EPISODE 75: Give Em The Ol Razzle Dazzle

Our British trash correspondent, Phoebe Roy (host of 10K Posts Pod and Masters of Our Domain), comes on to talk about Razzle Magazine, the British softcore magazine published by Paul Raymond. Razzle focuses on submissions from reader's wives and promises spreads like "Sing for Your Slapper: Jodies got a right set of lungs on her!" or "Candy, I’m ever so Randy!" Amber bought a used copy of Razzle off the internet and reads pieces of it to a very upset Rax, while Phoebe tries to translate.

UNLOCKED BONUS 85: FBoy, F Hi

In this special bonus episode, now UNLOCKED, Amber talks to Matt Christman (host of Chapo Trap House) about the newest dating reality show FBoy Island. The show that keeps trying and failing to prove wrong that old adage "nice guys finish last." Does it fail because women really prefer fboys or does the particular type of woman who would go on a reality dating show called “FBoy Island” prefer fboys? Also, is Matt an fboy or nice guy? Listen to find out!

EPISODE 73: Agelyne The Billboard Queen

Amber and Rax talk about THE blonde bombshell, hollywood icon ANGELYNE. She is back in the spotlight, where she belongs, because of the new miniseries about her life, which she refuses to watch. The girls talk about the article the series is based on, the very fucked up article by Gary Baum that doxxed her. They also talk about what Angelyne was famous for, how you could be famous and private in the 80s, and what they see in the pink rorschach test. Lastly they have a very long ga ga ga ga griiiiiiiipe zone!!!

Join Rax and Amber on a deep dive into America's first ever singles bar (?!).   Thanks to Nicola Twilley at Edible Geography for her interview with Alan Stillman, from which we got most of our quotes!

Episode 71: Madonna

Rax and Amber are joined by Phoebe Roy (host of 10K Posts Pod and Masters of Our Domain) to talk about The Queen of Pop and Reinvention, the one, the many, Madonna. We talk about how, even though Madonna might not be the best singer or dancer, she is pure charisma. Also, she is the best singer to dance with female family members to. Lastly, we hear Phoebe's brilliant take on celebrities and sort of unintentionally end on a ga ga ga ga gripe zooooone!

Episode 70: Jerry Springer

JERRY! JERRY! JERRY! JERRY! Amber and Rax talk about THE tv show we all watched when we were faking being sick, Jerry Springer, the first place we saw pixelated boobs in all their glory. Did you know Jerry hosted a radio show in college, was a partner in a law firm, the mayor of Cincinnati and a news anchor before the show? As an anchor his tagline was "Take care of yourself, and each other." What turned this good boy lawyer into the host of the most salacious talk show of the 90s and early aughts? "Check" out this episode to find out!

EPISODE 69: Bimbo Supremacy

Bimbos: vanguard of socialist feminism, or retrograde scourge? We're as sick of the conversation as you are, but when some girlboss wrote a gross op-ed about bimbos, even we learned to read so we could scream about it (shrilly). I can't believe it worked out so that episode 69 was the bimbo one???

You might not recognize the name but you have seen his paintings hanging in AirBnb's or at your friend's grandma's house, or on a hallmark card. He is known as "The Painter of Light" because he called himself that and trademarked it. Why was this kitsch painter so hated by the art world? Why was he so loved by the masses? What did he have against Winnie the Pooh? All that and more in this free ep! For more episodes join our patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lowcultureboil
