  • Episode 129: "Volver" (2006)
    We are continuing our month of Almodóvar with 2006's "Volver," featuring Oscar-nominated Penelope Cruz, the return of Carmen Maura, a surprise BSA from "Holy Camp!", the exquisite agony of Agustina, a telenovela's worth of drama and scandal, the power of community (see: four women moving a freezer!), a buffet of Pedro's signature red and of course, two hours of exquisite lady acting.

  • Episode 128: BSA's on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown
    We are kicking off a month of Pedro Almodóvar with his 1988 classic "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown." Almodóvar regulars Carmen Maura, Antonio Banderas, Maria Barranco, Julieta Serrano, Rossy de Palma, Kiti Mánver, Guillermo Montesinos and Chus Lampreave all show to up for a farcical, melodramatic and totally compelling story of scorned lovers, spiked gazpacho, hot sex with Shiite terrorists, a Mambo-themed taxi cab, and through it all, a beautiful message about forgiveness and empathy.

  • Episode 127: The Miracles of "Holy Camp!" (2017)
    The Spanish musical "La Llamada" aka "Holy Camp!" may sound bonkers on paper: a teenage girl at a summer camp run by nuns has visions of God singing Whitney Houston songs to her. Meanwhile her best friend is in love with Best Supporting Sister Milagros, the camp chef is their drug dealer, and the new Mother Superior is one hell of a dancer. Call it an act of God, but it all makes for an incredibly charming and heartfelt story! And don't get us started on the way Milagros pulls her socks up...

  • Episode 126: Marion Ross - "The Evening Star" (1996)
    It may have been a box office dud no one was really asking for, but this sequel to "Terms of Endearment" has its merits, especially if you watched parts of it on TV as a child. Shirley MacLaine returns to her Oscar-winning role as Aurora, and is joined by "Happy Days" alum Marion Ross as her plucky long-time maid, whose burgeoning love story with Best Supporting Ben Johnson gives us some Golden Globe nominated kitchen acting. We also get Bill Paxton in khakis, Scott Wolf in the nude, a petulant Juliette Lewis, a delightful dialect from Miranda Richardson, Jack Nicholson nabbing a paycheck, the PILLS scene, the driving on the beach scene, and oh Melly, that score!

  • Episode 125: The BSA's of "Clueless" (1995)
    Cher, get in here! This week we are queening out on the queens of "Clueless." Though to be honest, A LOT of those queens were the men in this movie. That being said, Alicia Silverstone is giving us major butterflies and there's no denying Brittany Murphy as the true BSA. Snaps to Elisa Donovan, Breckin Meyer, the ageless Paul Rudd, a trio of tragic teachers and of course...Queen Dan. We discover that there is indeed a musical version of this movie and dive into why so many musicals adapted from movies don't work. Plus: Christian as gay representation in our childhood, the illustrious career of Aida Lenares, some 11th hour eye candy, the poster for "Emma," and planning our future with Brian Dennehy.

  • Episode 124: The BSA's of "The First Wives Club" (1996)
    Few things feel as perfectly 90's as "The First Wives Club," and we couldn't love it more. In a world of answering machines and bulky coats and sweeping Marc Shaiman scores is an all-star cast of ladies, and this week we're ranking our Top 5 BSA's, including a down in the dumps Debra Monk, Bette Midler at her most Joy Behar, Sarah Jessica Scene Stealer, Dame Maggie Smith's face journeys, and of course, with all the subtlety of a primal scream, the indomitable Diane Keaton. Along the way we queen out on Scott Wolf in "The Evening Star," Dan Hedaya in "Clueless," "It Takes Two," not seeing "Beaches," the Queening of Philip Bosco, and the musical theatre future of this movie. We wrap things up with a fantasy casting special full of Anne's!

  • Episode 123: "Okay, CODA." - The 2022 Oscars
    The Oscar race may have become slightly predictable by the night of the awards, but the award show itself, as the world knows, was anything but. So of course we've got to talk a little bit about The Slap, but more importantly, Best Supporting Lupita. And speaking of supporting, Lady Gaga and Yuh-Jung Youn were Best Supporting Angels, and Liza's matter of fact announcement of this year's Best Picture winner was a delightful way to end a weird night in Hollywood.

  • Episode 122: Judi Dench & Caitriona Balfe - "Belfast" (2021)
    Better late than never, we're finally talking about "Belfast" and it was worth the wait! Ciarán Hinds is giving Queen Troy Kotsur a run for his Oscar in the Best Supporting Actor category, while Judi is a bit of a surprise nomination who still packs a wallop in a few choice moments. Caitriona Balfe with that roar and that window acting and that Bus Scene joins the ranks of Ann Dowd for Best Supporting Moms without an Oscar nod this year. This movie brings up a lot of thoughts about seeking community, Irish moms, "My Left Foot" and "Passing" as potential companion pieces, and some good old fashioned thirsting for Jamie Dornan, when we can remember who he is.

  • Episode 121: The BSA's of RHONY (w/ Jen from Real Housewives Recaps!)
    It may not be prestige television, but when it comes to big BSA energy on TV, few shows have delivered as consistently as the Real Housewives of New York City. It's become a recent obsession for both of us, so we're finally breaking down the best, the worst and everyone in between of RHONY! Joining us is Jen from the YouTube channel Real Housewives Recaps, who brings her expertise and love for the show as well as an unpredictable list of nominees! Nick shares his Best Featured Actresses of RHONY, Colin pours a variety of flavors of tea about Sarah Jessica Parker and LuAnn DeLesseps (allegedly!), and we get to the bottom of Andy Cohen, so to speak. This episode was 2+ hours of pure queening out and we can't wait for a reunion!
