Episode 73: Coherence

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/11/17

This episode is a random rumblings of everything that makes Your Mother Ate My Dog a tolerable podcast. Jesse is sick and his voice disintigrates over the entire episode, including a brief moment as a chipmunk. It's a good movie this week and I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Episode 72: Life of Pi

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/11/11

What's your favourite type of pie? This week, the boys tackle a big one, Life of Pi, which was a very successful book (which 1/2 the hosts are finding out for the first time) and movie as well. There's some trivia, some box office talk, and a bunch of singing for some reason.

Episode 71: Leprechaun

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/11/03

Much like the film, this could be the worst one yet. The guys talk about buying a bookstore and are dead serious. Jennifer Aniston was great, but nothing else really was. Sorry. Next time maybe.

Episode 70: Insomnia

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/10/19

People say our voices are so soothing that it will put you right to sleep. Well, what if you lived in an Alaskan town where the sun never goes down and you accidentally shot and killed your detective partner? Not so easy to sleep then, even if this podcast had been around in 2002. Al Pacino, Robin Williams nearly bore us to death in this "psychological thriller", but we do get to talk some fun stuff like magazine subscriptions, big college football games and probably a whole lot more!

Episode 68: To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie...

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/10/05

Quite a mouthful, which is exactly how you would describe this episode. Lots of words were said, many were good words, but to be honest, some were lazy words. We could have picked smarter words. We talk about why we weren't around the last few weeks, what we've been watching, and then we dig deep into this crazy film which stars Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo in drag. Enjoy!

Episode 67: Barbie

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/09/14

It's 2023 and what else would we want to watch but Barbie? Tangents are had, and there is a brief audio mishap that forces one of the boys to riff uncomfortably by themselves. It's an action-packed hour of Your Mother Ate My Dog!

Episode 66: Swordfish

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/09/07

The boys are back after an extended summer holiday, and they decide to talk about that movie from 2001 you don't remember - John Travolta's Swordfish. Lots of talk about Samoa and Fiji and paddling, and trying to find a small Australian Island. It was a fun episode to start the fall season, so come give it a listen!

Episode 65: Prince of Darkness

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/07/27

We are LIVE from Jesse's living room as Your Mother Ate My Dog does their first in-person podcast recording. Just two dudes talking about an old horror movie from 1987 and what was liked and not liked about the film, which is the premise of the last 64 episodes as well. This is the last episode for a few weeks as we take a few weeks off for a trip to Samoa to visit one of the two islands (still not sure which one). Enjoy!

Episode 64: The Ladykillers

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/07/20

Josh and Jesse are known as quite the ladykillers themselves, so they jumped at the opportunity to review the movie of the same name. Tom Hanks talking in a southern twang, what's not to love? Turns out, not a whole lot. But, we get to learn more about Jesse and that's worth a listen!

Episode 63: Crash

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/07/13

The podcast loves reviewing Academy Award Best Picture-winning movies, and that does not stop with this one! It's Crash, you know, the 2004 film where everybody is racist and nobody really learns from their mistakes? It's been a while since we recorded so there was a lot of catch-up, and we talk about movies we watched recently that were better than this one. Enjoy!

Episode 62: Face/Off

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/06/22

Welcome to the second annual "Jesse's Birthday" episode, where we talk about him almost incessantly. Hey did you hear about that submersible who got lost going to see the Titanic? A Costco trip gone bad! A trip to the hospital operating room! Favourite chocolate bars! Jesse sees a movie without Josh! And so much more!

Episode 61: The Man Who Wasn't There

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/06/15

Josh and Jesse return from a one-week break with a PSA about the dangers of driving a car in a foreign country. They dig deep into shower thoughts and talk about a Coen Brothers movie that may or may not have hit the mark. The film is in black and white, but this podcast sure had a lot of colour!

Episode 60: But I'm A Cheerleader

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/06/01

Episode 60! We've picked a movie to watch for this one for sure, a cult classic from 1999 starring Natasha Lyonne as a cheerleader. Pretty insane stuff. Going to America soon and excited to try the different (and bad for you) foods, so we talked about that a bit. What else, oh somehow we got this episode to an hour but didn't really talk about much except for the movie. And the number 60? Tom Hanks plays a prominent role as always. Thanks Tom! Enjoy!

Episode 59: The Foreigner

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/05/25

A Jackie Chan action movie? Pierce Brosnan doing an Irish accent that is apparently just his normal voice? What's more to love? It took a lot to get to this movie, but we made it. We talk about a Victoria staple coming to a close and how that may affect the podcast going forward, which includes our plan to buy it and make it better. Other things happen and we have another fun episode! Movies!

Episode 58: The Faculty

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/05/18

This week we delve into the cult classic alien film, "The Faculty", starring all of your favourite side characters from the 90's, 2000's, and today! We bring back the "Cat Talk" segment and talk about some behind the scenes trade secrets of one of our high profile government jobs. Justin Trudeau, don't listen to this! Anyways, things get wacky, but not too wacky, so a pretty decent episode to fall asleep to!

Episode 57: Waterworld

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/05/11

We have finally cracked and watched the iconic cinematic masterpiece that is Kevin Costner's Waterworld. No, not the ride at Universal Studios, although that is something we would love to experience right now instead of our mundane 9-5 lives. This was a movie for sure, and the episode really should have been called "1995" because we spent a lot of time talking about that year, and also free cars. Anyways, have a listen and let us know what you think. Should we keep this ol' thing

Episode 56: Smoke Signals

Your Mother Ate My Dog! ·

2023/05/04

This episode starts off with a LISTENER DISCRETION ADVISORY. Look, we all do it. Isn't it cuter when it comes from a cat though? Smoke Signals is one of those rare good movies we watch and both have nothing bad to say about, which doesn't make it boring. We dig in to another box office weekend from 2009 and spend some time at IKEA. Fun!
