Still Buffering: "[scrubs]"
6/4/2023
Things have been pretty hectic over here in the still buff fam but we're finally back on schedule with a look back at one of Syd's all-time favorite shows, Scrubs! Also, a shockingly in depth discussion of actual, real, physical scrubs, for some reason.

Still Buffering: "Scream 6" (2023)
5/21/2023
If there's one thing in life that's certain, it's that you can always count on a new Scream movie being released at any given time, and it's always going to feel just as familiar and meta as the one before. This time in Scream/Stab world, it's a franchise, so no rules!

Still Buffering: Letters to Cleo
5/8/2023
Syd always has some questionable pics for her summer playlist, but Tey is helping her out this week by providing us with some great 90s/2000s hits from Letters to Cleo that actually ARE suitable for a summer playlist.

Still Buffering: "Singled Out"
4/30/2023
Did you ever appear on the 90s dating show, Singled Out? Did you actually fall in love? Were those dates even real? We need to know everything, because this show leaves SO many questions to be answered for the modern viewer.

Still Buffering: "New Girl"
4/23/2023
We thought it was the Millennial/Gen Z equivalent of Friends, but the more we think about it this show is WAY better. It's the show that brought us bird shirts and True American, it's New Girl!

Still Buffering: "Little Miss Sunshine" (2006)
4/14/2023
It's a classic tragic-comedy (which we didn't know was a thing until just now) that we all know and love, especially since it reminds us so much of a little McElroy we all love. Come talk about beauty pageants and metaphors with us!
(TW: this movie has themes of suicide and death, which we discuss)

Still Buffering: "Full House"
4/9/2023
The siblings think they've finally cracked the reason why Sydnee always had such a love for Full House...and it's because her secret life goal is to recreate it with her entire family. Also why did Danny Tanner hate Kimmy Gibler SO much??

4/2/2023
HAPPY END OF MAXFUNDRIVE! We love and appreciate all of you so much, and to show our love and appreciation we've brought one more guest on to the show this week and are talking about one of our shared favorite shows ever: Bluey! And don't worry, Cooper has plenty of thoughts about it.

HAPPY MAXFUN DRIVE! It seems as if a trading of the youngest member of the podcast has taken place this week, as Rileigh has been replaced with Charlie! Who, let's be honest, is basically just Rileigh if she were still 8. Charlie made us all watch one of her favorite YouTubers this week and...let's just say it's a good thing we switched the direction of our show when we did.

Still Buffering: "Perfect Match" (2023)
3/19/2023
It's here, we've found the worst dating show/reality show of all time: Perfect Match. It's absolutely jam packed full of our favorite Netflix stars(I guess?) and stacked to the brim with bad editing and Nick Lacheys. Come join us!

Still Buffering: Me First and the Gimme Gimmes
3/12/2023
An all punk cover band that does covers of musical theatre songs?? How have we never talked about this before?? It's quite literally all of our most important musical interests combined into one cohesive art form.

Still Buffering: "That Thing You Do!" (1996)
3/3/2023
It's truly astonishing that it's taken us 3 years of talking about media that made us to finally have Sydnee bring up That Thing You Do, but here we are at last. It's basically the Tom Hanks of films, if Tom Hanks himself starred in a Tom Hanks directed movie that was a film embodiment of Tom Hanks. If that makes sense.

2/26/2023
Rilo's brought us some more hip new Gen Z tunes but the only thing we seem to be able to talk about is how the heck do we say McAlpine and have we all been saying McElroy wrong this whole time???

2/12/2023
There have been many Batmans (Batmen, Batmi??) but to Teylor, there's one true Batman and one true Joker iteration that they love most, and it's this one, so let's talk about it!

Still Buffering: King's Island
2/5/2023
Okay yes it's not technically media BUT it at one time was full of pop culture references that were important to all of us, and also blue ice cream, it's King's Island!

Still Buffering: Miley Cyrus
1/29/2023
Well, it took us three whole tries to get this episode finished and out to you all, but it's worth it to get to talk about Miley and all her eras for an hour. And also to expose all the lies Rileigh's family told her as a child about their "celebrity encounters."

It's always special when we can take a week to watch something or listen to something that was exceptionally meaningful to one of our siblings, and that was definitely what we got to do this week, so come join in on some of the special moments shared during this show about a very special band.

Still Buffering: "The Sandlot" (1993)
1/16/2023
Sydnee had an interesting choice of movie for her first ever date (and our dad was there too) so of course we all had to take a look back at it together. Like all 90s movies it has some...interesting takes, but if you like doggies and baseball apparently this is the film for you.

Still Buffering: "Wednesday" (2022)
1/8/2023
This show blew up and broke the internet for a couple of weeks, so of course we had to revisit the world's favorite ooky and spooky family and take a week to talk all about Wednesday!
