010 – This Bechdel Test Podcast Doesn’t Pass It
| 11. February, 2014

EPISODE_GRAPHIC

Plus David From The Berlin Film Festival!

This week, Katey, Patches and Da7e have heard your cries for more trivia and deliver in a Katey-moderated Patches Vs. Da7e mini-showdown. Elsewhere in the world, David is attending a film festival, The Berlin Film Festival! Possibly with a bag over his head, the not-famous-anymore David will give us a lowdown. Back in NYC, Katey was on a panel discussing the Bechdel Test for movies (two named women characters who talk about something other than a man), if it can be useful or should be discarded as outdated. Patches and Da7e manage not to embarrass their gender too badly.

Review – Dr. Strangelove And How I Learned To Stop Worrying Because Everything Is Awesome
| 7. February, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

Patches, Katey and Da7e Revisit A Comedy Classic!

This week, in celebration of Dr. Strangelove‘s 50th Anniversary, Matt Patches, Katey Rich and Da7e fondly recollect and review Stanley Kubrick’s satire which leads to a discussion on safety in comedy and the wobbly lines that define satire and spoof. After a deep dive into Strangelove, it’s time to quickly mention The Lego Movie and if the villain of the movie is actually Da7e.
