Is it just us, or is *everyone* talking about Heated Rivalry?! Well, hopefully it's not just us, because on this week's duo ep of the Legendary Ladies Podcast, Kat and Amy return to discuss the entire season of the hit HBO show. They chat about how the pacing of the show created a world where fans got just what they wanted, without there ever being a point of "too much of a good thing", how the characters evolved of the season, and what predictions they have for season two. They also discuss how uh, well, just like a lot of fans who had never really been a fan of the sport, they might like hockey now...

It's the episode you've been waiting for! The Legendary Ladies finally get a chance to sit down and talk about Wicked: For Good. Amy, Kat, and Morgan (who were simply agog and obsessed with Wicked Part I) have plenty to discuss, including the most important point - did Part II hold up? The hosts chat about whether or not the general public vs. theater fans could approach the movie differently, as an "Act II" rather than simply another movie. They also talk about the lack of a "viral" factor - how come, a month after Part I, the Loathing choreography was still making the rounds around the internet, but 3 weeks after Part II, the world seems to all but moved on from Wicked. Finally, the hosts give their honest opinions about the film, the performances, and the phenomenon in general.

Attend mind towards glorious task - and listen to the new episode of The Legendary Ladies Podcats, where Kat and Amy dive into the new Spartacus series: Spartacus: House of Ashur. The hosts approach the review of episode 1 from different perspectives - Kat as entirely new viewer, and Amy as a long-time fan, allowing the Ladies to discuss whether the new series is inherently accessible for a new audience, and if it is, does it capture a first time watcher effectively. Amy and Kat also chat about the challenges facing the new series, share thoughts about the [current] lack of Roman elite, and debate whether Ashur was the right character to resurrect from the grave.

At the internet's behest, Kat and Amy sat down to watch the first episode of "Heated Rivalry", the queer sports series that is taking HBO Max by storm. The Legendary Ladies step into the show blind, with only a marginal idea of what they were getting into - and they were absolutely thrilled. The hosts chat about how the series feels like a genuine translation of a book to screen, the tasteful artistry of the sexual depictions, and discuss the queer aspects of the show that can invite audiences of all types to consume the series.

It's time for Amy's spooky season pick - and we don't really mind that it is halfway through November. As anyone who listens to the podcast (or knows Amy at all) could guess, she was so excited to watch Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein; it is not, however, Kat's cup of tea (again, as you all should know). But that doesn't really matter, because as it turns out, Amy can talk about the film for literally 45 minutes almost entirely on her own. It's a fascinating look into the brain of two storytellers, one who loves gothic horror, and the other who may not love, but deeply respects it. Explore the anagories, deep dive into the nuance of Intention, and join the hosts as they explore the film that Guillermo Del Toro has been waiting to make since his childhood.

Join The Legendary Ladies (sans Morgan) for a quick pilot-pod of The Diplomat, starring Kerri Russel and Rufus Sewell. A show that Amy has watched all three seasons of, she wasn't quite sure that Kat would be interested. Tune in, and find out if Kat is intrigued enough to keep watching, whether or not the hosts think Gen Z will be interested in political dramas, and why Amy may just go back and watch the West Wing....again.

Al this and more on this week's pilot pod! Next week? FRANKENSTEIN.
