Podcasts are like onions…they’ve got layers.

In this patron-exclusive bonus episode, Emily takes a look back at Shrek, the charming ogre who entertained her young son. Though the movie is still laugh-out-loud funny at times, those guffaws come with unfortunate sides of fat-phobia, misogyny, and bio-essential transphobia that is truly ugly (unlike Fiona the ogress who is merely green). More than two decades after its initial release, the Disney diss track that launched a franchise is responsible for some of the hilarious, the recognizable, and the shoddily-built furniture in our minds.

Once upon a time, two sisters gave a whole new perspective on a beloved, twisted fairytale film. But only for patrons. Really, really.
(Psst! You can be a patron, too! It's easy.)

We are Tracie Guy-Decker and Emily Guy Birken, known to our family as the Guy Girls.

We have super-serious day jobs. For the bona fides, visit our individual websites: tracieguydecker.com and emilyguybirken.com

We're hella smart and completely unashamed of our overthinking prowess. We love movies and tv, science fiction, comedy, and murder mysteries, good storytelling with lots of dramatic irony, and analyzing pop culture for gender dynamics, psychology, sociology, and whatever else we find.
