This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast Zach and Sloane unwrap the 1996 romance/sports/comedy film Jerry Maguire. This movie took the world by storm in 1996.

In this episode you'll hear the duo explain the very specific nostalgic feeling the song Secret Garden by Bruce Springsteen gives them, you'll hear Zach and Sl...

Well everyone, we thought that our three year anniversary was a great time to revisit the sequel to The Mummy (1999), The Mummy Returns! We love you with all of our hearts and we hope you enjoy this episode where we unwrap part of a very special franchise to us. In this episode we hear from Sloane's son, Rex. The 7 year old film bro gives his opinions on the bad CGI and, in his opinion, lack of fighting. Zach and Sloane also delve back into what got them here in the first place; the in-your-f...

In this episode Sloane asks a gobsmacking amount of plot questions, we revisit the disaster of trying to podcast about the first movie, we both come to the conclusion that See You Again is a top tier ballad after hearing a beautiful story about Sloane's experience with the song, and Zach gets choked up discussing the final scene.

This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast Zach and Sloane are joined by writer Kirthana Ramisetti for an unwrapping of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind that turns into a discussion about Real Housewives, Vanderpump Rules, and Summer House. This is Zach's first time seeing this movie and there was definitely a sound reason he avoided it all these years. We all know how a manic pixie dream girl in a 2000's film freaks him out. Kirthana brings a refreshing and calming presence to the discussion...

This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast Zach and Sloane unwrap the 2007 action/thriller/Christian propaganda film, The Mist. In this episode Zach and Sloane discuss the pivotal roles they would play in an alien apocalypse survival situation using Taki's and Snapchat filters, the matching grease burns both of their moms got on major religious holidays, and their appreciation for Thomas Jane's bristly chest while discussing whether he actually is Hung (HBO, 2009) or not.

This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast, Zach and Sloane are joined by the leader of the hot girl army: fan favorite Hannah Brown! The trio discuss 1991's horny big tit chicken classic: "Rock-a-Doodle"! Sloane had never laid eyes on this film and she was pretty disturbed by what she bore witness to. Zach and Hannah were both adamant that it's a solid film and deserves a place in the kid movie hall of fame. Hannah even admits this is the third podcast she's been on where she's discussed her love of...

This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast, Zach and Sloane unwrap the 2005 sci-fi / military propaganda film: War of the Worlds. Before they get into the European terrorism of it all Sloane shares an equally disturbing anecdote from Zach's most hated location on earth: Sloane's child's elementary school.

This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast  we're unwrapping the romantic comedy / single white female thriller: Obsessed! This movie is a nostalgic ride from start to finish. Queen Beyoncé quite literally wipes the floor (and coffee table) with Ali Larter,  but who can blame Ali? Idris Elba plays Ali's boss and you, too, would be throwing yourself at that man left, right and center. Zach and Sloane stay on-topic for the majority of this film because there was so much to discuss: villainous gay...

This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast, Zach and Sloane unwrap 1998's romantic mystical fantasy film: City of Angels. This movie has it all: Nicolas Cage as an angel named Seth, Dennis Franz body surfing nude, dumpster babies, and a young Nick Offerman. It's a film that could not and would not be made in 2024. It's too wacky, too silly, and too heartfelt. Grab a pear, say a prayer and tune in to this week's episode of Mummy Dearest Podcast!  Support the showVisit MummyDearestPodcast.com for merch...

Luke works directly with Julian Fellowes, writer and creator of The Gilded Age and Downton Abbey, to ensure that not only our historical accuracy needs are met but also our horny ones. Luke delivers a most magical and heart warming interview where he tells tales of on-set hijinks, a personal story that will knock your socks off, and his hopes and dreams (that he's legally allowed to tell us) for...

We're baaaaaack! And we're here with 2004's action/horror/rom-com(?): "Van Helsing". There is much to unpack this week. Namely Hugh Jackman's wardrobe in this film. At one point we counted over 14 buckles on his top half alone! That's a serious commitment to being buckled. We also touch on topics like: post partum depression, accidentally microwaving a child, exploding vampiric children, hookah lounges, hair accessories and Josie Maran! All that and SO much more on this week's episode of...

This week on Mummy Dearest , we unwrap the season 2 finale of the greatest show of all time: The Gilded Age. The finale was a perfect bow on top of a beautiful gift of a season. It had everything we've come to love and expect from The Gilded Age: Duke drama, fake friendships, Nathan Lane's southern accent, crossing the street, and Agnes being angry. What we didn't expect was a caked up George Russell sauntering around his office with skin tight clothes. Nor did we expect where the Duke ended...

This week we're unwrapping the penultimate episode of season 2 of "The Gilded Age". Our time has almost come to an end and we are as upset as a Duke eating a potentially spicy soup. This week gave us all the things we've come to love about "The Gilded Age": back cancer, floral arrangements, luncheon, 5 minutes of CGI fireworks, Bertha and George in their bedroom, scams, and another sister hug between Agnes and Ada. There are so many things unfolding with only one episode left! Will Marian...

This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast we unwrap Season 2 Episode 6 of "The Gilded Age!" Literally this was one of the best episodes of TV to grace our televisions in a long time. We were laughing. We were crying. We were learning about patents in 1877! There are twists, there are turns and sadly there are backaches that aren't just backahes! Aunt Agnes leaves her house TWICE in one episode AND George Russell shows us his soft side. He is the hottest robber baron HBO has ever seen and if we don't...

This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast we unwrap Season 2 Episode 5 of "The Gilded Age"! This week had it all: high stakes soup drama, Aunt Agnes leaving her house MULTIPLE times, an almost ruined dinner party, and the merest hint of sex between a married couple! There was of course other real drama like two characters being hunted but don't worry, they're ok! Our pantaloons were in a bunch with all the excitement from this week! Double soup hijinks in one episode? Calm down Julian Fellowes, our...

This week on Mummy Dearest we unwrap Season 2 Episode 4 of HBO's perfect melodrama "The Gilded Age"! This week we got a peek at the new Met (which methinks George has paid to complete but that remains to be seen...), we get a peek at the Duke, and we get to see 90's wicked stepmother level line delivery when Bertha steals the aforementioned Duke from her past lady maid / rival. Can you say DRAMA? The most low level drama of all time but still it's DRAMA and that's all we ask for! This season...

This week on Mummy Dearest we're unwrapping 2002's erotic thriller: Unfaithful. It's the perfect fall movie: it's got swirling windy garbage, falling leaves, cozy knitwear, affairs, stairwell encounters, landfills, and death by snow globe. Truly, what does't this movie have? We stay weirdly on topic for most of the podcast and actually discuss the movie. Obviously there are a few detours but we manage to keep it nice and tight on this week's episode of Mummy Dearest podcast!  Support the...

This week on Mummy Dearest, Zach and Sloane unwrap 2000's dying manic pixie dream girl May/December romantic drama: Autumn in New York! This movie hits us with a lot of classic Mummy Dearest tropes: wacky hats, unique jobs, beadwork, surprise galas, waltzes, smelling the air when rain is coming, and dramatic heart surgeries. Would we watch this film again? Absolutely not. Did it give us the cozy fall vibes we needed? Absolutely, yes. Do we go slightly off topic and talk about whether or not...
