Rob and Sharon sittin' in a tree, C-A-T-A-S-TRO-PHE. First comes fling, then comes baby, then comes the best marriage on TV... maybe. Join the gals as they contemplate what constitutes true romance, the pros and cons of finding love later in life, and how Chris Noth makes the perfect dirtbag (note: this episode was recorded before the assault alleg…

Kaley and Steff are in an appropriately silly mood (though not in an appropriately articulate mental state... thanks, COVID) as they discuss the classic sketch collaboration of two national treasures, A Bit of Fry & Laurie. Also, Steff argues for the trendiness of a certain sexual activity, and Kaley retracts a 3-year-old statement about wigs.…

Steff and Kaley discuss the seductiveness of book shops (remember those?), the absurdity of employment, and acts of embarrassingly optimistic self-sabotage in this conversation about the delightfully zany sitcom Black Books. (*Note: this is the last of the pre-pandemic episodes, so don't worry; things'll get weird next week.)…

Anglophilia's back with a 5th season! And if the hosts sound a little too carefree and coherent while covering the star-studded showbiz comedy Extras, it's because they recorded it before COVID-19 reached our shores and upended life as we know it. Ahh. Remember January? Good times. Er... neutral times. Well... not-quite-yet-fully-apocalyptic times.…

In this impromptu pandemic special, Stephanie and Kaley work through their anxieties about the harrowing state of the world, occasionally remembering to return to the topic at hand: the now-upsettingly-relevant but eternally enjoyable 2004 "rom-com-zom," Shaun of the Dead. If you're holed up in quarantine, grab a nice cold pint (of hand sanitizer) …

In the first episode of their season devoted to "one-season wonders," Kaley and Stephanie cover the hilarious cheesy-80's-horror-spoof-cum-mockumentary, Garth Marenghi's Darkplace. Strap in for some premenstrual telekinesis, giant randy eyeball monsters, and maggots. Maggots. MAGGOTS.Door Stephanie Callas & Kaley McMahon

People say we're the best podcast hosts. They go, y'know, "Oh, Kaley and Stephanie, you're brilliant, you're so funny, Anglophilia makes us laugh and cry, your season finale about the groundbreaking mockumentary masterpiece The Office was as hilarious and insightful as the show itself." And we go, you know, "C'est la vie." If that's true, excellent…

Do men's lives resemble gay porn when women aren't around? Is Steve Taylor the perfect embodiment of everything that's wrong with the world? Do Stephanie and Kaley still have a soft spot in their hearts for Coupling, the naughty sex farce of their youth, despite its glaring flaws and rampant sexism? Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps...…

After what feels like 3 million years in stasis, Anglophilia's back! In this season opener dedicated to the long-running sci-fi comedy classic Red Dwarf, Kaley and Stephanie are anything but tongue-tied as they discuss the show's sneakily existential bent, the relatability of crushing on cartoon characters, and the most agonizingly difficult Shag-M…

Why are we here? What's life all about? Why did watching Mr. Creosote make Stephanie cry? Are people wearing enough hats?

Why is death funny? Is Connie Booth actually a witch? What's funnier: a sheep or a goat? What is your favorite color?

The chief topic of this episode is Spam. Spam and silly walks. Our TWO chief topics are Spam, silly walks, and the sticky subject of political incorrectness. Three--our three chief topics are Spam, silly walks, and political incorrectness... and the idiocy of censorship. *Amongst* our topics are such diverse elements as... I'll come in again.…

Shocking revelations, cunning plans, and *major spoilers* abound as Steff and Kaley travel through 500 years of history, discover the importance of always watching the credits, and debate the merits of Edmund Blackadder as an unlikely sex symbol (and Lord Flashheart as an even less likely feminist figure). You might want to grab some tissues for th…
