Pitney & Amelia's Bitchen Boutique

Don’t forget October is ALL THE HORROR month, and our next episode is a special supersized discussion with our friend Dr. Leks Drakos about trans characters in horror. Tell your friends!   This week we kick it off with an all new Hatin’ on Satan, where we make fun of a woman who thinks wearing face masks and standing six feet apart to control the spread of COVID-19 is Satanic! Link to the full YouTube video! And then WAY too many stories related to urine. We apologize for getting a little icky. But they’re funny stories, we promise!   And in the world of woo, Amelia teaches us about Starseeds.   Promos: Paranormal Burrito  and 2 Skeptical Chaps (Want to swap show promos?

First a bit of catching up, talking about dogs, how insane the weather is, and how you used to be able to afford to live in Austin when you couldn’t pay your bills on time.   Then a quick “woo” lesson in urine therapy. Yup, urine and the people who swear by drinking it.   Pitney saw a couple movies, Resolution and The Endless, and they haunted him so much he had to tell Amelia about them.   Then suddenly we’re talking about the Shakers and Pitney starts singing. You know, like a normal episode.   Promo: Slay Queens Podcast   (Want to swap show promos? Email us!)   We love you for listening! Please take a moment to rate and review us, and earn a STICKER!

First off, we are SO SORRY about the weird sound issues in this one. It's been insanely hot in California and Pitney's mom's house had NO AC so there was a fan on full blast and we didn't realize the sound was picked up until it was too late!   Beware when Facebook ads suddenly offer you everything you’ve ever wanted, like hot tattooed guys in linen pants. Online clothes shopping can be a nightmare, especially when the stuff comes from some company in China you’ve never heard of. Caveat emptor! Subdivision life has gotten even weirder in the age of covid. (Have you seen birthday parades yet?) Not that it wasn’t gross before. The suburbs are full of trash. And this week in woo, the QAnon freaks have thoughts on Linkin Park, and one of them let Pitney know all about it. And while I’ve got your attention, Invasion of the Remake just celebrated their fifth anniversary! Check out their promo later in this episode, and, as always, links to promoted shows are the show notes! Promos: 2 Skeptical Chaps and Invasion

This week we're talking tarot! Learn how tarot can be a useful tool, even for non-believers like Amelia. Learn about the structure of the tarot deck (major and minor arcana, suits, court cards), and how card meanings work based on their position and the intuition of the reader. Also, we discuss weird public perceptions of what tarot is about, and how to choose a deck that will work for you. And, as always, we laugh a lot along the way. No year of woo segment this week, because the whole episode is borderline woo! Promo: Brook Reading Podcast (Want to swap show promos? Email us!) We love you for listening!

This week, Pitney and Amelia talk about exciting careers we could have had if only we’d made more of an effort. Or any effort at all, in Amelia’s case. Then some talk about learning to type sends us on a tangent about a favorite KISS album, which reminds Pitney how he and Tricia Von Liechtenstein met. And this week in woo, Amelia discovers “flower essences.” You MUST watch the video that inspired this segment! Promos: 2 Skeptical Chaps  and 2 Girls on a Bench (Want to swap show promos? Email us!)

After a quick bit of catching up, Pitney and Amelia talk about Hamilton hot takes and how it’s not necessary to announce to the world that you don’t like a thing. All fandoms have this problem, but jeez people, just because someone likes a thing you don’t like doesn’t mean that person is WRONG. What can make or break a cast album. Memories of cute drag queens from back in the day. Has Amelia ever seen Firefly? The answer kicks off a discussion about stuff we don’t watch, and reasons why Johnny Depp is gross and stupid. And this week in woo, 5G is gonna kill us all. Apparently. And Pitney cooks up a scheme to get rich off of these woo people. And if you want to understand the name of this episode, you need to listen to the end. (And, as always, wait for the Marvel-style bonus scene after the credits!)

Mmmmmm leftovers! This week we dug to the back of the freezer to pull out a few things that didn’t quite fit into other recent shows. Like just how much Skyrim Pitney REALLY plays. Amelia reading an excerpt from Jenna Jameson’s memoir to see if Pitney can guess which celebrity about whom she was spilling some rather interesting sexual tea. Then a bit of cattiness about some Rush superfans. And finally, Pitney takes us on a woo shopping trip through Target. Bon appetit! Promos: 2 Skeptical Chaps and Thanks For Coming!

Happy Pride, everyone! This week we're teaching the kids about the fight for LGBTQ rights from the 60s through today, and how important protests have always been to this country. Stonewall, the White Night riots, ACT UP, all the way through today, when existing rights are being stripped; Pride has never been just a parade. And we owe the BLM movement our participation, because none of us are free until we all are.  And JK Rowling? Like we weren't gonna talk about THAT. (Oh, you think we're suddenly political? Shut up and learn something.) And this week in woo, Pitney does a three-card tarot reading to help us all focus our energy during this tense time. Promo: FriGay the 13th (Want to swap show promos?

HERE, QUEER, AND IN YOUR EAR -- NEW PRIDE GOODIES IN OUR ZAZZLE SHOP!PRIDE  PROCEEDS GO TO THE ACLU! Amelia finally got to have her rescheduled hysterectomy! Hear all about the COVID precautions and protocols, cool tiny robots, and what it's like to find out you've been walking around with a freakishly gigantic uterus all your life. Somehow, while surfing the internet, an article about Wayne Newton selling his estate led Pitney to a wholly remarkable story about a wannabe porn star whose "sex in public" videos may have resulted in a gas station closing forever.

Our regular episode will come a little late this week. For right now, this is PODCAST BLACKOUT. We may not be able to do a lot, but we can do this. Here are a couple quick videos to get you thinking, and some good stuff to read. Hopefully after this, you’ll be ready to do some googling! Are you racist? ‘No’ isn’t a good enough answer. Inside the Mind of White America Showing Up for Racial Justice  Let’s Talk About Whiteness – Eula Biss, On Being with Krista Tippett Citizenship and Social Justice  

This week's episode has a healthy dose of the cattiness that we are known for! Explore the stinky bowels of Twitter as Amelia recounts her adventures with a couple of 20-something know it alls. Pitney and the Fabulous Steve are at it again, making fun of people, the President and reminiscing about how shopping malls used to be.

First of all, you need to know that Pitney’s mother’s house has no air conditioning, so he often records with the window open. Hence the occasionally really loud wind chimes. Reality is, like, so real. This week we are all about sharing our genius with you! Get ready to learn the proper way to use a plunger, the best way to clear a drain, the most creative ways to decorate your home on the cheap, and the number one thing you should be buying by the pound if you like being clean. And this week in woo, you’ve heard about people who talk to the dead, right? What about a woman who interviews famous dead people? Pitney is gonna turn you on to a YouTube channel you’re going to LOVE. Oh, and hey, it’s worth mentioning that this episode would normally be when we talk about all the fun we had at Texas Frightmare Weekend, but, like everything else this year, that event got rescheduled. So be sure to look for that episode in September! Promos: FriGay the 13th and 2 Skeptical Chaps (Want to swap show promos? Email us!)

We swear we aren’t TRYING to do a bunch of shows about the coronavirus, but we talk about our lives, so there it is. We touch a bit on quarantine life and being “essential.” We wonder how long it might take to get back to normal, and what normal even is any more. We get philosophical about interconnectedness and wonder if the earth is knocking us down and resetting herself a little bit. Meanwhile, Tricia Von Liechtenstein hates technology. Are you surprised? And we have a bit of a woo double shot this week! First we talk about the otherkin, and then we hear about a friend of Pitney’s who thinks COVID19 is the work of the illuminati!

Break from the real world for an hour this week and learn all about Amelia’s hair dyeing adventures! Pitney also reminisces about having hair and being a truly awful, yet chronic, hair dyer. Dogs are funny critters with some very strange poop habits, and we sure do know about that. Travel with Pitney to Pantheacon, the wonderful and fabulous annual Pagan convention in the SF Bay area and learn all about people who just can never be happy no matter how good a thing is. PC righteousness or just being self-important Negative Nancys? You decide! The Fabulous Steve joins us for this week’s woo to share about his awakening intuition. One disclaimer: Pitney wrongly states that the Radical Faeiries were founded in the 60s. It was actually the late 70s. (That will all make sense in time!)

(Did you download the show on day one? you might have gotten only half of it. Please download again!)   What a crazy week it’s been out there in the real world! But you’re getting a whole 'nuther kind of crazy on this episode. Pitney quit his job, Amelia was all excited about her upcoming trip to London, and Pitney suddenly has issues with the British but loves suicide cults for some reason. And then it’s about bathing. How clean is clean, especially when a filthy person claims they’ve washed? And this week in woo, the CLEDON. What the hell is it? Pitney explains.

Welcome to episode 100 of the Bitchen Boutique! We can hardly believe it ourselves. This week, a couple of whiny twins who want us to believe they don't know which twin they are. Amelia isn't buying it. And we break down a list of reasons why some guy claims he "left the New Age." And in the Year of Woo, we talk about Amanda Chantal Bacon, the utterly woowoo founder of Moon Juice. Be sure to check out Jarrett Sleeper's awesome ACB video!

Emotional abuse. How to spot it and how to deal with it. Setting boundaries to protect yourself. Amelia has had a rough time in recent months, and she's telling you how she put a stop to being used and abused. She also talks about metta, the Buddhist practice of loving kindness and compassion, and how it's kept her from being consumed with anger through all of this! And in the middle of it all, Pitney gives a Valentine's Day message of self-love. It ain't all hearts and flowers. Promo: 2 Skeptical Chaps  and Dis Beer and Distress (Want to swap show promos?

We apologize for the sound mix in this episode. We’re on a new learning curve. Bear with us. This week, we’re talking Netflix’s Dracula and a story about Lestat and Louis that only Pitney could tell. Then a review of The Witcher and whether or not Henry Cavill is hot. The answer might surprise you! Pitney gets hit on by a human toilet. And Amelia has a bad case of the sniffles. Plus, a new page in Pitney’s diary, and in the Year of Woo, he gives us an oracle card reading for the new year! Promo: 2 Skeptical Chaps (Want to swap show promos? Email us!)
