Join us for the first in a series of episodes examining the programming for the 56th Chicago International Film Festival. First on our list is Iranian psycho-drama-thriller Careless Crime, a fictional time-loop narrative meditating on the Cinema Rex fire of 1978 and how it changed Iran and the world.

We shittalk Netflix, the cops, Logan Paul fans, and plenty more in this, our potentially most bummer episode yet. Enjoy!

Independent movies! We love 'em. CAN'T get enough of 'em. This week, we've got two films about inequality and the social panopticon. First up is Miss Juneteenth (2019), a legitimately sweet and charming mother-daughter dramedy with deep emotional resonance. Then, we look at the delightfully absurd Tito (2019) and ruminate on bizarre male friendship rituals. Movies!

Three movies?! That's too damn many movies!!!! Since we're in quarantine anyway, we've taken it upon ourselves to shovel as many movies as possible down our gullets and talk about them until we're delirious (from heat stroke). This week, we've got the family coming-of-age horror Relic, the weird, cosmically unsettling vibes of The Beach House and the much-talked-about zoom-call-based horror of Host. Lots of fun to be had!!!!

Murder. Death. Koreatown. What do these three things have in common? They are all in....the name........of a movie.....which we watched. We take a look at a found footage artifact from the "deep" "internet" and discuss narcissistic obsession, the process of othering, and which types of garages are safe to break into in the dead of night. Watch out!!
