Every cast from popular 2000s TV shows, and they momma, got a rewatch podcast — and I am living for it. I love that podcasts are getting casts back together and telling the story behind the shows I love so much.

Below are two of my favorite rewatch podcasts to listen to at the moment.

Office Ladies

If you know me, you know that I love The Office. It is my entire personality. It is my humor. I’m not superstitious, but I’m a little stitious.

Listening to a podcast dedicated to revealing the behind-the-scenes life of making The Office, hosted by two main cast members, makes me so stupidly happy.

I’m currently in the middle of my biannual rewatch of The Office in its entirety (I just started season 3). But, this time I’m listening to Office Ladies episodes that correlate with each episode. I love that I’m taking the time to slowly enjoy each episode, right along with some of my favorite people.

Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey, also known as Pam and Angela from The Office, have such great chemistry. You can tell that they are friends for real by the way they talk to each other. They show each other so much love and crack so many jokes about each other at the same time. It is wonderful.

They also give so many interesting tidbits on the episode that I wouldn’t have ever known otherwise.

I love when they reference which bits were scripted, and which were improvised. As someone who’s very into the technical aspects of TV production and screenwriting, those things are so fascinating to me.

They started the podcast in 2019 and have discussed almost seven seasons of The Office since. They may even finish the entirety of The Office before I have a chance to get through it during this rewatch session.
