Girls 2.9 On All Fours AKA Everyone's Menty B
Sex and the Cidiots
Well this episode was unpleasant to watch! There’s an iconic musical performance at a party by Marnie, and everything else is even harder to watch, somehow — Hannah’s physical self-destruction, to both butt and ear, as she flips out about her book — and Adam’s really rough fall off the wagon and into some problematic-to-bad sex with his nice new girlfriend. Also, there’s Shosh getting the ick from everything Ray does, and a cameo from Amy Schumer. Every other episode drops on the Sex and the Cidiots feed, and EVERY episode is over on . Thanks for your support, everybody!

Girls 2.7 Video Games AKA The Awful Johanssons
Sex and the Cidiots
Hey, have you ever watched Girls and been like, “why does Jessa suck so much?” Well, wonder no longer! This episode takes a trip upstate to meet her dad (Ben Mendelsohn!) and his wife (Rosanna Arquette!!), a couple of stone cold weirdos who eat nothing but rabbit and do basically nothing. Hannah has a sexcapade with a goofy high schooler in a turtleneck, we do some whippets, and Jessa bails, but probably not for good. Alternating episodes are up on the Sex and the Cidiots feed, while every single step of our Girls journey is over at . Thanks for the support and welcome to all our new...

Girls 2.5 One Man’s Trash AKA Hannah Sous Vide
Sex and the Cidiots
In this memorable departure of a Girls episode, it’s only one “girl” — Hannah — as she follows Joshua/Josh (Patrick Wilson) home to admit she’s been using his trash can, then bones him silly for two days, passes out in his fancy shower, and considers a new life for herself. It’s a DIVISIVE episode, and we’re glad to bring it to ALL the Sex and the Cidiots listeners. Alternating Girls eps appear here, while EVERY episode appears on .

Sex and the Cidiots

Girls 1.9 Leave Me Alone AKA Everyone's Wrong
Sex and the Cidiots
This is SO S.A.T.C., says our Shosh, as the gals go to a book release party for an annoying college friend played by Jenny Slate. Hannah’s writing rival is having success which drives her crazy enough so that she takes almost the literal first step towards being a writer, and goes to a reading held by her favorite college teacher (played by Michael Imperioli — the guest stars on this show, A+). Jessa gets herself read by Katherine, who tries unsuccessfully to re-hire her in spite of her pathetic husband, and Shosh signs up for online dating in a scene that had us wanting to see more —...

Girls 1.7 Welcome To Bushwick AKA The Crackcident AKA Pants or No Pants
Sex and the Cidiots
The massive controversy from this episode: was Shosh wearing pants as she ran around Bushwick…on crack?! The girls all head to the biggest warehouse party in Brooklyn, and this party? Has everything: a pack of lesbians, Charlie and Ray’s suddenly successful band, the world’s saddest husband trying to cheat on his wife with Jessa, a glass cigarette filled with crack for Shosh, Elijah kissing a boy, and Marnie’s best selfish meltdown yet after her ex suddenly gets smooched by a tiny Navajo. Also, Hannah is shaken to learn a huge thing about Adam’s life from a lesbian who tries to bite...

Pretty Woman (1990) AKA Big Mistake. Huge.
Sex and the Cidiots
Happy Valentine’s Day, lovers! We decided to do a classic romcom that *one* of us had never seen, and drop it as a romantic, holiday bonus. So here we are, with a movie that doesn’t work on paper, but big time works on the screen: a star-making turn by Julia Roberts who has “it” more than just about anyone has ever had, Richard Gere somehow making us like a 41 year old billionaire, Hector Elizondo being an all-time hotel daddy, Jason Alexander portraying the most punchable man of all time, Laura San Giacomo as a really fun bestie and PATRICK RICHWOOD as a scene stealing elevator man....

Girls 1.5 Hard Being Easy AKA Doin’ It Pigeonstyle
Sex and the Cidiots
In the aftermath of Hannah’s diary revelation, Marnie & Charlie break up…or at least Charlie attempts to. That leads to Marnie going to the apartment of her boyfriend for the very first time, somehow, and doing some bargaining. Hannah takes typically awful advice from Jessa to try to F her boss “for the story,” and fails, before dropping by Adam’s only to watch him go hogwild, solo. Jessa takes an ex back to her place for a romp to make a point, and Shosh accidentally catches her and some Brooklyn goofball goin’ at it pigeonstyle by the fire escape. ALSO: Jon authored a...
info_outlineAlison Leiby is a comedian, writer, and the creator of the acclaimed one woman show “Oh God, A Show About Abortion” — a show Cynthia Nixon went to on opening night! Alison joins us for a timely rewatch of Sex and the City’s (closest thing to an) abortion episode: 4.11 “Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda.” (Recap begins at 19:30 mark)
This is the one where Miranda tells the gang that she’s pregnant — from Steve’s much maligned single nut — and she considers whether or not she should keep it. Samantha and Carrie talk about the abortions they had at different times in their life, and Charlotte selfishly freaks out because of her own infertility struggles. We’re obviously watching this now because of America’s backward slide in terms of women’s reproductive rights but you know what? Today, we have some silly times watching an old Sex and the City with a good friend. Follow Alison @alisonleiby on Twitter & Instagram and go see her great show in NYC or LA: ohgodshow.com for tickets.
