MMB Movie Club 3 - Desert Hearts
Another week, another Adam's Paternity Leave release. This time we're got doing something a little different. As we told you last week, this is a Patricia Charbonneau podcast. This has never been released to the general public. It’s always been an episode that only our full-fledged Munchies on Patreon could listen to. This should give you an idea of what else we offer once a month...
Frequent SVU director Helen Shaver stars opposite Munchie Boys’ fave (and guest star in last week's episode that was dropped) Patricia Charbonneau in this gorgeous, groundbreaking Donna Dietch (who directed 3 SVUs herself) film from 1985, Desert Hearts. Come get cozy with us in the Divorce Capital of the World, Reno, Nevada, and lose yourself in this fantastic flick.
Episode 56: She Just Wanted to Get Sticky Fingered (S9E11 Streetwise)
Another week, another Adam's Paternity Leave release, this time we've got the one, the only Patricia Charbonneau, about whom this podcast is centrally concerned. As mentioned last week, this is content that's been behind the Patreon paywall for a while. Patreon payments are frozen for the time being. New Munchies can't join as paying members until that's unpaused, but you can join as a free member and at least be kept abreast of pod news...
When questions like “If I die, and there’s a hot tub, can I be made a saint?” get posed, you know things got weird. This installment in Munchstory has Adam and Josh covering “Streetwise” (S9E11) like a blanket on a mattress—or a society doucher, apparently. This episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit has it all. Mae Whitman going from glitz to gutter and back again. STUNTS! Adam Beach. A bum family complete with a pretty messianic cult leader dad who isn’t afraid to go big. True Munchies will enjoy the diversions through high society, defunct Swedish automotive companies, the conditions necessary for beatification and the Christianization of the Welsh, defunct NYC music institutions, the nature of paintball, and much, much more.
Episode 60: Spidey Sense, but for Sex Crimes (S21E13 Redemption in Her Corner)
For Father’s Day, the Randomizer decided to troll dads everywhere with a tale of woe and trauma that sure makes one father look AWFUL. We watched Redemption in Her Corner (S21E13). Don’t worry though because plenty of other people get some stink on them too because this is Law & Order: SVU, after all. As per usual, Adam and Josh go down innumerable rabbit holes—trying to figure out just what Liv’s birthday actually is, wondering what Barba was doing in Iowa investigating election fraud for primaries that don’t exist, the origins of the boxing for fitness craze, and the origins of Italian soups. Fathers everywhere should listen to remind them that there are a lot of bad dads out there, and they should work to make sure they’re not one of them.
