We killed the teen dream! This week, Peaches and Michael take a slo-mo strut down the hallway as they celebrate 1999's JAWBREAKER! In addition to discussing the film's Rocky Horror roots and impeccably curated punk rock queerness, our hosts explore the holy triumvirate of "teen bitches" that changed the way we view high school films forever. Joining the discussion is the legendary writer & director of JAWBREAKER itself, Darren Stein, who shares his insight on what happens when cult fandom claims a movie as their own. Then, Eve Lindley, acclaimed star of DISPATCHES FROM ELSEWHERE, stops by to discuss how her JAWBREAKER obsession has been a lifelong odyssey...and how, in many ways, the movie's characters reflect her own growth. From Pam Grier to the girl every teen fears, this episode's got it all!
