Marvel's cabbAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (S1)

Charlotte and Laura have reached the first intimidating stop on their journey through the MCU: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. They discuss the adventures of Phil Coulson and his ragtag crew, their concerns about the series and how they changed upon viewing, how the TV series furthers the overall story arc, and more. Charlotte shares her struggle with connecting to the cold and distant Melinda May, while Laura finds her to be a badass. Laura compares the villain, John Garrett to a character from The Office, and Charlotte explains why he's good at being a bad guy. Together they champion the show's science twin duo FitzSimmons, call out repetitive plot devices, muddle through the more mundane MCU goings-on, and share some hopes for the future storylines of the show. Was Agent Phil Coulson a ladies man in his past? Does the show's Law and Order type procedural style help connect the dots between bigger MCU events? And do Charlotte and Laura find any affection for this show? You'll have to listen to find out!

For the Fun & Games segment, the girls find out their Agent Names and play a round of 1, 2, 3, S/He's Yours! Play along with Charlotte and Laura during the episode and share your agent name or your soul mate pick in the comments of this post!

Looking for something to sip on while listening to this episode or watching Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Laura suggests you drink along with agents Melinda May and Grant Ward by having a couple fingers of whiskey. Enjoy it neat like the agents do, or add a rock like Laura does!

From Raddish with Lettuce

Laura and Charlotte are going on another mission with 007! They're covering Sean Connery's second film as the classic spy: From Russia With Love. They discuss Connery's Bond, his disappointing Bond girl, how well the film ages, and more. Laura explains why she thinks Tatiana Romanova is the worst Bond girl yet, and why she thinks the execution of Blofeld as a villain worked. Charlotte struggles with enjoying Bond's dated treatment of women, but appreciates the film's setup of many trademark Bond tropes. Together the girls highlight which gadgets they liked the most, which action scenes were the most thrilling, and which plot points slowed the film down. Does From Russia With Love set up this long franchise's most notable elements? Does the film's old-style pacing affect its storytelling abilities? And is helicopter tag the most James Bond thing to ever happen?

For Fun & Games, Laura and Charlotte decide to mix fandoms by playing a round of Sorting Hat. Is James a Gryffindor or a Slytherin? Comment to let us know what you think? They also take a Brainfall quiz to find out Which Type of Martini they are.
