Blondes With Glasses!
We are Becca and Shannon, two blondes with glasses. We’re best friends currently living very far apart, so we’ve decided to start this podcast - Blondes (With Glasses!) as an outlet for our marathon conversations. A mix of pop culture critiques, everyday feminism, and goofy friendship is what you will get in each episode. Other than that, we can’t guarantee where this adventure will take us. Welcome! And please enjoy the show. (We certainly do!) Follow us here: blondeswithglassespodcast.tumblr.com
BWG 145- The Women's World Cup is the best World Cup
It's our World Cup Wrap Up, ya'll! Becca is back in the United States from her whirlwind trip abroad to see the USWNT play and win (not only the trophy, but all our hearts)! We discuss the highlights and lowlights of the tournament and generally fawn over all the players. Plus, we take some tangents into other aspects of Becca's trip, including the lack of MPAA in French Film Festivals and leaving your life behind to become a chocolate aficionado. And, as always, with finish with recommendations for each other. Becca has a million movies that she loved recently, including the new "Spiderman: Far From Home" and Shannon recommends Linda Holmes' debut book "Evvie Drake Starts Over"

BWG 144- World Cup and Haircuts
On this episode, we're discussing what's been weighing on our minds recently. For Becca, that means the World Cup and how being a fan of a female centered sport causes friction in the real world. For Shannon, that means debating herself about haircuts and how presenting yourself to the world is endlessly difficult. And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

BWG 143 - Goodbye to GoT
Honestly, we're not fans of Game of Thrones and haven't been for a long while. Still, it's the end of an era and we wouldn't be doing our duty as pop culture fans if we didn't dedicate an episode of our own to this show and it's unhappy end. And, as always, we end with recommendations for each other.

BWG 141 - Not So Current Events
We're back at it again with a take on (sort-of) current events. We discuss the Royal Wedding, the swift end to Roseanne, movies now playing in Florida, and...sigh... The Bachelor. And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other. Becca tells us all to watch the movie "Book Club" and Shannon has a book for everyone to enjoy - "The Royal We."

BWG 140 - Avengers Infinity War
It's a two-for-one episode this week! Becca first sat down with Zach to discuss the newest Marvel movie. After that, she caught up with Shannon and asked the same questions! Between us all, we rehash our favorite moments, what questions remain, and where the franchise goes from here. And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

BWG 139- It's Gonna Be May
Your hosts are back again! I know - unbelievable, right?? We do what we do best these days, catch up on each other's lives and the media we've enjoyed while we were away. Really there are too many highlights to mention, but let's just say Netflix is killing it with the original material these days. See you after Avengers: Infinity War to discuss if it let us down!!

BWG 138- Catching Up Again
We're terrible, no-good podcast hosts that break promises. We apologize for going off the grid - during Oscar season no less! But we finally got the chance to sit back down and catch up on what we've missed in each other's lives and in current pop culture. It's just one big recommendation, basically (except for The Bachelor - eff that finale, right?). We make no promises to be back next week this time, because like it or not, we're reasonable adults.

BWG 137- Catching Up
Aaaaand we're back! Finally!! We're redoubling our efforts to make time for each other and this podcast on our mutual Mondays off. Starting things off is a huge discussion of what we've missed while we've been gone. More of the #metoo movement, the upcoming Olympics, award season ennui, and how we are processing it all. Of course, we give each other recommendations along the way. Becca says "Get Out" is the only Oscar must-see. And Shannon wants everyone to give "Canada's Worst Driver" a try on Netflix.

BWG 136- Sexual Harassment Culture
Becca and Shannon are back for a much-needed discussion of Hollywood and sexual harassment culture, or as Becca calls it, a culture of assholes. This was a shorter discussion due to time constraints and will likely have a part two soon. Becca recommends heartily Big Family Cooking Showdown on Netflix, as well as Alias Grace, One of Us, Get Out, and I Love You America. Shannon recommends a cleanse of male creators in your pop culture as well as the West Wing Weekly podcast.
