On this very special holiday episode of Deep Thoughts, Emily and Tracie take a deeper look at the 1983 classic, A Christmas Story. The sisters discuss what is relatable in the sweet, funny tale of 9-year-old Ralphie’s quest for the coveted Red Ryder carbine-action, 200-shot range model air rifle, but they also talk about how casual racism, outdated gender dynamics, and a Yule-centric storyline casts a pall on the otherwise delightful nostalgia.

Emily and Tracie both have birthdays in February, so for our birthdays, we'd love it if you would come to our February Zoom Hangout. Tuesday, February 17, at 7:30 pm ET, 6:30 CT. Because podcasts are great, but they only go one way. RSVP to the party at https://www.guygirlsmedia.com/hangout
We are the sister podcasters Tracie Guy-Decker and Emily Guy Birken, known to our extended family as the Guy Girls.
We're hella smart and completely unashamed of our overthinking prowess. We love 80s and 90s movies and tv, science fiction, comedy, and murder mysteries, good storytelling with lots of dramatic irony, analyzing film tropes with a side of feminism, and examining the pop culture of our Gen X childhood for gender dynamics, psychology, sociology, religious allegory, and whatever else we find.
We have super-serious day jobs. For the bona fides, visit our individual websites: tracieguydecker.com and emilyguybirken.com. For our work together, visit guygirlsmedia.com
We are on socials! Find us on Facebook at fb.com/dtasspodcast and on Insta at instagram.com/guygirlsmedia. You can also email us at guygirlsmedia at gmail dot com. We would love to hear from you!
