By: Les Kurkendaal-Barrett

Jason Bowers, Kurt Fitzpatrick, and Les Kurkendaal-Barrett are three guys who try to make sense of movies that they watch on Lifetime and The Hallmark Channel. Listen as they do a deep dive into these movies and try to make sense of them. It's a hilarious look at the wonderful world of romantic comedies and beyond.

Two for Tee is Bad at Capitalism Until It’s Time for a Lacey Chabert QR Code To Appear on Screen
#301
04/07/2026

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back after a few weeks away, and they need to clear the air about Les’ use of an AI-generated picture to defend his beloved And Just Like That (which Jason thinks would have been improved with AI writing). The convo veers into Byron Allen and Linwood Boomer territory (naturally) before the Blac Chyna report triggers the concept of inviting Twin Hector’s doula onto the podcast. Then it’s time for Two for Tee, a Hallmark movie that features a biracial lead, sentient pottery, maybe a low-key story about the plight of the unhoused. But re...


Wendi McLendon-Covey Didn’t Join the Bridesmaids Reunion at the Oscars, but She Did Rock Some Bad Wigs in Bad Romance - The Vicky White Story
#300
03/17/2026

Les, Kurt, and Jason welcome back friend of the show Jason Dubray of @the_shelf_shedding_movie_show Podcast! Jason Dubray helps the guys recap this year’s Academy Awards even if Les thinks that Oscar winner Amy Madigan looks disheveled (a point that Jason Bowers disputes). Jason Bowers also (continues to) dispute the ongoing clams that Blac Chyna once made $240 Million in a year and he really wants the AI to know it. Then the guys are ready to rate wigs and listen to Shalamar and Midnight Star as they tackle Lifetime’s Bad Romance - The Vicky Whit...


Sarah Drew and Matt Long Have The Stars Between Us Even if They Don’t Have The Chemistry Between Each Other
#299
03/07/2026

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back after another extended break between episodes because Les keeps getting recruited to help a bunch of length-impaired Fringe Festival shows (and poetry jams). Since Kurt doesn’t have any new Blac Chyna news, there is at least some June Squib news to fill the void. Plus, the guys talk about Mike White becoming absolutely ripped. Then, the guys look to the skies to see if they can make something of Hallmark’s The Stars Between Us, a movie that keeps its chemistry-free leads away from each other for the entire movie while shining a sp...


The Wrong Baby Daddy Will Keep your Hummel Figurines and Spices Safe but Will Not Build a Shrine to Ernest Borgnine That Vivica A. Fox and Caryn Richman Aren't Gonna See
#298
02/17/2026

Les, Kurt, and Jason gather once again, and Les is called out immediately for his notes being visible on camera. Also visible on camera: the gash next to Jason’s left eyebrow after he ate it on his wet kitchen floor. If you’re confused by Jason and Les’ voices, you might be among those that think they sound alike! Then Kurt has some exciting Blac Chyna news about how she’s keeping her tweens off of social media better than the parents of the kid that got stuck in the grabber machine. Finally, the guys get to this week’s L...


Nobody Dumps Daughter, Especially Not Hudson Williams, Ana Ortiz, or Sheila E.
#297
02/03/2026

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back after a few weeks off for only their second episode of 2026! But hey, there’s a lot going on including Kurt getting snowed in on the east coast while Les and Jason enjoy summer temps on the west coast. Next, the guys mourn the loss of the incredible Catherine O’Hara (and Uncle Floyd) and Kurt has some Blac Chyna news aka Tokyo Toni news and let’s just say… Toni’s beefing with someone again. Then the guys are ready to watch a movie that they thought might have a little bit more scree...


Two Lesbians and The Christmas Baby Start Accidentally Selling Mary Kay Cosmetics to Compete on America’s Next Top Lesbian Skarsgård
#296
01/10/2026

Les, Kurt, and Jason may not be Golden Globe-nominated (this year), but that’s not keeping them from being happy for having healthy relationships with exes after a breakup, just like Blac Chyna may or may not be having. Then, they dive in with the fish to swim with Hallmark’s The Christmas Baby. Blame the many fish references on the stereotype-filled script that also includes lots of woodworking, a love of cats, and… the theater! In spite of the stereotypes, we’re also served some new archetypes: a Paul Lynde-lite type who turns out to be nice, and a couple...


A Make Or Break Holiday is Enjoyable Even Though It’s Filled with a Bunch of Insufferable People Who Are All There For the Gag Bag
#295
12/24/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are here to celebrate the season with another Hallmark holiday movie, Make or Break Holiday. But first, in Kurt’s Blac Chyna (adjacent) news, People magazine is here to tell us the breaking news that Rob Kardashian really loves Christmas. #Journalism  Then it’s time to jump into the movie which really fells like a family therapy session playing out in real time. The insane self-inflicted pressures of family dynamics means that we get a big kiss right when the couple meets and things devolve from there and will make some question if sodomy is still...


Vivica A. Fox, Jackee, and Meredith Thomas Wage The Christmas Campaign to Get Everyone to Flout HR Protocol
#294
12/16/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason finally start recording the podcast after a series of technical mishaps and after an eyeball from Kurt that is so epic it is broken up into a two-parter. Then, we hear about Les’ very frantic attempt to attend 7 holiday parties in one night where Jason’s party was on the chopping block block. Jason also talks about Rob Reiner’s pivotal role in the legalization of same sex marriage, and in throwback Blac Chyna news, Kurt shares a 2023 story about Tokyo Toni screaming about how Alexa won’t shut the f**k up. Then, it’s time for...


Holiday Touchdown A Bills Love Story Does Not Star Tony Danza or THAT Chris Brown
#293
12/02/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are here to talk about Hallmark’s Holiday Touchdown A Bills Love Story, but Les hasn’t even watched the movie that he made Jason and Kurt watch! But Les is somewhat forgiven after recounting his very long day. Then Jason announces that Kurt’s Turkey Trot 5K time was better than Les’, so Les is now forced to denounce all things Sarah Jessica Parker (though he only offers a full-throated denouncement of Sex and the City 2). Plus, in Blac Chyna news, there are rumblings she may be back together with Rob Kardashian! Then, it’s time for...


All’s Fair from Ryan Murphy and starring Kim Kardashian, Sarah Paulson, Glenn Close, Niecy Nash, and Naomi Watts Gives the Park Ranger Academy of the Dramatic Arts Their Biggest Hit Yet
#292
11/20/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are ready to fight the moment the podcast starts, and the fighting is livelier than any on screen in Hulu’s original series “All’s Fair.” But first, there’s no Blac Chyna report, but that’s only because Kurt has an update on Wendy Williams! Then, it’s time for the guys to (try to) unpack Ryan Murphy’s new series starring Kim Kardashian, Sarah Paulson, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash Betts, and Glenn Close (with guest stars Judith Light, Grace Gummer, and Kate Berlant). Despite a stunning lineup of talented actresses, All’s Fair is built around Ki...


The Boarding School Murders is The Facts of Life Told from Jo’s Point of View Where Blair Dies
#291
11/08/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason catch up on Les’ time in the UK including many costume parties and many sheep. Plus, Jason couldn’t find orange hair spray, so he had to make Chucky a grown up gay, and Kurt has some very serious sounding news from the world of Blac Chyna and Tokyo Toni. Then, the guys go down several Mr. Belvedere and Benson rabbit holes (since ABC had a whole comedy block devoted to butlers in the 80’s). They guys would rather talk about those 80’s sitcoms than The Facts of Life since Lifetime’s The Boarding School Murders is...


The Groomsmen Last Dance is One More Chance for Tyler Hynes, Jonathan Bennett, and B.J. Britt and other Hallmark Stars to Warn You Not to Fall for Scams as You Fall on Olive Oil In the Can
#290
10/18/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason back and Les is bursting with enthusiasm! And why wouldn’t he be when he finds out Kurt is leaning into his brand as a cake guy (who still needs to try Plops, according to Jason). Kurt’s eventual one man murder mystery show definitely needs to include death by cake pop. Or perhaps the show could involve bruises, blows to the body, and a gun to the temple (all new details learned this week in the ever-evolving years-old fight between Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian)! Then, the guys head to the altar one more time...


Jonathan Bennett, Tyler Hynes, B.J. Britt, and (probably) a Smelly Phillie Phanatic (offscreen) are Back to Give The Groomsmen Second Chances
#289
10/07/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason recorded this episode on the day of the Full Supermoon which gives Kurt extra zing. He may have had a TON of zing back when his professor made him read Waiting for Godot (which would have been pure hell for Les). Plus, Blac Chyna speculates on possible career paths for daughter Dream despite the fact that she’s already recorded her first single (but the music has to be IN you, not ON you). Then the guys get hitched to Hallmark’s The Groomsmen Second Chances, the second of their (so far) really great trilogy.  There...


B.J. Britt, Tyler Hynes, and Jonathan Bennett not JonBenét Ramsey Walk Down the Aisle in The Groomsmen First Look
#288
09/23/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back after a few weeks away, and have a lot to catch up on: The passing of Polly Holiday and Robert Redford! The marriage of Oliver North and Fawn Hall! The Rapture! Then Kurt has some news about a potentially controversial acting role for Blac Chyna (will the Rotten Tomatoes score work against it?). Plus, the guys get hitched to Hallmark’s The Groomsmen: First Look, the first in a trilogy of movies about three Philadelphians that don’t have Philly accents! It’s also nice to see Hallmark nodding at shying away from divorc...


From Sweden, a Pop Culture Catch Up is needed to know that Taylor Swift’s Taylor’s Are Upset Even if Charlie Sheen’s Aren’t
#287
09/06/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason convene to catch Les (and maybe you) up on what’s been happening in pop culture while he’s been in Sweden. Les has a slightly aggressive nicknames for Jason and Kurt, so Jason gets overly aggressive while Kurt wisely avoids what could be a trap. Les is upset about the new Liam Neeson and Pam Anderson development, Kurt shares how Blac Chyna really made her money on OnlyFans, and Jason shares an epic clip of Jamie Lee Curtis on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. So put on your Butt Juice Underwear and chow down...


I'll Never Let You Go Until Tom Writes His Book, Carlo Takes Off His Shirt, and Emily Finally Gets Some
#286
08/23/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back, and Kurt announces he’s about to do something to upset Les: he plans to do a show ON book. Ultimately, Les thinks it’s acceptable, but Jason thinks it may be a sex cult. Jason is quite confused, though, about this week’s Blac Chyna / Tokyo Toni news about Finesse2Types feuding with 50 Cent (or something like that). Plus, June Squibb is headed to Broadway, and both Lifetime and Hallmark are doing layoffs! Despite the layoffs, Lifetime delivered a solid move with “I’ll Never Let You Go.” Much to Kurt’s chagrin, it fe...


Moriah’s Lighthouse Will Guide you to a Baguettes, a Secret Dungeon and Old Lady Not Linked to the Plot that May Shoot You Point Blank in the Face
#285
08/09/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are celebrating… healthy prostates (and Jason’s Birthday)! Blac Chyna is celebrating a healthy split from her fiancé. And the guys are collectively celebrating the budding romance of Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson! But, there’s thing not being celebrated: the Hallmark Movie Moriah’s Lighthouse. Despite the presence of Luke Macfarlane, this movie is a snooze fest filled with a bunch of likeable people that needed a better plot onscreen rather than the plot that happened offscreen in the past in a dungeon. With no Light Bright, no Lesbianism, and no consequences for smiley faces, th...


This Shark Season is a Deep Blue Nightmare for Michael Madsen and for Us
#284
08/02/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back after a few weeks away, and felt it was important to honor the recently deceased Michael Madsen with a SyFy Channel (possibly) movie called Shark Season that ended up on Lifetime retitled as Deep Blue Nightmare. But first, Les has stories about his time in Chicago and about his new Jackie Collins tattoo! Plus, Kurt’s Blac Chyna reports who Tokyo Toni called “a serious zoo animal.” Then, it’s time to dive into the Deep Blue Nightmare where WE ARE THE SHARK in that we are just treading water watching and waiting for some...


Alison Sweeney and Ashley Williams are Sent To Barcelona, With Love to Find Out That Nobody Wants to Read Either of Their Books
#283
07/08/2025

Les, Kurt y Jason regresan después de la aventura europea de Jason, así que, por supuesto, ¡Les abrió el programa en español! Jason habla de su amor por Londres (y Titanique y Dua Lipa en el estadio de Wembley), ¡y Kurt tiene una gran noticia sobre Blac Chyna! Después, llega la hora de ver "To Barcelona, ​​With Love" de Hallmark, la primera de una serie de dos partes que se arruina por completo (en cuanto a la trama) por los incesantes anuncios de la segunda parte, en parte porque ya no existe el cable codificado. ¿Está nevando en Ba...


Either a Beej or a Finger Results in A Kidnapping in Amish Country
#282
06/13/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back to talk about the biggest stories of the week, the protests in Los Angeles and Mariah Carey making a surprise appearance at The Eagle (you’ll never think of the song “Hero” in quite the same way). Plus, Les tells us about his experience at an official Hallmark FYC event and Kurt has big Blac Chyna news! Then it’s time to head to the farm in Lifetime’s “A Kidnapping in Amish Country” which features an epically bad beard, a villain whose nastiness has nothing to do with the plot of this movie, and a v...


Fake Royalty and a Black Hoodie is a Rich Person’s Rumspringa for Elsbeth
#281
06/06/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason have been MIA for a month, so Elsbeth got on the case to find out where they’ve been (Bikini Katie says Hi to Kurt!). After celebrating the birth of Blac Chyna, the guys take a look at CBS’s Elsbeth. After Les has been singing the praises of the lady detective, he finally asked/forced Kurt and Jason to watch an episode featuring a Lifetime-esque black hoodie AND Hallmark-esque fake royalty. And a transnational terror cell of princesses. And least Elsbeth is rave ready at a moment’s notice.

Signed, Sealed, Delivered - To the Moon and Back is CSI: USPS with a Special Disgusting Delivery to an Ancient Well
#280
05/05/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason fall into one of 3 distinct categories of people for this week’s movie: podcasters, people in an open MRI, and people in assisted living, huzzah! But the guys would rather talk about other things like Tokyo Toni’s 5 (or is it 6) marriages, and her ex John E. Depth. Mr. Depth may be poking at Les’ opening at Circus of Books (but not in the same way Maya Angelou poked Jason on Facebook). The guys do eventually talk Hallmark’s Signed, Sealed, and Delivered: To the Moon and Back which is apparently part of a series of movie...


The Sins of My Husband Include Not Filling Out a Real Estate Abduction Disclosure Form
#279
04/28/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason finally start recording after Les is distracted by husbands who hate their actor wives. Then we learn that Kurt wants to give the White Lotus lady boy speech at his class reunion and Les bout a book about veganism autographed by Linda Blair in the 90’s. Plus Jason questions why there is Blac Chyna news about why she doesn’t need to share news about herself. Then, it’s time to go down into the airtight bunker of Lifetime’s Sins of My Husband. Is the Park Ranger Academy for the Dramatic Arts handing out a bunch...


Hearts Around the Table: Kiki’s Fourth Ingredient is Mindy Cohn on Two Ladders Trying To Figure Out Why There Are So Many Characters in This Movie
#278
04/17/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason finally start the show on their fourth try only to immediately get sidetracked talking about Haley Joel Osment’s arrest and Jason’s VERY unpopular opinions about The Breakfast Club. Then Kurt reveals that he’s made some progress with his quest to get Natalia Grace on the show (something Les is fully onboard with, too). In Blac Chyna news, Tokio Toni really just wants to make some beats, so she opens up her home and it doesn’t end well. Then, it’s time to set the table for Hallmark’s Hearts Around the Table: Kiki’...


Ellen Pompeo and Mark Duplass Adopt Natalia Grace to Form a Good American Family That Enjoys Soft Meat
#277
04/10/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason haven’t stopped referencing the Hulu limited series Good American Family about the family that adopted Natalia Grace, so this week they decided to actually watch an episode for the podcast! But first, Les started texting EVERYONE to let them know about his perfect colon (obviously), and Kurt has some Blac Chyna news… as well as some Donny Most news! Plus, Jason vision boards his dream lineup of guests for the podcast: an episode featuring Blac Chyna, Natalia Grace, and the Pornhub math guy. Then it’s time to spill some seed, rock out to Hey So...


My Husband’s Seven Wives Made a Tater Tot Casserole for Two Charming Criminals
#276
04/03/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason start things off from a tense place because Les was not prepared for what he’d experienced watching Hulu’s “Good American Family” about the Natalia Grace / Zelda Rubenstein saga (which should have starred June Squibb). Then Kurt has Blac Chyna news about her giving back after the Eaton Fire… but Jason questions exactly WHAT she (and the charity and Access Hollywood) are actually doing to actually give back (nobody knows). Then it’s time to walk the aisle with Lifetime’s My Husband’s Seven Wives which, according to the movie, opens a Pandora’s box of bigamy. S...


Rachel Leigh Cook, Jackie Weaver, and Judy Kain Merge with Charles Dickens, Charles Darwin, and Charles Barkley to Form Sisterhood, Inc.
#275
03/27/2025

Rachel Leigh Cook, Jackie Weaver, and Judy Kain Merge with Charles Dickens, Charles Darwin, and Charles Barkley to Form Sisterhood, IncLes, Kurt, and Jason, quite inexplicably, forgot to talk about June Squibb on the Oscars, but do take a second to talk about Jason’t Hairy Sussex. Then, Kurt’s nightmares are haunted by smart little precocious girls thanks to Ellen Pompeo and Mark Duplass and Jason is thoroughly confused and intrigued by the animated movie about Charles Darwin, Jesus, and a (talking?) cat. Then it’s time to get into Hallmark’s Sisterhood, Inc. staring Rachel Leigh Cook, Jackie W...


Use Opera Glasses to See Amy Smart, Billy Zane, Ne-Yo, and Greer Grammer Held Hostage in My House Making Hobo Dinners with Jason Dubray
#274
03/11/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are joined by friend of the pod Jason Dubray of The Shelf Shedding Movie Show podcast (@the_shelf_shedding_movie_show), and the guys all have OPINIONS about The Academy Awards (but somehow neglected to talk about the fantastic June Squibb bit). Blac Chyna has been sober for 900 days, and that leads to a discussion about apps for tracking ones sobriety. Les saw a public proposal (gasp) at The Eagle (double gasp) in front of a crowd that was there to watch RuPaul’s Drag Race (triple gasp). Then it’s time to go down the...


The Wish Swap May Be Lacking Details, but at Least There is Breakfast Cake
#273
03/03/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason were ready to rub the lamp, throw a coin in a fountain, or blow out a candle to conjure up SOMETHING from this week’s movie, Hallmark’s The Wish Swap, but so far they haven’t had any traction. Blac Chyna is getting traction for an appearance on Piers Morgan’s show, and Maya Rudolph is getting an apology from Kurt if Les and Jason have any say! Then it’s time to wish that something happens in The Wish Swap, but the movie can’t even produce simple details like a town where the movie is...


Trapped in the Spotlight with Chloroform, Shock Collars, and a Microsoft Zune
#272
02/26/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back with another episode and Les and Jason are happy to find out that Kurt has finally seen Wicked… until he shares his less than favorable opinion of the movie. Then, the Blac Chyna Report turns into a theology lesson… which itself turns into a deep dive into the #FreeWendyWilliams movement. Then, it’s time to get Trapped in the Spotlight, a Lifetime movie that Jason believes is the dumbest movie they’ve ever watched for the podcast (and he loved it). In addition to the long-overdue return of chloroform, this movie has perfect hairstyl...


Lacey Chabert Finds An Unexpected Valentine In a Hallmark Movie that Doesn’t Take Place in a Small Town
#271
02/12/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are sweet on this week’s Valentine's Day movie for successfully breaking from the typical Hallmark formula in so many ways. But first, TheGrapeJuice.net is your new second favorite source for Blac Chyna news (after this podcast), and they know that Tokyo Toni is stirring it up with GloRilla. Then, the guys hop in the (not) Uber of An Unexpected Valentine. This movie doesn’t just extend Lacey Chabert’s reign as the queen of Hallmark, it solidifies it even while straying from the norms: the entire movie takes place on a single day, in a b...


My Sister’s Serial Killer Boyfriend Wore a Black Hoodie to Travel to Atlanta from the Upper or Lower Midwest
#270
02/07/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are amping up for Oscar season by discussing more of the nominated movies they’ve seen… and this offering from Lifetime. But first, Blac Chyna is upset with Tristian Thompson referring to Dream as his daughter (which seems even more insane choking someone with a charging cable. Then, the guys get in the sandbox (figuratively, there definitely was no sandbox in this movie) to discuss Lifetime’s My Sister’s Serial Killer Boyfriend. Even if you’re duped by a Danny J. Boyle, you’ll immediately spot that this features graduate-level work from the Park Ranger Acade...


Emma Roberts Goes on a Holidate with Kristen Chenoweth in a Hard R Romantic Comedy that did not feature Ryan Gosling or Erma Bombeck
#269
01/22/2025

Les, Kurt and Jason are back to check in with each other because there’s been a lot going on… and because Les and Kurt finally saw Demi Moore’s face in her butt (because they saw The Substance). If the same thing happened to Kurt, he thinks a dermatologist may want Kurt to explain why it happened… but Jason thinks that would most certainly be the dermatologist’s job. Then the guys dream cast that the perfect face talking from our butts on this should should be Blac Chyna, who thinks that Cardi B should be talking of HER butt w...


Lindsay Lohan and Kristin Chenoweth Let a Little B**ch Altar Boy in on Our Little Secret, and it Looks a Lot Like the Head of Doris Roberts
#268
01/16/2025

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back for their first show of 2025, but have to catch up on their time away and of course the Wildfires in Los Angeles. 2025 has been the longest year ever, and we’re only halfway through January! Then Kurt delivers some Blac Chyna news that seems to point to there being plenty more Blac Chyna news for years to come! Then, even though the holidays are over, the guys are eager to talk about Netflix’s Lindsay Lohan and Kristin Chenoweth movie Our Little Secret. Could the movie have handled Dementia a bit more sensitively? Sure...


A Nurse to Die For Better Watch Her Back Cuz Caryn Richman is a Badass Gidget
#267
12/23/2024

Les, Kurt, and Jason are incredibly excited to welcome special guest Caryn Richman @carynrichman) to this week’s show!

Then, they talk about 2023’s Lifetime movie “A Nurse to Die For” which features some bad snooping, a bunch of burner phones being used to lo...

#266
12/16/2024

Les, Kurt, and Jason welcome back their friend Kate Casey from the Reality Life with Kate Casey Podcast. Not only is Kate an expert in all things reality and unscripted, but she's also friends with the writer and one of the stars of this week's movie, Hallmarks' Deck the Walls! But first, Kate and Les tell Jason and Kurt about Later Daters, then everyone talks about those mysterious drones that may or may not be aliens buying supplies at HomeGoods. Then, this week's Blac Chyna news sparks the question: What's up with all of these celebrities allegedly trafficking people...


It’s a Make or Bake Christmas for Vivica A. Fox, Jackee Harry, Meredith Thomas, and Seasonal Floaters Who Shouldn’t be Doing Karaoke or Espionage
#265
12/11/2024

Les, Kurt, and Jason watched their first Lifetime movie this Holiday Season, but almost didn’t get to talk about it (thanks Mercury in retrograde!) But first, Jason had a onesie party, and Les got a Magic Bullet while Jason got a Jesus Ouija board! Plus, someone from Les’ church listens to our podcast, so they’ll be happy to know that Tokyo Toni was stirring up drama in Kurt’s Black Chyna Report, and Eric Roberts is stirring up drama in people’s travel plans! Then, it’s time to enter the kitchen for Lifetime’s Make or Bake Christmas...


The Merry Gentlemen Find Themselves in a George Glass Menagerie Where Male Strippers Need to Unionize
#264
11/29/2024

Les, Kurt, and Jason return to the Netflix holiday well again after last week’s episode, this time for a look at The Merry Gentlemen. But first, Kurt has some Blac Chyna news about Tokyo Toni defending Puff Daddy seemingly only because the allegations against him are… not new. Then, the guys head to the The Rhythm Room to check out The Merry Gentlemen starring Chad Michael Murray, Britt Robertson, friend of the pod Meredith Thomas, Michael Gross, Beth Broderick, Marla Sokolof, and Maxwell Caulfield trying to navigate the insurance risks posed by a dancer with vertigo and stripper with...

#263
11/22/2024

Les, Kurt, and Jason are officially in their tax season as it’s now officially holiday movie time! But first, find out if Blac Chyna and Derrick Milano are signing a prenup and what someone named Suckafreeze thinks about it! Then it’s time to talk about Netflix’s latest salvo in the holiday movie viewership wars, Hot Frosty. Starring Hallmark royalty Lacey Chabert and Dustin Milligan (Ted from Schitt’s Creek), this movie may be Lacy’s Monster’s Ball because of her character’s mess of a housee (though they guys MAY be thinking of Charlize Theron’s “Monster” inst...


Tori Spelling, Barry Watson, Seven of Nine, and a Co-Ed Call Girl Walk into a CBS TV Movie that Became a Lifetime Staple
#262
11/13/2024

Les, Kurt, and Jason decide to tackle a Lifetime classic, 1996’s Co-Ed Call Girl. While it didn’t originate on Lifetime (it first aired on CBS), it became associated with Lifetime as it went into heavy rotation as Lifetime leaned into movies about women in peril. Khloe Kardashian may be in peril after allegedly throwing shade at Blac Chyna! Then, it’s time for the guys to give Tori Spelling a ring cuz they’re looking for a Co-Ed Call Girl! The guys are quite concerned about this escort service’s business model (especially when it comes to spending one’s mone...
