Kitten with a Whip and Sadism without the Sex

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/07/30

For our final episode in our “Summer of Mis-Spent Youth,” we tackle perhaps the most baffling of all the teenage criminal movies – Kitten with a Whip. Like David Stratton, we just can’t quit Jody. But we’re more than capable of shouting our advice at him anyway. Listen for a poignant moment when Devori’s soul leaves her body in frustration. (cw: murder, molestation in reference to the plot). Host Segments: Vicky Mendoza Parallel; Kitten ex Machina; Jeff gets real dark; Sex Kitten Castle Doctrine;

Untamed Youth and Stepdaddy Issues

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/07/16

Wow - Mamie Van Doren has...talents! And we talk about both of them in our episode covering Untamed Youth! What happens when rowdy teens are only mildly rowdy? It should be noted that Joe cut out probably the most scintillating discussion for time - Devori talking about the war between barber-surgeons and physicians. But - it turned out pretty good anyway. (cw: miscarriage, sexual assault, racial slur)Host Segments: #HerToo; we could take a toddler; Jeff has a problem with authority; Joe's ode to

Teenage Strangler and Putting a Ring On It

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/07/02

This episode ended up a touch longer than normal, but that’s only because we’re such a fan of teenage stranglers. No – people who strangle teenagers. Wait – this is coming out all wrong. *backs out of room* *turns off lights*Strangling semantics; life with Mikey; barf medium; Jeff gets defensive – just like an only child; Devori’s Wide Wide World of Serial Killers; hysterical feedback loops; our content is a good size; MiMi absolutely won’t do that; we have strong opinions about janitors; our

The Beatniks and When Your Friends Can't Stand Your S.O.

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/06/18

This week, we talk about a movie about beatniks that inexplicably has no beatniks in it. Seriously. Not a beatnik to be seen. There’s a crooner. Some juvenile delinquents, maybe. But we didn’t see one beret. Nor did anyone snap. And we watched really carefully.Host segments: You Might Be A Beatnik; do these people have parents?; Tony Travis is The One; dill comma whole; hungover children; Harry’s got a type; aggressively apathetic; arcanejuggzz is a thing.

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/06/04

This episode, we're delving into one of our favorite Rifftrax Lives - Jack the Giant Killer! Along the way, we find we just can't help bringing up Samantha Fox...again. Listen as Devori is slowly driven mad by her own childhood existential crises and her fear of 1960s-era Disney animation. You can also audibly hear the moment Jeff is reminded that Birdemic exists.Host segments: the pragmatics of life riffing; a history of Jack the Giant Killer; evil wizard logistics; www.arcanejugs.com vs.

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/04/09

AAAAH. WE'RE HUGE...fans of this episode. Well, some of us are. What does it mean to be amazing? Colossal? A man?

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/03/12

We wanted to talk about hard-boiled detectives, hysterical dames, and the pseudo-scientific origins of the modern Prometheus myth, but mostly we just end up screaming about taquitos.Host segments: not normally Devori's thing; MiMi's all bitter; don't invite The Butcher to your heist; a taquito fancast; two chicks at once; hysterical in the Angry Dome; the problem with serial shorts; very intersectional; banal AND infuriating.Please remember to like, share, rate, and subscribe - find us on Twitter

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/02/26

We’re finally taking on the new classic from Season 12, Mac and Me! We have so many questions that we want to address; What happened to the dad? How could the aliens have been contained in the facility? Is Mac from the moon? Mars? An asteroid? But most importantly, we discuss just would happen if Joe Don Baker was loose in a McDonald’s. A series of liquid and gas-filled bladders, super-human/sub-alien, Jeff tells us what’s the deal with rum; alien-based traumas; Joe as target audience; Jeff probes

SoL-Mates: Love and MST3K ·

2019/01/29

First off, we're absolutely thrilled to finally have an episode that doesn't sound like one of us is down a well. Secondly, we're continuing Nuclear Winter with a kaiju who's certainly one of the kaiju - Gamera! On the cutting room floor - a lengthy conversation about whether or not Jeff has seen Fletch, and whether or not Fletch is good. Devori writes the episode descriptions, though - so Fletch is very, very good.Host segments: Good throat meat; Turtle gap year; Gamera isn't here, man; Mrs. Kenny
