Binge Me: The Podcast Claire and Kelleigh

Binge Me is getting back to its movie roots this week with a recap of A Quiet Place Part II. John Krasinski makes an exciting return to direct a sequel to the silent-apocalypse-alien thriller that first captivated audiences in 2018. After discussing the oddly "current" timeline that hits a little too close to home, Claire and Kelleigh break down the mysteries behind this film: How did the aliens arrive? Why is no one wearing any shoes? What is Man on Island's real name? They also share their opposing views on the movie's ending, why the synopsis was a little misleading, and the importance of disability inclusion in Hollywood.

Doesn't it just suck when a TV show you love gets canceled? Claire and Kelleigh mourn the top series that were cut too soon, from throwbacks like Zoo and Pushing Daisies to recent ones like Manifest and Lovecraft Country. They also discuss the movie career of Lee Pace, Steven Spielberg's possible dinosaur obsession, and Timothy Olyphant vs. Josh Duhamel. Plus, Claire unknowingly breaks some bad news to Kelleigh about more canceled shows this year. Is nothing sacred anymore?!
