I want to thank the New York Public Library, newspapers.com, Mary Ellen Rogan, Kyle Henke and the discount pop filter I bought for my microphone.

This episode would have not been possible without Kaleigh, Ruby, and Megan. All of whom gave their insight and time to this archival project. Their contributions gave this episode its color and direction. And for that, I am forever grateful.

A chaotic show about Anne Baxter, movie villains, and personal nemeses. In this very normal episode, the following questions are asked: is The Sandlot a truly grotesque and despicable movie? Has Austin Butler ever tried a California burrito? What happened to the time capsule Anne Baxter buried? Was everyone wrong about Madame Web? Did I really edit out the name of my crush? All of this and much more!

Voices that can be heard in this episode:
Jenn Champion, Lisa Prank, Mary Kobayashi, Kaleigh Wiseley, Eric Baudour, Caroline Symons, Lana Schwartz, Courtney LeSueur, Isabel Nixon Klein, Kate Chip, Masha Levin, Bram Draper, Ruby Mullen, Jack Gregson, and Caroline Calloway
