Completely Unqualified

The time has come, folks. We're so sad to see this amazing podcast go, but Episode Fifty-Two - The Completely Unqualified Finale - is here. Listen to this quick, final episode now for details on our podcast statistics throughout the past year, as well as updates to come regarding episode and social media take-down. Randi and Lindsey reflect on some of their favorite podcast moments and movies & give their immense thanks to everyone that tuned in throughout this year. We love you all. So, so much. Thank you again for a wonderful year (officially a year tomorrow!!) of film reviews and lots of laughs. For the last time, we're signing off. And we are...completely unqualified. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/completelyunq/support

Episode Fifty-One is here, and sadly, you know what that means...it's the last film review episode of Completely Unqualified with Lindsey Mead and Randi DeShone. We are going to miss talking about movies with you all every Wednesday. It's so bittersweet to be releasing this to our friends, family, and fans today, but we are SO grateful to EVERYONE that has tuned in to this makeshift podcast over the course of the year. We appreciate you, we love you, and we THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. So, for the Completely UNQ film review finale and last movie in the Harry Potter saga, we discussed Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 (2011) on Episode Fifty-One. The episode title, as always, will make sense once you listen! Plenty of our usual laughs, fun facts, and HP simping happens throughout our final show. Next week, our *final* final episode will be published, marking a year (one day early) of Completely Unqualified, as well as its official conclusion. If you're a sponsor, please be sure to cancel your sponsorship so we don't keep charging you as our episodes remain available on streaming services, but without us putting out any new content. On Episode Fifty-Two we discuss necessary podcast-related and life-related updates, give our thanks, and conclude our comedic film review podcast in typical Randi and Lindsey fashion. You won't want to miss it. xoxo.

We made it to Episode Fifty! Thank you to all of our wonderful listeners who got to this point with us!! And, we are lucky enough this week to be joined by one of Lindsey's best friends, Bridget Dickens. Randi had a busy week, so lifelong HP fan and dear law school pal, "Bag," joins Completely UNQ to discuss Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 (2010). Lindsey and Bridget talk about angsty Ron, Bridget's fear of "those little piggy people" (AKA the Dursleys), and the unfortunateness of being a third wheel. We apologize for the microphone feedback and bumping if you hear it on this episode - due to the last-minute fill-in for Randi, we had to make do with one mic! We hope you enjoy!! Next week, it's our last Completely Unqualified movie review episode. We're finishing out the review-section of the podcast and the Harry Potter saga with the final installment in the series: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 (2011). Randi and Lindsey will be back for one final "goodbye" episode the day before the year anniversary of the podcast!! We can't wait to share our final thoughts on our favorite franchise in the world with you all on Wednesday.

Hey everyone! Only two more movie-review episodes left of Completely Unqualified after this one - crazy to think about. This Wednesday, we watched Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009). The Completely UNQ gals talk about Randi's social work analysis of Draco, their favorite Harry Potter insults, and their favorite spells in the HP series on this quick episode. Per usual, there was too much we had to do and too little time to really dive into this episode. As a summary, just know Lindsey continues to mourn the loss of Dumbledore and Randi thinks he's a terrible character. Sigh. Next week, keeping up with the HP saga, we're watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 (2010). Get your tissues ready, there's only more death and sadness to come!! We are so grateful you all have stuck with us for almost a whole year now - 49 episodes full. Thanks again for your continuous support, your listenership, and your movie recommendations that have made this podcast what it is. We love you!

Yes, it's true...somehow we manage to talk about chicken fillets AND fiddles on an episode dedicated to Harry Potter. Happy Wednesday, Completely UNQ friends and fans! Randi and Lindsey discussed Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) this week! The Completely Unqualified gals talk about the dark theme of depression in the fifth installment of the series, as well as their hate for Delores Umbridge and the monumental loss of Sirius (AKA "Daddy Black"). Check it out before it's gone, as you know Completely UNQ will be coming to a close in a little under a month. We will miss you all so much (as well as giving our unqualified opinions about movies each week). Next week, following the Harry Potter series chronologically, we are reviewing Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009). Watch the entire HP series on HBO Max if you want to keep up with us each Wednesday, and get ready to round out this incredible saga with us in the coming weeks!

Welcome back to your normally-scheduled Wednesday program. We're your hosts, Randi and Lindsey, bringing you Episode Forty-Seven! This week, we watched Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005). This is one of Randi's favorite films in the franchise and one of Lindsey's least favorites, so the contrast is striking on this episode! Listen to the Completely Unqualified gals discuss Robert Pattinson (per usual), angsty teen behavior, and the cinematic score in HP4! You won't want to miss it. Next week, we're obviously sticking with our Harry Potter saga theme and watching Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007). We have had so much fun talking about our favorite movie series with you all, and we're going to miss Completely UNQ so much once this is all over. Make sure you follow our social media while you can for updates on our show and the HP series as we go!

WE ARE BACK! Completely Unqualified has never had to take a week off, but last week, as you all know due to the lack of an episode (and on Completely UNQ's social media (@completelyUNQ on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram), Lindsey messed up the editing process by deleting our original Part Two of Episode Forty-Six. Today, you get half of our original episode and half of a week-delayed recorded version of Episode Forty-Six! So, so sorry, but we hope you laugh and enjoy anyway. We covered Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) on "When You Give a Dementor a Zoloft." We also announced that Completely UNQ will be coming to an end here shortly. Though it is extremely unfortunate and Randi & Lindsey will miss this pod so much, their adult lives are rushing at them top-speed (as well as school and work and the attempt to maintain a social life), so this is truly for the best. Don't worry, though, we are finishing HP! This episode in particular was packed full of craziness, wild tangents, and updates for our podcast, so you won't want to miss it! We apologize for the redundancy due to the week gap!! Next week, keeping with our Harry Potter theme, we are watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005). Stay tuned, it will arrive to you timely (if all goes according to plan), and relish in these last few episodes of Completely Unqualified with us! xoxo.

It's another great Wednesday here at Completely UNQ! We're happy to welcome back Lindsey's mom, Tracey, on Episode Forty-Five while Randi was off enjoying her Labor Day weekend. For today's episode, we watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002). Lindsey and her mom talked about their favorite elements in HP2, the high caliber acting in this film series, and the need to boycott any movie involving animal death (or petrification or shaving). It's an episode full of chaos and the Mead ladies talking over one another, so you won't want to miss it. Apologies for the lower-quality audio due to Zooming Lindsey's mom in for the episode last minute. Next week, keeping in chronological order with the Harry Potter saga, we're watching Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004). We can't wait to keep reviewing this series with you all every Wednesday on Completely Unqualified.

Let the magic begin!! This Wednesday, we are so happy (even though we sound exhausted in this episode - sorry!) to bring you the first review in our eight-part series surrounding the Harry Potter saga. We reviewed Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (Philosopher's) Stone (2001). Randi and Lindsey have been lifelong fans of the franchise, so we look forward to revisiting our home - Hogwarts. Listen to Lindsey and Randi talk about Professor MaGongagill, magic capers, and what they would see in the Mirror of Erised on Episode Forty-Four. Next week, join us as we review Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002). The first three Harry Potter movies are free to watch on Peacock TV right now, so re-watch them with us (because we are presuming you've seen them all like the rest of the world at least once before). They're not as "indie" as we may have portrayed on this episode. And, as always, make sure to follow us on our social media to stay up-to-date on all things Wizarding World for the next couple of weeks - @completelyUNQ on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Howdy, everyone! Happy Wednesday. This might be "LEEETERLY" one of Lindsey and Randi's favorite movies to talk about, even if the entire episode isn't coherent. You know how it is on Completely Unqualified by now. But, this week, thanks to Connor's recommendation from "I Love It Here, I Hate It Here" podcast, we watched Moonlight (2016). Everybody say thank you, Barry Jenkins. Randi and Lindsey talked about the cinematography and revolutionary filmmaking decisions the cast and crew made to bring this masterpiece of a movie to life. Make sure you watch this one, folks. Thanks to your voting in our poll on social media, we can officially announce what film series we're watching for the next few weeks on Completely UNQ!! You decided on...the Harry Potter saga! We can't wait to watch these movies with you all. Lindsey and Randi have been lifelong fans of the franchise, so if we're qualified on any movie series, it's this one. We have read the material, ladies and gents. So, join us next week by watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) and keeping up to date on our social media by following us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram (@completelyUNQ). You can recommend a stand-alone film or film series to our email - completelyunqualifiedpc@gmail.com - at any time, as well.

It's hump day! On Episode Forty-Two, Randi and Lindsey discuss Sam's recommendation - Sweet Home Alabama (2002). This rom-com classic was easy to attack for the Completely UNQ gals, as a lot of its content felt dated. Listen to Lindsey and Randi discuss the coonhound cemetery, their favorite movie quotes, and why Ms. Smooter was the true villain of this romantic comedy. We challenge the notion of "Southern culture" a lot on this episode, so if that's something you truly believe in, "Growing Out of Our Pretty Years" is probably not the episode for you! Next week, we're watching Moonlight (2016). Randi and Lindsey have often talked about how stunning of a film this is on the pod, and how emotion-evoking it was for the both of them upon their first viewing. They're eager to bring their commentary to such an important movie next Wednesday on Completely Unqualified. Thanks for recommending this Connor! And we are...completely unqualified! P.S.

We hope you're all having the best Wednesday! Lindsey's off in the mountains, so this episode is pre-recorded and scheduled for today for all of you devoted Completely UNQ listeners. Though our social media (@completelyUNQ on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter) may be quiet this week, we aren't on this episode! Randi and Lindsey talked about His House (2020) for Episode Forty-One. We discussed double-checking that your partner would believe you if you saw a ghost, the intricate themes in this spooky film, and how excited we are to be witnessing the new generation of horror movies right now! Enjoy His House as much as we did! Thanks for the recommendation, Sarah. Next week, we're watching a rom com classic that neither Lindsey or Randi have seen before - Sweet Home Alabama (2002). Watch this on Hulu or Sling TV if you have a premium subscription! Thanks for recommending this one, Sam! Make sure you write in your own movie recommendations to our email - completelyunqualifiedpc@gmail.com. We would love to hear what you want us to watch next.

We've made it to Episode Forty somehow!! Thanks for being along for the ride, Completely UNQ fans & stans. After reviewing the Twilight Saga for an entire month before "Dumb Broad Behavior," we watched (perhaps) the most wild film on the pod thus far for today's episode, Boogie Nights (1997). Thanks for recommending this one, Matt! Randi and Lindsey were both in low spirits for this episode, so we apologize for less humor, less jokes, and somber tone. This movie was so much fun and we wish we could've given it a little bit more *umph.* But, it is what it is, folks; Simone Biles says mental health first! We hope Episode Forty is enjoyable nonetheless. We certainly had a lot to say - in rambling format - about Boogie Nights. Next week, we're watching His House (2020). We just keep shaking it up from young adult fantasy films to adult movies about the porn industry to a scary movie, but what else can you expect on Completely Unqualified!? Thanks for requesting this one, Sarah!

Happy Wednesday! It’s our last day reviewing the Twilight Saga and we had so much fun along the way. Thanks for sticking with us, ya’ll. Today – obviously – we’re discussing The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 (2012) on Episode Thirty-Nine. Randi and Lindsey talk about the iconic beheading fight scene, Chuckesmee, and why Bella is a negligent mother. We hope to do another movie series on the podcast in the upcoming weeks and/or months, so if you’re interested, write in which saga you’d like to see us do next to our email – completelyunqualifiedpc@gmail.com. Next week, we’re back to our typical programming here on Completely Unqualified! We’re watching Randi’s friend Matt’s recommendation on Netflix, Boogie Nights (1997). Neither of us have seen this film before so, as Lindsey allegedly says twice this episode, BUCKLE UP!

No measure of time with you all on these fine Wednesdays will ever be enough, but we'll start with an entire hour dedicated to The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 (2011). Thanks for being here to listen to Randi and Lindsey talk about pedophile Jacob, how Edward gets baby Renesmee out into the world, and the political undertones of the first part of the final installment in the Twilight series. Lots of laughs, lots of tears (all Randi), and lots of questions are posed on Episode Thirty-Eight. You don't want to miss this one, fellow Twihards. Next week is our last Wednesday dedicated to Stephenie Meyer's universe. We're watching The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 (2012). Binge it on Netflix with us before July 28th and get ready to end this series on a high note - decapitated heads and all!

We swear the title of this episode will make sense if you just listen. Happy Wednesday, friends! Today, of course, we're keeping up with our Twilight Saga theme by watching and discussing The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010). We promise it's spicy, as Lindsey says WAY too much on Episode Thirty-Seven. Listen to the Completely UNQ gals (finally back to their normal duo - but, thanks for your service, Mama Trace) talk about Jacob Black quotes, how Jasper Cullen is a racist, and how catching feelings for men is simply a HOAX(TM). We're so happy Randi is back on the pod! Next week, join us (now on Netflix) by watching The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 (2011).

We bet you never expected this...and, honestly, we didn't either. But, we were lucky enough to have Mama Mead step in last minute to record our New Moon episode for our Twilight Saga series with Lindsey after some unexpected things came up for Randi! So, please welcome Mrs. Tracey Mead to Completely Unqualified! We watched, of course, The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) this Wednesday! And, though we are thankful to have Lindsey's mom on the pod with us, Randi will be back soon!! We were so lucky to have Tracey Mead on the mic while we could because she shares with the world her experience as a "Twilight Mom" on Episode Thirty-Six. "An Evening with Everyone's Favorite Twilight Mom" is full of Lindsey and Tracey talking over each other (in hopes of saving time while they record in the wee hours of the night) and lots of laughs, so we hope you enjoy, even though we're missing one half of Completely UNQ! Again, thanks a BILLION, Lindsey's mom (she loves you so much)! Next week, we're watching The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010). We hope we have some semblance of normalcy on Episode Thirty-Seven for you. If not, we're completely unqualified after all, right?!

Do YOU know what "perpetuity" means? Well we don't. But we do know the world of Twilight (2008), and we had so much fun saying it out loud and revisiting it for Episode Thirty-Five on the pod today! Thanks for recommending Completely Unqualified's first ever movie series, Libby! Listen to Randi and Lindsey take their walk down memory lane toward everything Twilight; Lindsey rereads the Director's Notebook she got in fifth grade, Randi riffs to Rob Pattinson's songs on the soundtrack, and both of the Completely UNQ ladies recall the "Twilight Moms" sensation. There was SO much more we wish we could've talked about, but this episode ended up being long anyway. Twilight is too iconic to encapsulate in a completely unqualified podcast, but we sure did try! Next week, keeping with the Twilight Saga theme, we're watching The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009)! PLEASE write in to completelyunqualifiedpc@gmail.com, not only if you have a new movie recommendation, but also if you were Team Jacob! Randi and Lindsey are both Team Edward stans, but we'd love to hear your (wrong) opinion regarding the famous Twilight love triangle.

We're going BACK...to the present? On this episode of Completely Unqualified, Lindsey and Randi review the classic 80s adventure-comedy, Back to the Future (1985). We talk about how crispy McDonald's Sprite is, how Janet needs to take a seat, and about that godforsaken baby to adult pipeline. Please ignore the sounds of Randi's air conditioning, the alfredo, Randi's squeaky chair, and Lindsey's dog, Winnifred. As always, we're bringing you unqualified, sketchy content on this fine Wednesday. Thanks for recommending Back to the Future, Justin!! Next week, we're definitely going back to the past; a past where Lindsey had a Twilight-themed 5th grade birthday party and Randi wished Edward Cullen was her boyfriend. That's right! The results of our social media poll are in (you better be following us @completelyUNQ on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram), and we're watching the Twilight Saga for the next few weeks!!! Thanks for recommending these movies, Libby! First up, of course, is the OG - Twilight (2008). Join us on our walk down memory lane with this film franchise and for the roast of the century of a movie series that brought us so much joy (somehow) next Wednesday. You won't want to miss it!

Happy Hump Day! Sorry if we bring down the mood, but Episode Thirty-Three covered a film Randi and Lindsey would describe as "Ouch! 10 out of 10." You guessed it...this week, we watched About Time (2013). Randi and Lindsey discuss the emotional impact of this movie, urging all of our listeners - as always - to take care of their mental health. We love you! We also talk about how the word "cupboard" looks weird spelled out and the frequency of Lindsey's clenched-fist temper tantrums. Thanks for recommending this wonderful but heartbreaking movie, Celina! Next week, we're watching an adventure, comedy classic - Back to the Future (1985). Thanks for the recommendation, Justin!
