The Bro Code by Barney Stinson

Alexis and Suzy were fans of How I Met Your Mother when it aired from 2005-2014. Now that they are the same age as the characters, they thought "let's rewatch all 208 episodes." Was it a mistake? Every episode looks at 10 articles of the NYT best seller The Bro Code by Barney Stinson and evaluates how to be a bro in a post #metoo world. Future-Suzy provides the voice of Broses, after they trans-ed their gender shortly after the original recording of this show.

Stephenie Meyer Ruined My Life

Stephenie Meyer successfully inspired a Twilight Renaissance when she released of Life and Death (2015) for the ten year anniversary of Twilight (2005). Since then, a bunch of Twihards armed with the internet started psychoanalyzing her characters and critically obsessing over her books. A second wave of the Twilight Renaissance was born with the release of Midnight Sun (2020). That’s where I come in. Who is more dangerous in the Stephenie Meyer worldview: men or vampires? And how does Bella Swan survive someone who is both?

LIVE SWITCH: The Monkey (2025) and Last Breath (2025)

On a Tuesday night in March... Alexis and Suzy sneak around the movie theater to watch halves of movies they purchased tickets for... this movie-ruining experience is better known as The Ole Switcheroo!This week we went to the ole AMC, saw Nicole Kidman step in a puddle, and then watched two halves of brand new movies The Monkey and Last Breath. To keep things fair, we used the Pickerwheel to decide who would get the first and second half of each movie. We would love to see you over on the PATREON and here's the LinkTree for the whole tree of links.

EYES/EARS: Saw III (2006)

Alexis and Suzy are hitting you with another installment of the Saw franchise with Saw III (find the first two in the feed).

This week on our Patreon, you can hear an episode about our visit to Gobbler's Knob in Punxsutawney for Groundhog Day. Want more? We have other shows. Check 'em out: linktr.ee/nermernermer
