We Love Phoebe Waller Todd Bridges

Send us a text


Fleabag may have moved on, but we are still at the bus stop
working through our feelings about the award winning
series.  Also, Jocelyn apparently has very strong feelings
about Todd Bridges and cannot resist the urge to add an -s to
Phoebe’s last name - hence the title of the episode.


INTRO-37:55
Our conversation continues with a discussion about the scenes
that we liked and those we did not like.  As with the first
part of our discussion, our good sis Fleabag inspired us to be
open and vulnerable about our own feelings and experiences. 
In a series as great as “Fleabag,” there are not really scenes
that we did not like in terms of writing, it’s more about scenes
that make us uncomfortable or strike an emotional chord in all
the right ways.  No discussion about “Fleabag” would be
complete without the bus stop and a terrifying trip to the
hairdresser with Claire.


37:56-01:17:03
Speaking of Claire, we continue to chat about our favorite
uptight sister as we move on to discuss our favorite
characters.  We also shared our love for Belinda and the Hot
Priest.  It should come as no surprise that we agree that
Martin is the worst, but he was not the only character we
disliked.  


01:17:04-01:33:49
Next, we explore the relationship between Fleabag, her father,
and cigarettes as we chat about our favorite character
arcs.  We also discuss our connection to Claire’s stoicism
and celebrate her decision to finally enjoy some well deserved
happiness at the end of the series.  


01:33:50-END
The discussion wraps with some fun fox speculation and a preview
of the next episode.
