    2024/05/04

  • Ep 3 - Double Standard
    2024/03/01

    KB and Scout recap the episode Double Standard and discuss respect for sitcom acting, Lifetime programming, and how certain social attitudes apparently haven't changed in over 40 years.

    CW: The episode in discussion centers around attempted sexual assault, though it is often handled with comedy and the character who experiences it is given narrative agency over the situation.

  • Ep 2 - The New Girl Pt. 2
    2024/02/07

    Scout and KB continue with the second half of The New Girl! Our foursome's run-in with the law leaves them at the mercy of Mrs. Garrett. Will it be chaos or a perpetual slumber party? Why choose one when you can have both?

    CW: for more outdated body-shaming and references to celebrity men who were once greatly admired but have since been called out for criminal behavior.

  • Ep 1 - The New Girl Pt. 1
    2024/01/27

    KB and Scout kick off the main feed with part one of a two parter! This episode introduces Jo Polniaczek to the Eastland girls who managed to survive whatever Hunger Games scenario happened between seasons one and two.

    Reminder that we're covering season one over on our Patreon feed, but you can absolutely start your journey here because season two is when the show shaped into what ultimately carries on for the next seven seasons.

    CW: for light conversations about body image/dieting and some brief discussion of the sexualization of underage teen girls around this era (late 1970s-early 1980s).

  • Episode Zero: The Preview Special
    2024/01/06

    KB and Scout lay out their big plans for covering every episode of The Facts of Life.

    • Fact: There will be general episode recaps.
    • Fact: There will be conversations about subtext.
    • Fact: One can only plan a podcast so far before actually recording a few episodes.
    • Fact: This is a "zero episode" so the audio quality isn't quite dialed in, so thank you for being patient while we fine tune it for the future.
