We spend a lot of time here talking about the television that we're normal about, but there's another source of media that makes us a little crazy-music! In this bonus episode, we guess at what each other's Spotify Wrapped for the year looked like and psychoanalyze each other based on the artist's and songs that landed in our top 5. We've had so much fun this year sharing all our thoughts and big feelings on our favorite shows and we're so appreciative to you for listening!

Please enjoy this special episode of the pod where we review the film of the summer, Greta Gerwig's Barbie! We also chat briefly about Oppenheimer and the Barbenheimer craze. Kaitlin can't get the "I'm Just Ken" song out of her head. Emberlin cries. Greta Gerwig herself walks into our studio and drags us by our pink go-go boots out into the street to die like roadkill (hot roadkill). We're going to have fun together for the next 57 minutes! This is by no means a spoiler-free podcast! So if you haven't seen Barbie and don't want anything spoiled, go finish it and then come back here when you're done! You won't regret it. Or maybe you will. We don't know what you like. References: ⁠Support the WGA and SAG-AFTRA!

This Made Sense Dramaturgically | Succession Part 1

6/29/2023
PRODUCTION NOTE: Our name has changed but our levels of delusion and derangement have not! Lit By Moonlight is now Normal About It - where we're anything but! Yeah, this one was a long time coming. It's been a month since the series finale of [redacted] Max's Succession aired and we've finally processed it enough to talk about all that happened throughout its four seasons on the podcast! In fact, we had so much to say that this needed to be split up into two episodes. This is by no means a spoiler free podcast! So if you haven't seen/finished Succession and don't want anything spoiled, go finish it and then come back here when you're done! You won't regret it. Or maybe you will. We don't know what you like (but really who watches Succession and doesn't like it??) In Part One of our Succession break down, we discuss how we got into the show, the pathetic rich people that quickly became our baby girls and failwives, praise the writing team, and discuss which scenes had our jaws on the floor with how shocking they were!
