FOLCs Forever: A Lois & Clark Rewatch Podcast

Grab a plate of your favorite cuisine and join us for Lois & Clark Season 1, Episode 11: Honeymoon In Metropolis!
Lois & Clark are MARRIED? Nah, but they are staying together in the Lexor Hotel honeymoon suite for 3 nights! 
But don't get any ideas about romance, okay? This arrangement is STRICTLY BUSINESS... except for the game playing, the personal conversations, the kissing, the teasing, and that whole thing where Lois sleeps completely nude.
There's also an A plot in there, somewhere, too. Allegedly.
 
Our Special Feature this week is All about IRC -- Our L&C-centric 90s social media platform of choice!

Hold on to all seven of your veils -- it's Lois & Clark Season 1, Episode 10: Pheromone, My Lovely!
When a love-potion-esque perfume causes citizens of Metropolis to lose all inhibitions, things get steamy... and awkward! Lois throws herself at Clark, Jimmy pursues a model, and Perry writes poetry -- then gets punched in the face. It's an episode full of surreal humor and sexy shenanigans, and we're here to dish about ALL of it!

This week we're talking about Lois & Clark Season 1, Episode 7: Smart Kids!
Green slime. Pretend money. Headless droids. Postmodernist angst. Clark playing ping-pong. Lois inventing new curse words. YES, it's Smart Kids! Your brain may be telling you that you dislike this episode, but we are here to say that... um... maybe it's slightly better than you remember? 
Come along as we recap the episode and as we ask (and try to answer) the MANY questions that this episode inspires, such as: "Where did that ping-pong table come from?" "Why does Lois randomly say 'borscht'?" "Why is that fourth Smart Kid even there?" and "Is Dr. Carlton the absolute worst?" (Yes. Yes, he is.)
Our special feature this week is: Lois & Clark FANFIC!

This week we're talking about Lois & Clark Season 1, Episode 6: I've Got A Crush On You!
Toss your high heels in the freezer and get out the ice cream, because this is a good one! (Well, maybe not for Lois's ego.)
Lois and Clark go undercover at the Metro Club to try and figure out who's starting fires in the West River District. Can Clark handle having TWO secret identities? Can Lois keep a straight face while wearing yellow feathers and a chicken headdress? Should putting facial hair on Clark be a punishable offense?
Come for the heat metaphors, stay for the sports metaphors, and don't chicken out on us, because our special feature this week is: Teri Hatcher's Singing Endeavors! Julie also brings us all the scoop on the bizarre plotlines from the original script!
