The seams are starting to come apart this week, with the infamous creepy seance, a poisoning, threats of lighting a man’s crotch on fire, and so much more.You can find our contact info and all our other shows at: podcastica.com Show support and get ad-free episodes: patreon.com/jasoncabassi 

So much fun to go back take a good look at how this incredible series started given how everything has shaken out over the first season. We’re definitely seeing a lot of it in a new light.Since we got started late with Yellowjackets, we decided to go back and cover the first five episodes one-by-one. These are spoilery for season 1, so if you haven’t finished the season yet, you should definitely do that before listening. You can find our contact info and all our other shows at: podcastica.com Show support and get ad-free episodes: patreon.com/jasoncabassi Daphne’s Run for Your Lives podcast: runforyourlivespodcast.com 

Season one of our obsession ends, a whole lot happened, and we’ve got a lot to say about all of it. It’s a long podcast, but we promise it’s all meat. Hope you guys enjoyed our coverage. We had a blast doing it. We’ll probably go back and cover the first five episodes individually in more depth, so stay tuned for that, and I don’t see what could keep us from coming back for season two!

Surprise, we’re covering another series!A bunch of us got into this new Showtime show Yellowjackets, and even though it’s already halfway through it’s initial 10-episode season we liked it so much we decided to start podcasting about it.So what is Yellowjackets? It’s kind of a Lord of the Flies with teenaged girls, with a little bit of Lost and some Alive thrown in. Very dark. Mysterious. Engaging. Crazy. Well written. Great music. Quality cinematography. The Wikipedia summary says “In 1996, a team of New Jersey high school soccer players travels to Seattle for a national tournament. While flying over Canada, the plane crashes deep in the wilderness and the remaining team members are left to survive for 19 months. The series chronicles their descent into madness and cannibalism while also tracking their current lives in 2021.“I (Jason) highly recommend checking this show out if you haven’t already been watching. It actually has a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes right now.In this first episode of our coverage, join Wendy, Daphne, and newcomer Penny for a thorough recap of the first five episodes, and then we’ll start covering it weekly through the rest of the season, simultaneously with The Wheel of Time. It’ll be a rotating group of hosts, and I’m really into it so I’ll definitely be one of them! You can find our contact info and all our other shows at: podcastica.com Show support and get ad-free episodes: patreon.com/jasoncabassi Daphne’s Run for Your Lives podcast: runforyourlivespodcast.com

Surprise, we’re back! You might have seen there’s been a bunch of Yellowjackets casting news, Emmy news, and other news, and since we love this show so much, we were excited to have an excuse to put out another podcast ep :) We realize some of you may not want to know which characters have been cast, so we divided the news into non-spoilery and slightly spoilery segments.

We’ll be back in a few days or so with part 2. Buzz Buzz.

My god, here’s another 3 1/2 hours on the YJ season finale, and that’s thanks to you guys sending in such fantastic feedback. Seriously, thank you all so much for your insights, humor, theories, and perspectives this season. What a joy to have you as a part of this with us!

I also wanna sincerely thank everyone who wrote in to challenge my (Jason’s) perspective on Matt Saracusa. I’m sure for everyone who bothered to send something in, there were many others who thought similar and either kept it to themselves and maybe even unsubscribed. I very much appreciate you engaging with me on it.

I’ve been thinking about it a lot over the past couple weeks, and as the days passed and more emails and calls came in, it’s hit me more and more how women have had to deal with men who were disdainful, domineering, and emotionally manipulative, among other things. And I’ve been feeling worse and worse about being so dismissive of that, among all of you and my cohosts too. I’m sorry. I was so busy defending my arguments that I forgot to be a human being.

I asked myself how I got to a place where I was defending a guy like Matt, and I realized it’s because I had been feeling judgmental of the actions of many of the other characters in the show, and to still appreciate the show, I had to start taking those actions less seriously, and to think of it more as a black comedy. So then when Matt came along and did something that while I agree is immoral and objectionable, isn’t as bad as things other characters have done (which I still do believe - murder is worse, for example), then it was jarring to me when people did take his actions seriously. But I failed to fully honor that that’s because you’ve had first-hand experience with men like him.

Even in this podcast episode, which we recorded several days ago (Sat, June 3) I still hadn’t completely come to the place where I’m at right now, where I just want to express that I think it’s totally fucked that you’ve had to deal with guys like this. I’m really sorry I wasn’t more attuned to that in these podcasts. I’ll try to do better.

PS We do talk about Matt Saracusa more in this episode, because we wanted to include all the feedback that had been sent in up to the time when we recorded. We’re also aware a lot of you are probably sick of hearing about, it, so we put it all together towards the end, and you can skip if you want. It’s at around the 2:31:00 mark (depending on how many ads were placed in the episode).

Here’s a little pinkified palate cleanser for y’all - it’s Kara, Penny, and Jason talking Barbie! If you haven’t tuned in to the cultural phenom that is the new Barbie movie yet, it was directed and co-written by Greta Gerwig, who usually does smart, character-focused indie movies like Lady Bird and Frances Ha, and we thought she was such an inspired choice for this surprisingly complex, layered, funny, incredibly beautiful, thought-provoking movie. This podcast is full of spoilers, so if you’re at all interested, we recommend you bust out your pinkest duds and go check out the movie first, and then come back and listen.

Be sure to check out Kara’s other podcast, Perfectly Marvelous, which is about to start coverage of Only Murders in the Building. You can find them anywhere you get podcasts, and their Facebook group is at https://www.facebook.com/perfectlymarvelouspodcast?mibextid=LQQJ4d

Daphne and Penny welcome Jenny and Lucy to discuss the 1993 movie, “Alive,” starring Ethan Hawk, Josh Hamilto and Vincent Spano and based on the true story of the 1972 Andes plane crash and unbelievable survival and rescue. Join this quartet to talk about survival in the real world, how it compares to what we’ve seen so far on Yellowjackets and what we can take away from the film.

Trailer for the upcoming “The Society of Snow” film based on the same story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxLQjkpS99Y

Hey Yellowjacketeers, here’s a little holiday surprise for you. Join Daphne, Jason, Jenny, and quizmaster Penny for some YJ trivia. We’re pretty rusty so let’s see if you guys can get more questions right than we did….

Note/correction: We looked it up, and it turns out that the teddy bear in one of the Yellowjacket’s bedrooms just kind of looks like Laura Lee’s bear, Leonard. But Leonard’s other eye is missing, and his nose is quite askew.

Hey everyone, we missed the podcast and decided to come back and check out one of the inspirations for Yellowjackets, namely William Golding award-winning 1954 novel Lord of the Flies, about a group of young boys stranded on an island and the tension between civility and savagery that ensues.

Wendy and Jason are thrilled to be joined by Wendy’s daughter Kasi for this ep. Kasi is a middle school teacher and knows this text well.
