Mary Clohan + Julie Drexler Johnson
This week Julie and Mary record their first remote episode. And boy do we have a special guest! Fellow Rock Rising podcast host Michael Johnson on this week to describe the movie Parasite. Topical enough???? Hold on to yer butts, this episode is a drinking game. *Recorded remotely while practicing social distancing during COVID-19. Stay safe!
This week we answer the eternal question: “what’s in the box?” as guest Amanda Rothman gives us her version of Se7en. Did you know that the title is actually a reference to the 7 famous movies it was based on? Neither did we. Listen and find out which movies were included in this blockbuster student film.
Special guest host Jamison Shimmel steps in this week and shit gets dark this week as Julie describes the movie “Deliverance.” Have you ever wanted to hear the song “Be Our Guest” sung in a minor key? Neither did we. But it happened. Listen now and never think of the South or Beauty and the Beast the same ever again.
On this week’s episode, grandpa is babysitting a young Dan (or is it Fred?) Savage and Julie, Mary are cozying up to their guest Chris Tucker’s plot of “The Princess Bride” with a glass of BUTTERY Chardonnay. This one is a love story for the ages; witches, rock people, a cursed Mandy Patinkin, now that’s a fairy tale.
Have you ever met anybody who hasn’t seen Get Out? We found someone and this episode is a must listen. Smitty has some fairly enlightening thoughts on Get Out: 1. It’s important that the black guy survives. 2. This movie is definitely about ayahuasca....right?!
Hmmmm...why would people have moved to St. Louis at the turn of the 20th Century? Addi and Mary have no clue because they have no interest in and have never seen Meet Me In St. Louis. Julie, on the other hand, is from St. Louis so she was bursting at the seams with fun facts about her hometown which was fun for nobody but her. We also discovered that Judy Garland invented the lightbulb!
A third member of the Drexler clan, John, joins us for this week’s episode to describe the movie “Midsommar.” We’ve got cults, we’ve got bear kings, we’ve got a testicle shrine and lots and lots of white nonsense. What more could we ask for in this daylight thriller?
This week, our guest Ilana Rubin thrills us with her plot for “Thelma and Louise.” You won’t want to miss this epic tale of female revenge that may or may not feature a race car subplot and/or love affair between Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis.
This week we welcome back Mary McDonnell as she tells us her version of the Pixar movie “Cars.” What is this nightmare landscape where sentient helicopters are forced to carry cars inside of them? Why are the cars’ lips so moist and rubbery? Listen and find out!
Silence of the Lambs: This week, our guest Lindsey Brett Carothers takes on one of the greatest psychological thrillers of all time, “Silence of the Lambs.” A professor/student murder duo taking out bad guys? You’ll eat this plot right up...with a side of fava beans. Hope you can hear this new episode over the sound of those screaming lambs!
For the first time on our show, our guest Davin Turkewitz knows way more than either Mary or Julie about the real plot of the movie in question: 50 Shades of Grey. Who knew the most erotic movie of the 21st century was actually about a man child looking for an unpaid intern to watch him play XBox? This plot is hot but the sponsored ads for Toyotathon are hotter.
Have you heard of the cult classic film Practical Magic? Neither had we. Our guest Aaron Gold makes up a pretty darn good plot - super witchy, full of magic, and full of single-dad-falling-in-love-with-witch-neighbor-ness. We really loved this episode, and it’s funny...because Mary and Julie still haven’t seen Practical Magic.
It’s simple, really - there’s a magical ring and there are definitely elves. Right? Listen as Leannet Rodriguez recounts the plot of The Fellowship of the Ring. And worry not! We found out that Tolkien did, in fact, write about the details of elf sex. Turns out that they can have sex with humans!
This episode is just about as satirical as the movie itself. It's also a drinking game, and here are the rules: take a drink every time we say "and THAT'S...comedy". How many freaking good jokes did we write on this episode?? It wasn't a writer's room, it was a RIOTERS room!
Mark this episode as VERY IMPORTANT. Why? Because Achilles Stamatelaky has cracked the Spoiler code. He very accurately tells the entire plot of The Shape of Water based on only watching the final scene: a fish man kisses a dead woman underwater.
