Podcast appearances and mentions of christy admiraal

They're all gonna laugh at you. TOTAL MASSACRE starts its foray into the teen girl high school social satire canon with CARRIE, a film that may not be satire, but it's very concerned with many of the same things, as Rowan argues, and is a tremendous influential film and story overall, as special guest Zack Handlen argues. Does first-time viewer Christy Admiraal agree? What is the difference between comedy and horror in the end? Why are CARRIE adaptations so keen to make Carrie so skinny? How awful is Nancy Allen, and how not-threatening is John Travolta? And why is Rowan so attracted to Piper Laurie in this anyway???

It's all led to this. Over a hundred episodes of action movies, science fiction movies, crime lesbian movies, and Gerwig movies has to our apotheosis: LADY BIRD. Why did Kev redefine their life about this movie? Why was Rowan terrified about how close to home it would hit? Why was special guest/new co-host (kinda) Christy Admiraal excited to join us? How astonishing is this cast? How great are the core performances? How did Greta Gerwig manage to make "liking Crash by the Dave Matthews Band" into the emotional climax of an all-time great film? All these questions and more -- including what the fourth season of TOTAL MASSACRE will entail -- on this massive sweeps week episode! 

TOTAL MASSACRE returns after a quick break with MOON, the Duncan Jones film Rowan selected as the movie important to how and why she's on this podcast. We've got all kinds of Sam Rockwell content as well as Rowan explaining the three main forms of Hollywood science fiction, and how Moon changed her perception of what seemed to be possible. Plus special guest Christy Admiraal. Also cute robot emoji! Also a problematic robot voice.....

We're talking about Minutes 79-80 of The Muppet Christmas Carol, in which Scrooge sings about his "Thankful Heart." With special guest Christy Admiraal of the Pizza Toast YA media podcast! PLUS: Bean Bunny's moves! Sprocket catches coins! How does one file a friendly chart? Is Scrooge wrong about counting friends? And Statler & Waldorf's haberdashery! Hosted by Anthony Strand & Ryan Roe Guest Christy Admiraal Produced & Edited by Ryan Roe Logo by Morgan Davy Movin' Right Along: A Muppet Movie Podcast is available at ToughPigs.com or on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Anchor, Google Podcasts, Podcast Addict, or wherever you get podcasts!

It’s a rerun from 2020, but with BONUS content! Christy Admiraal and I talk about SOCCER BALLS!

On this very special episode, we're joined by friend Christy Admiraal to discuss her favorite episode of her favorite television show: Boy Meets World's slasher movie homage And Then There Was Shawn. We talk scary janitors (who might actually be ghosts), our history with school detention, and celebrity heights.  Listen to Christy on Pizza Toast!  If you like the show, rate and review us wherever you listen, but especially on Apple Podcasts! 

We’re unhinged this week as Brian Skinner from Center of Weirdness and Christy Admiraal from our very own Pizza Toast join me yet again to discuss Valentine’s Day! It’s “The Berenstain Bears’ Valentine Love Bug” but it’s really just madness. It’s madness.

New Year’s is a time for optimism, but instead Christy Admiraal discusses Sylvia Plath’s 1963 roman à clef, the Bell Jar. Also, John totally gets the dates wrong for this book’s complicated publishing history. Host John McCoy with Christy Admiraal.

Rowan felt like doing the sequel to Bourne so....we did it. Spy expert Christy Admiraal, Kev Koeser, and Jay Pullman dive into the Indian Ocean for a CIA thriller that questions whether Americans may be the baddies, provides a respectable fridging, and shakes the camera like it's a moneymaker.

Rowan is rejoined by Rob Zacny and Christy Admiraal for a discussion of 2012's SKYFALL. Rowan is very skeptical of James Bond, but loved half of this and hated the other half. See why she calls it the most morally reprehensible film we've covered yet! But also homoerotic spy shenanigans? Like the British Empire, SKYFALL is a land of contrasts.

We're talking about Minutes 67 & 68 of The Muppets Take Manhattan, in which Ronnie Crawford announces his plans and Pete writes telegrams to the gang. With special guest Christy Admiraal of the Baby-Sitters Club fan podcast Pizza Toast! PLUS: Some sad-sack stuff! Ronnie is cute! Jenny's secret catch phrase! Is it disturbing to see Gonzo in bandages? Beauregard's missing scene! And big questions about the kennel! Hosted by Anthony Strand & Ryan Roe Guest Christy Admiraal Produced & Edited by Ryan Roe Theme Music by Staci Rosen Logo by Morgan Davy

Rowan is joined by new IMF field team agents Stella Sacco and Christy Admiraal to discuss Brad Bird's 2011 hit MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL. We talk about how easy this movie is to watch, how well-crafted the central heist set piece is, the total lack of plot, Paula Patton's limbs, Jeremy Renner's face, and giggle with glee at the sheer entertainment on offer.

Hey all! Valentine’s Day is almost upon us, so we’re celebrating with a Month of Sundays on Saturday! That’s right, it’s ALL VALENTINES, ALL THE TINES, er, TIMES! And, to see us through the Season are returning Valentines themselves, Christy Admiraal and Brian Skinner! We’re kicking things off with a too-close look at the befuddling … Continue reading "Episode 281 – Comic Valentine TV Special!"

All December long, we're releasing from the archives some of our classic Christmas episodes. On this episode from Dec 31, 2018, we're joined by Christy Admiraal, cohost of Pizza Toast: A Babysitter's Club podcast, to discuss the plethora of dogs that make up The 12 Dogs of Christmas.

Christy Admiraal joins Balloo and Darling this week for the usual game of Mon Mom and to discuss Ditto, Eevee and the first gen Eeveelutions: Vaporeon, Jolteon and Flareon. Including a look back at a trope of 90s Action cinema, our wishlist for the recently announced Face Off remake, Depression Era candy, a moment of remembrance on an important day in US History (that time Ted Cruz liked a porn tweet), and the one Eeveelution we don't want to see.

Go Boldly where no Voorhees has gone before! That’s right, Patrick & Gena are scouring the final frontier and they’ve brought along nerdiest.com/birthmoviesdeath contributor and The California Diarists podcast creator Christy Admiraal along for the ride. On this episode, Gena declares herself officially “done” with Friday the 13th and imagines what Aliens would be like if the synthetic robot Bishop from Aliens wanted a working dong while Patrick reveals a painful haircut trust from his past. We also delve into bad shower sex, the curse of Scream and Christy declares Jason X, “the best kind of trash.” All this and a variation on Choose Your Own Death-venture that has to be heard to be believed.

On this week's episode, we find out if we actually do love a giant, goofy-looking turtle by discussing the 1998 family comedy Everyone Loves Mel (suggested by friend and former guest Christy Admiraal). This movie has so many things to love: a surly teen, a wily grandpa, a greedy land developer, a giant turtle that can... well, you'll see. We critique Roger's singing skills, Mom and Dad's parenting skills, and Grandpa's secret-keeping skills, as well as speculate about what other special abilities Mel might possess. Rate and review us on Apple Podcasts if you like the show, and tell a friend! 

What do you see when you look at this inkblot: a masterpiece of sequential art, or a confusing mess? Christy Admiraal discusses the unavoidable Moore / Gibbons comic Watchmen. Host John McCoy with Christy Admiraal.
