Rhoda and Mary - Ep. 6: A "Mary" Christmas Miracle
It's been a LONG while but we're back with a special holiday edition of Rhoda and Mary! In this special edition we discuss the Christmas episode from season one of The Mary Tyler Moore Show - Christmas and the Hard Luck Kid II. Listen to hear Caitlyn and Heather break down the episode, discuss their own working-over-Christmas experiences, and why no one wants to sing Christmas carols with Ted Baxter.
Rhoda and Mary - Ep. 5: Sports and Sadness
As Heather and Caitlyn discuss Episode 5 of Season 1 of the Mary Tyler Moore Show they narrow the themes down to a few important questions: Like what do you do after the short-lived career of your youth is over? What's the difference between a "career" and a "job"? Why does Mary keep giving strangers her home address? And is "Jerry McGuire" a sports movie? Listen along as they take this seemingly throw-away episode and dissect it's meaning to uncover the hero's journey to Florida that's buried underneath.
Rhoda and Mary - Ep 4: The Better Luck Next Time Club
Caitlyn and Heather dive into episode 4 of The Mary Tyler Moore Show: "Divorce Isn't Everything." It certainly isn't everything in our hosts' analysis either. Listen as they enthuse on the brilliance of Rhoda and Mary's at home workout and break down the theme of lying in this episode, along with the stigmas of being single or divorced in 1970 and today. They also tackle the wacky characters of the Better Luck Next Time Club, the fabulous 70s decor, the logic behind fan clubs, and who from the club they would dare to date!
