Beth & Meg &...
Politics, culture, history, crazy family stories - high brow or low, it's all fair game. Hosted by Bethany Jones and Megan Johnson, this is the program where two sisters discuss anything, everything, and nothing in particular until way past their bed time without Dad yelling to "keep it down in there!".

Beth & Meg & a Big Stick
It's the new year and it is time to discuss the tyranny of children's birthday parties, what movies we saw over the holiday break, and why Theodore Roosevelt was right about carrying a big stick. Also, what book we would be sworn into Congress with, our new favorite media figure, and really poorly thought out videos that hit the internet this week. And then we fix immigration. Just kidding.

This week we talk about how we are just like Aaron Sorkin, the worst bridezilla EVER, and the party Meg wants to throw that Bethany will never attend. Also why a couple of nuns need a Whoopie intervention, Meg's beef with Payless Shoe Source, and why we could all use a cheesy Gordita crunch right about now.

Beth & Meg & Reply All
It's been a few weeks but we are back in business, reliving our lovely Thanksgiving celebration, gearing up for the craziness of Christmas, and lamenting the fact that people think we are so cool (snort, snort!). Also, what the state of Utah needs learn from Megan, why we are all speciests, and our offer to the Academy Awards. Oh, and Shane makes an unexpected appearance (tee-tee!)! #learntosayno #restingchurchface #funeralpotatoes #minionoftheantichrist #amusebouche

Today we talk about beloved children's television characters we can't stand, how to lose our vote, and why no one told you life was gonna be this way. Also where we want to spend our eternal slumber, how we flaunt our bling, and our requirements to sail on Titanic 2. Finally, why Nebraska is the best state ever. And, by the way, the election is still not over in Arizona. #danieltiger #breakingnews #friends #flauntmywealth #drzhivago #codegrandma #wheredoyouspreadthem #titanic2 #BillyZane #cremebruleepotatoes

So it's the episode where we finally show how badly we missed the STEM education boat. We reveal the results of our 23andMe results and delve into the dark recesses of our DNA in a way that would make Watson and Crick cry. Also Megan makes a startling discovery about her own chromosomes that will shake you to the core. With laughter. #23andMe

With our long break away, it's been awhile since we've discussed books and movies and we need to remedy this. Before that, though, we talk Serena, the most inappropriate Halloween costume EVER, and why we want to hang with Ryan Reynolds and not Mark Wahlberg. #fifthdimensionofhell #marathonnotasprint #FunkyBunch #checkyourprivelage #WolfHall #HillbillyElegy #GuernseyLiteraryandPotatoPeelSociety #TattooistofAuschwitz

Beth & Meg & Finding Our Happy Place Again
You thought you were rid of us but we are like a bad penny and past indiscretions on Facebook - we always turn up. To get back into the swing of things we talk Supreme Court nominations, the passing of John McCain, and why NPR owes the ninja community a BIG apology. Also, hear the breakdown of what we really want in a man (bon chicka wow wow). Never has spacial awareness and cord wrapping been so sexy... And apologies, Bethany meant Merrick Garland and not Neal Gorsuch. AMATEUR!#botulismisourjam #bravenewworld #Hadleys #Tillamook #thanksObama #kindergartenkills #myprivatehell #throwthevellum

Also the most quotable movies, a delicious food that needs a new name, and how the USA has a bone to pick with UNESCO. #glassify #avengersassemble #mendnets #jamfirst #teamJustin #teamEmmanuel #webroughtfrysauce #dadjeans #dothebustle #takethephysicalchallenge

The Winter Olympics are done and it is time to hash it all out and see if they have inspired us to get on that treadmill gathering dust in the corner (yeah, no). The highs, the lows, the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat, it was all there in South Korea for us to behold. Also, a discussion on school shootings in America.#bigmoney #pyeongchang2018 #USOC #USCurling #leanin

This week we have a few suggestions for the Super Bowl halftime that involves less camouflage and a different JT, bemoan Facebook constantly reminding us of our age, and get hung up on which one of Anne Hathaway's princess role's Bethany is thinking of. We discuss the best songs to sing in the car, the greatest comedic movie of all time, and the passing of one of the greatest comedic television actors of the '90s. Finally we discuss the new love of our lives, the beautiful and magical city of New Orleans. #control #missjacksonifyourenasty #mcconaugheynow #johnmahoney #squarespace #Tishismyspiritanimal #standtightstandstrong#cafebeignet #tujagues #shaya #italianbarrel #courtoftwosisters #restaurantaugust #snugharborjazzbistro #preservationhalljazzband #columbiahouse #Godwasinthatjazzhall #nationalworldwar2museum #Frenchquarterphantoms #oakalleyplantation #whitneyplantation #faulknerhousebooks #neworleans #nola #mardigras

It's 2018, y'all, and we go straight up controversial as we discuss snarky Christmas decor judging, why College Football needs to get its act together, and how Medieval Times is eschewing historical accuracy ("WENCH, BRING ME A FLAGON OF DIET PEPSI!") for girl power. Also, we ask for prayers for a man who may quickly regret his invitation to hang out with us, discuss which HOA might want to tighten up some of its regulations, and realize for how many reasons we could be admitted to an insane asylum... in West Virginia... in the 1860s... #fahrenheitforthewin #Oprah2020 #yougetataxbreakandyougetataxbreak #UCF #slowclap #valentinesdayatmedievaltimes #winchestercathedral #prayersforShane #mahalo #12thman #fireforeffect #dontbeawoman

Beth & Meg & Happy Holidays
Ho ho ho (WHAT'D YOU CALL US?!?!), and Merry, Happy, whatever it is you do or do not celebrate this time of year. We discuss a few things that appear on either Santa's naughty or nice list - things such as surgery-inducing tacos, the ethics of Amazon Prime, and the tyranny of teacher gifts. Also, why Bethany is afraid to open her gift from her daughter, why microphones should have a restraining order against Matt Damon, and why Broadway is causing us to lose sleep. Lastly, when movie franchises break up their leads, when five year olds take the law into their own hands, why anyone chooses to be a confederate in Civil War reenactments, and crazy Christmas music. #chicostacos #amazonprime #knowyourplace #netneutrality #theoffice #netflix #kingkong #bradpitt #loveneverdiesunlessweneedasequel #thegrinch #minihandcuffs #phasersonbuckshot #foodismylovelanguage

Apparently we've ruffled some feathers, but what else is new? This week we prove how cultured we are as we discuss our literary peers and Megan shows off her command of useless languages. We clue you in on the rules of Mormon cussing, why for her safety Bethany should save all the bubble wrap she is getting from Amazon, and what Kiwi(?) motorcycle-riding 80's heartthrob we have spent far too much time imitating. Also, we discover our Dad's spirit animal.

A very Happy THANKSGIVING to all of you! If you are looking for topics to fight over with your crazy relatives whilst picking at a wishbone - look no further! We talk clashes of idiot titans, what first base really means, and imagine what kind of food truck Will Smith would roll up in. Also, unfortunate last names, unfortunate (?) mascot names, and unfortunate costume choices. And we teach you the exact formula for getting out of legal trouble without the need to pay for an attorney. Trust us, it's a gas. #eattrumpsgold #shadowsandcontours #chefjeff #gofightingphoenixes #themichelobofchampagnes #strangerthings2 #feedmeggie #kegelit #pleadthefifth #silentbutviolent #theforceisstrongwiththisone #runfortheborder #squeezethecheese #leatherseats

If you've been missing conversations about medieval wildcats, intercontinental musical theater challenges, and casting changes at "The Phantom of the Opera" you are in luck. We talk efficiency vs. romance, how Michael Flatley should be known as the Lord of the Gridiron, and why 90's flashes in the pan might want to avoid Montreal. #macbeth #calahanautoparts #chapter7 #idliketothanktheacademy #takemetothegoodpart #condorman #thisisunseemly #cubangoddess

We are in full on 'jama day mood, since nothing in the world seems to be able to convince us to put on pants right now. Yes, we talk some of the tough stuff of this week, but then we get onto topics that make us happy to be members of the human race. Hear us talk about the greatest first date story of all time, why the Department of Homeland Security has it's eye on Megan's house, and her channelling of Dr. Ian Malcom in a way even Goldblum can't achieve. We tell the secret to the best halloween ever, how movies change when you get a mortgage, and pop culture that will depress the heck out of you. #cavemarket #LVStrong #rocketmanbooyah #glibbest #NFL #postsecret #firstamendment #willandgrace #number2earlytotell #ladyofthelake #sciencewins #jurassicpark #getoveryourselfbelle #marytoddshecray #kohls

Beth & Meg & Things We Can't Unsee
We know, we know, we've been gone a long time, but we are back and stronger than ever! Yes, we say goodbye to summer and one of us gets to say hello to autumn. We discover why Canadians are just a happier people, why Taylor Swift is not, and why everyone at Wal-mart should be afraid... very afraid. Also, why you should be concerned if an elderly Scotsman asks if you'd like to see his haggis, why we are sick of Kate Middleton, and how to start off your marriage with a RIDICULOUS amount of pressure. Lastly, we discuss how teeth capping makes the multi-million dollar man and dream of the day when the all female version of "Delta Force" becomes a reality. #flintandsteel #sweaterweather #itsadryheat #fatcorner #teammaple #lifegoal #kimandkanyearetherationalones #igottarapaboutit #popgoesmyheart #amazonprimethatmess #everydayimshuffling #ROI #equallyyoked #worksmartnothard #vivelefrance #GBBO #findyourownthingMako #tomcruisesteeth #literally #mermanpop

Also, the indescribable joy of a book order form, why you might want to hire us for your next soiree, and why the upcoming eclipse will be the most patriotic ever. Also, bad marketing stunts, why we won't be moving to San Francisco anytime soon, and the real reason Megan beat breast cancer. #pepperidgefarm #andyserkisneedsanOscar #somethingisrotteninthestateofDenmark #doucheydane #lifetimehallpass #warfortheplanetoftheapes #dunkirk

Also, disappointing cameos, when wedding dances almost kill, and then discuss the classic book and film The Outsiders.
