Bonus Episode! Irrelevant Host Banter 13: Ray and Liz & Dick
Hooray! We have a bonus episode: our 13th edition of Irrelevant Host Banter, with a flashback to mid-2024 with Episode 25: Ray and Episode 26: Liz & Dick.
These are some outtakes that were cut for running time, and/or because we were digressive or repetitive.
Think of it as Sara and Rena having a conversation in non sequiturs. We jump around in a senseless, context-deprived manner, and you should definitely skip this episode and download any normal episode from “Episode 10: Cobb” onwards if this is your first time listening.
Includes material cut from:
Episode 25: Ray
Episode 26: Liz & Dick
Highlights include:
Rena fuming about other podcast hosts boring her by talking about what they are wearing or drinking.
Another dead brother.
The time that Sara and Rena saw the Cats movie together: “Do you remember like halfway through that when we realized when I was like, their ears are moving. Like the horror was like the horror washed over you so slowly.”
David Eigenberg appreciation.
Speculating on the budget for Liz & Dick.
Love for Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure.
Relief that Lawrence Olivier did not win an Oscar for Othello.
And much more, of course.
Spoiler Warning: We spoil everything. And we enjoy it.
