Episode 46 - Obsession (2025)
Explícito
What's so bad about podcasting with me? In this episode, Jae felt like everyone had too much of a jovial time with the last movie choice, so she had the crew watch the smash horror hit of the summer, Obsession. One half Twilight Zone, one half I Think You Should Leave, and 100% litmus test for sussing out untrustworthy men in your life, this movie is a rollercoaster of emotions not made for the faint of heart. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss incel psychosis, Hell's Customer Service Representatives, and Trans Ally, J. Jonah Jameson.
Episode 45 - Singin' in the Rain
Explícito
Gotta cast! Gotta cast! In this episode, Bri attempted to make good on her Ishtar crimes by making the rest of the girls watch 1952's classic musical, Singin' in the Rain. Easily one of the most iconic pieces of cinema from the 20th century, Singin' manages to transcend beyond simply being the height of old Hollywood's production power, instead being an uproariously funny movie about (and made by) outrageously talented people struggling with the ever-changing landscape of Hollywood and it's fraught connection with artisans. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss eating bugs, the sexism of the '50s, and why you should never respect law enforcement.
Episode 44 - Terminator 2: Judgment Day
Explícito
I know now why you podcast, but it's something I can never do. This week, EV decided to take the rest of the girls back to the well and drink deep on the T-1000's CapriSun fluids with 1991's Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Unsurprisingly, it's difficult to cover a piece of media as totemic as this in pop culture, but the girls scramble their way through the conversation somehow. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss nostalgia, what should happen to data centers, and Now That's What I Call Music!
Episode 43 - Mac and Me
Explícito
There aren't really any quotes from this movie that I can cheekily edit to be about podcasts, so I'm just gonna go in raw. In this episode, Bridget had the rest of the girls watch Mac And Me, an E.T.-sploitation movie that is drenched in ideology and cigar-chomping fat cat decision-making. It's primarily known as the movie with a clip that Paul Rudd always slips into his interviews with Conan O'Brien and it doesn't deserve much of a legacy beyond that. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss ableism, copyright infringement, and intrusive product placement.
Episode 42 - Cabaret (1972)
Life is a podcast, ol' chum! Jae felt like the rest of the girls needed an escape from their everyday troubles, so she decided to take them on a trip through 1972's Cabaret. A delightful musical at times, a textured character drama in others, and a dread-inducing piece on how escaping through art will not free you from your material conditions all throughout, Cabaret is a multifaceted film that juggles all of those elements effortlessly. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss messy polycules, The Original Fart Collection, and living through the rising tide of fascism.
Episode 41 - Ishtar
And now...a podcast dedicated to the lovely ladies...of the Left. In this week's episode, Bri chose to inflict the most boring violence imaginable on the rest of the girls by having them watch 1987's Ishtar. Primarily remembered for being a box office flop, this movie is a bizarre amalgamation of failures from production, casting, and conceptual standpoints that results in a remarkably dull viewing experience. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss getting bugged by the feds, the discography of Simon & Garfunkel, and an egregious misuse of Isabelle Adjani.
Episode 40 - Galaxy Quest
Never give up, never podcast! In this episode, EV choose to blodly take the rest of the girls where many movie disucssions have gone before: 1999's Galaxy Quest. This sci-fi comedy, serving as a meta-commentary on the value of nerd culture, has had a cult following since it's release and the girls spend this conversation talking about how that commentary has aged, in addition to, y'know, all the good jokes. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss the long-term ramifications of nerd culture escapism, the semantics of what makes something an isekai, and, unfortunately, Tim Allen.
Episode 39 - Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein
I never considered what would come after podcasting. This episode, Bridget decided to play God by having the rest of the girls watch Guillermo del Toro's recent Frankenstein adaptation. Although divisive in it's execution, it's impossible to deny the artistry and passion on display over the film's runtime. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss the Romantic movement, ableist ideology, and forgiveness as a form of liberation.
Episode 38 - Eddington
Just don't make me think; post it! It was only a matter of time before Jae picked an absolutely miserable movie to subject the rest of the girls too, but she's not alone in finding reverie in Ari Aster's Eddington, as the crew is willfully joined by Friends From The Internet's Zoe! Is it an irresponsible piece of cinema? Does it try to do "both-sides"-ism? Is it just another meditation on the struggle of cishet white men? Or is spending your time posting about these kinds of questions on the internet a futile exercise in feeling empowered when you are irreparably alienated from your fellow humans by said exercise? Join Bridget, EV, Bri, Jae, and Zoe as they discuss the dichotomy of gendered class, humiliation rituals, and the death of media literacy.
Episode 37 - Jennifer's Body
She's just podcasting, it's not that impressive. With the first step of Project Mellon out of the way, Bri decided to serve in a wildly different direction and have the rest of the girls watch Jennifer's Body. Despite being advertised at the time as another "Megan Fox is so hot" boner comedy, the director/writer combo of Karyn Kusama and Diablo Cody produced what is now considered a queer cult classic about post-9/11 America. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss MySpace, the indie rock boom of the mid to late 2000s', and the commodification of national tragedies.
