"So you're a sex therapist and you've never had an orgasm?"

On today's episode, we're starting off our month of Unconventional Love Stories with a movie that is part pornography, but also a meditation of relationships and sex as a whole. It's time to let go of all inhibitions and enter into Shortbus (2006).

We talk about John Cameron Mitchell, seeking understanding and connection in a big city, and just how hard it is to maintain the semblance of a "good" relationship in the "city that never sleeps"

"Is everybody gay!!!"

We're starting off Pride Month with an all-time gay classic, In & Out (1997). This movie has a nice little place in my heart, and I think it has so much to dig into, so be sure to tune into this episode to hear me gab about this littlest piece of heaven.

Aging stardom, delusion, ambition, and the ruthless machinery of Hollywood collide in Billy Wilder’s Sunset Blvd, one of cinema’s most haunting masterpieces. In this episode, me and my guest Beau, dive deep into the shadowy world of Norma Desmond — the forgotten silent‑film icon whose hunger for relevance spirals into obsession — and Joe Gillis, the struggling screenwriter who becomes trapped in her gilded cage. We also talk about all sorts of other stuff, too!
