    Episode 16 - Love is Blind Italy S1 - I Can't Tell When You're Drunk in a Different Language

    Peter and Amanda finally deliver on our promise to cover Love is Blind Italy Season 1, and we have a lot of thoughts. After battling the "mutant flu" and getting back on track, we discuss every couple from this Italian adventure—and spoiler alert: we think this might be one of the best international Love is Blind seasons yet. We talk about why Italian women earned our respect for absolutely refusing to take anyone's nonsense, discuss some wild cultural observations (why is everyone wearing white?), and share our honest takes on each relationship from the pods to the altar to the reunion. We've got mismatched couples, heartbreaking near-misses, theatrical villains who dress like Hamilton, a man we can only describe as "a thumb," and one love story so pure it restored our faith in the entire franchise. Along the way, we get into some unexpected territory—the language barrier when it comes to detecting drunk behavior, the great debate over standing versus sitting when men pee, and what other Love is Blind international editions have taught us about how different cultures approach sex and relationships. Whether you've already binged this season or you're looking for a sign to start, come hang out on the couch with us.

    Episode 14 - Squid Game: The Challenge S2/Wicked: For Good - Life Is a Squid Game (Also We Saw Wicked)

    After a week of sickness and migraines, we're back to wrap up Squid Game: The Challenge Season 2 and gush about Wicked (no spoiler warning can save you from our obsession, but this is your warning nonetheless). We break down the final episodes of Squid Game, including the marbles betrayal, why you should never admit you're a millionaire on reality TV, and the most frustrating self-sacrifice in game show history. We discuss New York's rock-paper-scissors obsession and subsequent toddler tantrum, analyze the Chutes and Ladders drama between Stephen and Perla, and share our thoughts on Deja's controversial elimination in the final challenge. Then we pivot to our year-long Wicked anticipation finally paying off, comparing the movie to the musical, debating whether it needed to be split into two films, and praising Cynthia Erivo for somehow improving on perfection. We discuss the new songs that didn't need to exist, why Jonathan Bailey's Fiero finally made us care, and how Peter went from Wicked skeptic to buying out the entire merch stand. Plus, we share the unhinged TikTok comment telling us we need our heads examined for liking "wicked" things and tease a potential new segment about the wild insults Amanda receives online.

    Episode 10 - Better Late Than Single S1 - You Can Go from 1 to 10, but You Can't Go from 0 to 1

    Peter and Amanda check out a new series on Netflix called Better Late Than Single, a South Korean dating show featuring "eternal singles" - people who have never dated before. We break down why this might be the dating show of the year for Peter. We discuss the refreshing differences between Korean and American dating shows, particularly the lack of pressure to get married in three weeks. We analyze the painful love circles where everyone likes someone who doesn't like them back, including one contestant's desperate attempt to hide in the grass when confronted. We examine the competitive drinking disaster that ruined a double date, the three-hour conversation that suffocated any chance at romance, and the shocking reversal that left everyone stunned. We share our thoughts on the contestant who received devastating online hate despite seeming genuinely well-intentioned, discuss the multiple support groups formed by women pursuing the same man, and laugh about the contestant who chose food over heartbreak. We gush over the Cupids - the mentors whose commentary made the show - and their perfect reactions to every cringe moment. We explore cultural differences in physical affection, the importance of remembering deeply personal confessions, and why one contestant's savior complex may have influenced his choices. Plus, we attempt (and fail spectacularly) to pronounce everyone's names correctly and discuss why this show left us feeling good unlike other dating shows we've covered.
