This episode originally aired in October 2024. A second season of English Teacher premieres on Hulu on September 25, 2025.

You may know Brian Jordan Alvarez from the killer horror film M3GAN or from his web series The Gay and Wondrous Life of Caleb Gallo. Most recently, Brian created and stars in the FX comedy series English Teacher, a refreshingly hilarious original that follows a high school teacher navigating personal and professional life in Texas. It's critically acclaimed and canonically GAY! This week, Brian schools us on the series AND talks about the work of filmmakers that inspire him, including Pedro Almodóvar’s  ALL ABOUT MY MOTHER.  Plus, one deep cut of Brian's viral internet spiritualist, the one and only Marnie T. 

Then Jordan has one quick thing about Timo Tjahjanto’s  action film The Shadow Strays on Netflix.
