THE MOST BIZARRE BANK SIEGE EVER.


We're going big with our last film for this year's Pride celebration, Sidney Lumet's seminal '70s classic DOG DAY AFTERNOON. We break down the film's incredibly complicated queerness, the insane career of John Cazale, and try to wade through a really nuanced conversation about the revolutionary politics going on in this film. We also talk new releases like The Bikeriders and Inside Out 2, catch up on currently airing television like The Boys and House of the Dragon, and run through next month's slate of episodes at the top of the show.
