Dawson S2 E14
Hey Mr. Peterson, what you did was wrong
S2 E13 "His Leading Lady" - Cosmetic Enhancement
Recording in July 2023. Took a while to post because we chased the episode with our Typical Saturday Night Muscle Relaxer and got caught up trying to get a sense of our own butts.
Dawson S2 E12 - "Uncharted Waters" The New Consumer Phenomenon
We’ve got rough waters ahead on this one, as the father-son fishing trip framework provides context for the insecurities that have defined our hero Pacey. Typically clueless Dawson fails to recognize the abuse his friends have experienced, focusing instead on Mitch’s struggles with Peter Pan syndrome. Though generally a lovable hunk of meat in Dawson’s orbit, in this episode even we must take exception with Mitch’s serial passivity. The women of this world have gathered to create what will undoubtedly be the most important news package ever filmed, as Jen assists Gale in telling the story of “Teenage Girls as the New Consumer Phenomenon.” This predictably goes nowhere, as Joey locks up and Andi just wants to eat snacks and watch a little parody porn. Once Abby takes the Chapelle soapbox and gets herself ejected from the discourse, we get another step toward healing for our core trio, and Gale realizes that she can be the parent we need all of them to have.
S2 E11 "Sex, She Wrote" - Our Little Who-Screwed-It
A belated but necessary tribute: We recorded this the day before Angela Lansbury passed. RIP to the Queen, whose iconic work was the inspiration for this DC episode. By her capable digits, a typewritten mystery of this virginity lost would require no White-Out. Our Blondes v. Brunettes Debate comes in Hot! Thankfully chilled by this episode’s rain motif, we roll directly into assessing the quality of our Heroes’ class projects. Following up on a cliffhanger, we must wonder which of our couples finally sealed the deal. Our Favorite Imp, Abby Morgan, leads the charge by harassing her friends into admitting some private details. While none seems to be a romance for the ages, as our trio of duos turns against itself, once more we find hurt feelings are as mandatory as a Capeside book fair.
S2 E 10 "High Risk Behavior" - You Can't Recall A Nude Man?
And we’re back! Lots to discuss here… our brief recap of the Dawson’s Creek cast members we’ve met, brief recap of the last year of our lives, brief recap of the episode we skipped… And maybe the soon-to-be-obvious brief revisit to the technical requirements of recording 1.5 hours of listenable audio [WHOOPS! It sounds rough!]. Join us as we scrump our way through the omni-syllabic screed that our favorite auteur has composed for his life. Dawson’s art fails to electrify on stage, while his muse Lil Joey Potter must witness the most analog of forms in the pursuit of her craft. Pacey deploys the element of surprise in order to woo Andi, whose expectations skew proto-cheugy, but in execution are no match for our old friend Prescription Narcotics. We hope to provide more commentary soon, and to improve its quality! Thanks for joining, and please stay tuned!
