Red All Over: An Alias Grace Podcast

Cue up your "Whit's Greatest Hits" mixtape and get ready for the Transformers/Handmaid's Tale crossover you didn't know you wanted. Kelly doesn't know her own age and Molly's too jaded to be shocked, but like stalwart Marthas, they're really good at multitasking in this recap of S2E3. They've got some notes on the soundtrack (more Dido, Britney Spears and Amanda Palmer) and some guest star suggestions (Adam Scott, Margo Martindale and Tituss Burgess). This episode has it all--echoes of Alias Grace, Atwood-inspired dialogue, populism, gloveless fingers, binders full of women and the return of dumb, ordinary June. As always, we're here for you between episodes on Facebook. If you want to keep us going strong, drop us a dollar or two on Venmo and leave a nice review on Apple Podcasts.

We're at def con YIKES in this recap of The Handmaid's Tale S3E2 and even Molly's Martha face blindness can't put a damper on the joy of finally getting FACE BUTTER (kinda) and other treats straight from Margaret Atwood's novel. She and Kelly raise a glass of Serena Joy's Skinny Chardonnay as they call Jesus a couch surfer, muse on the mysteries of Mrs. Bertha Rochester Lawrence, celebrate the return of Sad!Luke (and boyfriend of the podcast OT Fagbenle), complain that there aren't any fat handmaids, hope for a fun hot tub night with Chris Meloni and Elizabeth Reaser, confront their old nemesis "inconsistent world-building," and remind everyone to always pay their bus fare.Can't get enough Red All Over?

Kelly & Molly discuss their current birth control methods in an effort to avoid the actual content of the episode, their final explainer episode about the real-life inspiration behind The Handmaid's Tale book, film and Hulu adaptation. They cover Bigfoot documentaries, numbers as a tool of the patriarchy, real-ass citations, looking out for sex workers, more tepid book recommendations, Gone with the Wind apologia, consequences for war criminals in Gilead and how to mispronounce a lot of Russian words.

Kelly & Molly prepare for what's sure to be an uplifting Season 3 of The Handmaid's Tale on Hulu with their fourth installment of Gal's Guide to Gilead. This time, they dig into the real-life inspirations for the novel and tv show while making an unfortunate number of Smash Mouth references, dissing the the tourism of the macabre, bemoaning the undisputed assumption that women are property, referencing kangaroo courts, learning about contemporary labor camps, and put Judeo-Christian bias on blast . If you're enjoying this series, pretty please throw us some dollars on Venmo, drop a note on Facebook or leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

Kelly & Molly handle the flotsam and jetsam of The Handmaid's Tale in this grab bag episode.

Kelly & Molly, cite their sources--thoroughly--from the comfort of a spacious new couch! In their first explainer episode, they put the Handmaid in The Handmaid's Tale with info from the original novel, the Hulu adaptation, and the sardonic Margaret Atwood's own words.

Kelly & Molly get in a few last audible high fives, self-care horns, and Johnny Gunman jokes in their supersized recap of The Handmaid's Tale S2E13. They keep things relatively civil while discussing the finale in all its glory: searching for Gilead's version of McCall's, ascribing meaning to flowers, praising Elisabeth Moss' #1 line reading in the entire show, giggling at the young poop, slapping peepers on some excellent cinematography, establishing canon tequila drinkers, learning about digetic music cues, parsing the Commander's map, and celebrating the triumphant return of Grinch Offred.

They tell what the deal is about maternity giraffes, gym symbolism, hope chests, breast milk negotiations, putting a bell on Fred Waterford, Cancer season v. Scorpio season, their ideal Shannon shoutout from the Hulu show, beersplaining, Alexis Bledel's busted face, Colonies exit interviews, and how the second part of ride or die is "death."

Kelly & Molly bite into the juicy tomato that is The Handmaid's Tale S2E11 (which is also an unexpected Holly Hunter documentary). They suggest that the writers' room leave the Margaret Atwood impressions and take the cannoli, dish about sperm, remind the Redheads that they are not doctors, raise money for big teacher sweaters, make a Ferris Bueller connection, beg Hulu to mount an Emmy campaign for Yvonne Strahovski, talk about the very exclusive Bruces-Only Club, praise Elisabeth Moss' face acting once again, clock weird man compliments, talk about June's pregnant identity, diss pretentious tramp stamps, and request river-birth videos.

Kelly & Molly renew the torture porn debate in their recap of The Handmaid’s Tale S2E10, which ranks pretty low on the fruit cup scale. They also get into it about poison pussies, whether Jesus likes Sex and the City, nylons, womansplaining sports, the Commander’s false chivalry, Handmaid gerrymandering, anger potting, and Eden’s cootie catcher.

Kelly & Molly use their extremely limited French vocabularies to praise The Handmaid's Tale S2E9, a stunning return to form for the Hulu series. Whitford Watch and Fallgate/Jumpgate continue as they discover the #1 reason men should watch The Handmaid's Tale, applaud Dorothy Fortenberry's excellent writing, support Max Minghella at Nick's Battle of the Bands show, diss the Waterford's alternative lifestyle, ponder the effects of the Gilead Diet, visit Toronto's blue light district, break down the Flora/Fauna/Meriwether dynamic in Disney's Sleeping Beauty, and there's lots of pandering to Ruffahoes and hometown fans.

It's difficult like 3 PM on a Monday afternoon as Kelly & Molly recap one of the season's weaker episodes. They cast Nick as a member of the Jets from West Side Story, declare St. Paul to be trash, critique Serena and June's coworking space, diss gluten-free Commanders, disagree about the symbolism of the red pen, debate the plural of "clitoris," marvel at the West Elm hospitals of the future, speculate about Rita's profesion, pitch a CE Seed series for Eden, and decide that a little Janine goes a long way.

Kelly and Molly are as disappointed by S2E7 of The Handmaid's Tale as they were by Meghan Markle's wedding dress. There are plenty of bright spots in the episode as they sound off on pansexual Lando Calrissian, Molly's Stromboli Bruce Miller impression, bringing back sexy Joseph Fiennes, the dystopian level of cozy in Gilead, infinite chances for naughty Handmaids, celebrity murderers, and Samira Wiley's Moira unlocking her MySpace account.
