GAM 467: Pride and Prejudice - A Latter Day Comedy

This week, Cara misses Noah.

Comments

Isn't the elbow squeeze the same as the shoulder rub? To check for magic underwear?

James Pipkin

That could be good. Cthulhu as Darcy and Dracula as Wickham. Holmes replaces one of the Bennett sisters.

Uriah Jackson

Love you guys but you need to actually read P&P. Mr. Darcy was definitely supposed to be handsome!

Marjorie Worthington

I feel like the problem with Collins is they wanted him to come across as slightly creepy but Mormons already have a fucked idea of what’s appropriate when trying to get a partner so they made him so misogynistic and possessive that to anyone who’s not a religious conservative he comes across like the kind of guy who’s about to publish a manifesto online then go to the nearest Hooters with an AR-15

General Contact Unit Problem Child

what i hear is that since pride and Predjudice is public domain i can make a movie based on this work and add Dracula, Sherlock Holmes and Cthulhu

Markus Nävergård

Did they explain why? I would've figured it was just "because I prefer it" since there's not a logical reason (I.e. "graphic" doesn't use a soft "g"). I just looked it up and apparently it's a reference to the "Jif" peanut butter commercials, but that just makes me want to use the hard "g" more, because that corny corpo shit can go fuck itself. If he just said "Because I think it sounds nicer" it probably wouldn't change the way I typically read it, but I would respect it.

Markus D

OMG yes and they just have to fight for who gets to be Noah!

Sham Hunter

I haven't seen it, but I do know that I've seen clips and recall commercials and people referencing it and not a thing of it I've been exposed to has inclined me to want to see it. Glad to know I'm not missing anything.

Spiked Nalgene

I was a hard g person until the creator of the format explained why it’s pronounced with a soft g.

Oboewan

It's a slightly later time period, but I prefer "Maurice" by E.M. Forster. It's still all white people, but it's about a gay guy being like "this class and social expectation stuff is all bullshit, I'm going to live in the country with my working-class boyfriend."

Markus D

No, Johnny Depp doesn't seem to be a rapist, people just get carried away with misinterpreting the Amber Heard stuff...

Markus D

I think it's important to realize that we have those things for dogs and not most other animals because they're the most common animals that humans have for companions.

Markus D

I have a big problem with the soft "g" because to me, that's just the "j" sound. And if something is supposed to have that sound, we should spell it with a "j".

Markus D

I know, every time someone says it, it makes me think "compound" rather than "congregation".

Markus D

It's a lot of pretention, for one thing. This kind of belief that classical music is "good, real music for smart people".

Markus D

I watched it a long time ago now, but I remember thinking it was boring and vaguely uncomfortable. I can't think of a joke from it that really landed with me.

Markus D

I feel like this issue has been so ambivalent in all sorts of leftist communities, that as someone who didn't watch the trial, I don't feel confident on speaking about it because I genuinely have not been able to find a good rundown of just the EVIDENCE, and not opinions on it.

Markus D

I also know that the Murder on the Orient Express movie was boring as fuck, so I assumed the same about this one.

Markus D

I AM NOT ALONE!

Markus Nävergård

It's sad that I can't decide if this movie or "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" was the worst P&P remake.

Uriah Jackson

Not at all. My housemate (at the time) and I both despised it. I walked out halfway through, he stayed just to be able to brag that he endured it.

Uriah Jackson

I'm throwing a fondue party for my parent's 50th anniversary this year in honor of their first date lol

LisaLisa

It's a Mormon Batman adopting all of his sidekicks at the same time.

Matt Eldritch

I liked Matt Smith's performance in the movie version.

Matt Eldritch

IDK, but he did support Roman Polanski and dated an underaged Winona Ryder (she was 17 and he was 26) so it doesn't feel out of the realm of possibility.

Matt Eldritch

I'm surprised that you guys liked Death on the Nile. I figured that due to starring a zionist-storm trooper, anti-vaxxers and sexual predators you would've had it for a monthly secular bonus episode.

Matt Eldritch

As someone who watched the entire trial Depp v. Heard trial, I was uncomfortable with Cara calling Johnny Depp a rapist so casually. The evidence presented showed it was obvious that Heard was lying, going so far as to doctor photos to make it appear as if she was bruised when she was not. Depp seems like a troubled individual, but there is more evidence that he was the victim of DV in that relationship than the abuser. I am a staunch feminist, and part of that fight for equality means we need to support victims of domestic violence whether they men or women. *Edited to say I really like Cara and I don't think she said this maliciously, but it did make me uncomfortable.

Kimi

When I went to college in Utah, most of the mormon girls got the 2 year elementary education degree so they could homeschool their kids after the guys got back from their mission. Really weird stuff.

Toast

am i the only oneint he world that did not like Napoleon Dynamite?

Markus Nävergård

me playing WASP animal(fuck likea beast) for my niece and nephew, which is a thing i done. i play metal for them

Markus Nävergård

Ok so it's not like an orphanage

Off-label Botanist

It always seemed obvious to me that the people who are concerned enough with their kids/pets/plants to put special effort into their care, naturally tend to wind up with good results. The music doesn't matter in itself, but the atittude will matter overall.

Greg Willickers

Yes, Cara, this /is/ the riveting premium content we come for, and we /are/ thrilled, thank you.

Spiked Nalgene

I don't think so? I think it was just the did mad lib and they got confused. But hell if I know, I try not to follow that stuff too closely.

Spiked Nalgene

That would be a funny April fools day episode or something.

Spiked Nalgene

I feel you. All the "Baby Einstein" classical music was pure bullshit.

Julie LaVoice

honestly, what is this belief that classical music will change dog behaviour, make plants grow better and make kids smarter? what is that stupid shit. not like classical music was any better than modern music. Mozart made a whole song named " lick my arse"

Markus Nävergård

the las Vegas marriage thing is so stupid. Just let the horny kids fuck, that wouls solve the problem

Markus Nävergård

Just a local Mormon congregation

Peter H.

Wtf is a Mormon Ward?

Off-label Botanist

I know of at least one series that's Napoleonic dragons, it's just missing the "techno" parts.

Denise Huston

I read it, and it was too much Jane Austen, not enough zombies.

Denise Huston

I mean...I feel like putting a hat on an alligator would be baller AF, but he would definitely not keep it on.

Denise Huston

The Gruffalo and The Gruffalos child, both them books I've read many dozen times. Our little one had one of them read to him every night for at least a year. My wife did not even need the books in the end, she knew them all off by heart.

Michael Champion

Cara is correct by using the soft ‘g’ sound in GIF. Heath needs to accept he’s objectively incorrect and apologize to Cara.

Oboewan

I think the thing with it is that it was progressive *for it’s time* but is still a story about privileged white people in a time of immense exploitation. It’s incredibly overrated

Zach Van Stanley

I realize this might be a Mandela effect reference, but still felt the need to chime in

Zach Van Stanley

No, op got it right. I know the book

Zach Van Stanley

"Fetch" back then was mormon substitute for fuck 😂

Dustin Dugger

yeah, like every second month or something like that

Markus Nävergård

I hate it. It's SO EASY TO NOT SEXUALLY ASSAULT/HARASS PEOPLE. Dudes, stop!

Markus D

STOP TORTURING CARA!

Victor Field

I say gif that way too, Cara. We're right! 😤

Stella

I'm a little surprised when people say this, because I feel like she's on the show as much as her schedule probably allows!

Markus D

100% agreed. Some people find them cute, but they genuinely just make me sad. Same with similarly unfortunate breeds like chowchows and various bulldogs.

Markus D

am i the only oen that find it insane that we make human like things but soley for dogs? like we have dog groomers/hairdressers,tailors, music, art and special food, we do not treat most other animals that well. * looks at alligators*

Markus Nävergård

yeah, so many of these guys turns out to be bad. Also, was Johnny depp a rapist?

Markus Nävergård

Seriously, what's the Patreon goal to get Cara on as a permanent cohost? I'd increase my pledge

Help, I'm trapped in a podcast factory!

That's horrible.

Julie LaVoice

Better than Bridget Jones

Lora Forsyth

I'd like to see a GAM where it is totally guest hosts. Cara Santa Maria, Marsh, and either Tom or Cecil. Will I see it happen?

Rick Wright

The police dog at the chapel wasn't a dobie. It was a German Shepherd, the breed they teased would responded violently to some tracks on the "Wagner for the Vicious" CD. I feel like Eli could have had a lot of fun with what seemed to be the only decent gag in the whole damn movie.

Araya Frellin Sunshine

He has been accused of sexuall assult by a number of women

Markus Nävergård

the fact that some guys would belive that women molt but men do not is baffeling, our anatomy is not that wildly different. if women molted skin,men would also molt skin

Markus Nävergård

You mean the Berenstein Bears.

Detective Popcorn

"Paul Rudyard Kipling" just sailed past, unappreciated in it's time.

Chubby Bunny

How about reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies?

Detective Popcorn

As a parent, there are indeed books I have read dozens of times. The Berenstain’s B book, anyone?

Laura Lusby

Oh, fuck. Now I have to look up what Neil Gaiman did that Eli's alluding to. I knew he and Amanda Palmer aren't together anymore. Yikes.

Julie LaVoice

I know Cara did 9/11 but never reading Pride and Prejudice is truly unforgivable.

Lora Forsyth

I want to see “James Joyce’s Ulysses: A Mormon Movie.”

Patrick Carr

Hail Seitan!

Zach Van Stanley

Y’all should check out Mark of the Beastro in Salt Lake

Zach Van Stanley

Someone somewhere would definitely read a Napoleonic techno-fantasy or whatever. Like if Jules Verne did a Napoleonic sci-fi novel.

Matt

This violation of Pride and Prejudice is evedince of the problem of Evil

Tamylyn

I'm with Eli on the more than 24 times for some books

DataAngel

All these Ed Kemper references are even creeper when you know what he did to his mom('s head).

Rachel Manente

Cara is right. Pugs are sad creatures. their existence is a testament to mans cruelty. We made them into what they are. they are poor inbred animals with severe deformities that we cultivate because we find them cute. It is horrible honestly and i will argue agaisnt Eli untill we both die on this point. Seriously, pet breeding is horrible

Markus Nävergård

The “monthly peel” videos are great! What a great way to show how *most* cis men completely don’t understand women’s anatomy

Zach Van Stanley

Err, Cara….It’s Cif. Duh. 😜

Abigail Hurley

Colin Firth isn't hot? Your most controversial (and wrong) take Eli!

Kristin

She is definitely a masochist.

Jay Voigt

Cara!!! ❤️ I enjoy her takes on GAM so much!

Jay Voigt

Cara I've read books dozens of times. I had a tedious job and limited audio book access in the early-mid-aughts

Denise Huston

Team Cara, the actor playing Darcy is just British, not hot.

Diana

I went on a trek it sucked had to dress up in a bonnet and pretend to me a mom, sing hymns all day in the heat, do the “women’s pull,” and then they gave us a rooster and didn’t tell us we would be slaughtering it and eating it at the end—great time 😑

KayJayO

I wonder if the eyelash needle separating trick thingy is a weird Mormon/Utah thing, because in high school I had dance before school and saw girls doing that like every day when they put their makeup on always freaked me out—like I saw a girl use a thumb tack once

KayJayO

Yay, Cara’s back! But will she return after this episode? Now taking bets.

Taru Tikkanen

I must've blocked this movie out when it came out. I really wish the youth parties I went to were as awesome looking as they looked in the beginning of the movie.

Diana Sievert-Wood

This movie needs to fuck itself so fucking hard. I am mad at in the name of literature. My friends and I watched this garbage. It's white on white heterosexual propaganda is what it is
