    Episode 104: If You Don’t Love My Floppy Disk, You Don’t Deserve My Hard Drive

    In our journey through the DCOMs, we have been no stranger to having a good time up in space. Now, however, it is time for space to come to us! That’s right, we are reviewing the exceedingly weird and confusingly made Can of Worms. A film about desperately calling in some aliens because you think you are one, but then totally not meaning it. There’s a lot to unpack here, from some really impressively designed puppets to the truly baffling ways this film decided to tell this story. Luckily, for the first time in a while, we have a guest DCOMmentator coming along with us to help dig into all this alien mess! Emma has no idea what a doghouse looks like and forgets her favorite film.Lucas praises the production design and gets the bully’s name wrong a lot. Casey provides the key to this movie’s strange vibes.

    Episode 103: Do Androids Dream Of An Electric First Kiss?

    Error! Error! Error! Sorry gang, been dealing with a near-catastrophic computer issue on my end. Which is somewhat fitting given that How To Build A Better Boy is all about treading carefully when it comes to technology. Okay, it’s actually more about kissing technology, but…then again, it’s also really about friendship? Sigh. Look, this movie has a few different contrasting ideas going on inside of it, but it is actually pretty fun! Except for the ending which nearly manages to ruin the whole thing. You know, I’m starting to think I’m not selling this as well as I should. Just listen in to hear all about it yourself, got it?!Emma gets amped about camp and is definitely not dating an AI.Luke hates the main love interest and wishes Albert Brooks was here.

    Episode 102: The Fall Of Protozoa

    All right, all right, all right! It’s anniversary time again! We…okay yes, we know. Sorry, we screwed up a little bit and did this movie a month earlier than we should have. At least we figured it out after we recorded it. But, I mean, can you blame us? This is the one and only Zenon Kar we’re talking about! Capping off the Zenon trilogy is something we’ve been so excited to do for years, I guess we just couldn’t help ourselves. Which makes it a bit sad this movie is such a mixed bag. Find out why as we sort through everything Z3!Lucas is fine with moon colonization and a stickler for Greek mythology. Emma curses the name Ryan Murphy and just wants to be a hot winner. Talking Points: Trilogy Naming Conventions, How Far We’ve Come, 21st Century Retro-Futurism, The Z Contest, The Extreme Teen Supreme, Nobody’s Favorite Character: Cassie, Space Driver’s Test, The Sharpay Problem, Fake Driving Acting, Boring New Names, Stealing The Moon, Sage Borealis: Certified Weirdo, Disney Channel Doesn’t Understand The Adoption Process, Zenon Junior’s Age Weirdness, West Sweden, Moon Dreams, Sorry To This Man, That’s Just The Robot From Flubber, Hot Guys Are Essential To The Zenon Formula, A Very Tiny Puppy, Do Kids Know About Woodstock?, Somehow Almost Hitting Something In The Vast Emptiness Of Space, You Can’t Draft In Space, SUPER EASY; BARELY AN INCONVENIENCE, Moon Interference, Nostalgic For Bad CGI, The Utter Juicelessness of Cosmic Blush, Missing Microbe, No Laws On The Moon, We Intensely Investigate Zenon/Margie’s Feet, Commander Plank: The GOAT, The Uncomfortable Protozoa-Zenon Friendship, A Political Moon Prisoner, Protozoa Does Not Bomb, The Cheap-ass Rock Climbing Challenge, Don’t Keep Your Prisoners With Your Evil Plans, Zenon Kar: First Woman On The Moon, Alternate Moon Creatures, Keep Your Eye Out For Selener, The Wonderbus, Just Keep Making Zenon

    Episode 101: Dog Mischief 2 - Doggie Business

    After an unfortunate business trip-related delay, the DCOMedy crew is here and super ready to bark at ya about the lesser-known DCOM Hounded. A lot of this movie really doesn’t work on paper, but somehow it manages to come together and actually be somewhat enjoyable? Though, to be fair, a lot of that is thanks to some stellar performances and pretty decent gags. Plus a true doggie star being born right before our eyes. Even if she is technically a puppet for like half of the movie… Emma picked up some UK slang and shares her self-care routine (unfortunately).Luke is not built for military school and demands to know if two characters are dating.Talking Points: The Lost Art of Dog Puppetry, The Short Film Within This DCOM, Dead Dad Memorabilia, Shia LaBeouf Is Unfortunately Very Good, Two Non-Disabled People Talk About What Makes Good Wheelchair Representation, Freezing Cold Announcements, The Height of Luxury in 2001: Your Own Phoneline, 1.

    Episode 100: The Great Bikini Investigation

    Wow can you believe we actually made it to 100 regular episodes (and that we still managed to put it out late)?! Well if Cloud 9 has taught us anything, it’s that nothing’s impossible…and also to not believe all the men in your life who don’t believe in you. I know that sounds like I’m extrapolating excess meaning from a children’s movie but no, that’s literally a big part of this story. It also contains possibly the most sexually charged scene ever aired on Disney Channel which we will definitely be acting normal about.Emma is fascinated by fascinators and continues to be in love with Dove.Luke refuses to learn the names of side characters and is strict about cheating.Talking Points: This Movie Should Be Better, Spiritually Too Long, Too Many Characters, Terrible GoPro Footage, The Curious Case Of The Mute Friend, THE CRAZY CHARACTER NAMES, The Ski Resort Has A Dog Kennel?, This Is Lowkey A Hallmark Movie, Will St. Cloud, Nick Swift’s Villainy, The Crazy Teen Party, When Is Fire And Ice?!, The Surprisingly Not Dead Mom, Sign Humor, A Totally Avoidable Tangent About PBS Programming, Dog Mischief/Messes, How Could The Competitions Have Been Rigged?, A Disney Channel Appropriate Sports Injury, The Unnecessary Bargain Hunting Plotline, Sigh…Skye Sailor, The Bitch-off, Weirdly Bad Montages, A Lack of Flirty Coaching, A Delayed Chekov’s Mountain, Nothing Is Impossible…I Guess?, Shouldn’t This Be Will’s Redemption?, Avalanche!, A Completely Uncalled For Dissection Of St. Bernard’s In Media, Strange Hand Flirting, The Most Immobile Kiss Ever Filmed, The Weird Twist/Fake-Out, Ripping Off Brink, This Podcast Is Only For Maniacs And Shredders, An Elaborate Sled Ruse, The Most Infamous DCOM Cliché

    Episode 99: Listen To The Rastafarian Peanut Man

    Alright, who’s finally ready to get a little nuts?!?! Actually, wait, that doesn’t make any sense if you haven’t watched this month’s movie. To be fair though, most of the stuff in this DCOM will come as a surprise based on what one would expect from The Proud Family Movie. For some reason, this movie just couldn’t resist the temptation to take the show’s cast on a vacation…and the decisions only get weirder from there. So take a journey with us and the entire Proud Family to the somewhat uncomfortable in 2025 Legume Island as we unpack our final DCOM based on a show! Luke shares some animation intuition and still doesn’t know popular musicEmma demands the formu-oli and continues to hate the show-based movies.Talking Points: Proud Family Memories, Jokes Not For Children, Weird/Unnecessary CGI, The Basketball Superstar Based Economy, What Is Going On With Zoey, Fifteen Cent and the Spare Change Dancers, Oscar Proud’s Weird Business Acumen, A Hostile Mother-Son Relationship, Sneaking Stuff Past Disney Channel, Shoutout To Debbie Allen, We Stan Rappers Who Respect Women, Unnecessary Disguises, Trying To Understand Bebe and Cece Conceptually, Is This Island Racist?, A Brief Tangent About Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo, An Additional Tangent About Fantasy Island, Papi Boulevardez Is Da Joker Baby, A Jacuzzi Sex Joke In A DCOM, Disney Channel Level Torture, A Very Convoluted Villain Plan, DCOM Cinematic Inspiration, Clone Quirks, Be Careful What You Wish For!, This Sport Looks Sick, Nobody Asks Any Questions, George Washington Carver Did Not Invent Peanut Butter, The Dumbest Villain Origin Ever, KEITH DAVID IS HERE NOW?!, The Yach-t, Give Us More Gross Sisters, The Terrible Villain Song, Peanut People Dance Battle, How Many Clones Are There?, Penny Does Music I Guess?, The Absolutely Unhinged Epilogue

    Episode 98: The Real Boogeyman Is Leukemia

    Sorry this is a little late, your intrepid hosts have been super out of it lately. Our sleep patterns keep getting seriously messed up because somebody keeps pranking us and setting our clocks forward! Don’t worry though, you know we wouldn’t let you go without a little spookiness even though our movie this month isn’t set on Halloween! That’s right, we are not technically looking at a Halloween movie…but it is still regarded as possibly Disney Channel’s scariest endeavor of all time. Not wanting to spoil anything, but we kind of agree. So be sure to listen to the title’s warning and Don’t Look Under The Bed! Emma won’t stop talking about NCIS and pitches some disgusting jokes.Luke doesn’t understand swimmers and hates kissing (for non-racial reasons).Talking Points: Impressively Scary, The Downfall of America, Boogeyman Election Interference, Stellar Score/Sound Design, Celebrating Our Heroes, A Brief Return of DCOM News, Family Naming Conventions, The Jaws of DCOMs, The Parents’ Interesting Vibes, A Pointless Argument About Tolkien, The Disappearing Jo, Why Does This Teacher Have A Dead Bird?, Larry Houdini: The GOAT, A Logical Explanation For Everything, So Many Eggs, DCOM Olympics Coverage, Say No To AI: Save Water For Doing Bits, The Boogeyman Went To Home Depot, Imaginary Prop Comedy, Our Main Character Genuinely Seems To Be Losing Their Mind, A Nightmare In Middleburg, Why Does Everyone Know About Mass Hypnosis?, Fairy Foreshadowing, The Boogey Book, Guidance Counselors Aren’t Trained For Much, The Impossible To Pronounce Temp-Tri-Fuge, A Second And More Pointless Argument, Imaginary Friend Sexism, BOOGEY GOO, The Mother’s Bust, Somehow We Touch On 9/11 Again, The Boogey World, The Return Of Everyone’s Favorite Segment, You’ve Gotta Be Real In The Boogey World, The World’s Strongest Sock, Stuff For Little Boys vs. For Little Girls, Gender Is A Boogey Construct, How Larry Says Goodbye

    Episode 97: An After School Special With Slurs

    Well, it’s that time once again everyone. That’s right, we’re gonna get little political on DCOMedy this month. Because we have got a spirited discussion all about The Color of Friendship, which dared to teach kids about why Apartheid was wrong. And we are definitely the perfect people to unpack that! In all seriousness, We’ve gotten used to the rare DCOM that really has something to say and doesn’t shy away from the harsh truths of its message. So we thought we knew what to expect! We did not expect all the slurs though. So…yeah. Oh, wait. Should I say content warning for racism? I mean that’s kind of the whole point so I think it kind of goes without saying. But just in case: FYI, there’s a lot of racism on display with this one. Emma has some pronunciation issues and went to Soulcycle.Luke is ignorant of accents and tries to whitesplain Roots.Talking Points: Yikes…But Not Yikes?, A DCOM Period Piece, Montage Failure, The Weird History/Mystery, One Little Saltine, Our Own Foreign Exchange Experience, The Jarring Dialogue, Clippy Did Apartheid, DCOMedy Says: Apartheid Was Bad, Perfectly Casting A Racist, Dying For Flora’s Inner Monologue, Stop Being Such A Know-It-All Mahree, WEAVER BIRDS/WEAVER SISTERS, Blurs or Slurds?

    Bonus Episode 9: It's Wango Tango, Baby!

    Well, well, well, what do we have here? It’s been another year of DCOMedy, but definitely not a full year of episodes (thanks 2025 for being such a challenging year). So how should we celebrate our show being another year older? I mean Disney itself has seen fit to return to a certain gem of our childhoods, so why don’t we as well?! That’s right, to celebrate our anniversary in a new way, and to commemorate the release of Freakier Friday this year, we thought we’d take a look back on a film that in many ways is a perfect time capsule of the early 2000s. So strap in because it is Friday and it’s time for us to get freaky…non-sexually of course (except the movie is kind of weirdly sexy?).Emma has no notes and refuses to stop singing along.Luke questions his sister’s crushes and reflects on their childhood.Talking Points: Our Best Jesse Pinkman Impression, Sequel Speculation, A Certified Emma Episode, Soundtrack Slappage, Jamie Lee And LiLo Killing It, A Mother/Daughter Story, The Pierce Brosnan Connection, A Closed Luke, A Family Stone Debate, The Vibes Are Wonderful, Adult Vs.

    Episode 96: Every Possible Wrong Decision

    Hello, everyone. I beg your pardon if the following lacks the usual frivolity and humor we try to inject into our episode descriptions. That is because we have neither at this time. You see, we are finally here to discuss the Kim Possible 2019 reboot/remake DCOM and it has sucked any positive emotions from us entirely. I will slightly spoil the end of this one for you, this is unanimously the worst film we have ever reviewed on the show. It fails not only as its own movie, but completely misses out on the things people enjoyed about the source material. If you are interested in listening to us be slowly worn down as we try and discuss it all before eventually crashing out, then by all means tune in!Luke does wrong by his favorite villain and finally gets to vent about this movie.Emma admits she is not a perfect feminist and discovers things about herself.Talking Points: Nothing But Love For Kim Possible, Super-spies Were Having A Moment, Who Is This For?, Kim Possible Sucks In This, Original Creator Intent, Fashion Disasters, Way Too Much Wade, The Parents Aren’t Important, Just Be A Basic Average Girl, You Can’t Do Drakken And Shego In Live Action, The Original Cast Is Incredible, Character Silhouettes, Bad Bonnie, Why Take Away Her Cheerleading?!, The Funny Signs Return, Ron Stoppable’s Massive Dong, No One Cares About Kim Doing Soccer, Drakken’s Really Stupid Plan, Kim Possible’s Mojo Baby, Kim & Ron Don’t Feel Like BFFs, ATHENA: GOD’S GREATEST MISTAKE, Analogy Skit Work, The Next Floor Below Rock Bottom, Things That Get Stuck In Our Craw, Shoutout To Claire Sawyer: Future Lawyer, A Galaxy Quest Tangent, A Way Too Long Discussion About Christy Carlson Romano’s Unfortunate Shooting Accident, That Mole Rat Ain’t Right!, Ron’s Not Allowed To Do Anything In This Movie, Locking Kim Possible In A Box To Scream And Cry While Someone Else Does All The Cool Stuff, The Plural Of Staff Is Staves, Nana…Possible?, Athena Day, So Obviously Evil The Whole Time, Everything’s The Drama, Kim Possible Is Not The Hero Of This Movie, Missed Merch Opportunities, A Supremely Unsatisfying Ending

    Episode 95: We Simply Lose Our Minds

    Well, you know what they say, there’s no Christmas like a late Christmas! What are you talking about, I’ve definitely heard people say that. Anyway, uh, we are finally celebrating the holidays with the way-too-big Duncan Family as we follow their misadventures in Good Luck Charlie, It’s Christmas! Your intrepid hosts knew very little about this show going in, other than it stars one of the best people to ever grace Disney Channel…and one of the worst. Plus we just kinda talk about theme park stuff at the end like we do sometimes now. So enjoy your extremely delay Christmas present; better late than never!Luke is bad at reading women and puts some money on the lineEmma only wants to talk about one thing and tries to start a conspiracy podcast.Talking Points: The Show-Based DCOM Track Record, Mendheads 4 Lyfe, Charlie Do Be Cute Tho, Teddy Isn’t The Oldest?, Why Is She Making Vlogs?

    Bonus Episode 8: Will This Scar A Child?

    We’re back…kinda? Yeah, sorry. Things have been a bit of a mess behind the scenes lately, but we didn’t forget about you! To make up for our recent lack of DCOM coverage, it seemed like the perfect time to do a bonus episode! Remember when we used to do those? This time however, we’re going farther back than we’ve been before and talking about one of the classics of WTF children’s cinema: The Neverending Story! Zach (@chinchymcchilla) from Teenagers With Attitude (@TeensWithTude) will be your guide, since he was actually a child during the era this thing decided to implant itself in the minds of kids forever…whether they wanted it to or not.Luke has some Titanic takes and has a plethora of favorite characters.Zack revisits his childhood (because he’s old) and never forgets a pair of breasts.Talking Points: Recording Difficulties, Just The Right Amount of Weird, Pacing Problems, Metaphors And Vagueness, The Beginning Doesn’t Matter, Movies Just Had Theme Songs Sometimes, Bastian’s Sad Little Life, The Repressed Dad’s Insane Morning Routine, Adaptation Oddities, Movie Bullies, The Most Obvious Magical Store Of All Time, This Child Has Not Read LOTR, You Don’t Want No Part Of This, This Child Is Breaking Too Many Rules, The Most Insane Attic Of All Time, Dropping You Right In, The Rock Biter Rules, The Nothing Is…Nothing?, The Night Hob Is Jacked, The Important Meeting Of Weirdos, Poorly Aged Coding/Casting, The Deepest V You’ve Ever Seen, The Child(like?)

    Episode 94: Desperately Hating Sasspen

    Ah, it’s a tale as old as time. Boy meets girl, they decide they’d rather have each other’s lives, then their attachment to their cellphones means that magic is real and can totally swap their bodies. Hmm…actually that part is all new, and it must mean we are covering The Swap! That’s right, this year might almost be over (despite the fact that this episode is actually for November), but we’ve gotta watch these two try and get back in their bodies first. And, wouldn’t you know it, it actually ends up being way more compelling than most body-swap stories you might be familiar with. Listen in to find out how! Emma has Wicked brain rot and retells her romantic history. Luke is really Lasso-pilled and takes a stand on his towel usage.

    Hey, so did you guys know that November is actually only thirty days long and the day that I planned on posting is actually December? Crazy. Uh, anyway…there’s no easy way to do this…time for Halloween! Yes, take a quick jump back with us as we talk some Twitches. It’s finally time for the Mowry twins to shed a little light on our dull podcast world (like the sun and the moon one could say) as we discuss just how wonderful their performances are in an otherwise kinda bonkers movie. What can ya say, these girls somehow make it all work. Go Twitches, Go Twitches, Go Twitches! Emma is willing to kill her brother and goes too deep on the Twitches Wiki. Lucas isn’t familiar enough with Eddy Murphy’s films and stans Lucinda’s vibe.

    Episode 92: The Emotions Stick

    Thank you for your patience everyone! It’s finally time to end the Summer of Sequels…in October. Oh, wait. It’s actually November now, huh? Sorry we kinda skipped Spooky Season, but before we can catch up we still have to give a certain band of brothers their time to shine. That’s right, the Lawrence Bros. are back, and this time the whole trio’s here! Indeed, Matthew Lawrence joins his brothers for this one as they journey down under to fight off a band of modern day pirates while trying to survive on a deserted island! I promise it isn’t as cool as it sounds on paper. Lucas won’t shut up about his research and fails at accents like always. Dylan is too excited about these brothers and defends the TV show Lost.

    Episode 91: The Peak of Cringe Mountain

    Wow! Life is really crazy, huh? You start out thinking your big anniversary episode is just gonna be a little bit late because you had to push your recording back, and then you have a bunch of computer problems that make it take longer! Well, it may pretty much be Fall at this point, but we aren’t ready to leave Summer Camp yet. We still have to dive into the climactic finale to the Camp Rock saga at the The Final Jam. How will our favorite campers fare against their new rivals? What is going on with Shane and Mitchie’s relationship? Will the soundtrack continue to be filled with wall-to-wall bangers? Listen in and prepare to be disappointed by the answers to all of these questions…and more! Emma stands up for her girl Peggy and reads a lot of Wikipedia on air. Lucas knows a virtuoso any day and is shocked by his sister’s maturity.

And this time it is bigger than ever, as we have movies across multiple seasons all competing against one another…a classic Battle Royale if you will. So join us as we make some difficult choices, try to justify our own bad opinions, go off on a fair number of tangents, and do our absolute best to give you the ultimate celebration of what makes all the DCOMs so exciting to talk about! Which isn’t the same as all of them being good, but you have to take what you can get in this world. Emma worries she has brain trauma. Luke needs to explain himself.

    Episode 90: My Brain Hurts

    Woah, sorry gang! We were having a little too much fun at the beach and I guess we forgot to put this episode out on time. Although you can’t really blame us, we needed some rest and relaxation after everything this movie put us through. You see, Teen Beach 2 is by no means the worst movie we have ever watched, but it is possibly the strangest? Trust us, you will struggle to comprehend almost every single thing that happens in it and be left with only a wicked headache to show for it. So if you were hoping for some simple summery vibes, then I’d recommend looking elsewhere… Emma can’t see anything and gets called out for her prejudices. Lucas reveals his shameful South Park past and is a Chee-Chee stan. Talking Points: Dropping The “Movie”, Dropping The Calvin-Ball, Grease 2, Better Sequel Ideas, Soundtrack Sins, The Wasted Ensemble, Continuity Confusion, California v.

    Episode 89: RRR – Rhea’s Rad Revenge

    Sorry this one needed a couple extra days in the lab, but here is the final mix all about Spin! We may have been skeptical about this DCOM being able to land with us, but we ended up having a great time. At least we did when we weren’t forced to waste time talking about pizza drones and restaurant management. Though really, this is a story about one thing: revenge. It’s always satisfying to see a cocky British man get his comeuppance, and my god do they nail that here. It’s a story all about love, grief, creativity, family…and yes DJing. There is a lot of DJing so be prepared for that. Luke knows an Aussie when he hears one and faces his future. Emma really wants to play Beetlejuice music and will deport you. Talking Points: Good Movie But Bad Title, A Celebration of Spite, One Friend Too Many, The Next Zendaya?, Is This Canada?, What Is This Pen-Kid’s Deal?, Don’t Watch This Movie Hungry, A DCOM About Child Labor, Crypto Burn, DJ Luka Cent, Dinner And A Show, THE SHERLOCK HOLMES TANGENT, Watson’s Vibe, The Rarest Combination: Nice/Popular, What Exactly Is Coding Club?, Too Much Business, Brought To You By Big Pizza, An Unfortunate Representation Choice, Blacklight Parties, They Actually Teach Us About DJing, Max Needs To Read The Room, Listen To Your Ancestors Rhea, Mommy Issues, A Very Cute Montage, Dating Your Student’s Parents, Black Horse And The Cherry Tree Remix, Feelin’ So Good You Miss Your Shift, Going To A Restaurant For Literally One Bite, Arvind Loses Us, A Same-day Baby Shower, The Festival of Color Really Pops, A (Partially) Unexpected Turn, Load-Bearing Eldest Daughter, One Of The Best Heart To Hearts In DCOM History, Why Wait To Give Her A Message From Her Dead Mom?, The Weird Video Collecting Montage, DCOMedy Correction Segment, Give The Girl A Fun DJ Name!, Male “Apologies”, We All Know The Girl Wins, Mimosas And Samosas

    Episode 88: Emma vs. Luke 3 - Rise of RuPaul

    Sigh…here we are again. It seems as though the Zombies saga will never end, and our intrepid hosts are forever destined to continue talking about it. Even when one of them really doesn’t want to and it’s kind of, sort of, maybe, not really a DCOM! So, do what you can to prepare yourselves for our coverage on Zombies 3. There’s aliens now, and one of the main characters is basically just a screen being held up by a robot. If that level of insanity surprises you, then you are clearly new around these parts. Welcome! If it doesn’t, then you have no one to blame but yourself for actually wanting to listen to this. Emma is not okay and did way too much independent research. Luke will gladly let you scan his privates and can’t stand a certain twist.

    Episode 87: Go Home, Henry

    Well, well, well, it appears the spooky season is upon us once again! So prepare yourselves, mortals for…huh? This episode is actually for March? And it ended up being late so it’s coming out in April and so now it is even further divorced from October? Hm. Uh, okay then. So, despite all of that, we are still gonna be talking about Girl Vs. Monster here I’m afraid. Speaking of fear, this movie’s all about it! Namely in regards to a bunch of monster hunting that definitely isn’t just Ghostbusting, and getting over your stage fright to perform in what turns out to basically be a musical? It’s a wild one, gang. Luke stans his beloved and joins the men’s rights movement. Emma is all about Myra and jams out with the music.

    Episode 86: A Dark Twisted Dance Past

    Yes, dear listeners. I can hear you all now. “What’s this?! an episode being out at a normal time for once?! How can this be?!” Well, it’s just one of the many thing you can accomplish when you open yourself to the power of three little words: SI SE PUEDE! Not every lesson in Gotta Kick It Up rings as true as that one, but more of this film holds up than could be expected of it. While not everything is as strong as it should be, it definitely could be seen as being more than the some of its parts. So, what are you waiting for? Hop in a car, being driven by essentially a stranger without telling your loved ones, and enjoy! This movie makes that seem totally okay to do, so you’ll be fine. Emma does some hambone and worries about these girls’ safety. Luke has a new energy for this one and largely regrets it by the end. Talking Points: No Cheerleading Here Surprisingly, Not a Lot of America, HOW OLD ARE THESE GIRLS?!, Poor Marisol, A School Store Unlike Any Other, Stand And Deliver Light, A Single Mom Who Works Too Hard, The Dot-Com Bubble, How Easy Is It To Become A Teacher?, The West Wing Embargo Continues, High School Drama Club Stories, The Tragedy of Chuy, The Dance Team Sucks, Super Minor Rules Being Dealbreakers, This Gym Scene Is A Trainwreck, Has Shop Class Ever Existed?, Some Confusing Audition Choices, The Previous Coach’s Sudden Disappearance, It’s Hard Making Dance Look Good Or Bad, What Did She Teach You All?, Disney Would Never Let Them Do This…Right?, Shawshank And Sweet Potatoes, The Easiest Problem To Solve, The Most Biased Judge, Julliard Must Have Really Sucked, This Fight Is Totally Out of Nowhere, A Very Long Story About Our Dad Almost Dying, This Car Wash Slaps, She Should Have Taken Another “Internet Job”, Why/How Did You All Lose Your Pom-Poms?!, Super Abrupt Ending, We Just Kind Of Chat For Awhile

    Episode 85: No Conflicts, Just Vibes

    I know, I know, it’s been quite a while fam. But….we are so freaking back! We might be a little rusty, and not super clear about how any of this stuff usually works, but luckily we aren’t taking the stage alone. That’s right, it’s extremely fortuitous for us that everyone’s favorite girl group happen to be staging their grand comeback as well. You guessed it, The Cheetah Girls are here and we are going to SPAIN! Come along as we strut down the streets of Barcelona, meet the locals, and cause a riot with the most chaotic and frenetic concert ever performed. Oh, and rhyme a lot of Spanish words with “Cheetah”. Luke battles through illness and missed out on some crazy extras. Emma sings most of the soundtrack and disrespects a mall. Talking Points: We’re Back!

    Episode 84: Navajo Herbs And Spices

    Sorry about the schedule slippage, but we’ve got just the home remedy. It’s the perfect mixture of a season finale and a the return of a longtime guest! That’s right, Dyllan has returned to help us wrap up our season by chatting all about Buffalo Dreams. A film none of us really wanted to touch, but here we are. So why don’t you journey along with us to weigh-in on the vicious land feud between some white mountain bikers and the Native Americans whose land these “dirtheads” continually trespass on. Luckily, I think that if history any indication, this thing will work out with no issues on either side. Luke shares the younger sibling experience and pays for a character’s actions. Emma can’t stand Scout’s muteness and shares her weight loss secrets.   Dyllan meets his old nemesis once again.

    Episode 83: In Todd We Trust

    Ready yourselves listeners. For as long as anyone can remember, a war has been raging between the settlements of East and West Appleton. Now, the final chapter in this war is fast approaching. The battlefield? A bowling alley. It’s soldiers? A bunch of absolute lunatics who are obsessed with the 1950s. Normally I’d say it is cooler than it sounds on paper, but not so much with this one. We were really excited to dig into Alley Cat’s Strike! since so many seem to remember it quite fondly, but it ended up being a bit of a gutterball in our opinion…. Emma brings back her signature segment and relives her past. Lucas feels like he’s on crazy pills and finds his ideal afterlife. Talking Points: A Classic…Stinker?, The Deadly Apple Drinking Game, Our Strange Heroes, Team Todd All Day, East And West: The Ultimate Rivalry, FREEZE FRAMES: THE ULTIMATE VILLAIN, A Wild Kaley Cuoco Appears (With Her Original Nose), Unnecessary Friends, Thrift King Alex, The Worst Diner I’ve Ever Seen, Big Wisconsin Energy, The Most Ridiculous Competition, No Beef Necessary, Everybody Loves Sweet Lou, Terrible ADR, Debbie Desperado, Whipsaw McGraw, The Ultimate Prank, Why Does Everyone Doubt The Bowling Team?, The Real Alley Cat Strike, Crazy Bowling Animations, The Jazz Pattern, Upping The Ante, Behind The Scenes Trivia, An Absolutely Sick Non-Alcoholic Teen Party, Bowling Computer Simulations, Guppy Troup, Poor Bubba, The Ivan Drago School Of Bowling, No Way That School Is Getting Finished In Time, Terrible Fake Bowling, A Confusing Ploy, Sucked In By The Swing, What Exactly Is “Real” Bowling?, Singing For Your Supper, Cool Cats/Hot Dogs, Doing Local Radio Ads, Betrayal With No Fallout, The Shades Stay On, Disappointing T-shirts, Unnecessary Tarps, Anti-Climactic Conflict Resolution, “Tragic” Backstories, Bowling on Crutches, The Worst Entrance Ever, Pulling One’s Ball, The Absolutely Baffling Final Competition, Unleashing The Chaos Gremlin

    Episode 82: Creepy Nightmare Hole

    Whoops! Sorry we were a little late on this one, hope it didn’t turn your world upside-down or anything. Then again, I kind of hope we did because this episode is about everything upside-down! That’s right we are going back to Modern Movie May (in June?) for Upside-Down Magic. So join us as we enter a magical world…I think? Like, it’s not super clear how magical the world actually is or how much people know about it. Also the “magic” isn’t so much like spells and is more like superpowers? I understand that doesn’t sound THAT enticing, but it’s mostly more than the sum of its parts. Lucas nails his kitten impression and stans his man Skriff. Emma can’t stand Reina and accuses a character of Nazism.

    Episode 81: Be Kind To The Blind

    Content Warning: Due to topics within the film it is discussing, this episode contains topics relating to eating disorders and bullying people with disabilities. Listener discretion advised. Hey there! Thought we forgot about you, huh? Don’t worry, we may have been delayed for quite a while, but we are finally ready to go to the mat with you all! Although by “being ready” I actually mean we are woefully unequipped to cover most of this movie’s subject matter. Luckily for you all, that has literally never stopped us before. So come on and listen in to us try and do the best we can…and still probably failing pretty hard! Emma refuses to acknowledge “Fly” and finds her new political platform. Luke definitely has a film degree and doesn’t get the weight classes.

    Episode 78: *Sigh* Brendy Bru Bromecoming Warrior

    My dear audience, it’s finally time (after a small delay) to face your destiny and hear all about the greatest warrior of a generation…the one and only: Wendy Wu! It’s a movie that many remember fondly, including one of the hosts, but there is a lot going on here. Frankly the whole thing has left us a little shook, but take a listen and find out for yourself everything this movie has to offer. Oh, and don’t ask about why this episode has such a lame title. All questions of that nature can be directed to Emma. Luke gets to flex his power ranger knowledge and feels a little embarrassed. Emma gives some culinary insight and feels cheated out of the big dance.

    Episode 77: Canada's Most Decorated Actor

    Y’all ready for this? We’ve got one more episode for you before we slip into the New Year and it’s all about two things: Judaism and Basketball. That’s right, Full Court Miracle brings together that classic dynamic duo once again. Come along with us, and our new guest Louie, to the City of Brotherly Love as we witness a miracle take place before our very eyes. Not so much all the oil lasting long and lighting stuff, but more so that one man is able to make 5 teenagers championship basketball players in approximately one month’s time. Oh, and they think he’s a ghost. It’s a whole thing. Emma acknowledges your tweets and shows off her training. Lucas creates a drinking game for once and feels very proud of himself.

    Episode 76: No Take Twos

    Ahoy! We may have been a little delayed in our travels, but your intrepid hosts are finally headed aboard the S.S. Tipton for their next cinematic adventure. That’s right, it’s time for everyone’s favorite troublesome twins to take center stage in The Suite Life Movie. Oh, what hijinks ensue with these two rocking the boa…huh? Oh, again?! Fine. Once again, very little of this film actually takes place in the show’s usual setting and instead finds the Martin brothers…wait, what? No, that can’t be what happens. Like, that’s pretty out there even for most of these movies based on Disney Channel shows. Just listen for yourselves audience, I don’t think anything I write will do it justice. Lucas is let down by his heroes and remembers his love for London. Emma gets more evidence for her theory and continues her dolphin propaganda.

    Episode 75: The Title Says It All

    Sorry we couldn’t get this to you in time for Halloween, my internet connection fell into a bit of a vampire trance it would seem. Anyway, I hope you’ll still allow us to belatedly celebrate Disney Channel’s favorite time of year, when they can flex their monopoly on spooky movie vibes. Only problem is…they have too many! We needed help deciding what to watch and enlisted you all to help via twitter poll. So now, as voted by you, we are joining the Hansen family as they have a night on the town…for better or worse. See, everyone’s dealing with one simple fact: Mom’s Got A Date With A Vampire! Emma can’t get over a line delivery and delivers some breaking news.

    Episode 74: Nonstop References To Horse Death

    Giddyup y’all! We’ve got another horse-based film for you this month, as we take a look at Ready to Run. In many ways, it feels like a pretty standard story about a child coming of age and taking on the world of sports the same way their father did before he died. Except…sigh…there is a particular thing that happens in this movie that ruins the whole thing and…why am I trying to keep things vague? The horses freaking talk gang! No one will care if I spoil that, right? It’s kind of important to our discussion so…head’s up. Emma loves Seabiscuit and is telling you to Don’t Worry Dohring. Lucas wants more stakes/investment and just now gets the Jeremy Renner app. Talking Points: Disney+ Acquisition, Subverting Expectations…But Badly, Sinbad Must Have Had A Terrible Agent, Horse Names, Gun Censorship, Researching the Patriarchal Jockey Community, The Cartoonishly Evil Villain, Everything Is Around the Racetrack, Toothpick Gambling, A Horse Loose At Carl’s Jr, Low Effort Talking Animals, Stud Farms, Pointless Moody’s Sweet Tricks, The Worst Financial Decision of All Time, Spooking A Horse Into Greatness, Obvious Flirting, The Rhythm of the Horse, The Terrible Soundtrack, Casually Dropping A Deeply Sad Story, How Does a Horse Wear Headphones?, The Viral Appeal of A Headphone-Wearing Horse, A Man Intimidating a Horse, Everyone’s Favorite Segment, The Worst Kept Secret, A Psychic Link With a Horse, The Worst Rescue Attempt Ever, A Pointless Amount of Money, A Solid Heart-to-Heart, Road Trip!, The French/British Announcer, Gamer Girl Headphones, The “Twist”: Horse Spectators, WHO IS CRUMPY, Inconsistent Horse Colors, The Actual Twist, Yelling At An Official, Undercutting The Entire Journey, DJ’ing for Horses, The Kinsey Scale vs. The Dohring Scale, Get Your Votes In For Halloween!

    Episode 73: Goldenthroat, This Is Jazz Square

    WHAT TIME IS - Ahem. Sorry, I should show some restraint. There’s enough of our ecstatic energy poured into every single second of this episode to power a city, I should keep things chill in the description. Hello everyone. We are so excited to be starting this season off with a crowd favorite, the summertime sequel to the cultural phenomenon of HSM. Did it live up to the original? Does it stand on its own as- AHHH OF COURSE! THIS MOVIE IS SO GOOD!!! INJECT IT INTO MY VEINS!!! Luke feels more alive than ever before and is being given nothing.

    Episode 72: The Damp Bandits 2 - Lost in the City

    All right audience, your parents have gone out for the evening and left you in our capable hands. Don’t worry, because we have a super-fun night planned for you! We’re gonna play games, make snacks, and we’ll read you a bedtime stor-huh? You’d rather we just talk your ears off all about the 2016 kinda sorta remake of Adventures in Babysitting? Well okay, just so long as you get to bed on time! Emma needs to stop being so suspicious and relives sneaking out at age four.

    Episode 71: She's Not Like Other Girls!

    All right, all right, all right everyone! There is one heck of a battle ready to unfold in front of you. Us two killer MCs are gonna tear down not each other, but everything that the film Let It Shine is throwing at them. There’s certainly a lot of things to diss considering it is trying to an adaptation of a classic play with teen drama, be a musical, have deep religious theming, and have some hip-hop thrown in there for good measure. One thing for sure though, we are definitely the most appropriate people to handle all of that. Lucas knows everything about rap and can’t get over the creepiness factor. Emma gets wrapped up in the music and takes us to church.

    Episode 70: Guys, 9/11 JUST Happened

    Ahoy everyone! Join us up on the main deck as we discuss Tiger Cruise, a fun little movie about kids getting into trouble on board a Navy aircraft carrier. Doesn’t that sound like a fun little movie for us to cover on the Fourth of July? Well guess what, that movie doesn’t exist. Instead, this movie is really all about children confronting the September 11th Terrorist Attacks. The whole experience was a lot, but I think we were able to put together something for you all that isn’t a total bummer to listen in on. Emma celebrates her president and is not immune to propaganda. Lucas regrets his word choices and feels bad about what he’s done. Talking Points: TRIGGER WARNING, Patriotic Casting, Arbitrary Naming, When The Aircraft Carrier Be Rocking, So Much Stock Footage, Hayden Makes You Believe, Questioning the Defense Budget, A Distasteful Depiction, Shilling the US Navy, Good Old Connie, he Green Screen Using Pullman Sparingly, A USA Network/SVU Tangent, The Captain’s Duties, Foreshadowing as Subtle As Pearl Harbor, Random Caricature Skills, Inappropriate Relationships, Sailors Gotta Eat, A Solid Heart-to-Heart, Pullman’s Sport Mode, The Theme Park Legends Tangent, The Ceremonial Pre-Terrorist Attack Talent Show, A Lack of Goofs, The New York Strong Monologue, Trashing the Connie, The Propaganda Money-shot, Reborn A Brat

    Episode 69: Divorce Him

    Hey, you! Quit all that monkeying around and listen to our newest episode! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Don’t expect too many amazing puns like that in this movie though. You see, The Jennie Project isn’t really about the kind of monkey-related hijinks you would expect from its premise. I know, it is very disappointing. I mean, there are plenty of messes made and silly situations our characters find themselves as a result of their animal companion. However, all of its other elements somehow manage to make all of them far less impactful than they should feel. So much so, that the movie kind of feels like it doesn’t even really exist. Not much else to say really, I’m afraid. Oh, there’s also some stuff about teaching an ape sign language? Honestly that part isn’t as important as interesting as it sounds, but I feel like it is worth a mention. Luke has a pronunciation problem and makes very specific references. Emma flexes her Law & Order knowledge and makes bold claims. Talking Points: This Movie Does Not Really Exist, Mysterious Sciences, A Rough Understanding/Depiction of Africa, Monkey Business, Everybody Hates Hugo, Bypassing Customs, A Graphic DCOM Death, Intellectual Superiority, Chimps In Clothes, Monkey VO, A Disappointing Kitchen Trashing, The Missing Religious Element, The Most Depressing Lab Ever Seen, The Staples Tangent, Monkey Sports, The Dangers of Domestic Chimpanzees, The World’s Meanest Primatologist, THE FIGHT, Lea’s Spiritual Journey, The Dramatic Treehouse Monologue, Mr. Crap, The Great Letter Caper, The Great Downhill Debate, The Apemergency Room, A Literal Scopes Monkey Trial, The Judge Who Allows Anything, Monkey Heist, Jennie Won’t Survive in the Wild

    Episode 68: No Fun, No Games, Only The Mall

    Oooh boy everyone, strap yourselves in for this month. Your intrepid hosts really didn’t know what they were getting themselves into by watching Bad Hair Day. It’s by no means terrible, but could possibly be the most mentally challenging film that we have yet to analyze. So much is going on that we have repeatedly summon our strength to continue, and we do it all for YOU. So the least you could do in return is join us as we go down the long and winding road this movie takes you on. Emma loves corndogs and needed a little help finishing the movie. Luke doesn’t want to play games and implodes his own brain.

    Episode 67: Dog Mischief

    A big woofy welcome to you all! I hope you all are ready for things to get a little hairy, as we dive into Life is Ruff. A movie all about…okay well honestly its somewhat deceiving to call it a movie. A story of a boy and his do….actually there is barely a story there at all if you think about it. Hm. Well I hope you can understand why we have a bit of a shorter episode on our hands folks, there really isn’t a lot going on to sink our teeth into. Honestly, we probably managed to spend more time thinking about this movie than anyone working on it did. Well other than the dog, he is clearly a master of his art. Emma notices only the least important details and gets her mind blown by dog puns. Luke cracks the whip and doesn’t notice the most important details. Talking Points: This Is Nothing, Thanks For Playing!, A Truly Massive Animal, An Existential Opening, The Dog Saves the Cat, Disney Channel’s Scandal, Babyface Musso, An Age Discrepancy Issue, Expecting the Impossible, The Confusingly Delusional Villains, The Skateboarding Sucks, The Asthma Situation, No One Making This Movie Knew About Dog Shows, The Insane Long Montages, A Dog Climbs Up a House, The Terrible Dubbed Lines, THE SOUNDTRACK (LISTEN TO THE END), How Did That Work?, Meatball Play, A Woman Who Reads Comics???, A Dog’s Trauma Flashback, Canine Red Carpet, Rondell Rules, Dog Show Speedrun, Dog Goons, The Tragic Asthma Backstory, Show Don’t Suggest, A Child Runs The Dog Shelter, The Unemotional Dog Breakup, A Mystery Solved In Transit, Emily’s Complete Character Turn, Who Setup That Fire???, A Skateboarding Exhibition/Dog Competition, Preston Tries to Commit a Murder, The Worst Prop Ever

    Episode 65: Missing Magic

    Aloha! Do you know what time it is? Island time! That’s right, this month, we’re heading to the beautiful shores of Hawaii to talk all about Rip Girls. A movie filled with surfing, self-discovery, and…real estate? Huh, that didn’t end up sounding as enticing as I thought. Plus, there really isn’t as much surfing as you’d think with that title. Although the title is really misleading actually. Also, they didn’t even shoot it in Hawaii, and the real estate plot makes no sense when applied to a thirteen-year-old. So, uh, yeah. I guess just be prepared for a lot of teenaged self-discovery! Woot-woot! Emma is here for Camilla Belle and gets some comeuppance. Luke just doesn’t get it and stands his ground about real estate.  Claire makes clear her DCOM devotion. Talking Points: Plot vs. Emotion, A Landowning Child, Surf Lingo, A JoBros Sidebar, Camera Concerns, Computer-Made Hawaii, Driving Trucks Through Conversation, We Would All Take the Money, A Reverse Tsunami, How to Be a Better Liar, Disney Channel Safety Regulations, A Distinct Lack of Rip Girls, Dry Dock!, An (Intentional?)

    Episode 64: A Competent Doof

    Wow, it’s been a minute huh? Don’t worry, no involuntary hiatuses caused by scheduling issues and technical problems can keep us down! Still, I don’t know how you all have managed to go so long without hearing from us. Your lives must have been so different…almost like you were living in another dimension??? Well have no fear! We’ve built just the thing to bring back to your original dimension (and also kind of back in time because this episode was recorded months ago but don’t worry about that), an episode all about Phineas and Ferb: Across the Second Dimension! Come along as we look at yet another DCOM based on a Disney Channel TV show, and look at how they just never really seem to be able to do these totally right. Lucas respects the craftmanship on display and loves all the callbacks. Emma tries to get her brother fired and can’t engage fully with animation. Talking Points: Meta Updates, Poor Titles, Perry Noises, Phineas and Ferb Drop Banger After Banger, A Deconstruction of Phineas and Ferb’s Humor, Candace Is The Best, The Exposition Lair, World’s Collide, The Mysterious Force, Phineas Has Nothing to Work With, Fedora Face Blindness, THE TRI-STATE AREA, Double Doof: Pros and Cons, Niche Georgia O’Keefe References, Resisting the Resistance, Disappointing Doppelgangers, A Platypus Rescue Mission, Commercial Breaks, Major Hologram, Dooooom, Weird It Happened Twice, Getting Lost Among All the Robots, Emotional Platypus Eye Contact, The Return of Love Händel, On Your Left, A Grown Man Fistfights A Child, Getting Locked Out of Your Evil Apartment, Crimes Against Humanity, The Maddening Mindwipe, Can This Be Done Correctly?, The One Thing We All Love: Slash from Guns N’ Roses

    Minisode: DCOMedy 2022 Update and Feed Test

    Hey everyone! I know things around here have been a little out of whack lately, so I wanted to try make sure everyone understood what was going on. Basically, due to scheduling, technical, and personal challenges, we haven't been able to stay on top of our podcasting duties. Luckily, those issues seem to be clearing up and we are looking forward to getting back on track. First things first, however, we need to make sure everything still works after kind of being broken for a while. So, take a listen to get the scoop, then head over to twitter.com/DCOMedypodcast and let me know you heard it. Then you can expect your regularly scheduled programming to resume soon. Sorry about all the delays, and we appreciate you all bearing with us!

    Hey there all you happy haunts, y’all ready to get spooky??? It’s Halloween time again, and you already know Disney Channel is all about celebrating it right. This month however, we are taking a look at one of their more underrated offerings as we join the ranks of The Scream Team (even if that’s not what they are called; don’t ask). So join us as we have a rather unique group of DCOMmentators, who are all ready to talk about these ghostly situations…and even experience one themselves! Lucas loses control very quickly and his humor gets puninentional. Dyllan cultivates his fanbase and makes some terrible jokes. Sophie figures out every miniscule lesson this movie seeks to impart.

    Episode 61: My Close Personal Friend Protozoa

    Wow. Five whole years of our nonsense, can you believe it? Honestly it’s been so long that if feels like even more. It kind of feels more like we’re in the future…again! That’s right, we are heading back to the far-off future of the 21st Century to catch up with our favorite space station superheroine Zenon in her very own Zequel. Come and celebrate with us as we work to focus on the good parts of movie that could use a lot more of them. Honestly, you guys are lucky we didn’t decide to just start watching another movie in the middle of this episode. Luckily, our one and only king Protozoa is here in full force to make us forget our troubles every single time he shows up on screen. Emma doesn’t understand orbit and falls down an accent hole. Lucas feels the zum in his heart and questions all of his sister’s references. Talking Points: Zenon Makes Everything Better, The Margie Problem, Power Rangers/Star Wars Plagiarism, All The Recastings, New Slang/New Fits, Goodbye Greg, More Like NO-rion, The Military Is Here Now, Captain Zeo-non, Make Pancaked Happen, Reused Sets, Montage Mistakes, Everyone Hates Zenon Now, DON’T ASK HOW; IT JUST DID, The Most Nonsensical Plan, Why Is Margie There???, All The CGI Is Bad, Thank God Judy Is Still Here, A Truly Insane Investigation, The Meta Narrative of The Zilogy, Everything Happens Via Zap-pad, The Jungle Slog, Protozoa Steals The Show, Button Mashing Saves The Day, Space Expert Surprises, The Stupidest Way to Blow This Plan, The Margie Redemption, The New Zealand Space Cops, The Juditive (The Fugitive But Starring Aunt Judy), The Aliens Are In Danger Now, The Zessiah, The ATV Flying V, Astrid Kar Is Important Now I Guess, All The Problems At Once, The Stepsister From Planet Weird and Zenon Crossover We’ve All Been Asking For, Put Protozoa Everywhere, The Wedding of the Century

    Minisode: The Fourth Annual DCOM Choice Awards (2021)

    Hmmm…do you feel that? It’s that weird vibe that’s been around for awhile. What could it be? Oh, of course. It must be award season once again! Which can only mean it’s time for the DCOM Choice Awards! A most incredible celebration, where we acknowledge everything the past year of DCOMs has had to offer. The truly thrilling highs…and the far more fun to talk about lows. So walk down the imaginary red carpet to be a part of a night sure to be full of happiness, disappointment, and definitely a whole lot of outrage from the voters because of how wrong we are about movies meant for children. Emma faces some tough choices. Lucas gets his motives called into question. Thank you so much to everyone who voted on twitter for the awards, and if you missed the polls be sure to follow us (@dcomedypodcast) so you can have your voice heard next year! Editor’s Note: Yes we goofed up and got our Queen Dorothea’s last name mixed up with her daughter’s first name. That one’s on us. However, none of you pointed it out when it was posted in the polls so who is really to blame here???

    Episode 60: The Wild World of 1980s California

    Sorry about the delay of game! Luckily, the DCOMedy Crew, along with new guest Spencer, are finally ready to take it to the hoop and talk about what might just be the greatest achievement in basketball cinema ever: Double Teamed. Join us as we journey to the strange and fantastical alternate reality of 1985 California, where rules don’t matter and girl’s basketball is the height of athletic entertainment. There we can all bear witness to the meteoric rise of two "identical" twins as they dominate the sport with their unique strategies and skills out on the court. Well okay, it’s mostly their height. Really it’s all about their height. Luke easily loses track of the twins and dives deep into a family’s secrets. Emma breaks out a killer impression and awakens her inner teenage girl. Spencer spills the secrets on being a twin. Talking Points: Making Two Distinct Adults Look Like Thirteen-Year-Old Twins, A Title Moratorium, The Basketballing Is Both Good and Bad, A DCOM Period Piece, Larry and Mary: Two Sides of the Same Coin, The Greatest Skill of All: Height, Shady College Man/Personification of Fate, Everything Is Different Now For Some Reason, Hollow Farewells, Look At Those Freaks!, Drama Club Cliches, The Subtle But Amazing Coach, QUEEN NICKY, No Time For More Takes, A Lack of Dribbling, The Enigma Of Galen, The Missing Burge, Nicky’s Tenacity, Twin Telepathy, The Most Important Scrimmage In The World, Confidential Arts and Crafts, School District Negotiations, Infected Wounds, A Clunky But Compelling Family Argument, All The Neighbors Hate These Girls, Yachts And Fever Dreams, The Stupidest Loss, Ball Is Life, The Villain Redemption We Deserved, Chekov’s H, The Intense Other Basketball Coach, Money Shots And A Hot Hand, The Most Brutal Injury, The Perfect Counter-Strategy, The Longest Seven Seconds In Basketball

    Episode 59: The Off-limits Barn

    Happy Halloween Everybody!! Are you ready to get spook….wait, what? It’s not Halloween? Oh good. I knew we had to take a little break from our podcast duties which pushed this episode back, but it didn’t feel like it had been that long. Well it’s not a big deal anyway. While Invisible Sister has many of the trappings of a good ole’ Halloween DCOM, it’s not really that big a part of it. It’s more about two sisters learning more about one another through costumes, lacrosse, and (most importantly) science! Emma shames her brother’s knowledge base and can’t get a name right. Lucas lets guests into his mind palace and does a lot of white-knighting. Talking Points: Science In Halloween’s Clothing, Ace-liens, Excessive Platitudes, Why CGI?, Genius/Goth, Correctly Aged Cast, The Problems With Perkins, FRO-YO, The Big Easy, Why Is George Here?, Meatballs???, Ingesting Insects for Invisibility (Brought to You By Ginger Fizz), Inconsistent Invisibility, The Fool-Proof Disguise, Spirit Circle, Boy’s Bathrooms, Lacrosse Time, Full-On Cheating, Time For a Ticking Clock, High School Labs: The Most High-tech Environment Possible, The Moth Catching Side-quest, A More Complex and Emotional Conflict, Halloween Rears Its Head, Let’s Romp the Swamp, Apologies to Nawlins, The Honeypot, Molly Makes a Weird Call, Perkins’ Finger Guns, Slow-mo Fro-yo, and Slam Narration

    Episode 58: It’s Quints.

    Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello! In many ways, this episode is quite different from what I’m sure anyone could have expected. Not only is it not about the movie we originally announced for this month, but we found ourselves doing a far more in-depth analysis of a movie’s emotion and themes than we usually do for a DCOM. To our credit, however, this is seemingly simple story about a bunch of babies changing peoples lives has more to it than you would think. It’s about things like art, family, and passion…but definitely still has plenty of jokes about babies pooping and peeing a lot so don’t worry yourself. Lucas doesn’t understand babies and gets possessed. Emma changes her mind about meatloaf and hates unreliable narration. Austin dives deep into the each layer the film hides. Talking Points: KJB Kills It Every Time, A Litany of Weird Bits, The Time of Octomom, Don Knotts in the Mix, The Dark Realities of These Parents, The World According to Jamie, Big Meme Energy, What’s Going On With Brad?, Lying For No Reason, MR.

    Episode 57: Off The Same Page

    Hey there bubbly boys, gaseous girls, and those intergalactic inbetweeners; are you ready to get weird??? Not in like a super fun way or anything, sorry if that was misleading. I just meant that we are watching Stepsister From Planet Weird this month and you need to be prepared. Not for anything to do with the aliens though, honestly that’s kind of not a big deal here. Really you just need to be ready for this film’s wild cultural references and strange sense of humor, coupled with the kind of whiplash only a DCOM can provide as it wildly flips from one tone to another. Emma gets way too deep and can’t stop laughing. Luke bungles the intro and says no to the dress. Talking Points: The End of the Zombies Saga, Dessert DCOMs?, A Strong Wind Surfing Component, The Crimes of Cosmo Cola, The Enigma of Cutter, A Surprisingly Deep Character Arc, The Last Gasp of the 1990s, Insane Architecture, Megan: The Only Sensible Person on Earth, Kathy Is Not Okay, What’s With the Potato Chips, Hats on Hats on Hats, Cutaway Gags, Cosmo Goes Too Hard, Bad at Being Human, Full CGI Nightmares, OUR QUEEN SERENA SOO, Speed of Light Engagement, The Immense (If Uninteresting) Power of Being Hot, We Needed More Mikey, A Major Cosmetics Representative?, The Most Convoluted Plan, Disney Channel Deep Cut, It Feels Like There Are Missing Scenes, Real World Parallels, Better Call Fred, The Realities of Zircalon Relations, Random Seltzer, Every Child Loves Sanford and Son, Hitting the Gaslight Pedal, This Is The World Megan Lives In, Intergalactic Accents, Monster Moments, Brought to You By Altoids, A Planet-saving Speech About Potato Chips, Reception Romance, The Lying Will Continue
