Podcast Description
Pancakes and a valium is a podcastblog dedicated to discussion about the Otalia pairing on Guiding Light. It began when we (Liz and Dani) started having long, detailed, geeky conversations about the intricacies of the storyline every night. We figured it would be beneficial to our social lives, relationships, and general sanity to get these thoughts out. Maybe someone else will want to listen.

PaaV loves a good 3Way | We love everyone who’s bored enough to come onto our nerdy podcast, but to have Nancylee Myatt, Maeve Quinlan, and Paige Bernhardt come and talk about 3way, South of Nowhere, and Nikki and Nora with us - this is truly our geek mecca. | 11/23/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #25 | I hope you guys are ready for more awesome randomness. I apologize in advance if you still use an aol email address, but not if you still use checks in stores. Cause c’mon. Liz is a superstar for getting this one edited and done, because we’ve both been busy as hell, and if it were up to me it’d be even later. | 10/29/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #24 | We’re back like Pee Wee and Backstreet! This week is an experiment of sorts. We decided to talk about things we love and things we hate. There might be some Grey’s, Glee, and Balloon Boy in there. We’re naturally long-winded, so, voila! | 10/29/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #23 | Well weirdos, this is it. At least for Otalia and Guiding Light. This is the last time we’ll make fun of Frank Cooper (this is not the last time we’ll make fun of Frank). The last time we’ll mention how hot Olivia Spencer is (this is not the last time we’ll mention how hot Olivia Spencer is). The last time we’ll….you get the idea. We’ve had a week to mull over the Guiding Light finale, join us for the wrap up podcast | 9/27/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #22 | Yay! A week where we re-watched clips out of pure enjoyment and not because we’re secretly masochists. So much cuteness. It really bites that we only have one week left when we’re FINALLY getting some of the physical intimacy we’ve been clamoring for. Here comes the home stretch - let’s enjoy this together, shall we? | 9/13/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Crystal Chappell keeps it real | Basically, we’re lucky s**ts. Crystal Chappell was kind enough to take time out of her busy schedule of being awesome to talk with us. Once we stopped swallowing our tongues, we had a lot of fun with her. Gush, gush, gush…she’s great. We all know this. So why don’t you listen and find out what she had to say about cheese, which lines she definitely ad-libbed on GL, and what Olympic sport she’d like to compete in. | 9/3/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #20 | The plus side is this podcast was not recorded in the hallway of a hotel. On the other hand, this week is weird because frankly, we’re feeling weird about the show. We could have extended our collective WTF beyond Otalia into the rest of Springfield (Mallet’s story, for example), but we felt like we’d end up in straitjackets if we did. The dearth of physical intimacy, layered and cerebral writing, and logical editing is slowly sapping our will to snark | 8/30/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV loves Orlagh Cassidy | What can we say? We love Orlagh Cassidy. She was kind enough talk to us about the revelation that Doris was a lesbian, the fun of playing a total bitch, why Doris cares that Olivia and Natalia end up together, and who would be her ideal mate for Doris. | 8/30/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #19 | Some things are better aged… Cheese, wine, this podcast. But its still Monday so quit your whining! Thanks to Kish for coming on to help us fill in the gaps caused by Dani’s near absence this week, and thanks to that guy in the hotel room for being cool, for a while anyway. Come hear Liz get schooled on how to use profanity, Dani being more weird than usual, and Kish being horribly cold hearted about a deep seeded fear of mine. | 8/24/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV: Tello talks Outfest | Our Tello BFFs joined us to discuss their adventures at Outfest. We always ask the important questions like: were there any pants removed? and how is Nicole’s interview sobriety going? Of course, no interview would be complete without a round of ‘Would You Rather?’ Nicole cheats, while Christin admirably tries to uphold the unspoken rules of the game. | 8/17/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #18 | Guess what? You’re spared from more complete randomness because this was a 3-day Olivia week. Like an oasis of hard liquor in a desert full of Coopers, we got enough Olivia to properly do our thing, and damn it feels good to get our groove back. The shadow of Natalia’s return has breathed new life into us! And invigorated Liz’s need to point out the rampant lack of undershirts in Springfield. Let’s do this! | 8/17/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #17 | Warning: this podcast is a hot mess. We’re going to use the “No Otalia” discombobulation defense and also say that we love you enough not to leave you hanging on Monday mornings, even when GL lets us down. PaaV listener and hottie author Mari SanGiovanni was kind enough to send us copies of her book, “Greetings From Jamaica, Wish You Were Queer.” So while we actually enjoyed our reprieve from watching Olivia alcoholically self-destruct, we spent our time wisely - reading. What’s the verdict? Lesbians CAN have happy endings! You heard it here first. Thanks, Mari. | 8/9/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV Outtakes #2 | For this super delectable Friday fun day, we offer you outtakes. You’re welcome! The first few minutes are various outtakes from early podcasts (which is why the audio is so crazy different) - and the last bit is from last weeks 15 min giggle / tease fest that spontaneously combusted while attempting to record our outro. We kinda crack ourselves up. | 8/9/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #16 | Have you ever wondered where Dani gets her violent tendencies from? Or where Liz’s melodic voice originates from? You need only listen to this podcast. Join us as we discuss another week of Devastated Drunk Olivia. We’ll get through this together, people. | 8/2/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Otalia Trivia PaaV Style | So, last week was huge- and this week we wanted to get back to our roots. You guys. We started this to have fun and play around with other Otalia goofballs so this week we organized a nice little game of trivia. | 7/28/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

It's PaaV + Elizabeth Keener, b@#$%! | How the hell did we get Elizabeth Keener to talk to us? Who cares, really. She totally did. So where did that whole "my lover Cindy" thing come from? And would Keener rather be eaten by a shark, or mauled by a bear? | 7/19/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #14 | How did we manage to spend 55 minutes talking about 10 minutes of screentime? We're awesome, that's how. Luckily for us CC was up to the task of looking hot while playing emotional devastation. | 7/19/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV is Wowed by Tina Sloan | Somehow we saved enough kittens from burning buildings in our past life to have the distinct pleasure of chatting with Tina Sloan. She even played "Would You Rather?" like a champ - clearly, there are few people cooler than her. | 7/19/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #13 | I think we got most of our ranting out last week, so this week we’re happy to get back to some analysis of things that don’t suck. Like cheeseburgers, Doris and Olivia’s road trip, and Crystal Chappell in earth tones. I’m still waiting for Liz to pull a Streetcar Named Desire under my window, but for now, Olivia’s version will have to do. | 7/13/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #12 | Eggs, donuts, tube socks, and PaaV podcasts! All now available in dozens. Normally 5 days of Otalia would have us dancing in our unicorn pajama pants, but no. It was a hard week, but wine and ranting seem to have helped. Join us as we discuss blowing kisses, modern art orgies, and the many WTF moments of the week. If you’re looking for sunshine and b******t, shop elsewhere, we’re fresh out. | 7/6/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV with Lana Nieves | Its been a tough, angsty, somewhat frustrating week. Whos up for some "Would you Rather?" with Lana from Superhero Lunchbox? We managed to talk a little Guiding Light as well - San Cristobel shenanigans and all. | 7/6/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #11 | Once again CBS faked us out with a preview for Tuesday. Clearly those bastards are toying with our emotions. We still got two days of Otalia - bookended so our withdrawal symptoms didn’t get into rubber sheets land. Join us as we debate hot face touching, single mommy guilt, the Good Coopers (gag), and the dreaded spoiler which shall not be named. | 6/29/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Special PaaV: Top 10 Otalia Episodes | In honor of our 10th Podcast, Liz and I decided to come up with our top 10 Otalia episodes. Which is an awesome assignment and in some ways really easy and in others insanely hard. It’s like choosing which child you love more (okay, except if that child happens to be named Frank, Reva, Marina, Mallet, etc. etc.). There’s a wealth of awesome Otalia stuff, from subtle to overt to hilarious to heart-wrenching. A great reminder of why we love this couple. | 6/25/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #10 | Break out the pinatas and party hats, PaaV has made it to the big One Oh. Back when PaaV was simply a glimmer in our eye, we never thought we’d get here. We never thought we’d have the success and the love we have. We owe it all to you all. We have some of the most rad listeners in all of podcast land, our comments and emails are always super nice and funny and smart and insightful. We are so blessed to be doing this, not a day goes by that we don’t acknowledge how lucky we are. We honestly and sincerely thank each of you for being a part of this amazing experience. blahblahblah… | 6/22/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV Tello Films JL Interview Redux | The masterminds behind Tello Films, Christin and Nicole, came back to talk with us about their Jessica Leccia interview, what lesbian films they recommend, and whether or not they’d rather get eaten by a shark or mauled by a bear.

PaaV with Jennifer Gibbons | We somehow convinced Jennifer Gibbons from Red Room to come talk with us about all things groundbreaking on Guiding Light. Clearly she’d never listened to our podcast, she’s way too cool for us. We had a great time and feel 65% smarter now, so win. | 6/14/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

PaaV #8 | This is probably one of our rantiest podcasts ever. It could be because Dani’s blood alcohol content was 90% pinot grigio. But probably not. If this week didn’t inspire you to go on a rant yourself (share in the comments!) then we apologize in advance. We bitch because we love, and this week was damned frustrating. At least we got the backwards wave and a few other tidbits. Unwind with us, it’s cathartic. | 6/7/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
Wow!
I found this by chance and decided to take a listen and was hooked. It's a great breakdown of my favorite new paring. I hope the next one comes out soon.
Best Otalia
There is no better podacst! These ladies will have you laughing outloud in embarassing places!
sexy smart snarky and sizzling
Liz and Dani have almost as much chemistry as Olivia and Natalia, and banter like Hepburn and Tracy, only saltier! Liz has a great laugh and perfect radio voice, with witty and in depth spot on analysis of the show, and Dani is the perferct straight girl (so to speak!) for Liz, and is insightful and funny in her own right.These two have snared some scoop too---check out the Tina Sloan interview. Love this podcast.
