Jamie Lee Curtis scream! Hear yet another absolutely baffling See You in the Funny Papers! Also, help us answer: Is this our “that's what she said” episode? If so, we promise never to do it again. The post 109 True Lies appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Number 3 in our summer blockbuster series, it's Twister! We sound like real jags in this one, especially jen. Turns out it WAS her parents who raised her. Why the hell was Aunt Meg in this movie? Find out what shape a tornado is and hear the most confusing comic ever this week. The post 108 Twister appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to listen to the next in our Summer Blockbuster series: Mission: Impossible! That's a lot of colons! We promise there's no colon talk in the episode. There's also no Mission Mountain School talk in the Mission: Impossible episode? How'd we miss that opportunity? It's probably The […] The post 107 Mission: Impossible appeared first on I Never Saw That.
We're kicking off our Summer Blockbuster series with a very apropos classic from 1996 — Independence Day starring Will Smith, Bill Pullman, Vivica Fox, and Jeff Goldblum! Contrary to jen's opinion, this movie is not Men in Black. Come whoop E.T.'s ass with us, but seriously, fuck this country. Thank you so much to our […] The post 106 Independence Day appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Part 2 of our Beavis and Butthead adventure with Eric! Get ready for the worst comic you've ever had described to you by a couple of assholes and 5 more episodes of Beavis and Butthead's incisive commentary on both music and bungholes.

And find out if you, too, are too lazy to rock and too lazy to clean the tub. Thank you so […] The post 104 Beavis and Butthead with Eric appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Hey there groovy chicks! It's The Brady Bunch Movie! No, not the one in Hawaii. No, not the one at the Grand Canyon either. The 1995 one. There's a lot of ill-advised singing both in this movie and in this episode about the movie, so be warned. Also, Micah is wrong about when the Brady […] The post 103 The Brady Bunch Movie appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Pack your flannels and meet us in Seattle for a road trip movie! It's 1995's Mad Love! A friend and fan of the show requested this one several years ago and we're finally getting around to it! It's the adorable combination of Chris O'Donnell and Drew Barrymore in this road trip/forbidden teen love/fucked up portrayal […] The post 102 Mad Love appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Finally, by popular demand, we watched the movie everyone has been waiting for us to cover, the only movie Whoopi Goodberg has ever REGRETTED making, the undisputed greatest dinosaur movie of all time: It's Theodore Rex!

Thank you so much […] The post 98 The Head Episode 6 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Things take a weird turn this week, and for this show that's really saying something. The feds are into each other! We find out how Roy the alien has sex! And jen talks about how she had to carry a backpack full of rocks in Montana, as a metaphor. That rocks thing is definitely the […] The post 97 The Head Episode 5 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
*Note: We are having some sound issues with our mics and did our best to edit them out. We apologize for any sounds that are not pleasing to your ear holes. Parts of this one will also be posted to our sex podcast feed (also called I Never Saw That). That's right, there's sex in […] The post 96 The Head Episode 4 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Week this, forgot we did, reverse audio, before recording, we did, so, listen to end very you should. It's episode 3 of MTV's The Head! There's a museum to the west and a plan! Also, jen has several existential crises, but we instill in each other a new sense of hope. Ok, bye. The post 95 The Head Episode 3 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
This week we talk about more episode(s) of MTV's The Head. Micah starts off by being super wrong and sharing a confusing See You In The Funny Papers, Jim's new head tenant, Roy, gives more details about the coming alien invasion and how to stop it, and jen discusses the effectiveness of therapy based on […] The post 94 The Head Episode 2 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Tale as old as time. Guy goes for walk at night, sees a bright light, blacks out and wakes up with a giant-ass head. We're talking about MTV's The Head! This show is delightfully weird and jen definitely would have watched it if she hadn't been sent away. Come with us as we hang out […] The post 93 The Head Episode 1 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Rest in peace, William Hurt. In honor of his death, we discuss the star-studded 1995 movie Smoke. Harvey Keitel! Forest Whitaker! Stockard Channing! We get deep this week. What makes a life worth living? What was Christmas like at the therapeutic boarding school? Why the fuck did jen inadvertently make See You in the Funny […] The post 92 Smoke appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Welp, M.A.N.T.I.S. really went off the rails after the pilot, and we go off right with it. Micah brings an EIGHT-panel See You in the Funny Papers, Jen considers a new podcast where she just recites 80s movies, and we talk about one of the cultiest things about Jen's therapeutic boarding school. The post 91 M.A.N.T.I.S. Episode 3 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
M.A.N.T.I.S. What does it stand for? Nobody knows. Except us. And Dr. Miles Hawkins. Come to this one for the fuck the police vibes, stay for the indistinct harassment and jen's hilarious joke. The post 90 M.A.N.T.I.S. appeared first on I Never Saw That.
We're talking about a little-known show called The Simpsons this week, with our good friend James. James shares two of his favorite episodes from our time period and Micah talks shit about how much Peter Frampton sucks. The post 89 The Simpsons with James appeared first on I Never Saw That.

Happy Valentines Day! We're back! For real this time! I wish we had something good to say about While You Were Sleeping, but at least See You in the Funny Papers sucked! Thanks for listening! The post 87 While You Were Sleeping appeared first on I Never Saw That.
We finally did it! We finished our last chapter of our Gargoyles adventure. Boy am I gonna miss that loin cloth. More importantly though, this week we are joined by a very special guest and friend, Shift, who shares some of his brilliance with us. This was recorded a couple weeks ago, just after the […] The post 86 Gargoyles – S1 Eps 11-13 with Shift appeared first on I Never Saw That.
‘Goyles! We’re talking about ‘Goyles again as all the superfans call Gargoyles. Just two episode recaps this week because it’s a Sunday on See You in the Funny Papers and Micah got excited. Also Jen brings it hard with a new educational segment about US History (see U.S. Constitution Article XIII(c)i). She also brings it […] The post 85 Gargoyles – S1 Eps 9-10 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
We’re back with more Gargoyles this week, in an episode that really shows our range. We cover everything from Gargoyle boners to the relationship between oppression and power, jen talks about water intake in Montana, and we are perpetual ding dongs throughout. The post 84 Gargoyles – S1 Eps 6-8 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
We continue awakening with the Gargoyles this week as we cover the episodes entitled Awakening, Part 3, Awakening, Part 4, and, you guessed it, Awakening, Part 5! Micah describes a new and exciting comic as part of See You in the Funny Papers and we give explicit details on how to reach us by spelling […] The post 83 Gargoyles – The Remaining Awakenings appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Gargoyles! We watched some of it, but we didn’t really talk about it much. So if you got excited, we’re sorry. Gargoyles was a cartoon show on in 1994, but you wouldn’t know that from listening to this episode that is purportedly about said cartoon show. Micah does his really dumb and long segment and […] The post 82 Gargoyles S1 Eps 1-2 appeared first on I Never Saw That.
Heeeeeeyyyyy. So, yeah, we decided to watch 1995’s Outbreak. Just now. Yes, that Outbreak. Because what better time to watch a movie about a terrifying pandemic than during an actual pandemic? We don’t dwell on gross details, but we get it if you’re not up for this topic right now. Don’t worry though, we still […] The post 81 Outbreak appeared first on I Never Saw That.
We’re back again! This time for keeps. For real? For a longer time–whatever, our hiatus is over. We’re back to making regular episodes. This is not a regular episode though. Making episodes regularly is what I meant. Anyway, Jen reads a letter sent from Mission Mountain many years ago and Micah catches Jen up on […] The post 80 We Are Back appeared first on I Never Saw That.
