Welcome to Unabashedly Obsessed, a podcast about pop (and not-so-pop) culture. Join James and Erin each week as they discuss their current obsessions, ranging from new time-travel TV shows to Stephen King books (often involving time travel) to obscure 80's horror movies that inexplicably involve time travel. But please be aware: we are NOT a time-travel podcast.
Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 145: Nothing Gold Can Stay (Unabashedly Obsessed)
Hey, everyone! This is it. The last ride. The final countdown. The big sleep.

Unabashedly Obsessed Mini-Episode: An Announcement (An Announcement)

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 144: Don’t Go Down Stairs. (“Russian Doll”)
Hey, everyone! What if real life was a video game, where every time you died to respawned to your last save point? That’s exactly the surface premise of Netflix’s “Russian Doll”, which stars Natasha Lyonne as a woman who keeps dying and respawning to the same moment. It’s like “Groundhog Day”, but trippier.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 143: My Butt Hurts From Sitting For So Long (Podcasts, Volume 4)
Hey, everyone! It’s been a year since we talked about what podcasts we’re listening to. We’ve picked up, uhhhhh a LOT of new podcasts in that time. Strap in. (This isn’t even all of them. Some we didn’t even get to mention. Some we talked about but are saving those discussions to release in a later episode because we recorded for OVER TWO HOURS and decided not to make you, dear listener, sit there and listen to us yammer about podcasts for over two hours in one sitting.)
Bottom line, podcasts are good, especially indie podcasts, and you should definitely be listening to more of them.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 142: Kids Always Think Farts Are Funny (“Hearts in Atlantis”)
Hey, everyone! It’s Amity’s Patreon anniversary–you may recall that last year she selected “The Lost Room” for us to watch, and that one was an excellent recommendation, so we were pretty stoked to dive into this year’s rec, the movie version of Stephen King’s “Hearts in Atlantis”, starring Anthony Hopkins. We’ve established before that movies are a good adaptation form for King’s novellas, and this one is no exception–a movie was exactly the right length to allow for a faithful adaptation.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 141: What If Your Phone Ate You? (“Bandersnatch”)
Hey, everyone! It’s been a couple months since Black Mirror’s “Bandersnatch” was released on Netflix, and now that we’re out of Jannauary, we decided to dive in and see what it’s all about. (Spoiler: It’s not about your phone eating you.)

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 140: Elboned (Nobody Likes A Clown At Midnight: Livestream 12/21/18)
Hey, everyone! Remember back in December when we did a livestream? Did you miss that livestream? Well, you’re in luck, because here is the best hour of that very, very long experiment.

Episode 139: Mrs. Zombieson, You’re Trying to Seduce Me! (“Life After Beth”)
Hey, everyone! It’s the final week of Jannauary, and this movie is a weird one. A delightful one! But a weird one.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 138: Bleh, bleh! (Outtakes, Vol. 10)
Hey, everyone! James had a family emergency and was out of town on our normal recording night, so we couldn’t do a PodCon2 recap like we’d planned, but don’t worry, you still get to hear our lovely voices. Probably more of Erin’s voice than you’d want, as she has discovered that if she doesn’t have a script or a partner, she sounds like a robot. Or a smooth jazz/soft rock radio station DJ. Or a…vampire?
Final segment recorded at the LiveU Recording Studio at PodCon 2

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 137: So Much Cardio (“Pitch Perfect 3”)
Hey, everyone! It’s JAnnauary Week 3, and we’re talking about the sequel to the sequel to James’s favorite movie. It is a bit of a wild ride, and as always, Anna is a delight. But if that’s not enough, watch it for Fat Amy. And if that’s not enough, watch it for Elizabeth Banks. And if that’s not enough, watch it for the mulleted country boys covering Elle King’s “Exes and Ohs”, and Ruby Rose singing The Cranberries.
Also, watch it for all the murder.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 136: Sraey Evif Tsal Eht (“The Last Five Years”)
Hey, everyone! Sometimes a creator will decide to try something new, like starting at the end of a story and moving backward to the beginning. Sometimes they think, “Hmm, maybe that’s too unconventional, I should do it the normal way instead.” And sometimes they think, “Why not both?” And then cast Anna Kendrick in the movie.
