We're thrilled to welcome Eve back to the guest chair...but were we as thrilled to welcome Big Little Lies back into our primetime lives? We talked about Meryl Streep's flawlessly passive-aggressive performance and loved Laura Dern because it's a day ending in Y. After Tara reported on a Kit-Kat-jingle-related Tiny Triumph, Sarah joined her to capsule-review the ATX Festival before we went around the dial with Pose, RuPaul's Drag Race, and Black Mirror. Dan Cassino tasked us with assembling our own personal A-Teams as an Extra Credit, and everyone from Villanelle to Pam Poovey got in on the act. Then we took a tour of Senegal with Françoise's lovely Canon presentation on behalf of Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown. Kristen Bell is a winner, Linda Fairstein is a loser, and we all shared a bowl of alphabet soup in Game Time. Don't get stuck in a hallway marching band: it's an all-new Extra Hot Great.SHOW TOPICSBig Little LiesTiny Triumph: Tara’s Kit-Kat jingle gets a key RTATX Festival ReportPoseRuPaul’s Drag RaceBlack MirrorExtra Credit: Your Own Personal A-TeamThe Canon: Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown S07.E06: SenegalWinner and Loser of the WeekGame Time: ABC TV TriviaSHOW NOTESThe Alternatino premiere on YouTubeThe Best Evidence newsletterATX’s TV Campfire podcastPhoto: HBO / Jennifer ClasenDISCUSSIONTalk about this episode on its dedicated page on ExtraHotGreat.comSUPPORT EHG ON PATREONThe EHG gang have been recording this podcast for almost a decade now. In podcasting terms, that makes us positively Methuselahian. Since the start of EHG, our listeners have asked if we had a tip jar or donation system and we'd look at each other and say surely that is a joke, people don't pay other people to do podcasts. We'd email them back "Ha ha ha, good one, Chet" and go about our business. Now we are told this is a real thing that real nice people do. Value for value? In today's topsy turvy world? It's madness but that good kind of madness, like when you wake up a 3:15am and clean your house. Or something. In all seriousness, we are humbled by your continued prodding to get a Patreon page up for EHG and here it is! Extra Hot Great on Patreon For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
