Manage episode 450898703 series 3616803
Megan and Lesley wander down yet ANOTHER long sealed tunnel in their minds to dust off the holiday specials of the 70s and 80s (which were from the 50s?) and an little 90s nostalgia thrown in. Learn about the talent that crosses over generations and genres.
We are back at it with a full-length episode including:
"BS and Hot Gos" aka "Who Died This Week" featuring our love for Teri Garr and her career that ties all the way back to Elvis.
"What Shit are we Sick of This Week?" - THE STATE OF WOMEN'S HEALTHCARE
"GenXpert Not an Expert" - Holiday Specials!* Rudolph, Frosty, Star Wars (Happy Life Day!), Pac-Man, Emmett Otter's Jugband Christmas, He-Man and She-Ra (no lies) and the transition from the annual TV special to on-demand streaming and DVDs and it's impact on the experience of waiting all year long to watch your favorite shows!
*This shows are mostly US based and eurocentric. All except for Emmet Otter - he's an otter and Rudolph is a reindeer, but you get our meaning.
"Five Minutes of Fame" - from GenX Women are Sick of This Shit member Carolyn B. all about filming with Kevin Costner in Yellowstone.
