Join Kara and Spenser as we try to understand the nature of obsessions as well as hype for or against media.

    Taskmaster Part 1: Competitive Creativity (ep. 15)

    This week we discuss one of our new favorite things: A little British show called Taskmaster. Kara and Spenser decide to rank the seasons through an in-depth discussion, which reveals a horrifying truth about one of them being a bit more competitive than you would think. instagram: @werenotevenfans

    Hoodwinked! is the Greatest Film of All Time (ep. 14)

    We're baaaack! For the new year, Kara and Spenser decide to talk about Hoodwinked!, a movie from their childhood that really laid the groundwork for having a niche passion and obsession. From childhood and until now both have held this movie in the highest regard, even though it is a children's comedy Whodunnit animation... What more could you want? Oh yes, how about Kara's burp to make it into the final edit? You can have that, too, as a treat. https://www.instagram.com/werenotevenfans

    Iron Man vs. A Christmas Prince: The Same Trilogy? (REPOST)

    Happy holidays, your gift is what you got last year! This week, we decided to have Christmas in September and watch Netflix's 'A Christmas Prince' trilogy instead of a Marvel movie for the third time. What really shocked us was how many similarities there were between these Rom-Com/Hallmark-style movies and our favorite Marvel trilogy: the three Iron Mans. As we get into the weird coincidences of the two, we also start to discuss Thor and C*ptain Am*rica as their own trilogies, and how they all reflect similar patterns. Two genres that usually are not considered as companions are no match for Spenser and Kara on this journey to complete enlightenment on every popular or sub-genre movie. Instagram: @werenotevenfans

    Projecting onto Kids Movies: Master of Disguise (ep. 13)

    On this week's episode, we discuss one of Spenser's favorite movies from childhood: Master of Disguise. This movie is considered the "worst of all-time" by some, but Spenser's passion for it says otherwise. Sit tight as we get sidetracked talking about childhood, and being widely misunderstood by society... And a little about the movie, too. Instagram: @werenotevenfans

    We love British Comedy & James Acaster ft. Noelle C. Sacher (Ep. 12)

    This week it's time to take a deep dive into an entirely new topic for the podcast: British comedy and panel shows. With special guest Noelle C. Sacher, Kara and Spenser talk at length about a new obsession that seems entirely out of nowhere, but really might be part of our roots. We discuss James Acaster, who may very well be the funniest person alive and, despite having the same haircut as Kara in middle school, still can garner adoration from all three of us. Discussion broadens to British game shows such as Taskmaster, the thing we all can't stop binging, and we learn that Noelle has a crush on just about every British comedian... But you'll want to stick around for the reveal.  For the algorithm: James Acaster James Acaster James Acaster. How many times do we need to put it in the description to get him to find this?

    What is obsession? Is it love? (Ep. 11)

    This week, we're trying to reframe our focus, and trying to put together a miniature Christmas viewing schedule (that has very little to do with Christmas). Discussion includes the origin of us binge-watching something together, AKA our first love: British television. Over the years, and over this recording, we come to terms with what actually creates an obsession in our eyes, and how that can shift over time. Plus, stick around for the grand reveal of Kara announcing that she has... A crush.

    Guardians 2 Princess Diaries 2 (ep. 10)

    After a brief hiatus, this week we finally answer the question of which Chris "has gotta go".. And where we'd rank the other Chris's in succession. Not only did we watch Spenser's perhaps most-hated film of the MCU: 'Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2', we also watched Kara's comfort movie: 'The Princess Diaries 2'. Which sequel reigns supreme? Well, that may be obvious, but less-obvious might be what we think of the .. "comedy" and "fashion" in 'Emily in Paris'. So, say "bonjour" to Chris Pine, and Kara realizing she may have an attachment to the man she never even knew about...

    Spooky Halloween Episode! (ep. 9)

    After all this news about Chris Pratt, we decided it was time to discuss the real horrors of the MCU. After a quick google search, there were plenty of "scary" facts about the movies and the making of them, so welcome to our take of a Halloween themed episode! The scariest part? We might not be able to stan RDJ anymore!!!! To get through this one, take a drink every time we say "that's crazy" or Kara sniffles.
