Speaker 1: Ky Leanna, this is Sienna, I'm about to watch the
Speaker 1: Nine Little Women nineties. I'm not all that familiar with
Speaker 1: the Little Women franchise, however.
Speaker 2: Normalize that. Excuse me.
Speaker 1: However, I did read a book called The Mother Daughter
Speaker 1: Book Club when I was in middle school, and in
Speaker 1: that book they read the Little Women Books book, the
Speaker 1: Little Women Book, and they spend time in Concord and
Speaker 1: they talk about Louise and may Alcott and it's very cute,
Speaker 1: and they all compare themselves to which girl they are.
Speaker 2: So anyway, I know a little book about it.
Speaker 1: I went the word homebody from those books. Yes, I
Speaker 1: know all be a lot like those books. You know,
Speaker 1: four girls in the two thousands and their moms. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm excited for the vibes. I know it seems christmasy,
Speaker 1: just in the old timiness, but I don't know how
Speaker 1: much Christmas actually plays a part. I know Beth is
Speaker 1: going to get sick, and I know the main want,
Speaker 1: Joe is going to cut her hair off. So yeah,
Speaker 1: she wants to be a writer. Okay, I love you, goodbye.
Speaker 1: I came in thinking I knew very little, and then
Speaker 1: I realized I knew a lot just from being alive
Speaker 1: and reading those books, and so then I said all.
Speaker 2: Of it and thank you well, Sienna. Here's my prediction
Speaker 2: of Little Women nineteen ninety four. Hi, Sienna, it's Leanna.
Speaker 2: I'm about to watch Little Women nineteen ninety four question mark. Yes,
Speaker 2: I've seen the newer version. I've not seen this one.
Speaker 2: So I predict American girls with dness, spirit, and I'm
Speaker 2: not sure that I'm in a space for that energy
Speaker 2: right now. So I'm sorry in advance.
Speaker 1: Love you bye, Okay, Leonna, Hey girl, Hey good.
Speaker 2: Girl, Hey girl girl. Honestly, that was dramatic. I don't
Speaker 2: know what was going on with me in that. I
Speaker 2: will say I'm alone again. My family was in town,
Speaker 2: but during the course of that, my flatmate left town
Speaker 2: because they booked. They booked a TV show in Los
Speaker 2: Angeles that they're shooting for like a week and a half.
Speaker 2: But as a result, they're gone for all of December again,
Speaker 2: hotday time. Alone again in the shortest, darkest days of
Speaker 2: the year.
Speaker 1: Where you're supposed to hunker down with the close people
Speaker 1: that you know in your.
Speaker 2: Near, near and deer, and instead I am in here alone.
Speaker 2: I treated myself to turning on the heat. Okay, I'm
Speaker 2: so cold. Wow, and there's no one else in here.
Speaker 1: Your vibes are actually perfect for this because you're experiencing
Speaker 1: a lot of what these you feel like. Your lifestyle
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four London has actually a number of similarities.
Speaker 2: Civil War era concord. Yeah, yeah they yeah. Well, how
Speaker 2: was your family being in town? Oh they're fine, thank you,
Speaker 2: Hey girl, I'm just kidding. It was fun. It's I mean,
Speaker 2: you know, my family, we haven't relaxed a single day
Speaker 2: in our lives. So we did like two activities a
Speaker 2: day and walked everywhere in between. At one point, I
Speaker 2: had to tap out because I had to do my
Speaker 2: laundry and edit this podcast. And I was like, I
Speaker 2: can't walk and do both of those things. I can't.
Speaker 2: I have to be in We have to walk. We're walking.
Speaker 2: That's so funny. It's so different from my family. We
Speaker 2: did pretty much every possible thing. Why my family was here,
Speaker 2: we did every possible thing. You know how it is,
Speaker 2: you know how it goes? Hey girl, how girl? Family?
Speaker 2: Did you recover after Lady Chatterley's Lover? Yes, it's okay.
Speaker 2: Things are never the same. No.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, my families were in another way of being like,
Speaker 1: it's fine, Like I don't know, it's just why why
Speaker 1: wouldn't any of us leave?
Speaker 2: We're all talking about eating us?
Speaker 1: No, actually, it's a running joke in my family that
Speaker 1: for a while, my brother and I kept talking about
Speaker 1: eating ass because it would make my family, my parents
Speaker 1: so upset. But we also I think, I don't know,
Speaker 1: we can't keep this. I think it made them assume
Speaker 1: we were both eating a lot of ass.
Speaker 2: Please can we keep that? Okay? Fine, I don't want
Speaker 2: to reveal my secret. I'm in a period right now
Speaker 2: where my parents think my brother and I are eating
Speaker 2: a lot of ass.
Speaker 1: We were making the joke so much that I think
Speaker 1: they were like, we don't need to know about what
Speaker 1: you guy are doing. And I was like, I would
Speaker 1: actually love if that was like a thing about me,
Speaker 1: but that's not happening in terms of me being like
Speaker 1: an interesting straight person. But I'm like, I don't want
Speaker 1: to have to tell my parents I'm not eating any ass.
Speaker 2: Mom, dad, I'm not eating ass.
Speaker 1: But my parents have that thing of being like, we
Speaker 1: don't want to hear about that because that's like a
Speaker 1: new thing. And I'm like, mom, dad, I don't think.
Speaker 2: It's a new thing. Anyway, That's not what I meant
Speaker 2: to talk about. Oh right, hey girl.
Speaker 1: First of all, there's a dog in my house right now?
Speaker 2: Can I see it? You want to get it? Can
Speaker 2: I see the dog? Please stop the recording, stop the episode? No,
Speaker 2: but would you go get it at the end?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay? Who is that it? Where did it come from?
Speaker 2: What is it? Why? Tell me?
Speaker 1: Is dating somebody who has a dog and she just
Speaker 1: lets this dog stay with us? Oh?

Speaker 1: Los Angeles again.
Speaker 2: Oh? I love that? What kind of dog? Oh my gosh?

Speaker 2: Okay, at the end of this episode, I will I
Speaker 2: d a dog everybody. But it's a good it's a
Speaker 2: good dog.
Speaker 1: Came and greeted me. I actually they came and greeted me.
Speaker 1: I don't know their gender.
Speaker 2: But you know, oh my god, Uh, what's their name? June? June? Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's not that cute. Jude. Did I ever tell you
Speaker 2: about the time I was having a dinner a friend's
Speaker 2: birthday dinner where so there were some really posh guys
Speaker 2: who went to Oxford and they were saying that they
Speaker 2: were going to go see the movie Dune. But they
Speaker 2: were so posh that they pronounced June, June, June. We're
Speaker 2: going to see June, seeing June, going to go see June.
Speaker 2: I was like, what, Oh, I love that. I love
Speaker 2: that Dune is in your house right now? Dune.
Speaker 1: Did I tell you about when I was very small
Speaker 1: and my dad took us to Florence when I was
Speaker 1: a kid because he loves Italy so much, and the pope,
Speaker 1: the Pope trope.
Speaker 2: I swear this happened.
Speaker 1: No, we were the Spanish steps in his pope trope By,
Speaker 1: but like we knew that trope By.
Speaker 2: Was he in the popemobile? Yeah?
Speaker 1: No way, we knew it was gonna happen, like we
Speaker 1: were prepared for it. Like we went and people gathered around, okay,
Speaker 1: and there was a British man next to us. I
Speaker 1: was like so young, I could barely keep up with
Speaker 1: what was going on. But there was a tall, red
Speaker 1: haired British man next to us, and he went, he's
Speaker 1: that the poop? When I was a kid, I remember
Speaker 1: vividly this man calling him the poop, and I was like, Oop,
Speaker 1: It's like, Mom, Dad, what is going on over here?
Speaker 1: Do you hear that man calling the pope the poop?
Speaker 2: Poop? Set the poop? Your youth is really bookended by ass.
Speaker 1: A youth bookended by ass. Well, I guess that's enough,
Speaker 1: hay girl.
Speaker 2: For now, Leonnat the poop? Should we move on? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Talk about this movie? I guess I did you end
Speaker 2: up having a good time? Girl? I hated this movie,
Speaker 2: but I have my reasons. Okay, whoa before we get
Speaker 2: into that, Okay, would you please give us a synopsis
Speaker 2: of Little Women nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 1: Yes, unfortunately, I loved this movie. But I haven't seen
Speaker 1: any little women anything.
Speaker 2: Okay, I've never seen a little woman. I've never seen
Speaker 2: any little woman in my life. All the women I
Speaker 2: know are big. I only know big women. That's how
Speaker 2: I want to do Big Women review Little Women? Well, this
Speaker 2: is very biased. Little Women.
Speaker 1: The March sisters and their mom are queening out in Concord, Massachusetts.
Speaker 2: Ah.
Speaker 1: The girls experience adolescence in their surprisingly feminist Transcendentalist household during.
Speaker 2: The Civil War era.
Speaker 1: Oh is the cool one who's going to be a writer?
Speaker 1: Wants to be more than just a wife and doesn't
Speaker 1: like when anything changes. Meg is the oldest. She's kind
Speaker 1: of conventional and chill.
Speaker 2: You could call her the boring one, but we love her.
Speaker 2: Beth gets scarlet fever, parentheses dies. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The youngest. Amy is a mean child who grows up
Speaker 1: to be a graceful painter teenager. Their mom slays big time.
Speaker 2: It's charming and sisterly, with cakes and snow and discussions
Speaker 2: of what it means to be an interesting woman in
Speaker 2: the world in a world with society. The end yay,
Speaker 2: in a world with society.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm so shocked you didn't like it and I
Speaker 1: can't wait to hear about.
Speaker 2: It, Leona. Shall we move on to phone notes? Yes,
Speaker 2: hello everyone, This is the section of our podcast where
Speaker 2: we read the notes that the other person took on
Speaker 2: their phone while watching the film. But first we have
Speaker 2: a segment Leanna explains herself. Okay, let's hear it. This
Speaker 2: is our segment. Leanna explains herself. Hello, my name is Leanna. Hi, listen,
Speaker 2: I loved Little Women twenty nineteen. Got it makes sense,
Speaker 2: so we will watch that in a few days time.
Speaker 2: So you're by I think I predict. My prediction of
Speaker 2: Little Women twenty nineteen is that you'll understand my feelings
Speaker 2: on Little Women in nineteen ninety four. Gotcha. So I
Speaker 2: am biased and I could not. I had no I was.
Speaker 2: I was helpless against comparing the two see consciously or subconsciously,
Speaker 2: and I just like the other one more. Sorry, sorry,
Speaker 2: I don't dislike the story. I love feminism really not
Speaker 2: sounded like it. And the North's opinions during the Americans before.
Speaker 1: We said you didn't like it, so none of us
Speaker 1: can be sure of that. I'm not sure you feel
Speaker 1: about feminism or the North's opinions on Civil War.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I keep those those pretty close to my chair
Speaker 2: that you've never answered. When I ask you, you say,
Speaker 2: I can't tell you. You know, there were so many sides.
Speaker 2: There's so many sides. No, there's so many sides to feminism.
Speaker 2: So that's where I was coming from. Okay, that makes sense.
Speaker 1: I was lucky not to have seen anything, so I
Speaker 1: didn't have any comparing to do except for the Mother
Speaker 1: Daughter book Club. All right, Well, let's get into our
Speaker 1: phone notes.
Speaker 2: Leanna.
Speaker 1: Your first note is Christian Bale.
Speaker 2: Oh no, oh no, in what way? I'm so afraid
Speaker 2: of Christian Bale. I get that. I find him so
Speaker 2: scary to look at. How do you feel about Christian Bale?
Speaker 2: Are you not terrified of him? I feel SIMI. I'm
Speaker 2: similarly like, hmmm, great, hold his mouth weird. I'm suspicious
Speaker 2: of him. Great, but okay, thank god. Same.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's he's He's kind of neutral to me, but
Speaker 1: I have a bit of suspicion.
Speaker 2: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 1: I loved when he went evil mode. He became so evil,
Speaker 1: like who grows a pointy triangular go to.
Speaker 2: You're making such a choice. Yeah, I didn't like his
Speaker 2: general face. Lelana, you said an amazing sentence.
Speaker 1: You said something which we should be asking for this
Speaker 1: entire month, which is is this on purpose Christmas?
Speaker 2: Which? What does that mean? It started and I was like, wait,
Speaker 2: why are we doing this at Christmas time? I know
Speaker 2: we feel like it's Christmasy, but is it on purpose Christmas?
Speaker 2: Or do people just associate it with Christmas? Oh? And
Speaker 2: then they hung a wreathe up on a door and
Speaker 2: they will pay for I see, And I was like, oh,
Speaker 2: every Christmas. Yeah, you wrote instantly Christmas and I was
Speaker 2: like instant. I wasn't sure, so I wondered if it
Speaker 2: was on purpose Christmas. Sometimes things are not on purpose Christmas. Yeah,
Speaker 2: true Christmas. We just think we're just like it is because, Yeah, Siena,
Speaker 2: you wrote there are really a lot of women here.
Speaker 2: It's called little women. It's not called a lot of women.
Speaker 2: When it started and it.
Speaker 1: Was four sisters around their mom, I was like, this
Speaker 1: is the most woman.
Speaker 2: This is the most women I've seen. This is the
Speaker 2: most woman women. This is the most women, the most
Speaker 2: women on screen maybe ever at one time, since women talking.
Speaker 2: Maybe you just don't see that many women in one
Speaker 2: frame almost ever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't get me wrong, I love true all. Leanna
Speaker 1: you said, ah, this is so cute and cozy. Too bad,
Speaker 1: Bet is gonna die.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is how it feels. Sorry, guys, I'm on
Speaker 2: the run.
Speaker 1: I just threw my sister's manuscript in the fire and
Speaker 1: she's so mad at me, she's gonna kill me.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back. Wait, let's do this. Which woman
Speaker 2: are you? What does make sound like?
Speaker 1: Oh, it's just rude that they gave her a name
Speaker 1: that sounds like meg and ug in the egg.
Speaker 2: Men and ug Meg Meg egg. Which little women are we? Okay?
Speaker 1: It feels like we're in the mother Daughter book club
Speaker 1: right now?
Speaker 2: Which one do you feel like? I guess Joe in
Speaker 2: that the cool one. No one is proposing to me. Wait,
Speaker 2: that's not her at all. She very much gets proposed to.
Speaker 2: I guess Beth, the one who gets scarlet fever and dies.
Speaker 2: You know that moment where Beth is like, I'm gonna die? Well, okay,
Speaker 2: Also that moment where she's holding a baby. When she's
Speaker 2: holding a baby and she's like cry, Absolutely she loves
Speaker 2: being at home. She's like, yeah, I don't need to
Speaker 2: go anywhere. I'm really loving it here.
Speaker 1: She's sick and she's just like curled up on the
Speaker 1: couch all the time. People are talking to her, and
Speaker 1: she's like, which wasn't that.
Speaker 2: Is how I am at home too.
Speaker 1: I always act like I'm sickly, but really I'm just
Speaker 1: kind of tired.
Speaker 2: How about you? Which little woman are you? Well?
Speaker 1: I think you know, I mean, I think we're all
Speaker 1: Joe in a way. If you're a feminist adult, which
Speaker 1: is that you're like, oh, I don't want to do that.
Speaker 2: Yep. Let me definitely say I am a super definitely
Speaker 2: Joe adult.
Speaker 1: No, Well, I guess I say that because I don't
Speaker 1: want to be like I'm Joe. But okay, what I
Speaker 1: resonated in Joe is that I liked that she was like,
Speaker 1: I am so scared of the idea of being a
Speaker 1: wife that sounds that concept is terrifying to me. But
Speaker 1: what I noticed about But I also I'm also big
Speaker 1: sister Mode a lot of times like Meg.
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, the big sisters. You identify more with Meg
Speaker 2: than with Joe, because Joe has to big sister Amy
Speaker 2: a lot. That's true.
Speaker 1: You know, the relationship between Amy and Joe was so
Speaker 1: gabby and I at points I only wondered, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: I want to say something about Amy and we'll talk
Speaker 1: about it.
Speaker 2: This will come up to my badges and trages.
Speaker 1: But she was such a feisty young girl and then
Speaker 1: she they made her so boring when she grew up,
Speaker 1: which bothered me a lot, because I'll tell you one thing,
Speaker 1: feisty children grow up to be feisty adults. I had
Speaker 1: a ficy younger sister. She's awesome now, but she's still
Speaker 1: super funny because she was a feisty child, like Amy
Speaker 1: wasn't funny or anything.
Speaker 2: I feel like if what's his name? Larie. If Laurie
Speaker 2: were to come and visit her and be like, I
Speaker 2: want to get married to you, she wouldn't just be like,
Speaker 2: are you still in love with my sister?
Speaker 1: She would be like, oh, now you want to marry me?
Speaker 2: M yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, pretty boy? Why don't you prove it?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: You know, because she'd be she said, pretty boy, he'd
Speaker 2: got pubes on his chin. Okay, pubee boy? My bushes burning. Yay,
Speaker 2: we found a use for it. My bush burning.
Speaker 1: Leanna, you've said you said Mega has a cane. Truly
Speaker 1: a flop. Oh my god, I didn't know she had
Speaker 1: a cane. Meg is such a flop.
Speaker 2: She is. She is so boring. She is from Ville.
Speaker 2: She everyone means her ankle at the ball, she has
Speaker 2: to walk with a cane. I didn't even notice that.
Speaker 2: How did I mess that? What is wrong with this woman?
Speaker 2: That is? She's so frank?
Speaker 1: You know that people everyone knows someone who's just like
Speaker 1: sort of a downer in a way. They're just like
Speaker 1: not funny about it. You know, everything goes wrong and
Speaker 1: they're kind of like, you know, She's like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I hope these shoes look okay, I got them from
Speaker 1: the free bin. Like it's fine, that's completely fine, Meg,
Speaker 1: you don't have to be, you know, so wame about it.
Speaker 2: She's like, it's okay, I'll just go. She goes to
Speaker 2: the ball and everybody makes fun of her.
Speaker 1: I made this dress. I sewed it myself. Oh okay, Meg, well, uh,
Speaker 1: I really like that color. I haven't seen it since
Speaker 1: before the war. Oh well, maybe i'll change my outfit then,
Speaker 1: And then she does, and then the guys she gets
Speaker 1: slut shamed by Laurie, by the way.
Speaker 2: Wrote that exact thing down. Thank you. Yeah, I hated that,
Speaker 2: thank you.
Speaker 1: But then she's like she goes and sits over at
Speaker 1: the side and she's like, oh, I got slutshamed by this.
Speaker 2: Guy, Like that sucks my family friend. That's awful. I'm
Speaker 2: so sorry that her family friend slut shamed me a
Speaker 2: bunch of football.
Speaker 1: It's like, also, those shoes I got from the free
Speaker 1: bin twisted my ankle in them.
Speaker 2: Now using she's literally sure, she is eger.
Speaker 1: Okay, Meg, all right, you could you could do stand
Speaker 1: up about all of that, but instead you're just okay.
Speaker 2: Be interesting about it. God, I'm sorry. Bad things are
Speaker 2: happening to you, but be interesting about it? And how
Speaker 2: is egg? Uh? Leanna?
Speaker 1: You said, Amy, shut up about the limes? I did
Speaker 1: not know how much, little woman?
Speaker 2: Why do I keep doing this? You keep singularizing women.
Speaker 2: Little women talked about limes. I didn't know they knew
Speaker 2: about limes. I didn't know either. It was a real thing.
Speaker 2: It was a silly band. They get limes from the market.
Speaker 2: Silly bands, Remember silly bands in our era? I do,
Speaker 2: of course. What is it now?
Speaker 1: The thing that everybody has a thing?
Speaker 2: And I'm so pleased to not know that? Is it snapchat?
Speaker 2: Maybe it's make up? It's not snaps from snapchat? Is it?
Speaker 2: What is it again? What is it? Oh? My god?
Speaker 2: Oh I know what you're know what you're referencing? Skippity skimmity,
Speaker 2: skibbity toilet. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes yes.
Speaker 1: They're treating skibbity's instead of limes these days.
Speaker 2: I didn't understand it, did did you? Do? You remember
Speaker 2: the game how many limes at your high? At your apartment?
Speaker 2: I was actually at someone else's house, which is what
Speaker 2: made it so fun. We were at a party, and yeah,
Speaker 2: I was really bored, and there was a huge bag
Speaker 2: of limes, and so I started hiding them on my person.
Speaker 2: Where were we?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: It was so funny.
Speaker 1: Where was?
Speaker 2: It made me think of that? Yep, that is what
Speaker 2: it made me think of. Twenty four limes and I
Speaker 2: was like, how many limes? That's what it made me
Speaker 2: think of.
Speaker 1: Two.
Speaker 2: I remember a time when bless when were also the
Speaker 2: career Fellas folks listeners fellas. I've never addressed our listener
Speaker 2: basis Fellas Fellas. If ever you're bored at a party
Speaker 2: and there's a huge bag of citrus near you start
Speaker 2: hiding it really funny and get your friends together. Why
Speaker 2: did you get a gat me? I think like eighteen?
Speaker 2: It was amazing, It was amazing. It was nuts.
Speaker 1: Leonna reinvented the lime craze of little women. Leonna, Okay,
Speaker 1: you said I'd have let Amy die, and I understand.
Speaker 1: You know what this is though, that feeling that you felt.
Speaker 1: They created the real feeling of sisterhood through this film.
Speaker 1: They depicted it so that you wanted to kill that child.
Speaker 1: Yeah is what it feels like to be an older sister. Mm.
Speaker 1: But then yeah, you end up saving them because of
Speaker 1: course you love them, but you want to actually kill
Speaker 1: each other.
Speaker 2: It's crazy. It's like, I hate her. I love her,
Speaker 2: but I hate her. I hate her so much I
Speaker 2: will go get her.
Speaker 1: But oh, Leonna, you said, let's let's do some of
Speaker 1: these notes here. You've said, I promise to kiss you
Speaker 1: before you die. The bar is so low.
Speaker 2: But honestly, if somebody said that to me now, I'd
Speaker 2: be like, oh, great, Well, at least there's something on
Speaker 2: the docket, something in the diary. Okay, that's great. Are
Speaker 2: you seeing how well one guy promised to kiss me
Speaker 2: before I die? So I will be at some point. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I got a lot of things going. Genuinely, if a
Speaker 2: guy promised to kiss me before I die, I would
Speaker 2: accept that. That's where we're at. If a person who
Speaker 2: I was tolerant of was like, I'll kiss you before
Speaker 2: you die, I'd be like, dearest family, I've started seeing someone.
Speaker 2: It's getting pretty serious. He promised to kiss me before
Speaker 2: I die. We're making plans, so please save the date
Speaker 2: before my dad first, make the save the date for
Speaker 2: my death. Not sure when that's gonna be, but before that,
Speaker 2: any of you know a palm reader or mystic of
Speaker 2: any kind who could agulate a year would love to
Speaker 2: know when that's coming up. I need to figure out
Speaker 2: what I'm gonna die because I promised to kiss me
Speaker 2: before that. Yeah, I gotta go find.
Speaker 1: Him at some point in your lifetime.
Speaker 2: I will kiss you on the lips. I'll kiss you
Speaker 2: before you die.
Speaker 1: Leanna, you've said, Joe, I am one thousand percent sure
Speaker 1: you are heterosexual.
Speaker 2: Laurie, who is wrong? You watched this movie? You're telling
Speaker 2: me Joe straight. She's like, I'm not interested in you
Speaker 2: that way. Sorry, we've been hanging out, Like then you
Speaker 2: ever want to be a wife ever? I love writing
Speaker 2: about women. I love women so much. I never want
Speaker 2: to marry.
Speaker 1: You're the hottest guy in town, and I just don't
Speaker 1: like you like that.
Speaker 2: I feel nothing towards any man, Laurie. But wow, do
Speaker 2: I almost have it all?
Speaker 1: But he always kisses people before they want to be kissed.
Speaker 2: I hate him. I just hate him. He's so unsettling.
Speaker 2: He's like a frog. He's like having a frog in
Speaker 2: your pocket. I don't like him at all. I don't
Speaker 2: want him around. He would ruin Christmas.
Speaker 1: He's like having a frog in your pocket. I don't
Speaker 1: want that.
Speaker 2: I don't like that because something's always hopping about. You
Speaker 2: think everything's fine, but there's a little ribbit coming from
Speaker 2: somewhere and you're like, what the fuck.
Speaker 1: I thought he was a very well portrayed version of
Speaker 1: this character, like when he later settling boy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, when he later plays like a suspicious actor. Christian
Speaker 2: bale I wrote this down later, but I'll say it now,
Speaker 2: which is that he goes through a winter arc. Do
Speaker 2: you know this term? No.
Speaker 1: I learned this from high school for men. They explained
Speaker 1: it as specifically for men. But a winter arc, it's
Speaker 1: kind of like a villain era. It's like a villain arc.
Speaker 1: But it's not that you're becoming a villain per se
Speaker 1: as much as it's, like they said, it's like when
Speaker 1: a when a Jim bro or when a guy gets
Speaker 1: broken up with and then he's like in the gym
Speaker 1: all the time and he's like I'm fine, I'm fine,
Speaker 1: but he's like, she broke up with me. That's like
Speaker 1: a winter arc. Like I guess it's he's hunkering down
Speaker 1: in the winter, just like Okay, going through his era
Speaker 1: of yeah, feeling sorry for himself and being with himself,
Speaker 1: like depressed.
Speaker 2: And building building up a den to sleep through the
Speaker 2: winter instead of processing. Yeah yeah, instead of processing. And
Speaker 2: he's like, I gotta do my music. I'm doing my
Speaker 2: ah and hopefully like in old movies when a man
Speaker 2: would go bowling, so when a man goes bowling in
Speaker 2: the nineteen forties, that's his winter art. I think it's
Speaker 2: literally like that, Like, okay, yes, it's not that he's
Speaker 2: completely putting on the villain outfit. It's that he's like
Speaker 2: putting on the writh.
Speaker 1: Even though Laurie does truly put on the devil's facial hair.
Speaker 2: He gets Satan Go tea, Satan's Go tea.
Speaker 1: But he also just like, I'm just really focusing on
Speaker 1: my music right now. I'm just dating or whatever. But
Speaker 1: I'm not still in love with Joe.
Speaker 2: I'm not at all. But we should totally can't, Samin. Actually,
Speaker 2: I'm super fine. I won't be in your family. I'm
Speaker 2: supposed to be a family. This guy's so weird. Oh
Speaker 2: give me a few moments. I'm just gonna go close
Speaker 2: the window because the wind is picked up. I'm sure
Speaker 2: when I turn around everything will still be the same.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Leanna, you said, I know they're going to
Speaker 1: make her fall in love with this old man you're
Speaker 1: talking about.
Speaker 2: I'm the journey guy. Read that again.
Speaker 1: I know they're Oh you've said. I know they're not
Speaker 1: gonna make her fall in love with this old man.
Speaker 2: That's how I felt, too.
Speaker 1: I was completely in the nile when he entered the
Speaker 1: entered the chat.
Speaker 2: He's like, what okays that she just.
Speaker 1: Left her hometown and now there's this German guy, an
Speaker 1: old man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what the hell was that?
Speaker 1: No, okay, I'm guessing that doesn't happen in the next one.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying anything.
Speaker 1: I what I did like about Joe's whole thing, Well,
Speaker 1: this will be in bad just too, but just her
Speaker 1: that her mom's like, you're not an ordinary girl.
Speaker 2: You can't have an ordinary life. And yeah, in today's
Speaker 2: day and age, she would.
Speaker 1: Just be what she is gay, But back then she
Speaker 1: had to go to New York and shack up with
Speaker 1: a German guy, an old German professor.
Speaker 2: Is the close you get to a girlfriend at the time. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's so grim and true. I loved, Oh my god,
Speaker 2: that she had to have something interesting. H that was awful. Cianna,
Speaker 2: you wrote why'd they zoom in on that doll? Are
Speaker 2: you talking about that buxom doll with the tiny head.
Speaker 2: Yeah the hell was that?
Speaker 1: What was that like Beth? I think it was like
Speaker 1: Beth's doll, Like the small doll represented Beth, which is
Speaker 1: just so mean. Like the girl already gets scarlet fever.
Speaker 1: She has no personality traits besides being kind to babies,
Speaker 1: to the poor family, and thus she brings them a potato.
Speaker 1: She brings them a potato and gets the scarlet of
Speaker 1: a fever. She brings them a potato and his hand
Speaker 1: and a baby who has scarlet fever. And then they zoom,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be nice to you, and you hand
Speaker 1: me a baby who has scarlet fever. I'm sorry, No
Speaker 1: Leanna's Leanna would enter her winter arc. I cannot believe
Speaker 1: they zoomed in on the ugliest doll that's ever existed.
Speaker 2: It's nuts, its shape was it looks crazy any of
Speaker 2: those toys that sid would make and toy story, I
Speaker 2: eat two things smashed together.
Speaker 1: We'll have to find a picture for the memes or
Speaker 1: something of the the actual shape of that doll. And
Speaker 1: they zimmed in for a long time, long enough for
Speaker 1: you to go, who is that?
Speaker 2: Am I supposed to know?
Speaker 1: That the only thing in her box was like that
Speaker 1: horrible doll. And then and then there was a big
Speaker 1: newspaper that remember back when they wrote those newspapers, which
Speaker 1: was cute.
Speaker 2: They wrote those and Beth would be like.
Speaker 1: I don't know what to write, so I just wrote
Speaker 1: a recipe.
Speaker 2: I'm so dumb. Oh I forgot that.
Speaker 1: So she was the one who never can contributed to
Speaker 1: anything good, and yet they kept those newspapers in her chest.
Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, that's so insulting. This whole thing is
Speaker 1: so insulting. Her horrible articles and the ugliest all that's
Speaker 1: ever existed, that's her legacy.
Speaker 2: Maybe, well, I guess that's why she was like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm kind of cool with shuffling off this mortal ques.
Speaker 2: It's time for me to go. No, it's not the
Speaker 2: place for me. It is, let's be honest, it is.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go.
Speaker 1: Also, how about when Winona Ryder looks out the window
Speaker 1: for long enough that when she turns back, her sister
Speaker 1: is dead. You have to read my note. Okay, Leanna,
Speaker 1: you said, Okay, Leanna, you said. First of all, you said,
Speaker 1: I feel like I've spent this whole film waiting for
Speaker 1: Beth to die, Yeah, and what is life?
Speaker 2: But that then you.
Speaker 1: Said, OMG, is she gonna turn around and her sister
Speaker 1: is dead? And then below that you've said lmao, because
Speaker 1: that's exactly what they did. That What a time to
Speaker 1: get distracted, Joe.
Speaker 2: What a stupid movie choice. That's so dumb. It's like
Speaker 2: that scene in that movie where that guy turns and
Speaker 2: his friend has died while he's been talking Midnight Cowboy. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: the Midnight Cowboy.
Speaker 1: They're on the bus and he's talking and talking and
Speaker 1: talking and then he turns in his.
Speaker 2: This was the same. Joe got so distracted by the wind,
Speaker 2: but she had to go watch it for long enough
Speaker 2: for sister to that No, Beth, Well, fetch the buxom doll,
Speaker 2: she's gone. If I got buried with a buxom doll,
Speaker 2: I would haunt that house for a millennium. The doll was.
Speaker 1: So weird looking Lea Leoni, you said, never reject a
Speaker 1: man because he will marry your sister. Seriously, imagine somebody
Speaker 1: that you had like kind of a thing with h
Speaker 1: ended up. You come home and your sister's like or brother,
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, sorry, I hope you don't fee awkward.
Speaker 2: But we're getting married. Now they are married. It's crazy
Speaker 2: they were already married by then. He's like, may I
Speaker 2: introduce you to my wife? Don't do that? Don't don't
Speaker 2: you be doing that? And then it's my sister. No,
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I would be furious, Leona, your final
Speaker 2: two notes on this movie.
Speaker 1: And I know that you say it's because you did
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty one one you like it more. But
Speaker 1: all this just seems also like the vibes of the
Speaker 1: movie itself, which is twins terrible news. And then your
Speaker 1: final note is slanty face with just a million slants.
Speaker 1: In other words, I felt so deeply meg about this film.
Speaker 2: I felt men and ug so meg, very Meg. I
Speaker 2: loved it. See your final note is the noun for
Speaker 2: this episode needs to be limes or doctor bangs? Who's
Speaker 2: doctor bangs? Okay?
Speaker 1: I see why you didn't like this film, because this,
Speaker 1: hands down is the part of the movie that made
Speaker 1: me laugh for the longest.
Speaker 2: Which is Beth is dying. Yeah, and the learned man,
Speaker 2: the doctor would have across the street, that professor.
Speaker 1: He comes in and he's like, I'm so sorry, I
Speaker 1: brought my doctor doctor Bangs. That's his name. The doctor's name,
Speaker 1: doctor Banks, which, by the way, a lot of these
Speaker 1: women desperately needed.
Speaker 2: They needed a visit to doctor Banks. Yeah. Ah, like
Speaker 2: when you know, when you go through a bad breakup
Speaker 2: and you get visited by doctor Banks.
Speaker 1: I'm going through my winter arc aka scarlet fever.
Speaker 2: Aka I got a visit from doctor Banks. I only
Speaker 2: have one person to carl. I need a house call car,
Speaker 2: doctor Banks, I'm taking you to doctor Begs.
Speaker 3: I could not believe that was his name, ring, doctor Bank,
Speaker 3: doctor l nine one one fetch, doctor Bangs. It's the
Speaker 3: funniest nator a doctor could possibly have, especially in the
Speaker 3: eighteen hundreds.
Speaker 2: That cannot have been his name. His name was doctor Banks. No,
Speaker 2: there's no way look at a little women physician. Oh
Speaker 2: my god, his name is doctor Banks. What the fuck
Speaker 2: doctor Banks?
Speaker 1: No, And there is something so feminist about the doctor
Speaker 1: and little women being doctor Banks, doctor Bang. I mean everywhere,
Speaker 1: here's the thing. Every woman has had, like a cross
Speaker 1: that didn't work out. Every woman has uh made a
Speaker 1: fool of herself over you know, something something stupid at
Speaker 1: a party. Every woman has gotten obsessed with something like
Speaker 1: limes when they were an adolescent and every woman has
Speaker 1: gotten a visit from doctor Banks at one point, or.
Speaker 2: Doctor Bangs when they're at their lowest, from doctor Bangs
Speaker 2: when near death. Invite doctor Banks. Yeah, listen out for
Speaker 2: the wind, because then you'll survive to die, you'll survive
Speaker 2: for at least a few more years. Oh that's right,
Speaker 2: it's before her. Oh my god, doctor Bangs lifts you up.
Speaker 1: I'm really glad we got to discuss that, because that
Speaker 1: was pretty much less away from the edge of death.
Speaker 1: I was laughing at that for a long time. I laughed,
Speaker 1: and then ten minutes went by and I got an
Speaker 1: uncontrollable laughing thinking about.
Speaker 2: The good doctor Bangs. Oh that was just swoot of
Speaker 2: a light. Well, Lea Bangs, Doctor Bangs, Doctor Bangs, The
Speaker 2: doctor bangs. The doctor is an apple a day. Won't
Speaker 2: do anything with doctor Bangs in town. Boom you got Banks,
Speaker 2: boom a PhD Baby Banks call me doctor Bangs gotta

Speaker 2: I very have few badges.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, I'll start. I have a badge for the vibes. Oh,

Speaker 2: To the family down the road.
Speaker 1: I love that their sisters, the vibes were the vibe
Speaker 1: and their sisters.
Speaker 2: A badge for music by Thomas Newman. Yeah, did the
Speaker 2: music for nineteen seventeen. As some of us may recall,

Speaker 1: Badge for so sister Core. I think this movie really
Speaker 1: nailed sisterhood. Yes, for example, it made you hate a

Speaker 2: amer experience a child. Yeah. Badge for the house shaped

Speaker 2: Oh yeah, American girlies, American.
Speaker 4: Girlies, doctor bangs, American girl like to Baye reboot.
Speaker 1: Uh okay. A major badge for the feminist mom guidance.
Speaker 1: That was one thing I found really touching in this
Speaker 1: I thought Susan Sarandon was amazing. She really has a
Speaker 1: composure to her. But when the girls so much of
Speaker 1: this movie, I thought it was more of like these
Speaker 1: girls just talking to each other, reasoning things out. But
Speaker 1: I didn't know they had this mother figure who they
Speaker 1: just be confused about life and be like, Mom, I
Speaker 1: don't even I don't want to be here, I'm so
Speaker 1: mad at my sister blah blah blah, or I don't
Speaker 1: know what I want to do with my life, or
Speaker 1: I just feel like I don't fit in, And she
Speaker 1: would give them so much beautiful advice that often was
Speaker 1: like like, for example, yeah, some one thing that causes
Speaker 1: a lot of talk is when women are enjoying themselves
Speaker 1: in public, people are gonna talk.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Or when she's like, Joe, you're not an ordinary person,
Speaker 1: so how can you expect to have an ordinary life?

Speaker 2: If you look, Christmas really is all right.
Speaker 1: Badge for hating marriage. I thought that was very cool
Speaker 1: of her, and then badge generally. I thought the acting
Speaker 1: was really good. I thought Wenona Ryder was great and
Speaker 1: I was struck by her acting ability. I thought Kirsten
Speaker 1: Duntz was really good and I think children are are
Speaker 1: really stressful, but she was great.
Speaker 2: And also Claire Danes. Claire Danes ate that up. She
Speaker 2: ate the circles around the entire cast. My god, was amazing.
Speaker 2: It was very moving anyway. Yeah, powerful trag trages, trages,
Speaker 2: I have a trage for it. Respectfully, I am bored.
Speaker 2: I was bored. I'm sorry, sad, I'm sorry. I did
Speaker 2: not feel that way.
Speaker 1: Trage for my main trage is that Amy was just
Speaker 1: too lame. I thought they really In the video game world,
Speaker 1: we'd call it nerved.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you take your time with that. You reflect on that.
Speaker 1: They nerved Amy, which is when you have a new release,
Speaker 1: When you have a new release of a game and
Speaker 1: they make all the characters way worse, that's called nerve.
Speaker 1: So they they re released Amy as an older version
Speaker 1: and all of the she was, for lack of a
Speaker 1: better word, a beach growing up. And then when she
Speaker 1: when she grew up, she's all of a sudden really nice. No,
Speaker 1: I want her to be like the angry one in
Speaker 1: the family.
Speaker 2: Yeah. For example, I grew up with a little sister
Speaker 2: who was a paste off.
Speaker 1: My little sister. When she was a kid, she was
Speaker 1: just pissed. And guess what now she's super funny and
Speaker 1: really stands for justice in all times that doesn't isn't
Speaker 1: afraid to speak up. And Amy wasn't like that at all.
Speaker 1: She became a lame lady.

Speaker 2: Joe's sort of X yeah, but then death dies. That's
Speaker 2: the life she and Joe has to date this old
Speaker 2: German philosopher. Oh, speaking of a trade for don't say

Speaker 2: German man says please yourself to this girl, and I said,

Speaker 2: My a trage for wow. They are skipping over all
Speaker 2: the emotional peaks. Wow, which I'm excited to discuss with you.
Speaker 1: So interesting because I definitely did not feel like it
Speaker 1: skipped over emotional peaks. But I haven't seen that one,
Speaker 1: but I thought it hit a lot of emotional moments.
Speaker 1: We'll see perfect and excellent.
Speaker 2: Oh, let's let's burn off a curl into our next segment.
Speaker 2: How to pretend you've seen this? This is for you
Speaker 2: are at the ball in a new gown and Laurie
Speaker 2: comes up to you and says, you look like a slut.
Speaker 2: Your show was off like a slut. I had no
Speaker 2: idea I could see this much of you. You want
Speaker 2: everyone to see? Hello, doctor bangs, there's a slut in
Speaker 2: the house.
Speaker 1: Can you give bangs to her whole body?
Speaker 2: Cover her up a little? Does he talk about the
Speaker 2: movie at all?
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just that's all.
Speaker 2: No, it's crazy.
Speaker 1: And in order to stop in order to stop Laurie,
Speaker 1: is it LORI? In order to stop Laurie from slut
Speaker 1: shaming you. Even though he's not talking about the movie yet,
Speaker 1: he probably will. One thing that you can do is
Speaker 1: you can talk about a feminist film, which is little
Speaker 1: So here are a few things you can say to
Speaker 1: to pretend you've seen the film Little Women nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 2: Laurie, stop it, for I have seen Little Women in
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety four. And you may not know this, but
Speaker 2: that is a film that is on purpose Christmas. Great point. Now,
Speaker 2: who's the ho ho ho wow? Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: Okay, yes, Laurie, I've seen the film Little Women. Fun fact,
Speaker 1: Christian Bale's wife who he's actually been married to since
Speaker 1: getting married.
Speaker 2: Mm hm Okay.
Speaker 1: What I mean is many are that way. What I
Speaker 1: mean is it looks like he's had one spouse or
Speaker 1: this is his forever spouse. She was one Noona Ryder's
Speaker 1: personal assistant at the time of this film, and that's
Speaker 1: how they met. Wow, that's fun, a little bit of romance. Okay,
Speaker 1: I guess I'm just so suspicious of him.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I didn't care about any of those people before reading that,
Speaker 1: but that's still nice.
Speaker 2: Stop it, Laurie, because I've seen Little Women nineteen ninety
Speaker 2: four and when Amy as a child aka Kirsten Dunst
Speaker 2: says the line it's nothing but limes. Now, that was
Speaker 2: actually the first instance of brat summer. I think one
Speaker 2: of her limes lines. I think one of her lines
Speaker 2: is literally like.
Speaker 1: If you don't have, if you don't have, if you
Speaker 1: don't bring limes to school, you might as well be dead.
Speaker 2: And Beth is like taking notes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh wow, okay, eh, Yes, Laurie, I have seen
Speaker 1: the film Little Women nineteen ninety four. Fun fact, this
Speaker 1: is Claire Danes's first feature film debut, which is incredible.
Speaker 2: But this is her film.
Speaker 1: This is her feature film debut, which is amazing because
Speaker 1: she ate this up. And also Claire Dane's hair caught
Speaker 1: fire while carrying a candle up the stairs during filming.
Speaker 1: Oh so art imitates life because they burned one girl's
Speaker 1: hair off on.
Speaker 2: Screen and one off screen. Yes, yes, Laurie, I've seen
Speaker 2: Little Women nineteen ninety four. Please get out of my way.
Speaker 2: There's someone here tonight who promised to kiss me before
Speaker 2: I die, and I'll be damned if I don't find them.
Speaker 1: Yes, Laurie, I have seen the film Little Women nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety four. The set designer pattered the interiors after the
Speaker 1: layout of Orchard House, Louisa may Alcott's actual family home
Speaker 1: in Concord, Massachusetts. Apparently that is one of the most
Speaker 1: fun houses that you can go visit because they don't
Speaker 1: rope anything off. Maybe they do now, but my friend
Speaker 1: was telling me about it. Anyway, I want to go someday.
Speaker 2: Cool. That's right, that is fun. You know where else
Speaker 2: they don't rope anything off? Where Mickey's House at Disneyland.
Speaker 2: I met Mickey as a child and we got to
Speaker 2: go into his house and sit on everything. Even though
Speaker 2: it's historical, they don't rope it off. I don't think
Speaker 2: it's historic Mickey Mouse's House. No, I know it's not historical.
Speaker 2: You're the one being crazy. They don't rope a thing
Speaker 2: off in Mickey's house. I love you anywhere. If you
Speaker 2: think my family was not usually going to a museum
Speaker 2: and when I was a kid, you're wrong. I never
Speaker 2: got to sit on anything. So when we got to
Speaker 2: Mickey's house and I could sit down. Oh, Disneyland really
Speaker 2: is magical. Wow. Well, now that you have shoved Laurie
Speaker 2: through the hole in the ice into the frozen lake,
Speaker 2: we can write a manuscript into our next segment, should
Speaker 2: you watch this or where we think? Uh? Where we
Speaker 2: telling you if we think you should watch this movie
Speaker 2: or if you should do something else with your time? Seatta,
Speaker 2: what would you say? I think you could totally watch
Speaker 2: this movie. I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 1: I found it to be very fun as a Christmas watch.
Speaker 1: I just I didn't expect I thought it would be
Speaker 1: it would.
Speaker 2: Drag more or be more boring.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen any other one, but it really captured
Speaker 1: my attention.
Speaker 2: I loved the whole thing.
Speaker 1: I thought it was very sisterly directed by a woman.
Speaker 1: I thought it did a great job. Is there anything
Speaker 1: else I would recommend if you want to show it?
Speaker 1: It was kind of long, so if you wanted, it
Speaker 1: was a shorter experience. I guess you could read The
Speaker 1: Mother Daughter Book Club an entire book, but it's probably
Speaker 1: like in retrospect, probably maybe one hundred pages.
Speaker 2: Leanna, what about yourself? I would say, you don't have
Speaker 2: to watch Little Women in nineteen ninety four because you
Speaker 2: should instead watch Little Women twenty nineteen. Had a feeling
Speaker 2: you were going to say that. I don't know why.
Speaker 2: I knew if you're not in the mood for watching movies.
Speaker 2: Go bake a Christmas cookie because it's Chris. It's on
Speaker 2: purpose Christmas. It's on purpose Christmas. Ladies. Okay, ladies and fellas.
Speaker 2: Should we rate this film, which we forgot to do
Speaker 2: last week? We don't wait, Let's do it now. What
Speaker 2: would you rate Lady Chatterly's Lover? Oh? Yeah, Lady Chatterley's
Speaker 2: Lover two Chicks in a cage out of five. If
Speaker 2: I would watch it in another context, maybe it'd get
Speaker 2: closer to a four. But I can't go back in time. Leanna,
Speaker 2: what about would you? I would give Lady Chatterley's Lover
Speaker 2: five thumbs in a mouth five. I loved it great.
Speaker 2: And now, Sienna, what would you rate the film Little
Speaker 2: Women nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 1: I would give Little Women nineteen ninety four five charitable
Speaker 1: potatoes out of five. I enjoyed it so much. I
Speaker 1: think I loved the messages. I thought it was great.
Speaker 1: I just felt I felt so seen and held by
Speaker 1: this movie, and they killed it at the actic. Leanna,
Speaker 1: what about yourself?
Speaker 2: I will give Little Women nineteen ninety four two point
Speaker 2: five doctor bangs out of five. I really appreciate the feminism.
Speaker 2: I love a film direction a woman. I love a
Speaker 2: lot of women on screen. I do. I did not
Speaker 2: like how much older these men were, that these women
Speaker 2: were getting paired with. That made my skin crawl. And
Speaker 2: I think there's a version that did it better. Okay,
Speaker 2: And I was simply unable to not compare the two,
Speaker 2: and I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Well, fortunately we'll be able to directly compare them.
Speaker 2: Next we will post taste be comparing. Ah. Well that's
