Olive and Eliza recap and review the sixth episode of season 4: Glease! The New Directions kick off their production of Grease within a week, famously one of the most expensive, largest cast shows high schoolers could ever do. That's not a problem though, as the Glee club's budget and cast size is only ever a problem when the writers remember it is! In case you missed Rachel Berry last episode, don't worry - she's back and crying more than ever! Episode contains prolonged discussions of...

Olive and Eliza recap and review the fifth episode of season 4: The Role You Were Born to Play! Finn Hudson is back at McKinley and off to a rocky (horror) start as he gets pulled into directing their production of Grease - with a love triangle already brewing for the new kids! Blake Jenner makes his debut after winning the Glee Project, with the most milk-toast character since Powered Toast Man. Episode contains no known trigger warnings. Please message us on social media if you'd like us...

Olive and Eliza recap and review the fourth episode of season 4: The Break Up! This episode devastates with some of the most brilliant and heart-breaking covers Glee has ever showcased.

Olive and Eliza recap and review the third episode of season 4: Makeover! As we finalize the reinvention of Rachel Berry, this episode truly feels like a blast from the past with enough 2012 jokes it almost hurts. Remember Sarah Palin? Remember Bush? We'd rather not, and yet we suffered through the episode to bring you this - you're welcome! Episode contains no known trigger warnings. Please message us on social media if you'd like us to add one!

Olive and Eliza recap and review the second episode of season 4: Britney 2.0! If you're ready for the steep nose dive of the once-great New Direction, here it comes! While there are plenty of great covers in this episode, there are twice as many reasons to hate the ridicule of Britney Spears within the media of the 2010s. Even when Britney's not the center of attention, all the new characters continue to make bad decisions in pursuing "good drama" - what's new? 43:35 - Mention of statutory...

Olive and Elizarecap and review the first episode of seasion 4: the New Rachel! While the New Directions compete over who can be the new annoying main character, things aren't so great up for the real Rachel in New York. Your hosts learn a lot about Kate Hudson in this episode, and even more about getting upset at characters switching sides for the first time in four seasons! Thanks for rejoining our yearly journey - we hope you like our podcast more than we like this season! General trigger...

Olive and Eliza make the Glee cast go to college - or at least, the colleges they should've gone to instead! Where would our New Directions be if the Glee writers had any direction in guiding them off to fulfilling lives? Thanks for joining us for these silly lil mini-episodes to kick off season four - we'll see you in hell soon!

Olive and Eliza discuss the question for the ages: what if Glee was a TV show made today? Who would we cast, and how would it be a better show overall? In this two-part mini-episode, the hosts discuss various headcanons to kick off the viewing of Season 4 - here's to Glee's inevitable plummet into terror!

Olive and Eliza recap and review the FINAL EPISODE of season three; Goodbye! This might've just been a perfect ending to the first three seasons of Glee, but it's certainly not the end of our podcast! thanks to everyone who's listened along and laughed with us for the past year, and be sure to join us next year when we tackle the onslaught of season 4! Godspeed and happy holidays! Trigger warning for general allusions to Cory Montieth's death. Twitter: @SingsationsPod Instagram:...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode twenty-one of season three; Nationals! Resident Twitter bully John Osborn joins us for the (not quite) finale of our season as the New Directions ships off to Chicago for the most important performance of ALL TIME! Or so the show would like us to believe... We are also graced with the stunning performance of a Meatloaf classic. Say your prayers for Olive to submit the episode for a final grade in college - think we'll get an A+? 13:03, 47:51 -...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode twenty of season three; Props! Tina gets thrown around like a human prop this episode after banging her head on a mall fountain, gracing us with images of Darren Criss in a mohawk. It may just be filler before we get to the most epic performances of the year, but who ever said the road to Chicago was easy? Episode contains discussion of marital abuse throughout. Twitter: @SingsationsPod Instagram: singsationspod Facebook: The Singsations...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode nineteen of season three; Prom-asaurus! While McKinley High throws one of the weirdest prom themes ever, the glee club struggles to find thematically appropriate songs and just wings it. We're torn on whether Rachel Berry is horribly annoying or weirdly justified for her annoying-ness in this episode... Maybe both? Episode contains no known trigger warnings. Please message us on social media if you'd like us to add one! Twitter:...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode eighteen of season three; Choke! Kurt and Rachel have the biggest and best performances of their lives coming up... or at least, one of them does. Although we'd love to focus on how amazing Chris Colfer turned his audition, things quickly turn sour. Puck and Beiste both deal with some heavy realizations about their loved ones and their futures, spliced together by editing that really makes you go "Yikes! Was that intentional?" Episode contains heavy...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode seventeen of season three; Dance With Somebody! Join us for this beautiful tribute to the late Whitney Houston as the New Directions try to shove in as many covers as they can before graduation! With the ever-looming specter of time slowing approaching each senior, relationships are all put to the test when trust is challenged - nothing that can't be wrapped up in a tight 60 minutes, though! Episode contains no known trigger warnings. Message us on...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode sixteen of season three; Saturday Night Glee-ver! Your hosts go bonkers for disco music this weeks as the New Directions are forced to come to terms with their impending graduation. As much as we'd love to praise the absolute banger performances this week, we're a bit too distracted by another uncomfortable plotline with underage characters and getting sad about Cory Monteith. Episode contains no known trigger warnings. Message us on social media if...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode fifteen of season three; Big Brother! All eyes are on Blaine in this episode as his hot but insufferable older brother comes to town to give acting lessons and credit score ratings. Puck is coming around to f**k with Finn's life once again, but shouldn't that really be expected at this point? Also: theme parks should be more handicapped accessible! Episode contains no known trigger warnings. Message us on social media if you'd like us to add...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode fourteen of season three; On My Way! Everything you could imagine happens this episode HAPPENS, with Regionals and Sebastian rearing their ugly heads. Sue has fallen to sub-level villain status as Sebastian commits actual crimes, and the Warblers don't seem to mind... On the bright side, there's Cough Syrup. Episode contains heavy discussion of suicide, please proceed with caution Twitter: @SingsationsPod Instagram: singsationspod Facebook: The...

This week, Olive and Eliza are recapping season three, episode thirteen, Heart! Things get wild as the New Directions gear up for Valentine's Day, the Berry and Hudson-Hummel parents team up to try and convince Finn and Rachel what Eliza has been saying for weeks (do NOT get married this young!), while Rory and Artie have a mid-off to try and get Sugar Motta (she's back) to be their date. Dave Karofsky is also back to set up something big for next episode... 17:59 - homophobia 28:51 -...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode twelve of season three; The Spanish Teacher! Ricky Martin guests stars this episode and the patient night school teacher explicitly designed to teach Will Schuester how to do his job. The drama gets a little dragged, out but we'd like to think it's in the pursuit of a good lesson. We can't ask much from the adults on this show, but can at least one of them behave normally around their students? Episode contains consistent discussion of the offensive...

Olive and Eliza take a look at episode eleven of season three: Michael! Between advocating for finishing college before you get married, Eliza hating on Sebastian, and griping again about the New Directions never doing the same song twice, our hosts still find time to cringe at some of the cinematography and be baffled about the inclusion of 2013 YouTube sensations. This episode features so. many. songs. Do YOU remember 2Cellos? Eliza sure didn't. 9:45 - brief mention of suicide RE Dave...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode ten of season three, Yes/No! There are many scenes in this episode that have us screaming NO, such as Artie getting thrown into a pool or the REAL Helen Mirren being roped into the zany world of Glee! Did you know McKinley had an Olympic swimming pool on school grounds? We sure didn't, and we're glad we're not being proposed to there. 33:50-38:15 - prolonged discussion of deceased parents, PTSD, and drug abuse Twitter: @SingsationsPod Instagram:...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode nine of season three, Extraordinary Merry Christmas! If our episode is shorter than usual this week, that is because this was essentially half-Glee episode, half-Holiday PSA. We're happy anyways because it means seeing as little of Mr. Shue as possible! Sue Sylvester's personality is acting wonky again, but when is it not? We hope you have a fantastic Christmas in June, as always! Episode contains no trigger warnings. Please message us on our social...

Olive and Eliza recap and review episode eight of season three, Hold On To Sixteen! Our rival glee clubs have barely chosen songs in time for Sectionals, and Mike gets a chance to (more or less) prove to himself and his dad what he was meant to do! Quinn is still spiraling down a rabbit hole, of course, and for some reason, Rachel has to be the voice of reason, even when suspended. Can we get an episode all about therapy next? Episode contains heavy discussion of student/teacher...
