Fake Geek Girls - A Critical Look at Pop Culture episodes

May 14, 2019 Episode 111 - Heathers
Lick it up, baby, because we're taking a closer look at 1989's Heathers, a cult film dissecting the cold, calculating dark side of humanity (and the Reagan era). We also take a little jaunt into the disastrous television adaptation and the extremely catch music to ask the nagging question, "Does Heathers have any relevance today?"
Warning: In addition to swearing, this episodes contains references to suicide, sexual assault, eating disorders, and school violence.

April 29, 2019 Episode 110 – The Last Unicorn
Beauty is truth, truth beauty, and also unicorns. Welcome to our discussion of Peter S. Beagle's classic The Last Unicorn, in which we also bring in Keats and Plato because there's layers upon layers upon layers to this story, and we want to devour them like a delicious, buttery croissant.

April 09, 2019 Episode 109 – Jennifer’s Body
Jennifer's Body should be something we both like, but do we? The answer is, predictably, more complicated than yes or no. Join us as we discuss catharsis, rage, and subversion, teasing out our confusion (and some rage of our own) through a healthy dose of critical theory.
Warnings: This episode is explicit and includes discussions of sexual assault. Please listen with caution if the subject matter is troubling for you.
