Episode Epiphanies Episode Epiphanies

In this episode, Natasha makes Jessica watch the pilot of Gangsta, an anime that is less about gangs than its title would suggest. We discuss the weird way this show represents women, the difference between the sub and the dub, and how Worick & Nicolas come off in the pilot versus how their characters develop throughout the show. Additionally, we dive into the real central plot point of this show: soup. Will Jessica decide to join up? Or will she resist the criminal life? You'll have to listen to find out.

This week, Jessica makes Natasha watch Ginny & Georgia, a teen drama that is also... a crime show? We discuss this show's fantastic use of flashbacks, the way Georgia and Ginny parallel each other, and the use of passion vs. power. Will Natasha exercise their power to say no to this show? Or will the passion pull them in? You'll have to listen to find out.

This week on Episode Epiphanies, Natasha makes Jessica watch Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, a Scott Pilgrim cartoon about... Scott Pilgrim. (We do spoil the plot of this show in a pretty big way, so warnings all around.) We discuss Ramona's reputation as a manic pixie dream girl, Scott's questionably platonic bed-sharing with Wallace, and Netflix's hot guy algorithm. (Netflix thinks I am a Gen Z teen given what it's serving up as "hot guys.") Finally, we invent the newest spin-off in the Scott Pilgrim universe -- a Scott Pilgrim dating sim where you must date all of Ramona's evil exes. Does this make sense? Probably not. Am I going to dedicate the rest of my life to making it a reality? 100%. Will Jessica commit to dating this show's seven evil exes? Or will she take off? You'll have to listen to find out.

This week, Jessica makes Natasha watch Wings, a super nostalgic sitcom from the 90s and a Cheers spinoff! We discuss how the jokes in this show are dated but not so much that we wouldn't still hear them today, how darling little sitcoms like this are just here for the vibes, and the many, many references in this episode that went over our heads. Who are these people? What did they do? We may never know. Will Natasha like the vibes? Or will they take a flight away from this little airport town?

This week on Episode Epiphanies, Natasha makes Jessica watch Fionna and Cake, an Adventure Time spin-off that is somehow not a nightmare realm. Listen to us chat about the extremely accurate depiction of Millennial/Gen Z work life, casual gossip about your office coworkers, how to teach a horse to sit, and the extreme Mood of this episode. It is bliss not to be plagued by nightmares after watching this show and, instead, to feel very seen by these writers. Will Jessica give up on her Adventure-Time-hating ways and watch Fionna and Cake? Or will the hellscape drag her down in the end? You'll have to listen to find out.

This week, Jessica makes Natasha watch One Tree Hill, a show that is ostensibly a Shakespeare soap opera about basketball. (How I wish that was a joke.) Join us as we discuss the epic highs and lows of high school basketball (yes, I know this is the wrong show), how much we hate Dan Scott (the years may pass, but my hatred for Dan does not), and the whole gamut of relationship drama in this show. Will Natasha get their head in the game? Or will the epic lows of high school basketball get them down? You'll have to listen to find out.
