Explicit content warning

03/22/22 • 88 min

Welcome to Screen Tea Podcast! This week, Lisha and Jules do what all y'all have been doing: they talk about Bruno ♥ Prepare to either continue listening to the soundtrack on repeat or start listening to the soundtrack on repeat after your hosts cover Disney's 2021 mega-hit, Encanto! To nobody's shock, this episode is chock-full of Lisha hopped up on caffeine, psychoanalyzing all of the Madrigals and heart-eyeing over Lin-Manuel Miranda, while Jules hates on slow songs, examines diversity and manages to include a mini review of The Adam Project? Somehow? Oh, and both of your hosts REALLY HATE ON ABUELA, butcher the Spanish language (we really suck and we're really sorry), and discuss who has the best/worst powers in the Madrigal casita! This was a really fun one and a really great movie folks, so we hope you come sing along with us this week ♫♪♫

Episode 64: Needle in a Timestack

Welcome to Screen Tea Podcast! This week, Lisha and Jules have a treat for you, in the form of the best-titled film in film history: John Ridley's 2021 romance/sci-fi/fantasy Needle in a Timestack! Yep. Needle. In a Timestack. Don't be too quick to judge; as much crap as your hosts give the title, they heap on the praise in equal measure. Listen up as Lisha dies on a few hills (and has an Orlando Bloom-related epiphany), Jules admires some stellar cinematography, and both of your hosts play spot-the-hidden-JJ Abrams (look, let's just say we found the needle, and it's a LENS FLARE). This one was a roller coaster; a star-studded, beautiful, hot mess of a roller coaster, so enjoy the ride!

Small Screen Tea: Stranger Things (Season 4)

Welcome BACK to Screen Tea Podcast! Surprise dudes, we're alive and kicking, and coming back at you from another realm (just kidding, we're in Delaware now!). We decided to jump back into things with a Small Screen Tea, so find yourself a nice body of saltwater and sink into the sounds of us geeking out over season four of the Duffer brothers' Stranger Things! Be prepared to do some eye-rolling as Lisha does what she does best, which is get loud and gay over (loud and gay) characters, while Jules goes hard on Russia and both of your hosts damn Mike Wheeler to an eternity of torture in the lowest depths of hell (okay...maybe that's just Lisha, while Jules sticks to making fun of Finn Wolfhard). Regardless, this one was a blast and we both really loved this season, so grab your headphones, send some love to Eddie Munson, and run up this hill with us, nerds ♫♫ Also, in the wise words of one King Steve Harrington...boobies ♥♥
*Forgive us forever for the background noise, we've learned our lesson and will never record at this table ever, ever again.
