This episode we examine the classic Audrey Hepburn film, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and the novella it was based on by Truman Capote. We have fun, surface level topics to discuss (fashion, parties, $50 for the powder room) as well as meatier issues to mull over (racism, child brides, homophobia) so grab your pearl chokers and 3 foot long cigarette holders and settle in! 

This episode we discuss a domestic thriller that blurs the lines of suspense and comedy with A Simple Favor, written by Darcey Bell and its film adaptation directed by Paul Feig. Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively show off their amazing chemistry and comedic chops in this film, but is the book as subversive or witty? This episode we delve into questionable sibling relationships, amazing fashion, and advanced 'mom-ing.'

Let your imaginations run wild this episode as we discuss The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, directed by Ben Stiller and adapted from the James Thurber short story. Despite being only 4-5 pages long, the Thurber story has remained relevent for decades, but of course there was a lot of expanding to be done for the feature film. We look at the way each version approaches Walter's day dreams, the film's globe trotting adventure and the iconic Benjamin Button parody scene which we have a lot of thoughts about!

This episode, love is in the air as we discuss Heartstopper, the Netflix series directed by Euros Lyn and based on the comic series by Alice Oseman. This LGBTQ+ love story is incredibly sweet and touching, but still manages to address a lot of interesting topics, like the struggles of knowing when to come out, the importance of friendship, and the mysterious rules of Rugby.

This episode, we explore the rise and fall of the fictitious band Daisy Jones & the Six, written by Taylor Jenkins Reid and adapted as an Amazon Series in 2023. This story, inspired by real bands such as Fleetwood Mac, explores the romance, drug abuse and conflict going on as the band releases its hit album Aurora. We discuss the unique interview style of the book, the boundaries of commitment and a ghoulish looking Sam Claflin (at least in one scene.

This episode we follow the money and learn about All the President's Men, written by Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward, and directed by Alan J. Pakula in 1976. We discuss the facts of this conspiracy, the players involved, and the larger picture of Watergate. Get ready as we analyze subtle head nods, famous pornos, and the battle of facts vs. vibes!

Let the wild rumpus start! Although it took nearly fifty years, Maurice Sendak's beloved children's book, Where the Wild Things Are (1963), finally made it's big screen debut in 2009, written and directed by Spike Jonze. We discuss how innovative the book was for its time, how the film expands on the story, and the fantastic production involved in bringing the story to life. 

This episode we discuss the literary classic, All Quiet on the Western Front, written by Erich Maria Remarque, and the 2022 film adaptation directed by Edward Berger. This somber look at war gives us plenty of heavy topics mull over, but don't worry, there's also plenty of talk about bodily functions and goose stealing too.

Things get very steamy this episode as we discuss the novel Lady Chatterley's Lover, written by D. H. Lawrence, and the recent Netflix adaptation directed by Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre. This story explores topics such as sex, gender, capitalism and systems of power, all while dishing out explicit sex scenes which got the book infamously banned and censored when it was first released. But can a book written in the 20's still be as shocking by today's standards? Yes it can.

The story of Katniss Everdeen and the Hunger Games comes to a conclusion this episode as we discuss Mockingjay Part 2, directed by Francis Lawrence and written by Suzanne Collins.
