A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 7 Recap with Ro

Monday, September 26, 2022 • Duration 33:58

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 7 Recap with Ro

Amazon Prime's A League of Their Own continues to do well ratings-wise. In this podcast host Amanda Costner is joined by the First Lady of LezCast--Ro (Amanda's wife). The two of them discuss the beats of episode seven, comparing various plotlines to their relationship, like how fun it can be to competitively flirt with someone the way Max flirts with Esther.

Both agree episode 7 is a nice, light-hearted relief from the emotional turmoil that takes place in episode 6. Amanda doesn't understand why Lupe having lost her child would make her be so harsh on Esti, while Roshni explains that Lupe was probably projecting, and having a hard time coming to terms with her past.

Ro and Amanda can't give Jess enough flowers--they love her, they love her as a hot lesbian mechanic, and they love how she orchestrates the talk between Lupe and Esti on the side of the road. The two hosts have a discussion around Charlie and his relationship with Carson--they agree that it was good for the show to not make him a villain, that would be less interesting and less realistic. They also do some fangirling over the Max/Esther relationship. Of course there is talk of Jo/Greta and much more to do with A League of Their Own!

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 6 Recap with KJ Whitehead

VOTE FOR KJ (Keenan Thompson's Ultimate Comedy Experience): https://bit.ly/3TBu05o

LezCast is back recapping episode six of the first season of A League of Their Own! This episode is particularly filled with a lot of emotional turmoil. Both KJ and Amanda discuss how hard and intense it was watching the episode. And with the way things are going in our country, KJ is reminded by the episode that no matter where you fit in, in the LGBTQ+ acronym, you would have been thrown in jail during that time.

Amanda and KJ breakdown the beats of the episode, and of course the consistent referencing of The Wizard of Oz. KJ explains how different black people and white people can view things, and is not surprised when Clance see's Dorothy as the villain of The Wizard of Oz. KJ talks about the intersectionality the show is portraying, and that she didn't expect that necessarily from Abbi Jacobson. Amanda and KJ love the character of Bert. They see him as a smooth, cool, well-dressed cat and KJ brings up how important Bert is to Max's character, and how important representation is in general.

Both hosts are emotional as the ending to episode 6 is discussed. There's a lot of fear, pain and questioning of what will happen next. But one thing is for sure, both hosts agree Rosie O'Donnell's portrayal of Vi was well done, and hope to see more Vi in the future.

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 5 Recap with Nika & Ro

Host Amanda Costner and guest hosts Ro and Nika break down episode 5 of Amazon Prime's A League of Their Own. As usual episode 5 had a lot of content, stories and character development. So it's down to the "dream team" to discuss it all! Nika "the hater" actually loves this series, unlike First Kill, she thinks ALOTO has done a great job developing characters and introducing us to their world.

In this episode, Max goes through a lot dealing with her identity, queerness as well as her relationship with her mother, Toni. Ro and Amanda both relate to the desire to act straight and the fear that comes with realizing you're gay. All three agree the episode addresses the struggles and issues Max faces in a quality way. The trio also discuss the ongoing plotline between Carson and Greta, as well as the frustration Lupe goes through being blamed for last episodes team brawl. Amanda doesn't understand why Lupe has to take the fall, while Nika disagrees and see's some merit in her getting blamed. All three agree there is racism involved with the way Lupe is being treated.

Not only that, but Amy has studied a lot about the history of women in baseball, she points out that the first night game at Wrigley Field was actually played by women.

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 3 Recap with Ida-Ellen Sansom

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 3 Recap with Ida-Ellen Sansom

Every recap host Amanda Costner and a new guest break down the episode, discussing major plot points, characters and storylines. In season one, episode three of Amazon Prime's A League of Their Own, Carson contends with the struggle that is her decision to turn down being more than friends with Greta. Max struggles with juggling two jobs, at one point turning to Leah for help with how to handle her mom and what to do about the Salon. And Clance struggles with how to reveal a major, life-changing letter her and her husband Guy received in the mail.

Throughout the recap both hosts give their unabashed opinions. Ida thinks Greta has been through a situation like the one she's in with Carson before (perhaps even more than once or twice...). Amanda answers a question she'd had in an earlier recap, deciding that, yes, Greta is playing games with Carson. Later in the recap both hosts reveal personal connections they have to the episode--Amanda as a former professional golfer and Ida as someone who had to contend with wanting more.

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 2 Recap with Erin

Thursday, August 18, 2022 • Duration 40:37

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 2 Recap with Erin

Hosts Amanda Costner and Erin recap Amazon Prime's A League of Their Own, episode two. Max is really the star of the second episode of the season--Erin and Amanda both give their takes on why Max is so great. Amanda brings up the fact that Max's character is based off of three African-American women who played baseball in the Negro American League. Erin likes Max and Clance together.

Another interesting character takes the focus in this episode: Vivian Hughes, the wealthy older woman who gives some of the ladies a speech on how she made it to the top, and what she did in order to afford some freedom in a male-dominated world. Erin feels some regret for Greta's character soaking this in so hard, and how it will effect her down the road...

Both hosts have a laugh at the ridiculousness of all the measures the players were made to go through by the owners of the league, like wearing skirts while playing baseball. Amanda acts out the horror in her mind following Erin's answer to why she would never play ball in a skirt.

The episode ends in a pretty GAY fashion--of course this is discussed, analyzed and gushed over. Plus, Erin and Amanda give their overall thoughts on the show so far, and who is standing out to them as a character so far.

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 1 Recap with Ro

Friday, August 12, 2022 • Duration 30:52

A League of Their Own | Season 1 Episode 1 Recap with Ro

Amazon Prime's A League of Their Own stars Abbi Jacobson as a 1940's American woman who hops on a train to Chicago in order to try out for the first ever All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. In this podcast host Amanda Costner is joined by Ro, an avid fan of the show, and Amanda's wife. The two break down the pilot episode of the show, discussing the new characters, plotlines as well as the things that were clear references to the 1992 movie.

Both Ro and Amanda are high on the episode, although Amanda disagrees with Ro that there's nothing missing from the TV show and thinks there's a noticeable difference without all the star power that the movie had. Both discuss being surprised at how queer the opening episode is, and how many cast members appear to be lgbtq.

When discussing the setting and historic nature of the show, both hosts agree it feels special knowing they live in the same city all this was rooted in--with the tryouts being held in Chicago. The character Max interests them both, however in different ways. Ro see's Max as having a lot of grace considering the unfair treatment she's received (Max is not allowed to tryout for the league because she is black). While Amanda views Max as more raw and having trouble containing her frustration for the situation she is in.
