Welcome! We're Bree Leach (@bleach226) and Jess Koehler (@jesspkoehler) and we can't wait to introduce ourselves to you... and then go on many missions as we rewatch Alias (spoiler-free). We'll be back with our first episode discussion on August 24, 2020! 

If you're checking out the show notes before the episode, you can find the original promo for Alias below. It's the first 30 seconds of the video (so stop after that to avoid spoilers).

This is the one where Bree (@bleach226) and Jess (@jesspkoehler) gush about how Sydney has bright red hair, how we're meeting all of our favorite characters for the first time, where we learn that Jack does NOT sell airplane parts, and the music is JUST SO ALIAS.

MUSIC: If you're streaming and want to line up the scenes with the original feature songs, here are the sound clips.

Sydney & Danny at home (start at the track on 13:58): Play Never Grow Old by The Cranberries starting at 00:00; this song gets cut, so from the "do, do, do" it skips past the 2nd verse straight to "hope you never grow old" after the 3rd repetition, cut to "forever young" (Sydney turns up the stereo at "I hope you'll stay" -- I mean, can you even?!).

Funeral scene (start just as it cuts to the funeral at 35:53): Play Here Comes The Flood by Peter Gabriel starting the song at 00:00.

Final scene at the cemetery (start at 1:02:01 in the show): Play Give You Back by Vertical Horizon starting the song at 00:00.


VIDEO: The YouTube clip discussing Alias that we reference, with the former CIA Chief of Disguise, starts here at the 1:42 mark in the video (or if your podcatcher doesn't show hyperlinks, visit: https://youtu.be/mUqeBMP8nEg?t=101). Note: There is a second clip from a later season of Alias from 23:17 - 24:24.

This is the one where Bree (@bleach226) and Jess (@jesspkoehler) talk about the music in the bathtub scene at length because it gives us ALL OF THE FEELINGS. It's also the one where Vaughn gives Sydney a happy face bandaid, Sydney wears an iconic blue dress, and Marshall tells Sydney to "hold the phone" while she is SITTING ON A TICKING BOMB.

MUSIC: If you're streaming and want to line up the scenes with the original feature songs, here are the sound clips.

Sydney moves in (start just as scene opens from credits 9:16 per Amazon IMDB X-Ray): Play Looking For A Friend by Roland Gift starting the song at 00:10.

Sydney at home/in the bathtub (start at the 29:30 mark): Play This Woman's Work by Kate Bush starting at 00:30

TRAVEL: Here is the link to the post Jess found about Taipei that was mentioned in the pre-intro.
