Wistful Thinking

Welcome to part one of our very special crossover episode with High School Slumber Party! We're joined by that show's host, Brian Rodriguez, to talk about Grease. If you haven't seen Grease since you were a child, we guarantee you're remembering it wrong. Listen to us work our way through the problems and joys of this classic musical.

Wistful Thinking’s Boatcast maiden voyage pulls into port this week as Jordan and Cara talk about the 1989 sailing thriller, Dead Calm. Hear a pure reaction of enthusiasm to this week’s Reboot Roundup, a meditation on having curly hair on a sailboat, and a discussion on women’s trauma in film.

Wistful Thinking's Boatcast summer sails along with another failed blockbuster, the 1997 flop Speed 2: Cruise Control. Why does this movie exist? Cara and Jordan can't figure it out. But where else can you see Willem Dafoe covered in leeches and an imitation Keanu Reeves hitting on a 14-year-old deaf girl? Plus, we try a new reboot segment!

Jordan and Cara kick of their summer theme series, BOATCAST, with the notorious Kevin Costner flop from 1995, Waterworld. They discuss whether the movie is actually as bad as people remember, the many missed opportunities to make it better, how many people almost died while filming it, and pitch a Waterworld reboot as a live circus/dance show!

Inspired by recent real world events, Jordan and Cara revisit An American Tail. While discussing the 1986 animated classic, they talk about immigration, the terrifying realities of 2018, and sunshine sparkle.

In this episode, Jordan and Cara find themselves in the same room for the first time in six years, and marked the occasion by podcasting in each other's faces. They talked to CageClub's Joey Lewandowski and the host of High School Slumber Party, Brian Rodriguez, about childhood memories and the year 2008.

This week, Cara and Jordan watched the 90s Nickelodeon classic, Are You Afraid of the Dark? They talk about what scared them when they were young (and what scares them now), 90s fashion, and terrible children's television writing.

It's a royal wedding episode of Wistful Thinking this week as Jordan and Cara talk to Anthony about The Princess Bride. They discuss the film, how many times it almost became many other movies, its many terrible mustaches (and eyebrow extensions!) and they attempt another rousing game of Sequel MASH.

CageClub co-founder Joey Lewandowski is back to talk to Jordan and Cara about the 1997 classic, Titanic, which to nobody's surprise definitely holds up. They dig into why it's still so good, obsess about the beauty of Kate and Leo, and Cara brings all (or, at least most) of the boat facts.

To celebrate the first anniversary of the Wistful Thinking podcast, Jordan and Cara throw a birthday slumber party to celebrate! They talk about their favorite episodes so far, what they've learned doing the show, and engage in the grand slumber party traditions of skincare, talk of celebrity crushes, and finally figure out how to play a rousing game of MASH.

This week, Jordan, Cara, and their guest, Rob, talk about the widely panned (but much loved) Steven Spielberg movie, Hook. They ask the important questions like what is Captain Hook’s self care routine? How did Peter Pan become a business dad? And why is Tinkerbell the worst?

The hills are alive with the sound of this week's Wistful Thinking podcast! Jordan, Cara, and their guest, Sasha, talk about the 1965 musical classic, The Sound of Music.

Jordan and Cara are joined by Allie Polan-Clarke to talk about the 1997 movie Spice World starring none other than the Spice Girls. They talk about which Spice they’d be and look for important themes in this silly movie.

In this week's episode, Jordan and Cara catch up about some movies they watched, but didn't get a chance to podcast about for various reasons. They cover Bridget Jones's Diary (2001), Empire Records (1995), and Death Becomes Her (1992).

This week’s episode of Wistful Thinking continues the show’s winter sports programming as Cara, Jordan, and special guest Joey discuss Ice Princess, the Michelle Trachtenberg sleeper hit of ice rinks around the world.

In this week's episode, Cara is joined by CageClub Podcast Network co-founder Joey Lewandowski for a backdoor pilot to their figure skating movie podcast that will never be, We're With Weir. They talk about their biggest problematic fave (the Olympics), figure skating, I, Tonya, and the upcoming 2018 winter games in Pyeongchang. They also talk about The Cutting Edge, a movie that's got something for everyone: physical comedy, romance, high stakes competition, TRAINING MONTAGES, and even -- perhaps -- a Grand Unifying Theory of the CageClub Podcast Network Universe.

In today’s Wistful Thinking, Jordan and Cara look back at some of the things they thought were most memorable about 2017, including lady power, an overwhelming news cycle, and nature being awesome.
