This week, in what might be the funniest episode yet, Molly and Emese are joined by co-stars Amy Schumer and Brianne Howey. They get candid about motherhood, career evolution, and their new film, Kinda Pregnant —which unexpectedly led to Amy’s latest health discovery. Amy opens up about how public criticism led her to uncover her Cushing syndrome diagnosis, what it’s like to navigate comedy and Hollywood as a mom, and the importance of sharing birth stories without shame. Brianne shares how becoming a mother has shifted her perspective on work, how Ginny & Georgia ’s Georgia Miller compares to real-life parenting, and the power of female friendships in the industry. We also go behind the scenes of their new Netflix film, Kinda Pregnant —how Molly first got the script, why Amy and Brianne were drawn to the project, and what it means for women today. Plus, they reflect on their early career struggles, the moment they knew they “made it,” and how motherhood has reshaped their ambitions. From career highs to personal challenges, this episode is raw, funny, and packed with insights.

They’re subversive and they’re kooky, whimsical, sweet and spooky…The Addams Family! snap, snap

On today’s Deep Thoughts, Emily overthinks The Addams Family–specifically the 1990s era films starring Raul Julia and Anjelica Huston as Gomez and Morticia. The sisters examine how The Addams Family uses horror tropes and subversions to humorous effect and to shine a light on the truly horrific aspects of mainstream culture. Both films pass the Bechdel test with flying colors, and Morticia and Wednesday provide well-rendered characters that are a delight to watch. But the films do give with one hand (Morticia is a strong woman with agency) while taking away with another (she’s characterized as a good mother first and foremost). Join us as we talk about the most open and accepting family in pop culture.

Deep Thoughts About Dead Again 54:36

منذ 5 أيام54:36

54:36

Send us a text It's the karmic credit plan: buy now, pay forever. Tracie shares her deep thoughts about the 1991 Kenneth Branagh film Dead Again on this week’s episode. Branagh brought intelligence, style, and some pretension to this noir homage that tells the tragic love story of Roman and Margaret Strauss–who have apparently been reincarnated as Mike Church and the amnesiac Jane Doe he calls Grace. While the movie hits all the right mystery beats while you’re watching, Branagh’s story insists on false binaries that do the audience’s thinking for them. And despite being the romantic lead, the character of Mike makes it entirely clear why so many women would choose the bear. Put away the scissors and put on your headphones, because this is for you… This episode was edited by Resonate Recordings.

Deep Thoughts about Chasing Amy 1:16:32

Send us a text Your mother’s a tracer! Emily was very confused by the 1997 film Chasing Amy when she was an undiagnosed neurodivergent 18-year-old–in part because she was (and still is) crap at reading subtext and in part because the film accidentally illuminates the reality of bi-erasure. This week, Emily tells Tracie about what this well-meaning film about a cis-het white man learning to let go of his insecurities gets right about LGBTQ representation, what it gets wrong, and how it reinforces the division of emotional labor in textual and metatextual ways. The sisters also talk about the documentary Chasing Chasing Amy by Sav Rodgers that really helps contextualize the good and bad of this film and the era in which it was made. Finally, both Guy girls agree that Ben Affleck’s Holden really is mid. If you’ve ever wondered what a Nubian is, throw on your earbuds and take a listen.

Deep Thoughts about Big 1:07:52

1:07:52

Send us a text Okay…but I get to be on top! Tracie loved revisiting the 1988 Penny Marshall-helmed film Big this week. Tom Hanks’ performance of a 12-year-old boy wearing a grown man’s body is laugh-out-loud funny, and the film asks some profoundly important questions about how grownups can hold onto their childlike joy and wonder. But the love story between Hanks’ Josh Baskin and Elizabeth Perkins’ Susan–an actual adult woman–never sat well with either Guy girl. The sisters discuss how this film would not work if it were gender-swapped, why it seems to reinforce the idea that women should mother their romantic partners, and their theory that the sexual and romantic component of the story was potentially from studio meddling. No need to ask Zoltar for a wish–just plug in your headphones and take a listen.

Deep Thoughts about Groundhog Day 1:06:58

منذ 5 weeks1:06:58

1:06:58

Send us a text Watch out for that first step, it’s a doozy! This week, the 1993 film Groundhog Day is the vehicle for Emily to talk about the three most taboo subjects: religion, politics, and money. Not only is Bill Murray’s Phil Connors a favorite of scholars and commentators who talk about religion and film, he also has some interesting lessons to teach us about working for political change against huge obstacles. (Also, Emily’s a money nerd, and the truth is everything can be about money–especially when you’ve written a mini-viral article for Fast Company about it.) The Guy sisters hypothesize that part of what makes the movie successful and noteworthy to multiple religious faith traditions is the way in which the filmmakers took their craft seriously (though not themselves), from the precision of filming all of the repeat moments on the same day to the elegance of Phil’s Groundhog-Day-acquired artistic skills being music and ice sculpting: creative pursuits whose products are inherently ephemeral. Deep Thoughts is great for the car, but don’t drive angry!

Deep Thoughts about Mr. Mom 1:15:35

منذ 6 weeks1:15:35

1:15:35

Send us a text The next thing you know, you're strung out on bedspreads. One of the rare childhood films that the Guy Girls remember watching with both their mom and their dad, the 1983 John Hughes film Mr. Mom was in some ways an incredible progressive look at gendered work. There were only 6 (as in, one less than seven) self-reported stay-at-home dads in the U.S. in 1983, so Michael Keaton’s Jack Butler journey from incompetent, unemployed, and resentful primary parent to master homemaker and better dad truly was revolutionary. But as Tracie points out this week, the movie still carries outdated assumptions about the cost of being a woman in public (sexual harassment that is never punished), the inherent rivalries between women (because they always be fighting over a man), and the invisibility of women’s labor (unless and until a man has to do it). Curl up with your woobie and take a listen!

Deep Thoughts about Alien 1:04:38

Send us a text I admire its purity. A survivor…unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality. After many references in previous episodes, on this week’s show, the Guy Girls finally tackle the iconic 1979 film Alien . Ridley Scott’s masterpiece gave Tracie and Emily a role model in Ripley, played by Sigourney Weaver to be smart, tough, vulnerable, and right . While many commentators have explored the ways this film works as an allegory for rape and loss of bodily autonomy, Emily’s analysis takes it a little deeper, comparing the words and actions of the villainous science officer Ash to the modern anti-abortion movement. Both focus on protecting potential life–while treating the very real humans who will be harmed as entirely expendable. Throw on your headphones, save the cat, and take a listen… CW: Discussions of rape, forced birth, and loss of bodily autonomy Mentioned in this episode https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0473709/trivia/?ref_=tt_dyk_trv https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vantage_Point_(film)#:~:text=In%20the%20original%20script%2C%20Rex,the%20film%20a%20strong%20female .

1:08:23

Send us a text We’re reasonable Guy(girl)s, but we’ve just experienced some very unreasonable things! The 1986 film Big Trouble In Little China elicits some deep thoughts from Tracie in this week’s episode. The interwebs ask whether BTILC is woke or problematic, and we suggest the answer is ‘yes.' While the campy depictions of Chinese and Chinese-American culture are over-the-top and dripping with stereotypes, they do not make their subject the butt of the joke, and in fact seem to be winking at the audience. At the same time, Jack Burton (Kurt Russel) thinks he’s the hero, but he is very much Wang Chi’s (Dennis Dun) sidekick. In fact, Jack is so ineffective as a hero he spends most of the key fight scene unconscious and instead of a romantic and passionate kiss, he receives a face-wipe after defeating the big bad. It’s a delightful subversion of the heroic, manly white hero we’ve been conditioned to expect. This is gonna take crackerjack timing, don’t wait to press play!

Deep Thoughts About When Harry Met Sally 1:09:11

Send us a text “I’ll have what she’s having.” On this week’s episode of Deep Thoughts, the Guy sisters revisit the iconic 1989 rom/com When Harry Met Sally . Even though Meg Ryan’s Sally Albright offers a badass portrayal of a happy spinster who makes no apologies for wanting what she wants, a young Emily instead internalized the idea that being “high maintenance” was a sin. Though the story does offer some important pushback against the confidently wrong pronouncements made by Billy Crystal’s Harry Burns, Crystal’s performance is so funny and charming that it’s very easy to overlook his misogyny. On the bright side, Sally provides an excellent demonstration of just how easy it is to fake an orgasm.

Send us a text Light the lamp, not the rat! Just in time for Christmas, the Guy Girls welcome Emily’s dear friend Erika Plank Hagan to the show to discuss The Muppet Christmas Carol . There’s a reason this musical (and surprisingly faithful) adaptation of the Dickens morality tale is so beloved: not only does Michael Caine act his face off with his Muppet co-stars, but the framing of Gonzo playing Charles Dickens allowed Brian Henson to go all-in on the frightening aspects of the story without losing the littlest viewers. Erika shares how this film is often included in Episcopal sermons (Dickens was a Church of England guy), how the Disney executive’s decision to remove a song in the middle of the film is a storytelling travesty, and why bringing a raw turkey to someone’s house on Christmas day is just plain rude. Whether you’re here for the story or for the food, throw on your earbuds and take a listen!

Deep Thoughts About The Toy 1:01:52

1:01:52

Send us a text That's U.S., not you ass! The Guy girls remember the 1982 Richard Pryor film The Toy with a great deal of fondness, in part because it was on heavy rotation in the Guy household through their childhood. But a film about a billionaire’s young son “purchasing” a black man to be his toy for the week has some pretty chilling implications that the movie itself doesn’t do enough to acknowledge. In this week’s episode, Tracie shares how rewatching this movie in 2024 is both better and worse than she expected. It’s better because Richard Pryor is a delightful and talented center for the movie. And it’s worse because the film lets the villainous U.S. Bates, played by Jackie Gleason, get away with truly reprehensible behavior without real consequence and gives him a happy ending that he doesn’t earn. While the film is an indictment of capitalism, it also reinforces the idea that being nice to oppressors is how to secure human rights. Take a listen–just beware the piranhas!

Deep Thoughts about The Goonies 1:12:23

منذ 12 weeks1:12:23

1:12:23

Send us a text The Goonies never say die! One of the most quintessential Gen X films, The Goonies , makes for some significant mind furniture: good, bad, and kid-shaped. Richard Donner’s beloved 1985 film gave Gen X kids on-screen peers who talked like we did. They cursed and talked over one another and were cruel and sweet and they went on fabulous adventures. It also gave us unhealthy fatphobia, contradictory messages about greed, and a legendary pirate named after a penis. A lot about this film will garner cringes from contemporary viewers, but Emily notes that under the dated humor, fatphobia, sexism, racial stereotypes, and just plain silliness, there is a sweetness and hear that continues to shine through, especially in the person of Sloth and his relationship with Chunk and the other Goonies, his chosen family.

Deep Thoughts about Office Space TEASER 15:29

منذ 13 weeks15:29

15:29

Send us a text It’s not that I’m lazy. I just don’t care. In this special, patron-exclusive bonus episode, Tracie brings her deep thoughts about Mike Judge’s 1999 film, Office Space . There’s a reason this film about bullshit work has remained so beloved for a quarter century. Judge accurately reflects–and lampoons–a lot about what it feels like to work to live. There’s also quite a bit about 1990s culture that this film reflects without lampooning it at all, including casual sexism, casual racism, and, once Tracie and Emily recognized Milton as neurodivergent, casual ableism. Still, with a great soundtrack and that iconic and satisfying destruction-of-the-copy-machine scene, Office Space remains deeply entertaining–if we can hold it as documenting 90s culture, rather than a sort of role model. Hello Listener, what's happening? Ummm, I'm gonna need you to go ahead and come in to Patreon . So, if you could just do that, that would be great, mmmk...

1:04:47

Send us a text Those aren’t two pillows… Just in time for Thanksgiving, Emily finally watches one of the most beloved buddy comedies of the 1980s: Planes, Trains & Automobiles this week. After intentionally skipping this film when it was first released (because it appeared to feature gross-out and cringe humor), Emily is surprised and delighted to find the John Candy and Steve Martin comedy offers a nuanced look at how to see past our class-based differences. While John Hughes’ script provides a lot of the movie’s warm heart, it’s Candy’s performance that makes this film more than just a series of silly hijinks. Candy brings an impressive level of emotion and pathos to his larger-than-life character of Del Griffith. And though the film trades in some period typical fatphobia as part of its visual storytelling, viewers are ultimately given a clear sense of Del’s dignity and grief along with the belly laughs. It’s two days to Thanksgiving, making it the perfect time to throw your headphones and listen–even if your flight gets rerouted to Wichita!

Deep Thoughts about Airplane! 1:11:22

Send us a text We picked the wrong week to give up horse tranquilizers… The Guy Girls have fond memories of the 1980 comedy Airplane! –specifically, they remember their dad helplessly snort-laughing at this three-gags-a-minute parody of 1970s-era disaster films. The movie still delivers solid belly laughs, but not everything is as funny four decades later. Tracie examines how jokes about pedophilia, misogyny, racism, and homophobia in the movie punch down instead of skewering the powerful and absurd, and the sisters lament the fact that the Zucker brothers (and Jim Abrahams) question everything–except the idea that a woman is a prize. But credit where credit is due–Tracie is able to make Emily lose it with laughter just by describing some of the movie’s funniest moments. Surely you’re going to listen to this episode. I am going to listen–and don’t call me Shirley.

Send us a text You know what the difference is between you and me? I make podcasting look gooooood. This week, Emily dives into the remarkably subversive 1997 film Men in Black . Despite looking like nothing more than an entertaining summer blockbuster that merged sci-fi and comedy, MiB actually asks the audience to rethink what they know about immigration, xenophobia, race, policing, government, and even the buddy-cop genre. Tracie and Emily truly enjoy revisiting this old favorite that seems especially prescient in the current political climate.
