Get ready to go to Hélio in a handbasket, because Chris and Katy are ready to go to fisticuffs over the semi-finals of DWTS season 5! This strange season is gearing up for a strange conclusion, but to get there we have to say some inevitable farewells first. Chris begins a vendetta that is sure to continue forever, Katy gets an update about DanceCenter, and also Richard Simmons shows up. Or is it Gene Simmons? They are very similar, of course.

QUICKSTEP REAX: Season 30, Week 5 (Grease Night)

Just Meaningful Plastic: A DWTS Retrospective ·

2021/10/19

Why not have a Grease Night? It's Tyra's favorite movie (that she watched for the first time this weekend), and Grease and DWTS go together like rama lama lama kamandakloots dinga dong. Katy and Megan are ready to talk about the dances that honor this much loved movie musical, and both are perhaps pleasantly surprised? But they also hate who they always hate and love who they always love, so they really need to venture outside of their normal cliques. Maybe get a perm, put on some leather pants,

Surprise, it’s a double elimination on the second new episode of DWTS this week! Katy and Megan dissect the dances that honor the iconic villains and music of Disney. Y’know, songs like “Dangerous Woman” by Ariana and “Bad Guy” by Billie Eyelash. With music selections like that, your hosts and their producer get into fights and go off on tangents from second one.

2021/10/12

It’s time for everyone’s favorite DWTS corporate synergy event: Disney Night! It starts off with a bang and… kind of hangs? It’s a night where some stars fly, while others have overstayed their welcome. Katy forms a mortal enemy and Megan endures emotional torment. Just another night in the ballroom, really! Derek might have pushed Megan a hair too far, a samba roll happened, and somebody takes a nap while they should be producing a podcast. Thanks to the producers’ inimitable decision-making, it’s

It’s time to get derailed, as both JMP and season 5 of DWTS are about to go very wrong! Katy and Chris try to adequately cover weeks 6 and 7, but how can you when the most infamous elimination in Dancing history occurs? It’s an episode filled with tangents, impromptu ad reads, jewelry shopping, contract discussions, and far too much hatred about events that took place 14 years ago. It was a tragedy, is a tragedy, and we are BIG MAD. We have an enemie, and their name is... well, we won't spoil it

QUICKSTEP REAX: Season 30, Week 3 (Britney Night)

Just Meaningful Plastic: A DWTS Retrospective ·

2021/10/05

It’s Britney, b***h! Unfortunately, while Britney may be free, Katy and Megan are trapped by the terrors of the DWTS producers and one Tyra Banks. Your hosts are befuddled by why Cody is still competing, they’re charmed by the enthusiasm of many of the contestants, and most shockingly, they’re warming up to Jojo and to Olivia Jade. It’s not Halloween yet, but this is quickly becoming a house of horrors. Follow us on Twitter @JMPPod, on Facebook at Just Meaningful Plastic, or on Instagram at

Prelude to a Tragedy

This week is fine. This week is good. We're just not going to worry about next week. Everything's okay! Chris spends time with a dog, Shirley Ballas and Susan Lucci both appear for the first time, Katy has a realization about her mental health journey, Carver Clay does ASMR, and, oh yeah, Marie falls down. It's fine! It's fine. Everything is fine. Follow us on Twitter @JMPPod, on Facebook at Just Meaningful Plastic, or on Instagram at @jmp.pod Podcast art: Kat Fey Music: "Mister Capone" by Alex

Well, it has happened. Katy has yelled at another co-host in pure anger, Megan has cried at her first dance, and Producer Chris has jumped on mic. Who could have guessed it would only take two episodes of DWTS’ 30th season to get to this point? And if you want Katy's Change.org petition to be a thing, let us know.

If you are Mark Cuban, congratulations! This episode features a free psychoanalysis by a noted professional*, and obviously because you are Mark Cuban, you are in desperate need of things that are free. If you aren't Mark Cuban, there's still something for you here. Multiple attempts at the same bit, accidental love, a devastating wig, Edyta's fury over Tony's bias against zoos, and more await you as Chris and Katy continue these early days of DWTS' fifth season! *Not at all a professional Follow us

We promised instant, folks, and instant is what you got! It’s the 30th season of DWTS, and Katy and Megan are not mad at it? Tyra is still no Tom and Olivia Jade is not most famous for YouTube, but there are some real gems to be found here. And stay for the three most important questions- is Artem’s hairstyle good, should there be tangos in week one, and should Sharna and BAG get it on on the dance floor???

Chris got injured twice while recording this episode, and was it worth it? Perhaps not, but the dynamic duo talks about beloved dance epic Titanic this week! Katy loves this movie, Chris thinks it's great but very sad, and both love "My Heart Will Go On".

WARNING: This episode is borderline unlistenable, but it’s also some of our best work. Anyway, welcome to London, but a bizarrely cat-themed London with people but also cats made of digital fur technology! Cats (2019) is a disasterpiece, in the greatest way.

Do you enjoy two people sniping at each other while Katy emerges from the fray as a true adult? Good news- this episode will satisfy those needs. Katy brings Dirty Dancing (1987) to the movie exchange, and she invited Chris' friend Alex Restrepo to help defend the movie against his protestations. Chris having a really bad bout of allergies won't stop him, and Katy's hatred of the Bindi-Derek recreation of the finale dance won't stop her from loving this movie. Also, somehow, Titanic comes up

He brings Swing Time (1936) to the table, for this first week of a special miniseries where your hosts swap some of their favorite dance films. Did Katy regret agreeing to this?

Katy and Chris each pick their Top Five dances of the first four DWTS seasons, as well as a least favorite dance. There are some true surprises in this episode, and one contestant is a loser again by the most shocking of turns. And also, who could have guessed, Chris still loves Mario and his paso.
