A Chick Flick Podcast
In this episode we go long and deep—which is more than we can say for Michael, Lionel, and Troy #lols.
Friendship perseveres and this film grasps hard at what it means to be a woman. Listen to it 732 times…or light it on fire…but maybe at least listen to it once, first.

If you don’t have a strong opinion about Eminem then you have a lot in common with Jenna Rink. Go back in time and then forward in time and then back in time and then to present day with us, your hosts, Helen and Valerie, in this fun wish fulfillment chick flick. It will be fabuloso.
In accord with this, arguably, too long movie — we present this, arguably, too long podcast episode. Also harmonious to the movie, there will be sisters and champagne.
No one is going to Spice Force Five you to listen to this episode, but if you’re looking to recommit yourself to girl power— this is prime opportunity. In this episode, Helen admits to “playing” Spice Girls as a child and I don’t even tease her (don’t even hear her). I’m favoring whichever scenario I come out looking like a better sister.
Join us on our journey through time, chicas to the front—every boy and every girl—Spice Up Your Life.
Our second episode is perfect for a drinking game.
Here are the rules:
1) Drink every time I (Valerie) repeat what Helen has just said.
2) Drink every time Helen and Valerie achieve “one voice”.
3) Drink every time I (Valerie) talk over Helen.
But whatever you do…do not drink every time I (Valerie) say “in the book”, because honestly, I just don’t think you’ll survive it—and we need love you, dear listeners.

We are learning a lot right now about how to produce and deliver episodes that you’ll enjoy listening to. Our goal is to have a conversation with all of you about the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of female-driven cinema. We hope that each episode will offer information about the culture of the chick flick and that you’ll actively participate in the ongoing conversation. The impact that chick flick culture has on our society is fairly large and deserves thoughtful exploration.
If nothing else, we hope that our thoughts and insights will at least offer a laugh because hey, we’re funny for women*.
*not a real thing, women are funny—dammit.
