Marc and Juan dive into our first tragically Shosh-less episode. Topics discussed include Chris O'Dowd's insane American accent, Meet Joe Black, the ethics of threatening to urinate on other people's clothes, and pedophilia-as-comedy. Stay tuned for our worst/best outro music ever, and show notes can be found at https://workingnotes.substack.com/s/boys-who-like-girls
Juan and Marc (with a "c") return with an episode on one of the early fan-favourite episodes of Girls. Topics discussed include Lena Dunham's canine-based antisemitism, professors' drug abuse and drone show proclivities, why TV shows don't have fun tie-in websites anymore, and our love of chipotle and gentrification.

In honour of the late David Lynch, Juan and Marc discuss S1E06 of Girls, "The Return," which finds Hannah caught in an ominous dimension outside of space and time, aka Michigan. Topics discussed include the difficulties of movie selection with your parents, the Marxist contradictions of the town/country divide, Richard Linklater, and why New Yorkers are better than everyone else.

After our longest hiatus yet, we return with our best episode yet, and if you start listening at 10:58:17 PM on NYE, you can ring in the New Year with the audio of me saying "JOI." Topics discussed include achieving spiritual Boomerdom, guys with Electra complexes about their own dads, the 70th most popular Film/TV podcast in Ghana, and HBO’s cowardliness regarding male nudity. Also: our first piece of listener mail!
Marc and Juan return to discuss S1E4 of Girls, "Hannah's Diary." Topics discussed include how HBO sources its dick pics, Girls' Seinfeldian approach to race politics, whether Hannah's boss ever got #MeToo'd, and the early internet's "culture of confession." Our mailbag is bwlgpod@gmail.com; show notes and Marc's diagram are posted at Juan's blog.
We return after an intensive four-month editing process to bring you a new BWLG installment. Topics discussed include pederasty, the history of TV abortions, Dan Harmon falling off, and doing bits for your therapist.
