Replaying Favorites

Chris and Brie take one last look at the podcast: the highs, the lows, the surprises, the disappointments, the triumphs, the defeats. Maybe the REAL podcast was the friends they made along the way! (Well, they were already friends, so this one can probably just be taken at face value.) Instagram: @ReplayingFavorites Twitter: @ReplayingFavs Logo credit: Metallic Vectors by Vecteezy

Chris and Brie close out the year, and the podcast overall, with a light-hearted take on institutional racism, rampant sexual violence, and unadressed generational trauma. It sounds like a lot to overlook, but all is forgiven thanks to the love a weird old disgraced recluse shows to a teenage boy after dark in secret in a mall parking lot right before being violently murdered.

The men are sad and superfluous, the women are tragicomic and terrific, and the colors are pink and pink. This episode improbably contains Dylan McDermott's second concerning intrusion on a woman's privacy, as well as a delightful pitch for a sequel and an important announcement at the end about where this podcast is going.   Instagram: @ReplayingFavorites Twitter: @ReplayingFavs Logo credit: Metallic Vectors by Vecteezy

Brie gets Chris caught up to the early '80s in his cultural knowledge by serving him the second entry (or is it the fifth?) in the Star Wars saga. There's an expected cry over Carrie Fisher, a harsh rebuke of Obi-Wan's ability to give useful directions, and a fair amount of confusion about whether anyone in the movie even knows the Wampa exists. Come back in 20 years to see if technology will allow the hosts to retroactively add more dazzling content to this discussion.

Join Chris and Brie as they experience the secondhand trauma of visiting the family for Thanksgiving. Revel in the greatness of returning favorites Holly Hunter and Charles Durning, embrace the chaos of Aunt Glady, and shun the criminal acts perpetrated both on and off screen by Robert Downey, Jr. Instagram: @ReplayingFavorites Twitter: @ReplayingFavs Logo credit: Metallic Vectors by Vecteezy

The spooooooooky (sigh) Halloween theme continues this week as our hosts explore a house born bad. Unlike The Haunting's Eleanor, Chris wasn't taken over by Hill House, but was pretty enamored by the lesbian. Brie has some surprising further theories on both. Trick or treat!

Kicking things off in our month of spooky Halloween movies (which is a real easy assignment when there are only two episodes a month), Chris ropes Brie into his annual autumn tradition of bingeing this Cartoon Network classic. Learn which part actually scared Brie, which part Chris would play in the live-action remake, and which part should be excised entirely.

A plot by an acclaimed novelist directed by the guy who made the Ocean's movies starring two of the hottest stars of the past several decades supported by a cast of soon-to-be luminaries in minor roles. What could possibly go wrong? Well, funny you should ask... Instagram: @ReplayingFavorites Twitter: @ReplayingFavs Logo credit: Metallic Vectors by Vecteezy

This week, your intrepid hosts replay a movie that's horny for food, and somehow that turns into... listen, it's a horny episode. We've got all the standard Replaying Favorites favorites, plus a few new stars in the firmament. You're going to want to carbo load.  Instagram: @ReplayingFavorites Twitter: @ReplayingFavs Logo credit: Metallic Vectors by Vecteezy

It's a classic musical that you love if you saw it when you were eight and... well, maybe your parents shouldn't have shown you this when you were eight. Chris and Brie evaluate which parts (if any) hold up to scrutiny, and in the biggest plot twist of the series, they vote to keep the sports and throw away the section where Stockard Channing sings while trying on wigs. Truly we live in confusing times. (Also, there is a running tally on animated intros now.) Instagram: @ReplayingFavorites Twitter: @ReplayingFavs Logo credit: Metallic Vectors by Vecteezy
