Episode 54: Easter Parade

Easter_Parade_poster.jpg

Put on your Easter bonnet, with all the fills upon it, Katie and Wesleigh are talking Easter Parade! In honor of the holiday weekend we watch the 1948 musical featuring Fred Astaire and Judy Garland. In this episode we talk friend zones, symbolic Easter pastries, Katie does at least 5 accents, Wesleigh might be a vampire (!?) and we have a very visceral reaction to THAT KISS.

In this episode Katie describes some ideal artwork she’d like to commission, we discuss the British royals, and Wesleigh gushes over how cute Jack Black is in this role.

Prepare for your heart to grow three sizes today: We're kicking off a month of holiday episodes with the classic TV special How the Grinch Stole Christmas! This is Katie's pick for the season and backs up her unpopular opinion of disliking Christmas songs and decorations. In this episode we also cover Christmas Shoes, our favorite Dr. Seuss books, and the terrible holiday play Wesleigh wrote in high school for her youth group.
