Episode 5.1 - Step Up (4) Revolution

With the Miami heat seeping through Peter Gallagher’s eyebrows, Erica and Emily slip into some baggy pants and high top sneakers for the fourth installment of the ‘80s dance movie craze that has been reborn as Step Up. This time, it’s about a REVOLUTION. And white people romance. But let’s face it: we came here for Moose, and Moose is what we’ve got. This is our first episode with our new non-Glee format, so we hope the joy of dance overrides the mess of Ryan Murphy’s head. Tell us what you think on our Facebook group and when in doubt, just do the robot.

Episode 4.22 - Highs, Lows & Lower Lows

As promised, Erica and Emily return to finish up Season 4 with a recap of All Or Nothing, plus a rundown of their top and bottom performances of the year. This is indeed The Announcement Episode, so listen closely for details about what you can expect starting in the fall. We hope you’ll hitch your tap shoes to the New Directions of the podcast. Be sure to share your suggestions and discussions over at our Facebook page or email gleekast@gmail.com. We also hope you never again have to witness the atrocities of the show’s sole Asian singing Gangham Style. That is all.

Episdoe 4.21 - Wonder-Cats

It only took us 2.5 months, but Erica and Emily finally reunite to discuss the penultimate episode of Season 4, Wonder Dash Full, as well as the troubles of live-watching Pretty Little Liars, the Kate Issue of Angel, and the apparent joy of My Cat From Hell. We also take some time to discuss the tragedy of Cory Montheith and how Glee might move forward. And then Emily’s cats start to play and that’s that. We’ll be back next week to finish up Season 4 with our top and bottom song lists, plus our big announcement of GleeKast’s future (hint: it’s not GleeCats. OR IS IT?). Join the discussion at our Facebook group and keep those socks light blue.

Episode 4.20 - So Much Arc it Became A Circle

Well, the guns are concealed but the issues keep coming. This week, Erica and Emily attempt to unravel the oddness of Lights Out, from its Broadway tie-ins to its sexual abuse AND ballet PSAs. Also, Pretty Little Liars is amazing and you all should try it out. Join the discussion on our Facebook page or email us your thoughts at gleekast@gmail.com. But don’t, because we should all turn off our electronic devices or something. Mixed messages galore!

Episode 4.19 - Steampunk Tina, Black Sue & Syphilis

If your “Sweet Dreams” happened to include syphilis and Smash, then welcome!, for you’ve come to the right place. Between discussing the surprisingly impressive Broadway chops of Constantine Maroulis and the shockingly creepy trend of pointed fingernails, Erica and Emily do what they can with the latest episode of Glee. Thoughts? Feelings? Candy? Send them all to gleekast@gmail.com or pop into our Facebook group to discuss. Now iron up yourself a griled cheese sandwich and join the fun.

Episode 4.18 - They Named This Episode Shooting Star

Between anger and bafflement lies something called The Twilight Zone, aka this week's episode of GleeKast and Erica and Emily struggle to find the tubbington at the end of the occasionally offensive tunnel. Yes, this is the pseudo-school shooting episode of Glee, and, well, feelings are complicated. We're aided by some feedback, the joys of RuPaul's Drag Race (watch it!) and the ultimate capper in recasting Game of Thrones with McKinley High's Student Body. Teri Shuester as Cersai Lannister? Really, why not (especially if it means not discussing the fact that BECKY JACKSON BROUGHT A GUN TO SCHOOL. Shiver. Discuss it all on our Facebook page or email us at gleekast@gmail.com. Until next we meet or catfish, the ladies of GleeKast

Episode 4.17 - Shut Up, Tina

With just six episodes left of its experimental cross-country season, Glee tiptoes into some definition of guilty pleasures, giving Erica and Emily ample opportunity to point out what are actually not guilty pleasures, although Erica crushing on Sam in armbands does indeed qualify. They're aided and abetted by some fine listener feedback, even if Emily apparently forgot how to read or speak. We'll be back in a few weeks with Glee's remaining episodes, but expect the last breaths of Smash talk to happen over at our Facebook page. Long live Jinkx Monsoon and a valar morghulis to all!
