Silkwood with Laura Venning

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by film critic Laura Venning for this harrowing drama where the corruption – gasp – goes all the way to the top. We discuss shirtless Kurt Russell chopping wood (good), Meryl's mullet (good), Cher saying the word "dyke" in a Southern accent (GOOD), and our favorite pro-union films. Plus the messed up things that happen in blue-collar America and why Nora Ephron really is the best to ever do it!Follow us on Twitter, Bluesky, and IG!

Pitch Perfect with Alison Sivitz (Bald Ann Dowd)

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Alison Sivitz (aka Bald Ann Dowd), as we rocket agrressively back to 2012 and every piece of culture that comes with that. We discuss why this movie has aged like milk but still hits, questionable fashion choices (heeled...Converse...), Universal queerbaiting their audience, actual Peacock spinoff show "Bumper in Berlin," what Kenny Ortega is up to these days, what Hailee Steinfeld is also up to these days, Anna Kendrick's Oscar nom, and the fact that The Cup Song hit #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 – it did, it really did.Follow us on Twitter, Bluesky, and IG!

Romeo + Juliet with Joe Reid

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Joe Reid (This Had Oscar Buzz) for Baz Luhrmann's 1997 sun-soaked adaptation that taught a whole generation how to be young and horny.

Rent

Jordan and Brooke close out the year with Chris Columbus's unconventional holiday movie about the supposed power of collective action...or maybe just a toxic friend group! We go through which characters have been terrible people since the musical premiered, Jonathan Larson's catchy tunes and personal writing journey, the stereotypes of cheating bisexuals and tragic drag queens (eek), and our favorite questional "La Vie Bohème" lyrics.Follow us on Twitter and IG!

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy with Emma Logsdon

Jordan and Brooke are joined by editor Emma Logsdon for 2011's tense, understated, elegant spy drama that may or may not be a big hit with the Inception (2010) fandom?! We talk if we would be bad at spycraft (talkative, cries too much) or very good at spycraft (gay), the actual intelligence team this was based on, the intimacy of killing, our main squeeze Tom Hardy, and why this movie made the CIA so angry (not clickbait!).

The Wizard of Oz

Jordan and Brooke go over the rainbow for this 1939 classic that changed filmmaking forever, and may or may not have inspired the modern day pride flag! We rank every main character by canonical queerness (shoutout high femme lesbian Glinda truthers), discuss the very inclusive Oz books, ignore all other movie spin-offs (Wicked, you're on thin ice...), and get a bit emotional about how much this move means both to us and to the gay community.
