Alana & Shay are in the final half of Hulu's The Girl From Plainville. The ladies are in agreement that the last two episodes (5 & 6) could have been smooshed together. With Alana walking around and Shay looking at her phone, their interest kind of waned this week. Which is interesting, considering it was the start of the trial episodes. There were some high points, like Elle Fanning nailing Michelle Carter's new walk and the actress playing Conrad's mom absolutely rocking it, but the Snacks are ready to see the rest of the trial play out and compare it to what they remember from the case in real-time.

Alana & Shay are in the final half of HBO's The Staircase! Episode 5 was much of the same for Shay, but episode 6 FINALLY pulled her out of her phone and glued her eyes to the screen. A new theory in Kathleen Peterson's death allowed Shay's number one fear (birds) to become a *possible* reality. However, Alana isn't so sure. Speaking of unsuredness (that's a word, right?), there's a certain scene in the episodes of Hulu's The Girl From Plainville that had the ladies scratching their heads and saying WHAT? in their best Minion voice. And last, but most certainly not least, in lieu of pop culture, Alana & Shay spend some time discussing the terrifying SCOTUS ruling that dropped last week. Homework for next week: The final two episodes of The Staircase & episodes 5 & 6 of The Girl From Plainville. Follow Shay on Instagram & Twitter Follow Alana on Instagram & Twitter You can follow the pod here!

The podcast is covering two new episodes of HBO's The Staircase this week (episodes 3 & 4). It's gotten slightly less boring and Shay finally figured out the family dynamics in this one. But she still hasn't fully put her phone down or uncovered her eyes. The girls started another dramatized true crime series this week! They're two episodes into Hulu's The Girl From Plainsville. Alana & Shay dote on Elle Fanning's amazing performance as one of America's creepiest girls. Only two episodes in, this show is already getting more love from the snacks than The Staircase. Will this remain true? Only time will tell. That being said, catch up on your homework for next week!

The Snacks have also started something new this week; when a show ends, they'll each give a chef's kiss rating & find a good drink/snack to pair with the show. Tune in for the first chef's kiss ratings for The Flight Attendant! But the girls will go ahead and share the pairing cause you've got to have it ready while you listen: a classic gin & tonic! As one show came to an end, a new one began for this girls' night in discussion: HBO's The Staircase. Alana & Shay watched the first two episodes of this dramatized true crime series to discuss all that's happened thus far.

Candy was short, but (unlike her name would suggest) not so sweet. And by that, we mean– well, you'll just have to listen in and find out. If you were a fan of The Flight Attendant's first season, then you'll be sure to love season 2. And if you're like Alana, you'll like it even better!

Alana & Shay are back from their midseason break and they're feeling all refreshed, renewed, and rejuvenated! Of course, coming back, the ladies were ready to discuss two NEW shows: The Circle and The Thing About Pam! Shay & Alana have been keeping up with The Circle since season 1. So, to stay on brand, it's no surprise season 4 was on the Whole Snacks Podcast TV Guide. The pod's episode 13 is all about the first half of The Circle. Who are the girls' faves & who had them scratching their head? You'll have to tune in to find out! Even though Shay made a mistake and watched this one prior (her exact words to Alana were: too bad we didn't pick The Thing About Pam for the pod bc this show is SOOO good– to which Alana replied with the straightest of face emoji . . .), the Snacks still kept this one on the roster because it was too good not to discuss. #shaysnumberoneshowof2022sofar (disclaimer: we are very aware this hashtag is extremely long and probably won't stick, but there it is). Like with The Circle, Alana & Shay are discussing half of the series with the first 3 episodes! Tune in to hear their thoughts and be sure to pop back in next week for the second halves of both The Circle & The Thing About Pam! Welcome back, Snack Pack!

It's the midseason finale! So, of course, we had to wrap up some shows before we take a little breaky-break. In this episode, Shay and Alana share their final thoughts on the very first season of The Ultimatum: it was . . . a thing. Alana loved it. Shay liked the second half. Will they watch season 2 when it airs? The show has already been greenlit for more awkward dates with your friend's significant other. We wanna know what you think! Should Alana and Shay cringe– binge– their way through another season? (If you're on Spotify, answer the poll!- for a limited time) Lastly, it's another documentary for your viewing pleasure and your earhole's pleasure (for when you listen to the girl's commentary): Netflix's White Hot. In under an hour and a half, we learned all about the background discrimination and sexualization of the former Abercrombie & Fitch. (Abercrombie is currently under new ownership, rebranded, and has strayed far away from their past.) Alana and Shay get into some deep discussion before moving on to very scattered pop culture news. But hey, it's interesting news nonetheless! Check out this final episode before the snacks return for the remainder of season 3 on May 24th! Until then, check out Seasons 1 and 2 or stalk us on the socials! Follow Shay on Instagram & Twitter Follow Alana on Instagram & Twitter You can follow the pod here! Your homework: The Thing About Pam (episodes 1-3) & the second show will be announced on socials!

With two episodes left until the mid-season finale, Alana & Shay are ready to dive in! The ladies finish discussing Bad Vegan & to sum it up: How? Why? We are so confused? The cringeyness (Shay's words) that is The Ultimatum continues & things just keep getting worse. This episode is all about the trial marriages, so tune in to hear what the girls think. Next week, Shay & Alana are wrapping up the final four episodes. So, make sure you're all caught up! (Also, your homework: White Hot). In pop culture news, it's all about the court cases, babyyyyy. & as Shay and Alana put it: let's just end on Usher.

It's the beginning of two brand new shows for the Snack Pack to digest! This week, Alana & Shay discuss Netflix's newest dating experiment: The Ultimatum. For Shay, it's a bit uncomfortable, but Alana loves the drama (okay, Shay loves it too). Listen in as they dive into all the new reality TV couples. Next up, the ladies have a new fraud doc to take the place of The Dropout and it's Netflix's Bad Vegan. All that needs to be said right now is: how sway?

Bridgerton season 2 & The Dropout conclude and you'll want to grab a drink to hear the ladies' final thoughts!

Who knows! Sit down & join your girls anyway. They're ready for a quick chat!

The Dropout, Bridgerton, & the slap! Oh my! Alana and Shay continue discussing Elizabeth Holmes and The Dropout.

Moving on, Bridgerton is back, baby! Shay's favorite show returned and she couldn't wait to discuss episodes 1 through 5 with Alana. All the romantic feels were much needed following the slap heard 'round the world.

It's time to get jiggy with it.

This week, the ladies take an inspiring step forward and continue their discussions on "The Dropout" and Shay recaps what she's watched on "Euphoria".

This week is full of the new new. Well, the new new & some old new, but some new ish nonetheless. The two shows Alana and Shay discuss in this week's episode are Hulu's new "The Dropout", starring Amanda Seyfried and the show Shay was so behind on starting: "Euphoria". So, now you see why we had to clarify and say new new and old new. Get the ladies' thoughts on the show depicting another in real life con artist and listen in on Shay reminding Alana on what happened in those first few episodes of one of HBO's biggest hits. In the pop culture segment of the episode, Alana updates Shay on the newest Love Is Blind news and Shay returns the favor by updating Alana on all the KarJenner info. Grab your drinks! It's time to chit chitty chat.

This week, Alana and Shay wrap up their thoughts on Inventing Anna. Did they like it? How'd it end? How much wine do they need to get them through the time that's between Inventing Anna and when they can watch their next Shonda Rhimes binge, Bridgerton season 2? The ladies also started and finished Netflix's Pieces of Her (based on the Karin Slaughter novel of the same name the two discussed in a book club episode) and Alana couldn't wait to share her thoughts. The episode wraps with KarJenner news and finally, some other pop culture news that surfaced over the week. Grab your wine and some snacks. Cheers to another episode with your new best friends!

This week's episode wraps up season 2 of Love is Blind! Alana and Shay discuss the reunion and the couples that carried us through the second season of the crazy experiment. Discussions on Inventing Anna are continued as the ladies make it through episode 3 of the newest Shonda Rhimes gem. How else would Shay and Alana end the show, but to share the latest Kimye and Kimye adjacent news and drama? Maybe the craziness will wrap up soon so these two have time to discuss other pop culture news come episode 5?
