IHGB #385: Bachelor in Paradise Recap: “Deaded it”
Hello, everyone! This is Lara, and I am excited for you to listen to the show, even though this was one of the cringiest episodes in Bachelor in Paradise history. Was it the golden body shots that did me in? Or Captain Kim’s poem? Thank goodness it doesn’t really matter now. I’ve deaded it. Deaded. It.

IHGB #384: Bachelor in Paradise Recap: Hello Goldens
Hello, everyone! Well, this episode is a bit different for two reasons. First, I am not sharing the mic with Some Guy in Austin, and second, I’m not recording in Houston! I’ve taken the show on the road for vacation! But that doesn’t stop me from clapping alongside those lucky people who are trying to find love. Consider me Team Spencer and Jenn FOREVER! Now, about those goldens, I am all for those seventy-year-olds to find love, too. But do I want to see them making out on inflatable unicorns and do...

IHGB #383: Bachelor in Paradise – Episode 1
Hello, everyone! Bachelor in Paradise is BACK, and I’m here to tell you that I AM HERE FOR IT! Some Guy in Austin is still questioning the new format, but I am one hundred percent leaning into the chach factory that the new show runners have cooked up for us. In this episode, we cover love matches, love triangles, and lost love. We also discuss ways the rejected boys could have done things differently, such as having a conversation, not being a dork, and calming down. We’re looking at you, Hakeem. Bles...

IHGB #382: Bachelor in Paradise 2025 Cast
Hello, everyone! It’s been a minute since ABC aired a season of Bachelor in Paradise, and let me tell you, I am READY for the debauchery. As long as the golden bachelor and bachelorettes are more of a mentor situation, I’m here for the shenanigans that will unfold on the beaches of Costa Rica. Does Some Guy in Austin remember half of these people? No. But that’s why I’m here! In this episode, I’ll provide little tidbits of information to help you scourge your brain for any memory of these jokers.

IHGB #335 -- Bachelor Joey Recap Episode 6: Je M’appelle Claude
Hello, everyone! Je m’appelle Claude and I have officially reached the nervous status of our boy Joey. Has the Bachelor ever cried this early in a season because of all the feels he’s feeling? I know I’m the one who has been recapping this show for twenty-plus seasons, but I think that the forlorn pending angst typically hits our lead right around hometowns. This is TOO EARLY! Poor Joey has to take a beat. He’s forced to sit down on a bench in the middle of a gorgeous park somewhere in Canada and think about his future, s...

IHGB #334 -- Bachelor Joey Recap Episodes 4-5: Sausage Flying At My Face
Hello, everyone! Well, after two nights and four hours of Bachelor Joey, I’ve finally figured out that our boy loves all women and would gladly marry anyone. In this episode, Some Guy in Austin and I try to figure out how we can help Joey navigate this journey. Should extra points be given to: Women who can paint somewhat concentric circles Women who paint their bodies and roll around on a canvas Women who get zits from the stress of a two-on-one date Women who aren’t afraid of sausages flying at their face Poor Autumn. Here’s hoping the AB...

IHGB #333 -- Bachelor Joey Recap Episode 3: Lexi's Got Talent
Hello everyone! It’s episode 3 of The Bachelor, and Joey is already having to navigate a mean girl situation. The bad news is that the villain is extra spicy and a whole lotta clueless. The good news is that Maria was able to shut the nonsense down with one sentence. Some Guy in Austin and I marvel at Maria’s line and discuss several other important matters, such as: Can the art of kissing be considered a talent? What are the odds those women ate the KFC at the pool party? How mad was Jenn upon learning her one-on-one date was s...

IHGB #332 -- Bachelor Joey Recap Episode 2: It's Not Red Velvet
Hello, everyone! It's a great time to be covering The Bachelor! I've had so many listeners, readers, and friends approach me about Joey and how they are fully on board with his season! And I couldn't be more delighted. Some Guy in Austin and I break the second episode down with lots of laughs and lots of questions. For example: Is the official wardrobe of the season distressed mom jeans and neutral tops? Did Evalin suffer a concussion when she landed on her face after jumping over that table? Why did a bra-less Maria put on a bra and then...

Hello everyone! Todd and I have big thoughts about upcoming blockbusters, and we discuss in length what makes us nervous about some of our choices to watch this summer.

Can I let go of the fact that I can't stand underwater movies and just accept that Ariel is a mermaid, and that is where her story takes place?

Now, if one day I’m asked, I can report that it is a hop, skip, and jump over the Baltic Sea from Finland. This is big news, my friend. HUGE. Why? Because I also learned that Estonia is the perf...

I’m with my sister Jamie (who you may remember from the 80s movie podcast or the dance movie podcast) and we discuss our favorite greatest hits albums. For those of you who aren’t yet thirty years old, we explain exactly what a “greatest hits” album is in the opener. Never fear. We each chose a female artist, a male artist, and a group and explain why they deserve to be in the pantheon of greatest hits. Narrowing it down from a list of fifty, that is not an exaggerati...

IHGB #75 -- Famous Cowboys
Happy Thursday everyone! Today’s show is a little on the abstract side. Some Guy in Austin and I are talking about famous COWBOYS! I mean actual cowboys, songs about cowboys, movies about cowboys, what it takes to be a cowboy. And toward the middle of the show, you get an extra treat. In a rare moment Some Guy in Austin starts SINGING. If it wasn’t one of the best songs in the history of ever, I would have politely edited out. It turns out, when this song is performed BY ANYONE, I’m drawn in. Like young Lincee to Troy...

IHGB #73 -- Fall Movie Preview
Happy Thursday everyone! Today’s podcast is one of my favorites. I’m discussing upcoming fall movies with my friend Todd and there are A TON that make me smile and a few that make me scared. Sounds about right. There’s a famous astronaut, a creepy snake guy (no, thank you), a film that is already getting all sorts of Oscar buzz, and a certain British nanny who is supercalifragilisticexpealidocious. The fall 2018 movie lineup is looking G-O-O-D! EPISODE NOTES: Todd's Movie Pics: Bad Times at the El Royale First Man Bohemian Rhapsody Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald Welcome to Marwe...

IHGB #46 -- Dancing in Movies
I understand that this podcast title may be confusing. Let me explain: When listener Kara suggested this topic, I was validated because I’ve been circling it for a while. However I didn’t just want to do dance movies because most of my favorite dance movies are musicals. And I already did a podcast on musicals. (It was wonderful, by the way. You should listen!) But in Kara’s email to me, she phrased her suggestion as “dance scenes in movies.” It all clicked. I sashayed over to my phone, called my sister, and we had a solid list in five mi...

IHGB #17 -- Tony, Danny, or Bud - Who's your favorite Travolta?
When I asked Some Guy in Austin if he wanted our first non-Bachelor related podcast to focus on John Travolta, he shouted "YES" before I could finish my question. Needless to say, Tony, Danny, and Bud shaped my adolescent self in the '80s and the same can be said for my friend. We have a ball talking about our favorite John Travolta memories. Saturday Night Fever was formative for SGIA. Behold the power of disco: Can't you imagine SGIA dancing the same moves? Oh, you can't? Well here's a little video to help you visualize... We also discuss the...
