October 09, 2024The Joke's On Joker and Jacob Elordi

This week's stories:
Olivia Jade and Jacob Elordi dating?! Do we even care?

The Joker sequel bombs and why we need to go back to the movies IN PERSON.

Green light for the Princess Diaries 3. AKA the sequel we ACTUALLY want.

KC Chiefs WAGs get a Bravo show... could either be a HUGE win or a total flop for reality TV.

Melania Trump releases a memoir but it's probably a nothing-burger... unless?

September 25, 2024 Women in Sports and Children in Crisis
Welcome to the first (rough) episode of the Class of 2020's rebrand to Media Munch!
Since movie of the month episodes are a hit, the Class of 2020 is shifting from an introspective personal diary into a relevant pop culture and entertainment show.
In addition to Shireen's monthly movie breakdown, Shakira Depina is the newest cohost of a bi-monthly segment that is equal parts real talk and pop culture news you need to know to stay in the loop.
Let's get munchin.

September 15, 2024 Rosemary's Baby pt 2 | Movie of the Month
Here is part 2 of Shireen and I dissecting one of the most iconic thriller films of all time. We are a bit kinder in our review this time, but it's all about ~nuance~ right?
Also, big changes are coming so stay tuned!
DISCLAIMER: we do mention murder and sexual assault (again) so please take care of yourself while listening!

September 07, 2024 Rosemary's Baby pt 1 | Movie of the Month
September's MOM is Roman Polanski's breakout film Rosemary's Baby. Shireen and I really get into it so now and in the future, MOM's will be in 2 parts (listening to hour-long podcasts is sometimes hard ik ik).
This episode goes into the basic, rips apart any notion of this being a 'feminist' film, and seriously questions Rosemary's intelligence.
DISCLAIMER: We do mention sexual assault because Roman Polanski was a dick and contextualization is important. Take care of yourself while listening!

August 21, 2024 Deadpool and Wolverine | Movie of the Month
This episode is so much more than just two superheroes duking it out... and I'm not talking about Marvel heroes.
Or maybe I am? Either way, Shireen rips Hollywood to shreds and I happily tag a long for the ride as we talk about the latest Marvel movie and the sequel fatigue everyone is experiencing.
