Let's Go Steal A Podcast

If you haven’t seen Ocean’s 8 yet, turn away now! Here there be spoilers!Seriously, if you don’t want every scene and moment and outfit and glance between characters ruined for you, go see this movie before listening to Cory and I discuss it. You’ll thank me later.What you can expect: fawning over Helena Bonham Carter. Much talk of Cory’s visceral reactions to every woman on screen. Headcanons for characters offscreen relationships. Sandra Bullock eating. Theories on Anne Hathaway’s acting motivation. And so much more. Written by: Gary Ross and Olivia MilchDirected by Gary RossAnd as always, my gratitude goes out to artist Rebecca Mock who inspired this podcast.

The Juror #6 Job (or, as I like to call it The Parker Gets Grounded Job) aired February 10, 2009.It was written by Rebecca Kirsch, directed by Jonathan Frakes, and executive produced by Chris Downey and John Rogers.When one of Parker's aliases gets called for jury duty (yes, Hardison is *that* good), Nate and Sophie decide it will force her to think of others as well as herself. But when she notices something suspicious during the trial, the gang finds itself drawn into a new case against a crooked pharmaceutical company.Lisa Lin and Tara Kennedy are back! Luckily they have some legal background and can help me understand some of the confusing jargon.

Directed by Rod Hardy and co-written by Amy Berg and Chris Downey, The 12 Step Job aired on February 3, 2009. Sorry for the late episode, but you know how it is when a toddler goes though some sleep regression. But never fear, Cory and I made some time to talk about the 12 Step Job which really should have been called The Rehab Job because none of the 12 steps are described or taken. But we do get a medicated Parker, and detoxing Nate, cute moments with Hardison and Eliot, and a hallucinatory Sterling. (I still need to think of a catchy name for our book review portion of the podcast) Our books this week were: The Elemental Trilogy by Sherry Thomas https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17332556-the-burning-skyand The Castle Job by Patrick Weekes https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18318648-the-palace-jobYou can find Cory on twitter and instagram at @helenstwin.
