Ladies of Nerditude Ladies of Nerditude

Well, listeners, the time has come for the Ladies to say “bye (for now)” and travel some new roads. The last seven years have seen us through all sorts of ups, downs, conventions, new fandoms, and baking mishaps. Join as as we look back before moving forward.

Seven years of episodes and yet the Ladies have never talked about The Legend of Sleepy Hollow? Time to fix that. From the early colonial tale by Washington Irving to the Horseman making appearances in recently released books, we cover the timeline and scope of this beloved American (and perhaps British) tale. *SPOILERS* for various versions of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow including the original short story, the Disney movie, and the 1999 TIm Burton film.

Baking is art, and for those of us who can’t do, we like to stare in awe. With cooler temperatures outside come pastries hot out of the oven and all of the baking shows that are Halloween-themed. Let’s discuss (and maybe try to figure out why our brownies never come out right).

After years of waiting, fans were given a new season of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett’s creation “Good Omens” on Amazon Prime. Venturing away from the original material, Aziraphale and Crowley are now free agents who can live as they see fit. That is, until a former archangel shows up with no memory. This supersized episode should be approached with an open mind, as it deals with themes of religion, sexuality, gender, and similar. *SPOILERS* for the book and Seasons 1 and 2 of the show

Disney returns to the cinema with another take on their ride: The Haunted Mansion. Starring LaKeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Owen Wilson, Danny DeVito and others, this star-packed film may be spooky- but not for the right reasons. *SPOILERS* for all versions of The Haunted Mansion, including the rides

This summer’s (nearly) unexpected smash hit “Barbie”, directed by Greta Gerwig, has breathed new life into Mattel’s world. With a diverse cast of Barbies and Kens (and one Allan), Barbieland is near Utopia. So what happens when Stereotypical Barbie starts to have dark thoughts? It’s time to head to the Real World for answers! What could go wrong? *SPOILERS* for Barbie
