박효신 debuted in November 1999 as a singer and musical actor, and was called the "second 임재범" at the time of his debut.He made a strong impression with the title track '동경 (Longing)' from his second album, which was created with contributions from some of the greatest musicians of that time, like 김동률, 조규만, and 유희열.He's an incredibly talented vocalist with outstanding vocal power and a unique voice, known for his captivating and monster-like vocal ability.Because of his live performance skills, he's sometimes suspected of lip-syncing during his musical performances!He has one of the biggest fandoms, comparable to that of idol solo artists. He is a perfectionist when it comes to his music, going beyond meticulousness.A national treasure-level musician!Let's take a listen to 박효신‘s music now.Today's playlist1.

I'm talking with Lisa See, the New York Times bestselling author of so many beloved books, including Lady Tan's Circle of Women, The Island of Sea Women, Snow Flower and the Secret Ban, Shanghai Girls, and Dreams of Joy. Lisa's books often center the experience of women across time and cultures, particularly stories that have been lost, forgotten, or deliberately covered up. Lisa talked with me while she was on vacation and I'm so thankful that she carved out some time for us. We covered: - How her mother and grandfather were both writers, so she, naturally, vowed never to become one… and how that all changed when she was bumming around Europe on $5 a day after college - The atrocious 1970s TV miniseries that was so poorly written, it inspired her to try writing fiction (under the pen name Monica Highland) - How she started researching the Chinese side of her family thinking that she'd include a short letter about it in that year's holiday card, and how that grew into “On Gold Mountain,” her first book written under her own name, as well as a national bestseller and New York Times notable book - What's been easy and what's been hard about her work as a novelist - A peek into her (fascinating) research process - The routine she follows every morning routine (that involves waiting for her husband to get done exercising) - Why she doesn't worry about keeping her tea hot Big thanks to our sponsor, AquaTru.com.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues Lisa See, whose latest novel is “Lady Tan's Circle of Women,” now out in trade paperback, is interviewed by host Richard Wolinsky. Recorded on July 14, 2023. Lisa See's best-selling books include Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, Peony in Love, China Dolls, and most recently, The Island of Sea Women. Each novel, thus far, focuses on the role and lives of women of East Asian descent in various countries, including Korea, Japan, China and the United States. Some of the novels focus on a mystery, others take place within the context of historical events. Her latest novel, “Lady Tan's Circle of Women” looks at the life of an historical figure, a female doctor of upper class birth living in China in the 15th Century. As Lisa notes in the interview, the circumscribed life of Tan Yuxian bears a startling resemblance to the isolation we all felt during the Covid lockdown.

Either Little Love by Ankestrick using Brooklyn Tweed Loft or Fine Sand by Heidi Kirrmaier using West Yorkshire Spinners Illustrious. Kelly's Projects Finally finished and washed the baby blanket. Now I'm eyeing the rest of that tub of acrylic for a potential next project. Aunt Betty used a really pretty rusty orange for a pumpkin. Maybe I'll find another inspiration or maybe it goes to Goodwill. Suint Bath Update: Took out the dark gray Romney and laid it out to dry. Put in a part of the small Shetland that followed me home from Lambtown. It was in for a week (or two?) and now is out on the drying screen. It was almost dry yesterday, but now it is being drizzled on. By the way, the Romney stayed on the drying screen for about a week or so, getting dry during the day and then coated with dew or drizzle each morning. Events Pismo Beach Trailer Rally, November 2-5.

The smell was very sulfurous. I rinsed it out and left it out to dry. Just like it said in everything I read, the smell disappeared when it was dry. It is still greasy from the lanolin so I'll need to use hot water. I might spin some of it in the grease just to sample.

Marsha's Projects: Noromania: Finished!! I used 42 skeins of Noro Kureyon (Aran weight). The finished size is about 71” x 83”. I used 4,578 yards and estimated I knit 173,680 stitches. Ironically, I ran out of yarn binding off so I found some leftover Lamb's Prides to bind off the last 1⁄8 of bind off. Flowers from My Garden: Starting a spinning project with fiber I bought at Stitches in March. I've spun three 3-ply skeins. I received the new motor for my Dreaming Robots EEW 6.0 espinner so I am back in business. Snowflower: by Heidi Kirrmeier. Cast on twice and both times twisted the stitches when I joined 312 stitches. Decided after the bright yellow provisional cast on to knit two rows of main color. Then I picked one leg of the backside of the provisional cast on with bright blue and knit four rows and bound off. This gave me more fabric to keep the stitches from twisting. I would love to know if listeners have a better idea of how not to twist stitches when joining that many stitches in the round. Nanny Meier Tea Cozy: Inspired by Lily Pulitzer colors. Using Cascade 220 in hot pink and lime green. Finished first side. Santa's Laundry Line: by Eleonore von Castelmur. Using Lang Yarn Jawol fingering in red, green and cream and some left over fingering weight gray. Socks: Using Knitterly Things Vesper Sock Yarn in the colorway Sum-Sum-Summertime. Heels and toes will be Dream in Color Mini Smooshy in the colorway Bermuda Teal. Kelly's Projects: Corrie x Targhee x Merino The blue/green (peacock) singles are spun but didn't get plied. Started a baby blanket using the best parts of my mom's acrylic leftovers. Fleeces washed: New Romney fleece. Skirted the lightest (and best) parts and washed them. New East Friesian fleece. Skirted and sorted into front and back quarters. One front quarter has been soaking in a suint bath since Monday.

I'm still working on processing a Corriedale x Border Leicester from 2016. I'm flicking the locks before I feed them into the drum carder, trying to keep the fibers as aligned as possible (as is done in combing). I'm pulling the batts off the carder through a diz and making nests of pseudo-combed top. I've done another 2 oz of this relatively slow process. Finished my mom's Chicks in a Basket and finished the antlers on her reindeer ornaments. Why, oh, why did she choose these patterns? Finished the dyeing up the remainder of the Corrie x Targhee x Merino fleece that I started this summer with the purple skeins. Once it was dry I started carding the red/orange dyed fleece into batts. I also have blue/green, blue, and a red, purple and natural batches to card.

I finished spinning the Corriedale x Targhee x Merino fleece where I dyed the wool and then carded. This is a Black Sheep Gathering fleece from 2017. I still have about 2 lbs of this fleece left and I was losing about 10% in the carding process on this fleece. I started and finished a 3 ounce braid of mixed BFL that was overdyed by Two Guys Yarn. It's a two ply yarn in muted primary colors. I'm still working on processing a Corriedale x Border Leicester from 2016. I'm flicking the locks before I feed them into the drum carder, trying to keep the fibers as aligned as possible (as is done in combing). With this fleece I'm pulling the batts off the carder through a diz and making nests of pseudo-combed top. This process has resulted in about 20% loss. I worked on the quilt and completed the eleventh circle of quilting out of twenty.

Lisa See, whose latest novel is “Lady Tan's Circle of Women,” is interviewed by host Richard Wolinsky. Recorded via zencastr on July 14, 2023. Lisa See's best-selling books include Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, Peony in Love, China Dolls, and most recently, The Island of Sea Women. Each novel, thus far, focuses on the role and lives of women of East Asian descent in various countries, including Korea, Japan, China and the United States. Some of the novels focus on a mystery, others take place within the context of historical events. Her latest novel, “Lady Tan's Circle of Women” looks at the life of an historical figure, a female doctor of upper class birth living in China in the 15th Century. As Lisa notes in the interview, the circumscribed life of Tan Yuxian bears a startling resemblance to the isolation we all felt during the Covid lockdown. The post Lisa See, “Lady Tan's Circle of Women,” 2023 appeared first on KPFA.

Senator Jason Anavitarte has called for immediate action, urging the Georgia House of Representatives to pass legislation to establish a Georgia Cyber Command. The proposed measure would transfer the responsibilities of the Georgia Technology Authority to the Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency. A statewide chief information security officer would be appointed to oversee the command, fostering partnerships between the public and private sectors for information sharing. Earlier this year, Georgia passed SB 93, which prohibits state employees from using social media platforms controlled by foreign adversaries on state devices. Senator Anavitarte sponsored both SB 93 and SB 97, emphasizing the need for robust cybersecurity measures. Story 8: Houck Colin Houck, a standout athlete at Parkview High School, has consistently exceeded expectations in both baseball and football. As the school's all-time leader in passing yards and touchdowns in football, Houck saved his best performance for his senior season on the baseball field. He received numerous accolades, including being named Daily Post's County Player of the Year and Gatorade National Player of the Year. Despite the scrutiny from scouts, teammates, media, and his own high expectations, Houck thrived and handled the pressure exceptionally well. His impressive statistics, such as a .487 batting average, 50 RBIs, 58 hits, and 58 runs scored, highlight his exceptional performance. Houck attributes his success to eliminating distractions and prioritizing his team. His leadership and achievements have made a lasting impact at Parkview High School. Story 9: Stripling Staying with baseball, Landon Stripling, a talented athlete from Parkview High School, demonstrated his ability to adapt and excel on the field during the 2023 season. As a junior, he transitioned from being exclusively a pitcher to also contributing as a hitter, earning him the Pitcher of the Year award. In his senior year, Stripling faced another adjustment when injuries forced him to take on a starting role instead of being the team's closer as originally planned. However, his experience as a starter in previous seasons made the transition smooth. Stripling's impressive statistics, including a 10-3 record, 1.55 ERA, and 68 strikeouts, showcased his pitching prowess. Additionally, he had a remarkable offensive season with a .430 batting average, 13 home runs, and 45 RBIs. Stripling's consistency and dedication to the game earned him recognition as the Gwinnett Dugout Club's Dual Player of the Year. While he has committed to playing college baseball at Texas Tech, he remains open to the possibility of being drafted into Major League Baseball. Stripling remains focused on his development and taking each day as it comes.

This week, bestselling author Lisa See discusses her new historical fiction novel Lady Tan's Circle of Women, with Joanne Leedom-Ackerman The following conversation originally took place June 12, 2023 and was recorded live at the American Writers Museum. AWM PODCAST NETWORK HOME About Lady Tan's Circle of Women: The latest historical novel from New York Times bestselling author Lisa See, inspired by the true story of a woman physician from 15th-century China—perfect for fans of See's classic Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and The Island of Sea Women. According to Confucius, "an educated woman is a worthless woman," but Tan Yunxian—born into an elite family, yet haunted by death, separations, and loneliness—is being raised by her grandparents to be of use. Her grandmother is one of only a handful of female doctors in China, and she teaches Yunxian the pillars of Chinese medicine, the Four Examinations—looking, listening, touching, and asking—something a man can never do with a female patient. From a young age, Yunxian learns about women's illnesses, many of which relate to childbearing, alongside a young midwife-in-training, Meiling. The two girls find fast friendship and a mutual purpose—despite the prohibition that a doctor should never touch blood while a midwife comes in frequent contact with it—and they vow to be forever friends, sharing in each other's joys and struggles. No mud, no lotus, they tell themselves: from adversity beauty can bloom. But when Yunxian is sent into an arranged marriage, her mother-in-law forbids her from seeing Meiling and from helping the women and girls in the household. Yunxian is to act like a proper wife—embroider bound-foot slippers, pluck instruments, recite poetry, give birth to sons, and stay forever within the walls of the family compound, the Garden of Fragrant Delights. How might a woman like Yunxian break free of these traditions, go on to treat women and girls from every level of society, and lead a life of such importance that many of her remedies are still used five centuries later? How might the power of friendship support or complicate these efforts? Lady Tan's Circle of Women is a captivating story of women helping other women. It is also a triumphant reimagining of the life of a woman who was remarkable in the Ming dynasty and would be considered remarkable today.

Snowflower had no relation in the world but a very old grandmother, called Dame Frostyface. People did not like her quite so well as her granddaughter, for she was cross enough at times, though always kind to Snowflower. They lived together in a little cottage built of peat and thatched with reeds, on the edge of a great forest. This short story is sponsored by our friends at 5amily.com

Monika has a strong sense of her identity, which really comes across on her Instagram page where she shares her love of fashion along with a positive message of self acceptance, you are who you are. “The skin we are in is exactly as it's meant to be”. Monika will also be launching her new fashion brand In 2022 which will be full of beautiful prints.

Happy Holidays Army, I hope that you are enjoying or will be enjoying your time with family! In the spirit of the holiday season I picked two of many beautiful Christmas songs by V & Jimin "Snow flower & Christmas Love". I go through many inspirations, meanings, lyrics, etc. Each of these songs has so much to give to Army with so much emotion, dedication, love. With the emotion and dedication to fans, I cannot believe to do They for us and how they have made such an impact on ARMY. Both of these songs were released as gifts to fans for the holidays, which is so sweet of them to do that for Army. I hope you enjoy this episode! I had fun making it.

In this book club podcast episode, we discuss books: Small Pleasures by Clare Chambers and Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See.Small Pleasures: 1957, the suburbs of South East London. Jean Swinney is a journalist on a local paper, trapped in a life of duty and disappointment from which there is no likelihood of escape. When a young woman, Gretchen Tilbury, contacts the paper to claim that her daughter is the result of a virgin birth, it is down to Jean to discover whether she is a miracle or a fraud. As the investigation turns her quiet life inside out, Jean is suddenly given an unexpected chance at friendship, love and - possibly - happiness. But there will, inevitably, be a price to pay.+ + Snow Flower and the Secret Fan: Lily is the daughter of a humble farmer, and to her family she is just another expensive mouth to feed. Then the local matchmaker delivers startling news: if Lily's feet are bound properly, they will be flawless. In nineteenth-century China, where a woman's eligibility is judged by the shape and size of her feet, this is extraordinary good luck. Lily now has the power to make a good marriage and change the fortunes of her family. To prepare for her new life, she must undergo the agonies of footbinding, learn nu shu, the famed secret women's writing, and make a very special friend, Snow Flower. But a bitter reversal of fortune is about to change everything.As always, will either of these books make it onto the shelf?

Wir freuen uns auf ein weiteres Jahr mit euch an unserer Seite, auf glückliche Erinnerungen und unvergessliche Momente in unserer BTS ARMY Journey.

Our guest this week is the bestselling novelist Lisa See, whose works include Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane, and the classic memoir On Gold Mountain-- works that cross oceans and eons to tell the stories of female friendships and family bonds. Set on a small island off the coast of Korea, See's new novel The Island of Sea Women is the latest selection of the Barnes & Noble Book Club. In its pages, See follows the lives of two young women through the Japanese occupation, two wars, and the arrival of the dramatic changes of the modern era. Like all of her books, it's tailor-made to spark conversation, and so we were delighted to have Lisa See on the podcast to talk with Miwa Messer about the inspiration behind The Island of Sea Women.
Despite the noises and interruptions the yarn talk continues! Through downpours, laundry, head shaving, a neighbor coming by and odd thumping in the background, the show goes on.

Project Updates Marsha finished her cardigan Cloud Cover by Heidi Kirrmaier and loves it. Marsha double checked the label on her fleece and it is Wensleydale x Cormo x Merino fleece. After our last episode Marsha ordered another skein of worsted yarn from Thirteen Mile Lamb and Wool to have extra for dyeing for the colorwork pullover, Snowflower by Heidi Kirrmaier. She is still in the planning stage for dyeing the yarn. Plus she wants to take a colorwork class. Marsha is almost done with Slack Tide Scarf by Poststitch that she is making for her brother and she cast on a scarf for herself called Shared Rib by Anne Hanson using Old Maiden Aunt Yarns fingering weight that she bought last March at the Edinburgh Yarn Festival. She also cast on a pullover Mountain High by Heidi Kirrmaier (again!) using The Croft Shetland Tweed by West Yorkshire Spinners that she bought at the The Yarn Cake in Glasgow. Kelly finished the Mystery Knit Along with Cozy Up Knits using the Two Ewes Replenish Rambouillet. It will be one of her Stitches garments if it gets blocked in time. Kelly has started the Koru by Aroha Knits. She’s using Dance Rustic Silk from Dragonfly Fibers. News The Solidarity Swap on Ravelry is a pattern and/or yarn swap celebrating designers and dyers who are people of color or from underrepresented groups. The group has a designer bundle listing a variety of designers and Indie dyers that you might not have seen before.

A little knitting and a lot of permission to break spinning and knitting rules. Wait--there are no rules! The Ewes share anti-racism resources, plus, listener questions and feedback to round out the show.

Join the community on Ravelry or email us with your thoughts. twoewes@twoewesfiberadventures.com is our email address or you click contact us on our website. Project Updates Marsha continues to work on her Cloud Cover cardigan by Heidi Kirrmaier. She is almost done with the collar and then will weave in the ends and block. She has been spinning her Wensleydale x Cormo x Merino fleece. It has been slow but steady progress but Kelly gives her permission to break some rules! Marsha is also planning her next project. She plans to use Imperial Ranch Columbia, a mulespun worsted weight yarn in the colorway Juniper Green. What is “mulespun”? Below are two links with for information: https://www.marrhaven.com/faq.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinning_mule She is also thinking about starting her Snowflower by Heidi Kirrmaier using worsted yarn from Thirteen Mile Lamb and Wool. Kelly is continuing the Mystery Knit Along with Cozy Up Knits using the Two Ewes Replenish Rambouillet. She made only a little progress in the last two weeks but still plans to finish by the February 14th deadline. She is dreaming of her next sweater, perhaps the Koru by Aroha Knits. The Ewes share some anti-racism resources recommended through the discussion about racism in the yarn community. The Ravelry Thread Racism and Inclusion in the Fiber Community #diversknitty and other hashtags on Instagram where the discussion started and continues Me and White Supremacy, a workbook by Layla F. Saad White Fragility by Robin di Angelo Seeing White, a series on the podcast Scene on Radio Although there was only a little knitting progress, listeners saved the day with some great questions and feedback. Momdiggity asked Marsha about how she splits braids for a combo spin so Marsha talks about that in the episode. The Ewes also had some feedback from the southern hemisphere. Leanne from South Africa shared with us about Knit-a-Square South Africa and the 67 Blankets for Nelson Mandela Day project. Aimee from New Zealand listens on her commute and was finishing up an epic project, her crocheted blanket. Meanwhile, back on the California coast, Stella provided an interesting article by Jilian Moreno about how your knitting style affects your gauge.

Project Updates Marsha continues to work on Slack Tide by Poststitch and is making steady progress. The yarn is Concentric by Hikoo, which is singles that are not pied. It’s very “splitty” and difficult to knit with especially on knit two together, but it’s beautiful fabric. Marsha is waiting for a day to herself to work uninterrupted on Rabbit by Claire Garland. Marsha is also knitting Cloud Cover by Heidi Kirrmaier. It has an unusual construction. Knit yoke, then sleeves, then body, then collar. Marsha has finished first sleeve and started second. She’s still planning for SnowFlower by Heidi Kirrmaier The natural yarn arrived and she’s been thinking about colors. The “snowflower” will be the natural color but the CC can be anything! Marsha has carded a bunch of Wensleydale x Corriedale x Merino cross and has been spinning it. This fleece is a gorgeous dark espresso color! Kelly joined in the Mystery Knit Along with Cozy Up Knits. She’ll be using the Two Ewes Replenish Rambouillet for a 3 color shawl in 5 weeks. She is also participating in the 2019 Herbert Niebling KAL and the Yarniacs Self Indulgent Knit Along with some Niebling lace patterns. Her Glocklein is finished and she is planning for two more of these fun lace patterns. 2018 Statistics of Interest Kelly: 31 projects including 8 pair of socks (4 argyles, 3 slipper socks) and 3 weaving projects Marsha: 13 projects including 5 sweaters and 3 pair of socks.

Kelly finished the Unice Unicorn Hood for her grandniece. She also finished a second pair of Jo’s Perfect Slipper Socks. They are in one of the Western Sky Knits merino cashmere sport weight skeins that she has used for criss-cross colors in argyle socks. This is a perfect gift knit! The bulky-weight, 6-shaft weaving is finished, too. It turned out a little too narrow to be a loom bench cushion so it is now out in the cat’s house as a warm and comfy sleeping pad. It was a great way to sample bulky weaving and the 6-shaft draft and to get used to the Macomber loom. The argyle socks are almost finished. The knitting is done and now the ends need to be woven in and the back of the leg and sides of the foot need to be seamed. Kelly wound warp to make a new weaving project for the 4-shaft table loom. The yarns are fairly thin and the sett will be 24 ends per inch. She plans to use this to warp back to front for the first time as part of the Winter Weave Along. Join in the weaving fun in our weaving discussion on Ravelry. She made a video (click here for part 1 and here for part 2) showing her stash and selection process. Marsha hasn’t made any progress on her scarf, Slack Tide - Poststitch or her Rabbit - Claire Garland. But she has been busy working on her cardigan, Cloud Cover - Heidi Kirrmaier and her “vanilla” socks with Austerman Step with heels and toes in Knit Picks Stroll. Marsha also pulled out a fleece she bought two years ago at the Black Sheep Gathering. It is a 6 pound Wensleydale x Corriedale x Merino cross she split with Kelly. The color is a beautiful dark chocolate espresso bean. Marsha talks about carding the fiber and using her diz for the first time. Marsha also talks about her planning for her next sweater, SnowFlower, a pullover with colorwork and plans for dyeing the contrasting colors. Kelly is planning to join in the Mystery Knit Along with Cozy Up Knits. She’ll be using the Two Ewes Replenish Rambouillet for a 3 color shawl in 5 weeks. Stephany Wilkes has donated a copy of her book Raw Material: Working Wool in the West and the Ewes donated a second. We’ve chosen winners. Check out the episode to see who won! Stephany has another book event at Books Inc. in Berkeley, California on January 8, 2019 at 7 pm. In February she will be speaking at the Treadles to Threads guild meeting February 27 in Contra Costa.
In this episode, the girls do what they do best: chit-chat. Finished Projects Susie finished a test shawl. Current Projects Danie worked on her Kristi Socks and her Daelyn Sweater. Susie worked on her I am Fearless Socks and her Walnut Street Socks. She also started a shawl test knit for Sarah/mrsshoo of Cultivate & Create Designs using Fuse Fiber Studio Fuse Merino Singles in the Snowflower colorway. Enhance the Stash Susie acquired a project bag from Woodberry Stitches, who was in the Abacus Dyeworks (formerly Three Sisters Fiber Co.) booth at ZK, a skein of Suburban Stitcher Sock in the ZK2018 colorway, three skeins of Suburban Stitcher Single Sock in the Whisper, Clean Slate, and Ooooh Honey colorways, and a mug from Lavender Lune Yarn Co. Danie acquired a skein of Leading Men Fiber Arts Spotlight in the You Never Know colorway, a skein of Lavender Lune Yarn Co. 75/25 in the Rare Clouds colorway, and some gorgeous fabrics from Ginny's Fine Fabrics.
Knitting and spinning are so therapeutic for the difficult times in life. They also bring joy and a community that enhances the good times. Join the Ewes in this episode that includes a little of each. Plus, they talk about the Two Ewes Shop and some of their learning experiences with this labor of love connecting local shepherds, mills, and small-batch yarns to knitters and crocheters. If you read these show notes on your podcast app and want to see pictures, go to our complete show notes here. Kelly has two finished projects. She finished the Aztec Cupcake socks made with beautiful Duren Dyeworks yarn using the Slip and Swirl Socks pattern by Kristi of the In a Sknit podcast. The pattern and yarn are a perfect pairing and created this great design. She also finished the black Molly hat for her sister using spirit yarn from Marsha's stash. That leaves her with only one active knitting project, the Indigo Frost poncho. Marsha is also down to one active project. She's almost finished with her Opteka sweater. This is a pattern by Isabell Kraemer and it has an interesting hem detail that was fun to knit. The odd line in the photo is the demarcation between the part that was washed and blocked and the new knitting that has been done since then. Marsha washed and blocked the partially completed sweater to double check that she was getting the same gauge as her washed swatch. Both Marsha and Kelly are thinking about next projects. Kelly is swatching with some deep stash to see if it will work for the Knit it Down sweater. Marsha is thinking about either Vintersol or Snowflower for her next sweater knit. The Ewes are excited about some upcoming events. They will both be at Stitches West, Feb 22-25. Kelly is taking an Argyle class and they will both be spending plenty of time in the market. They will be attending the meet-up in the lobby of the Hyatt (conference center hotel) on Saturday starting at about 2 pm. Marsha is visiting Scotland for the Edinburgh Yarn Festival March 15-17, plus some "fringe events" on Sunday, March 18. There is a podcaster lounge and she'll spend some time there as well as with the enticing vendor exhibits. In April Marsha will return to California for the annual Northern California Knitting Retreat, hosted by the two podcasts the Yarniacs and The 2 Knit Lit Chicks.

Jeff Bayer and a newly clean-shaven Eric D. Snider have much to discuss on this week’s edition of Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider. First up is “Cowboys & Aliens,” which neither gentleman found particularly appealing, although neither of them hated it either. “Crazy Stupid Love,” on the other hand, is a funny and surprising ensemble comedy about love, and how it’s stupid and crazy. Jeff saw “Snow Flower and the Secret Fan” and says you shouldn’t. Nobody saw “The Smurfs,” so whatever. There was some good Question of the Week action regarding items that should be paired up in movies, and a fine edition of Pitch Me involving dames on a submarine. QOTW: In honor of next week’s “Rise of the Planet of the Apes,” what movie would you like to see a prequel to, and why?
