The Princess Bride does not mean what you think it means? INCONCEIVABLE!
In today’s episode, Emily has some deep thoughts about the most quotable fairy tale ever written: The Princess Bride. Emily shares her theory that the film is both neurodivergent-friendly and a masterclass in brilliant storytelling–even though it miserably fails the Bechdel Test. Meanwhile, Tracie and Emily discuss the ways the film does Buttercup dirty and why she would have brained the R.O.U.S. under a different director.
Join us! We’ll have fun storming the castle and learning about the deeper meaning behind this eminently rewatchable film.
(Note: we had some issues with audio, especially Tracie's, in this episode. It's still worth the listen!)

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
