Podcasts about lawndale high

Derek Boyd II carries a 4.0 gpa, the Lawndale offense on his back and the weight of the South Bay's pain on his back & in his heart. That pain and responsibility only fuels him to be the best player & man he can be as he commits to play football at the University of Hawaii under the guidance of Hawaii legend and new head coach Timmy Chang. His story is the reason this platform exists. We hope you enjoy this interview as much as we enjoyed bringing it to you.

For those that wanted to hear all of the Daria in one file instead of two we got you covered. Enjoy our breakdown on Lawndale High's newest student Daria and how this spin off of Beavis & Butthead introduced us to an apathetic dry comedy with a lot of heart. 

Join us for the second half of Daria with our very special guest, Meghan Berliner. We dive into the Sick Sad World that is Lawndale High breaking down just how great this series was and the unsung hero of the town. 

Time for another episode of Morgendorks! This week, we're covering "Lucky Strike." When the teachers of Lawndale High finally decide they've had enough of their criminally low salaries, they go on strike—and it throws Daria into a pretty awkward spot when she's ... kinda ... strong-armed into being the replacement Mr. O'Neill. Not sure how we feel about Daria "Once Sparked a Socialist Riot" Morgendorffer suddenly not being on the side of the worker, but we'll talk about it. This one was a lot of fun!

Time to cover "Fat Like Me," this week on Morgendorks! When Sandi—not Stacy, Sandi—breaks her leg and gains a few pounds, it tosses the entire Lawndale High social structure into disarray and gives Daria and Jane a chance to do some good ol' fashioned scheming. It's a ... complicated episode to talk about, and you'll sense how torn we were throughout. Also, you might get to the beginning of the episode rankings, look at the timer, and wonder why there's still like half an hour to go. Be there for when we look into the inspiration for this episode's title and absolutely lose our shit for a while! Note: In the interest of getting this one out on time, the final edit's not as clean as we'd usually like. Lots of ums and uhs that might not otherwise be there. Thanks for understanding!

Let's go ahead and mark our entry into season five with some hearty dialogues against capitalism: It's time for "Fizz Ed," this week on Morgendorks! When a cash-strapped Lawndale High turns to cola companies for those sweet, sweet vending machine contract dollars, Daria's forced to grapple with the juxtaposition of her moral objections and her general apathy. And for our cultural context, we take a look at the controversy surrounding vending machines in schools. Are the health risks acceptable? What about the morality behind treating students like a demographic? Enjoy!

Time for another Morgendorks! This week: "I Loathe a Parade." It's Homecoming time at Lawndale High, which can only mean one thing: Daria goes on a toilet paper run and stumbles across both a parade and the long-forgotten Tad Gupty, who can't find his parents, so she ends up escorting him around, but she also runs into Tom, who decides to tag along, and then they start getting along way more than usual and it's a weird vibe and also Upchuck's driving a swinger mobile. Such a quaint yearly tradition. In the wake of the tragic death of Chadwick Boseman, our cultural context this week focuses on the importance of representation in media. How well are we doing? Spoiler: Not well at all. But it underscores the potential of a show like Jodie's upcoming series, and that's worth talking about.

Are you ready to tackle the menace that is SPACE COMMUNISM? If you aren't, that's cool, because I don't think Lawndale is either. Time to talk about "The Lawndale File" on Morgendorks! When shady government types come to Lawndale High and talk about rooting out individuals acting suspiciously, paranoia grips the town. Are communists among us? What about aliens?! And why is Quinn suddenly dressing like she did back in "Quinn the Brain"? All that, plus a dive into the anti-communist roots of science fiction in American media! ... woo!  Links: Outpost Daria Reborn Website: morgendorks.podbean.com Patreon: patreon.com/morgendorks Email: morgendorks@gmail.com Twitter: @morgendorks Facebook: fb.me/morgendorks.podcast

And so we come to the point that it seems so, so many shows came to in the late 90s and early 2000s: LET'S HAVE A MUSICAL! This week on Morgendorks, we're looking at "Daria!" When a hurricane threatens Lawndale, Daria and Jane have the deep misfortune to find themselves stuck on the Lawndale High roof. Will they survive? What will become of Lawndale? Who has the worst singing voice? Find out all of this, and more! (It's Mack. Mack has the worst singing voice.) We also dive a bit into the theory behind musicals, which is to say a lengthy discussion on diegesis. What does it mean? How is it applied to musicals? Why is it particularly important to television musicals? Hoo, boy.

Yo. Let's talk about nuts. It's time for "It Happened One Nut," here on Morgendorks! When a career aptitude test shakes some of Lawndale High's finest, Daria ends up getting a job alongside Kevin at the local mall's peanut distribution specialist, It's a Nutty Nutty Nutty World. We also spend some time talking about Baby Nut, because how were we supposed to avoid that? And for our cultural context, we dive into the nostalgic mystery of the dyed, bright-red pistachio.

New decade, new episode of Morgendorks! That's how it works. This week, we're taking a look at "Daria Dance Party"!

Welcome back to Morgendorks! First and foremost: Thank you all yet again for your patience, support, and well-wishes over the past few months. It has meant the world, and y'all remain absolutely awesome. Anyway, on to business: This week we're looking at "The Old and the Beautiful," wherein Ms. Li decides some mandatory volunteer work is just what Lawndale High needs, and Daria ends up reading to some elderly folks—which leads to her getting some sage wisdom from Brittany, of all people. And in our cultural context, we look at this whole "mandatory volunteerism" thing. What was the point of it? How popular was it in the 90s? Did it work? Find out, this week on Morgendorks!

See Daria. See Jane. See Jane Run. See Daria lose her ish. Lose your ish, Daria, lose your ish! Or maybe don't? It's weird. It's time for "See Jane Run," here on Morgendorks! When a mix of libido and family pride convinces Jane to join the Lawndale High track team, Daria's left in the dust—and it does not go well for her at all. It's an interesting episode with a few really odd notes, and we had a lot of fun with it. And for our cultural context, we look at the under-the-table perks of being a student-athlete. How prevalent is academic fraud, like what we see in this episode of Daria? (Spoiler: Super. But there isn't much data on the high school side of things.)

GOOOOOOOOOD MORNING MORGENDOOOORKS It’s time to pay bizarre tribute to the Vietnam War films that defined an era, as this week we cover “The Daria Hunter”! Lawndale High sends its students out on a paintball field trip, and it only takes one short afternoon for war to make everybody a monster. It’s a weird episode (get used to hearing that) for a number of reasons, but we’ll do what we can to make sense of it. Also, we take a deeeep dive into Hollywood’s efforts to grapple with depicting the Vietnam War, how Vietnam impacted decades of American media, and what, if anything, it could have to do with the intended audience for a got-dang episode of Daria.

It’s time to look hard and disapprovingly at the bizarre and kinda gross world of teenage plastic surgery, as we dive hard into “Too Cute” in this episode of Morgendorks! When a Lawndale High girl with her eyes set on getting into the Fashion Club goes out and gets work done on her nose, it sets off a fad that sucks Quinn in—and fills her with some of that old high school chestnut: horrendous, world-shattering insecurity. We end up looking into the statistics a bit to get a grasp on just how prevalent this sort of thing actually is. Spoiler alert: way too prevalent. So brace for that, I guess. Enjoy!

We didn't get enough gross predatory behavior from the last episode, so we're back at it again with This Year's Model! When some modeling talent scouts invade Lawndale High and have a bunch of teenage girls thinking they could be the Next Big Thing in modeling, Quinn's hooked—and Daria's just kind of along for the ride. Lots of talk about modeling and its impact on vulnerable or impressionable youth in this episode—as well as some super not-cool jokes the writers slipped in.
