Topics include America's Daddy, Pedro Pascal; the new Mr. Darcy; Falstaff and Frank from Shameless; an Irish Goodbye at the ER; don't get Cyrano'd by AI; what is Wooly Bully about (other than being a good punchline); Ron Howard is more nostalgic than Rian Davis; Why, Eugene Levy? Why?; Arrested Development or SVU?; Penn Badgley (again?!); the Bechdel test (again?!); feminist critique; mermaid cartographers and Lady Godiva; Richard Simmons; Slaughter House Five; Easy Bake Ovens; being disappointed in Pauline Kael; and toxic masculinity.
