Molly's partner in life and crime, Eric Moneypenny (Adult Swim, FOX ADHD, The Midnight Show, AOK), joins the show this week to discuss "A Working Mother's Worst Nightmare," a 2019 mystery/thriller "based in Los Angeles" despite being shot entirely in London, UK, with British actors playing Americans.

Showrunner, writer, producer, 9/11 survivor (?!), and Molls' longtime friend, Rob Anderson, joins the pod to talk about a TV movie that hit SO freakin hard (and was directed by Mickey Dolenz of The Monkee's). Amongst the chatter about this surprisingly layered and twisty film, Rob and Molls also touch on topics like locking eyes with a rival during a moment of unspeakable tragedy and chaos, accommodating a cat's desires in a coyote-heavy city, the breakup advice Rob once gave Molly, and Skyrizzi.  From IMDb: A lawyer (Stephanie Zimbalist) turns private investigator when her doctor-husband holds himself responsible for the death of a patient.

The hair choices in this 1996 film are mesmerizing, the wardrobe is out of this world, and the way this story wraps up wth a dramatic court scene meant that they'd be no better guest than a glamorous lawyer who takes on not-so-glamourous cases. Enter Molly's pal, Attoney Stara, a defense attorney living in the Dallas area who also shares her takes on various cases on TikTok and is a fixture in Molls' lives.  From IMDb: Thanks to a roommate's practical joke, bookish college student Joanna Halbert finds herself signed up with a Malibu-based escort service. Her initial annoyance turns to curiosity when she visits the boss's beach house, and she is soon captivated by the seemingly glamorous lifestyle of working as a high-class escort. Before long, however, she realizes that glitz and money go hand in hand with exploitation and sleaze--and it may be too late to get out.

Molls is joined by friend of the pod, actress Marianna Klaveno, to talk about the movie inspired by the book that so many GenX and Millennials devoured and never forgot, The Face on The Milk Carton.
