Episode 136: A Dog for Christmas

 

For our last Christmas episode (and last for 2021) we have possibly the most misleading movie in existence. How much dog content should be in a movie titled A Dog For Christmas? A lot more than this one has! And even looking beyond the lack of dog, is there anything redeemable about the movie that claims to be a low budget version of Christmas Vacation? (Spoilers: NO)

But don't worry, we fill your doggo needs with talk of Izzy, Gideon and Jazz. Plus we've got some very exciting doggo spots.

Happy Holidays!

Episode 134: Gremlins

 

Happy Holidays! Em and Anna from the Shelf Aware podcast are back for their annual Christmas movie. While this one, the 1984 classic, Gremlins, pushes the boundaries of a dog in a movie, it doesn't stop the ladies finding distractions with other topics. Anna has to know about the age of the main character and why he has teenage friends. Em gets stuck on what exactly this movie is trying to say. While Kate just want to talk about best boy Barney.

Episode 133: A Dog's Journey

 

Em from the Shelf Aware podcast is back to discuss the 2019 hot mess A Dog's Journey. Was the wait worth it? We discuss what works and what doesn't. And Em has a lot of opinions about the differences between the movie and the book. But hey, at least the dogs are cute.

Episode 131: Lady and the Tramp 2

 


Julianna from the Puffcast is back to talk about a movie that featured a fair bit in her childhood. Lady and The Tramp 2 was a straight to VHS sequel that followed a predictable Disney trope. From forced heteronormative doggy romances (what?) to songs that just don't cut it, will there be anything redeemable about Scamp's Adventure?

Episode 122: Darling Companion (2012)

 


Kate and Stephanie are catching up all the dog talk! What have Jazz and Izzy been up to? Who experienced their first Husky scream and who has lost weight?

Plus we talk about the 2012 movie Darling Companion, a film that was believed to be about a dog, had a great cast and plot, but in the end, turned out far from expected. How did a movie with so much promise go so wrong?

Episode 112: Look Who's Talking Now

 


Anna and Em from the Shelf Aware podcast join the show again. This time together to talk the 1993 comedy Look Who's Talking Now! This is a movie set during Christmas, with talking dogs, but aimed at an adult audience. So what could possibly go wrong? A lot, actually!

From controversial co-stars to awkward doggy sperm sequences, this movie brings up a lot of questions, most of which have nothing to do with Christmas. But the most important question plaguing our minds... 90s John Travolta: Hot or not?

Episode 111: 12 Dogs of Christmas Great Puppy Rescue

 


Happy December! We have arrived at the very first of our Christmas movie episodes! This week, Stephanie returned to discuss some very good dogs in "12 Dogs of Christmas Great Puppy Rescue". A sequel that was good, but felt a little underwhelming.

With not as much doggy action as the first one, we tackle some other important questions we had about this movie set in the 1930s.

Episode 110: Legally Blonde 2


Grab your snaps cup! Vanessa from Not Another X-Files Podcast returns to the show to chat about Legally Blonde 2, a not so successful sequel to the smash hit comedy. But is this movie unfairly judged? We take a dive into Elle's world as she once again breaks down blonde stereotypes, this time while fighting for animal rights. Her best friend Bruiser takes a larger role this time round, including a controversial storyline that has us questioning is it somewhat funny or just plain offensive? And could it have been done better at all?

Plus! You'll hear an update on Venessa's goodest girl Yoshi. Is Santa Paws coming to visit her?

Episode 99: The Art of Racing in the Rain (movie)

 


Is it possible for a movie to be better than a book? We think theres a chance with this one. If you loved the book (and even if you didn’t), you’ll love the movie, and you’ll most likely cry your eyes out. The big question though, is did this one finally make Kate cry?

Episode 97: The Voices

 


What happens when Kate picks a movie that has a cat and a dog, but actually has a bit more gore than growls? Will Stephanie see the quirky side of “The Voices” or will she find getting through it a bit ruff?

Episode 95: Scooby-doo The Movie

 


We’re talking Scooby-doo The Movie, a modern-ish remake on a cartoon classic. The movie was a nostalgic favourite for Stephanie, but did it live up to her warm fuzzy feelings? And this is the first time ever watching for Kate, will she find it fab or a flop?
