Despite a slew of technical problems during the recording this week, we managed to push out this episode about an underrated Cate Blanchett classic. Lina explains how Saoirse Ronan is the next in line for the chameleon actress crown and is shocked to discover how long it's been since she's seen a Cate Blanchett movie. Najah is surprised by the lesbian content of the film and expresses their love for Jessica Barden and The End of the F***ing World. Plus, Lina recounts a memorable Bound (1996) screening with her pocketee of the week and we discuss the end of the WGA strike.

This week, Angel brings us our third-ever Friendly Favorite, and our first-ever screwball. Najah describes their instant connection to Katharine Hepburn's odd sitting poses and expresses their frustration with constantly being approached by Jesus people on the street. Meanwhile, Lina gets excited about Reese Witherspoon and Julianna Margulies separating from their husbands. Angel and Margot both come armed with music recommendations — Shania and Mitski — as well as an abundance of Old Hollywood historical facts. We talk George Cukor, debate the 1950s Best Actress race, and of course, get into the lesbian implications of Kate and Ginger as roommates in the film.

She's got a fuckass bob! This week, we discuss Jonathan Demme's witty, odd, yet real Anne Hathaway vehicle — from its random Indian wedding elements to familial trauma. We make connections to Shiva Baby and Succession, as well as discuss the viciousness of film mothers. Lina gets excited about the release of a new Anne film, Eileen, and Najah gets excited about another new Anne (and Jessica Chastain) movie. We also talk SAG/WGA strikes, disappointing news about Drew Barrymore's show, and the Ashton and Mila letter and ensuing apology video. Plus, a French gay documentary rec at the end.

We're back, baby!! This week, we cover the most anticipated movie of the summer (move aside, Barbenheimer) after a triumphant return to Boston's Coolidge Corner. We talk Gen Z comedy, Rachel Sennott's hilarious filmography, Ayo Edebiri's prolific career, and of course, the myriad of gay dynamics within the film. We celebrate our upgraded college digs, Najah raves about a music video series, Sarah makes a special appearance, and Lina lists off random facts about Ayo and Rachel that she read in an article.

In an unexpected departure from our usual format, we forgo talking about a specific movie because of a silly title mix-up (Najah watched the wrong movie). Instead, Lina and Najah are joined by Lina's friend Amirah and catch up on everything that's happened in the past few podcast-less weeks — Barbenheimer and a chemical ring rescue — discuss Amirah's media interests — Joker, The Boys, Hannibal — and take a couple "Am I Gay?" quizzes. We'll be back with our regular format next week!You can find Amirah's social justice blog here.

Oh, puppy love can be heartbreaking. It's Deborah Kerr time, bitches!! This week, we talk about one of Lina's favorite repressed actresses in a movie where all the men are gay and all the women are cunty. We cover coloring (especially in regard to THAT green dress look), The Children's Hour parallels, a bit of history, and pacing. Plus, Sarah pops in for the third time to give us some of her thoughts on Deborah's sexuality in the film, express her love for Fiona Apple and Al Bowlly, and slay one of the Deborah Kerr trivia questions. Also, Lina quizzes Sarah and Najah on Vincente Minelli's marriage to a famous star, brings up the Jasmine Savoy Brown drama (more Yellowjackets), and rages over Deborah Kerr's Oscar-losing streak.

Gugu and Gemma are changing the world one gay movie at a time! This week, we talk WWII history, English summers, color palettes, a rewatchable cry scene, how non-raunchy lesbian movies can sometimes be better than raunchy ones, and Gemma Arterton's lips. Plus, Najah walks us through their room aesthetic plan for next semester in slideshow format, Lina complains about British children, and in lieu of Trivia Time, we take a "Which lesbian drama are you" quiz together.

RELEASE THE WYLER CUT! This week, we watched another one of Lina's favorite movies — a queer classic forever cemented into the rainbow walls of history because of William Wyler, Shirley MacLaine, and Audrey Hepburn. We hate on an evil child, praise excellent blocking and framing, Lina gives a little more background on the history and context of the film's production, Najah is shocked by its lack of Oscar nominations despite its acting excellency, and we just generally freak out about HOW GREAT THIS MOVIE IS! Plus, we discuss therapy as a career, a gay TV show that not only got cancelled after one season but is also getting wiped off of the face of the internet, the second season of The Bear, and Cate Blanchett at Glastonbury.

This week, we discuss Modern Milf Charlize Theron's Oscar-winning turn in one of the most famous de-glam roles in contemporary film. We praise grimy lesbians, Lina reminisces about her gay roller skating experience, and we hate on the endless capitalist cycle that deters upward mobility. Najah and Lina also talk Emmys, Yellowjackets FYC campaigns, and Jodie Comer's glittering career possibilities.

Enter: Margot! On our second-ever Friendly Favorites episode, we talk about an underground 2014 lesbian musical recommended to us by our guest. We talk audio quality, The L Word parallels, Angela Robinson's prolific filmography, and, without fail, make a connection to Yellowjackets. Margot destroys at trivia, while Najah finally gets a Cate Blanchett question right! Lina tells stories of her adventures in Bristol, Margot of her upcoming video projects, and Najah revisits her Professor Marston thoughts.
