Dua Lipa Radical Optimism - Can Dance Music Be Thoughtful?
The Legendary Ladies Podcast
On this week’s episode of The Legendary Ladies Podcast - it’s a Duo Dua Lipa episode! Which makes it sounds like we have Dua Lipa on the podcast…which we don’t. But Amy and Kat did review her newest album, Radical Optimism. And we were so excited to chat about a clean, crisp album that was an easy listen filled with earworms, a lighter version of romantic storytelling, and an album that succeeds in it’s task to share some radical optimism (especially in a popular music world filled with what seems to be an overwhelming amount of reactionary introspection). We have our top 5 - but...

Netflix’s Damsel: Is Not Being A Damsel in Distress Now a Trope?
The Legendary Ladies Podcast
We watched Netflix's new fantasy action movie Damsel, starring Millie Bobby Brown. Did we enjoy the movie? Um...not quite. The Legendary Ladies (minus Amy due to wifi issues) dive into Netflix's newest collaboration with Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown. We ask, as always, who is this for? Why wasn't the main character more interesting in a movie that's basically just about one character? Did this movie subvert the damsel in distress trope and at this point does that trope even need to be subverted? Join us as we discuss this new movie and beware of spoilers! Support Kat,...

During the course of this nearly two hour episode, Amy and Morgan break down the characters, the plot, and the other elements that wove their wave into this series. What did we think about Katara’s complete lack of growth?...

It's the episode you've been waiting for! The Legendary Ladies are here with their review of the first episode of Netflix's new Avatar: The Last Airbender series.

Among a host of other topics, they discuss the changes at the start of the episode and the introduction of the Air Nomads, what they feel about the choices made by the creators regarding Aang's character, and whether or not changes in the plot actually affected the flow of the story.

In this duo episode, Kat and Amy sit down to talk about the return of Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares. From drama to downright disgusting, the Legendary Ladies chat about the first episode of the 2023 series. But beyond the look at the episode, the hosts discuss why shows like this do so well as a returning series, what scripted series lack that reality television has, and whether or not the pandemic made Kitchen Nightmares hit a little closer to home, no matter the audience.
