Cookies and Screams AKA The Empire Pilot
I'ma Need More Wine Podcast
06/08/22 • 235 min
5.0
Happy Wine Wednesday! As you'll hear in the intro, this week's episode is one that I've been wanting to do for a very long time. Special guest Candi returns this week to discuss the pilot episode of the messy, messy Fox drama/musical - Empire. We've got the main discussion about the pilot episode and a really fun spoiler segment in which we discuss the top 10 ridiculous Empire moments.
Empire is my current comfort show and having watched the entire series multiple times, unpacking this mess with Candi was like therapy. As for the pilot, we talk about the casting of Cookie and Lucious. Could you see Monique as Cookie or Wesley Snipes as Lucious? We also talk about our impressions of the newcomers to whom we were introduced, including Bryshere Gray, Trai Byers, and Jussie Smollett. If you're looking for commentary about Jussie outside of his role on Empire, you'll have to stick around for the spoiler segment.
You can't talk about Empire without touching on the show's amazing music, so we share our favorite songs from the pilot. We discuss our favorite characters from this introductory episode and share what we liked and what we didn't like overall. In our closing arguments, we share whether or not you should continue with Empire if you've only watched the pilot. And, as always, we get thirsty! Who is so hot you might do a 17-year bid in prison for them?
During the spoiler segment, we talk ridiculous moments, thoughts on the series finale, what Empire got right, and Empire's greatest crime against television writing. We get into the Jussie of it all and remind folks that he wasn't the only one with some off-screen messiness as the series wrapped. Say what you want about Empire, Lee Daniels leveraged his success to attract some serious heavy hitters to the series and we discuss which big name actor appearances we enjoyed. I also stand in my truth about my hatred of musicals, the very limited list of musicals that I actually enjoy, and Candi very kindly reminds me that Empire is in fact a musical show.
As always, we love you for listening. Find and follow Candi on Twitter here.

The Pilot Project - Minx
I'ma Need More Wine Podcast
05/25/22 • 229 min
5.0
Happy Wine Wednesday! I am delighted to have very special guest host Abbey White join me this week to discuss the pilot episode of Minx on Max.
We unpack the pilot, explore what this show set in the 1970s is saying to its audience in 2022, share our thoughts on the standout performances, and of course we get thirsty. No spoiler segment this week because I have not watched the entire first season, but as you'll hear in this week's discussion, I have every intention to continue watching. As always, I LOVE talking to Abbey and we had a fun, tipsy time that included me struggling through a very weird comparison of penises to clean eating.

Farewell to Pose
I'ma Need More Wine Podcast
06/16/21 • 176 min
5.0
Happy Wine Wednesday! Award winning journalist Abbey White is back this week to bid a fond farewell to the FX series Pose. We kick things off with our thoughts on the unexpected announcement that the series was coming to an end. We then share our overall impressions of the final season. We loved ALL things Elektra, but did not love some of the pacing issues created by the reduction of episodes.
Series co-creator Steven Canals said that in mapping the final season out, the writers looked back to the dreams of the main characters identified in season 1 and essentially set out to make those dreams come true in the final season. With that in mind, we walk through the final chapter in each character's arc and share our thoughts on where they ultimately landed.
Next, we discuss our favorite episodes and musical cues. We also share our MVPs of the series. No discussion of Pose would be complete without discussing our thoughts on Pose's chances for long overdue awards season recognition and why the few nominations the show gets seem to all go to Billy Porter.
The episode closes with our thoughts on Pose's legacy and the actors who made us thirsty.

Queer As Folk (2022) Pilot: Righteously Railed
I'ma Need More Wine Podcast

5.0
Happy Wine Wednesday! Stacey AKA Sticky Keys makes her triumphant return to the podcast this week to discuss the pilot episode of the Paramount reboot of Queer As Folk.
Content Warning: Mass Shooting; Gun Violence
After sharing our respective histories with the Queer As Folk franchise, Stacey and I discuss the writers' choice to pull from the Pulse nightclub tragedy for the series opening. Once we unpack our feelings about that, we then get into the rest of the pilot. We talk about the very bold opening scene and New Orleans as the location for series. We also discuss character introductions and play a game in which Stacey tells me if my character arc predictions are hot or cold. Following that, we get into standout performances, thirsty thoughts, and Stacey shares her thoughts on how this version of Queer As Folk stacks up against its predecessors.

Fire Island
I'ma Need More Wine Podcast
07/06/22 • 201 min
5.0
Happy Wine Wednesday! I'm back this week with Abbey and a very new special guest - Marcus - to discuss the delightful rom com, Fire Island.
Our conversation kicks off with our thoughts on one of the things the writers did really well - intimacy. We share our favorite romantically intimate scenes between Noah and Will, along with our favorite platonic intimate moment between Noah and Howie.
We discuss director Andrew Ahn's thoughts on the benefits of having an all queer cast when filming romantically intimate scenes like the beautifully shot rain scene. Next, we get into one of my favorite themes - chosen family. One of the delightful parts of Fire Island is its exploration of chosen family and intimate, but platonic bonds. Marcus and Abbey share their thoughts on how the writers explored variances in the gay experience on Fire Island — a place considered by some as a haven for the LGBTQ+ community — as well as the variances in the kinds of relationships gay people value.
Because Abbey has now joined me to discuss two properties known for featuring full frontal male nudity, I had to ask their thoughts on whether Fire Island could have benefitted from the same. We talk replay value of Fire Island and whether or not we would like a sequel to the film. As always, we close with our thirsty thoughts.
Thanks so much for listening!
Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, and we use adult language.

The Bob's Burgers Movie
I'ma Need More Wine Podcast
08/03/22 • 115 min
5.0
Happy Wine Wednesday! Candi returns this week to discuss The Bob's Burgers's Movie. Bob's Burgers is our favorite comfort show, so we were delighted when it was announced that the Belchers were coming to the big screen.
You know I love discussing which characters we relate to from a show and there was no way I would pass on an opportunity to discuss which Belchers we see in ourselves. We then touch on how the writers manage to acknowledge real life issues, such as the Belchers' financial struggles, while still creating a property that is both comforting and humorous. Next, we get into whether there were any noticeable differences between the Belchers on film versus television.
It wouldn't be Bob's Burgers if there were no musical numbers, so of course we share our favorite selections from the film. Following that, we share our thoughts on the various arcs for each Belcher family member. The secondary characters have become just as memorable as the Belchers, so we talk about which characters outside of the Belcher family we like most. It would be a little weird to share thirsty thoughts about animated characters, so this week's thirst segment has a little twist to it.
As always, we love you for listening. Find and follow Candi on Twitter here.

Pose Season 2 - Part One: Ricky Evangelista Wintour is America's Ass
I'ma Need More Wine Podcast
10/23/19 • 142 min
5.0
Our Pose discussion continues with Season 2 of the series. We had LOTS to say, so we are breaking out our thoughts on the season over two episodes. We open with a chat about helpful life hacks for preparing adult beverages. In our segment on stuff we like, we celebrate Kristine learning how to swim and ponder the consequences of characters on True Blood wearing denim with no underwear. As for the stuff we did not like, we chat about the things we do for cute hairstyles and Karamo Brown.
We continue our praise for the show while acknowledging some of the second season’s growing pains. We kick things off with a chat about some of the weaker aspects of the season and storylines we still don’t quite know how to feel about. We cover everything from the writers exercising creative license with historical events, justice for Candy Abundance Ferocity, and the Ricky/Pray Tell pairing. We question the use of Madonna’s Vogue as a focal point for the start of the season and try to figure out how our ballroom faves are funding their fierce styles. Where are the sewing machines?!
Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, and we use adult language.

In this episode, we discuss wines that will get you tipsy with just a few sips and discover very quickly that our wine tastes are aligned with our personal brands. We discuss the stuff we like, which includes heritage-inspired vacations and Normani. We vent about annoying, racist people on Twitter popping up in your social media mentions like the worst Kool-Aid man ever, which leads to a discussion of Twitter etiquette and geography. Fun fact - Africa is a continent!
After shooting the crap a bit, we get into the groundbreaking first season of FX’s Pose created by Steven Canals, Ryan Murphy, and Brad Falchuk. We take a deep dive into our initial impressions of the show when it was announced and then move on to our discussion of why the first season of Pose is amazing, must see television. We rave over what we like and also manage to work in a drag of Mario Lopez.
Friendly reminder, we drink, we know things, and we often use adult language in our discussions.
