Your hosts had to wait 300 years for a virgin to light a candle. That's right: Helene and Adri are cackling about the iconic film Hocus Pocus (1993) on this episode! Spooky Season wouldn't be the same without touching on this cultural phenomenon. Join your hosts as they tackle feminism, sassy little sisters (favorite genre alert!), witches, immortal cats, sexual awakenings, slutty menswear, virgins, and much more.

Were you obsessed with Harriet the Spy (1996) and Clueless (1995) as a kid? Boy oh boy... do we have great news for you! Get a Clue (2002) is streaming on Disney+ (and in our hearts), as Helene and Adri already know. Join your hosts on a journey through improbable journalistic standards and publishing schedules, questions on how a journalist can afford to live such a luxe life, and wondering what Lexi Gold's mom does for work (because let's be real, she's the real breadwinner in this family). Also, does her mom ever come back from her business trip?

We're getting shipped off to George Washington Military School! Well, not literally, but we're watching the 2002 DCom Cadet Kelly starring the incomparable Hilary Duff at the height of the Lizzie McGuire Era. And what an era that was... Join Helene and Adri as they talk about neurodivergent characters, not being subject matter experts on anything yet still yapping about things anyway, gender norms, and much more.

It's the quintessential coming-of-age story of a boy who begins puberty and finds out that he's actually *checks notes* a merman?! Join Adri and Helene as they gab about the 1999 DCom, The Thirteenth Year. Filled with doppelgangers of actually more famous actors of the time, this gem of a movie also made Helene and Adri wonder... Are there mermaid (merthey/them?) OBGYNs? Is there such a thing as Mer Medical School? Join us on this journey and discover more about the lore this movie implies by giving us a listen.

Join Helene and Adri as they visit 2047 with Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century (1999). Helene and Adri talk about how this 1999 movie shows the future as a still capitalist nightmare where 13 year-olds are master hackers. Are they just born with all these technogical skills? If so, when does this start? Did this 1999 DCom foresee the future? And are we buying it? Give us a listen and find out.

Your hosts are kicking off Season 2 (covering DComs) by re-watching (and talking about) Chat GPT Incarnate, also known as Smart House (1999). Helene and Adri talk about how this film was horny, weirdly prophetic, and possibly the genesis of one of the greatest technological scams of the last ten years, Theranos. Did this 1999 DCom foresee the future? And are we buying it? Give us a listen and find out.

Welcome to the first ever Gummies, also known as the Gummy Awards. As we wrap up our Olsen twins-fueled journey through the past, we are discussing the best (and not so great) moments of the rewatch that we have studiously completed. Hosts Adri and Helene talk about the fashion we couldn’t stop thinking about, who the best parents were in these movies, our favorite (and not so favorite) characters, and all that. They also talk about the media we’ve been consuming, including the Disney+ Percy Jackson series, Sex and the City, their shared love for Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and much more.
