Jenny Owen YoungsHOST
Antennae.
Kristin RussoHOST
Antennae.Um, and then at home she's going to be Lydia Deetz in the red wedding dress, and then Avanti and I are going to be Barbara and Adam, I think their names are, if I'm recalling-
Jenny Owen YoungsHOST
Right
Kristin RussoHOST
... correctly.
John RochaHOST
Right now, NordVPN, Cure Hydration, Quince, Eleven Reader, uh, are, uh, running ads, uh, on our, uh, show right now, so please, if any of those appeal to you, make sure you reach out to them and use our code.
Steve MorrisHOST
And John, where we left off, the Maitlands, who are desperate to scare the Deetzes, have just been discovered by Lydia.
Steve MorrisHOST
She has documented their sheet-
John RochaHOST
[laughs]

Winona RyderSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
My father bought this place.
Winona RyderSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He never walks away from equity.
Steve MorrisHOST
Which I just, there's so many little clues of what Lydia's home life has been.
John RochaHOST
Yeah.
Isabel Lie-Olesen PhillipsHOST
I'm gonna force him to do that with me.
Ella Le FournourHOST
Or Beetlejuice and Lydia Deetz.
Sam KellyHOST
Fair enough.
Sam KellyHOST
I disagree with those.
Nick SmithHOST
Um, Lydia-
Matteo LaneHOST
Oh, Lydia, Lydia Deetz.
Matteo LaneHOST
Um-
Nick SmithHOST
Lydia can say it
Erin MillerHOST
First off, good guess, Kate.
Erin MillerHOST
I'm Lydia Deetz from Beetlejuice.
Kate SteinbergHOST
Wow.
Nicole Story DentHOST
In her red wedding outfit.
Michael WilsonHOST
And as I said, this film is a sequel to Beetlejuice from 1988, uh, set more than three decades after the first film, as it came, uh, [laughs] more than that time.
Michael WilsonHOST
Uh, it follows Lydia Deetz, now a mother struggling to keep her family together in the wake of her loss, as Beetlejuice returns to haunt her.
Michael WilsonHOST
So, uh, yeah.
Michael WilsonHOST
So this is a fairly recent film, but it is a legacy sequel.

Lady VianeGUEST
I, I think-
Michael WilsonHOST
Mm-hmm
Lady VianeGUEST
... that, um, speaking of Stranger Things, like, gosh, you know, she spent so long working on that show that I do think a lot of Joyce Byers bleeds into this performance as Lydia and, uh-
DKHOST
Mm
EJ LeesonHOST
But anyways-
Rory ColarossiHOST
I like her Lydia Deetz look.
EJ LeesonHOST
Yeah.
EJ LeesonHOST
I was gonna say, she has, like, a Lydia Deetz kind of look.
EJ LeesonHOST
Um, and she's just, like, small, tiny, and, uh, yeah.
Rory ColarossiHOST
I think her character-
speaker_3HOST
Yes.
speaker_2HOST
And the fashion from Lydia Deetz's iconic spiky bangs, pale skin, and black lace in the original to Astrid's updated modern alt looks in the sequel, it preserves and updates that quirky aesthetic rebellion that the subculture absolutely devours.
speaker_3HOST
But we have to ask a different question.
speaker_3HOST
What happens when a filmmaker strips away the rebellion, strips away the comedy, and even strips away the narrative plot entirely, leaving the audience with nothing but pure, concentrated atmospheric vibes?
Melanie LibraGUEST
Mm.
Keith LibraHOST
No Lydia Deetz anywhere.
Keith LibraHOST
How is Lydia not in this toy line? How, based on the film-
Dave HarbisonHOST
Right
8 MINS LATER
Dave HarbisonHOST
Okay.
Dave HarbisonHOST
Inter-
Keith LibraHOST
But, but thinking of, like, a Neca figure of Lydia Deetz, I can't really picture one.
Dave HarbisonHOST
Interesting.
Steve MorrisHOST
Delia hates it.
Steve MorrisHOST
Lydia is looking at a spider in a web and says,
Winona RyderSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I could live here.
Steve MorrisHOST
So that's the three different takes on the house all
Steve MorrisHOST
a question for you about this moment because we've just heard they've showed up and are talking about all the things they have to redo to make the house livable.
John RochaHOST
Yeah.
Steve MorrisHOST
Did Charles bring either Lydia or Delia to see this house before they were moving in? Oh, no, absolutely not.
