Episodes 2.02 & 2.03: "Your Family Has the Worst Apples"

Don't Forget the Chickpeas

We stand in full support of Palestinian liberation and believe that Israel should end its genocidal violence and occupation. If you don’t agree, please fuck off.
This week, we cover 2.02, “The Goodbye Look”, and 2.03, “My Name is Trouble”! We discuss apologies, ableism, Ali flashbacks, whether there’s anyone buried in the DiLaurentis yard yet, and of course, the most chaotic characters. We use too many phrases from cooking shows, and Cameron sings a Deepa not-so-original song for us.

Our awesome theme song is composed by Ashok R. Chandran! You can find his other work at his website.

Chickpeas Oh My Gosh: Roast them with your favorite spices!

Fashion Analysis: Our best and worst outfits, and a couple others we mentioned!

Deepa’s Literary Analysis: Ezra quotes Joseph Campbell in his goodbye speech to his Rosewood High English class. Unfortunately Joseph Campbell was an anti-Black, antisemitic, racist, sexist, homophobic fuck, and the “Hero’s Journey” is trash

Things We Referenced Related to PLL:

• Mona calling Aria “Big A” is part of the Aria is A theory!

Things We Referenced Completely Unrelated to PLL:

• CSI: Miami’s Wing Chicks!
• The Danby scout being Community’s banana man (content warning for zombies. yes, zombies)
• Scouting in Friday Night Lights
• Sooo many Kesha songs (We’ve decided the hummus song is referencing The Harold Song, a not super popular Kesha song from 2010)
