This week on Nip/Talk, we're continuing our miniseries on Ryan Murphy's feature length efforts (leading up to the release of The Prom) with Eat, Pray, Love. In this episode, we discuss everything from the sheer amount of product tie ins to promote this film to what it would look like if it was made in the post Instagram era, all while going quietly insane after having watched this boring epic.

With Ryan Murphy's latest feature directorial effort The Prom coming next month, we've decided to go back through his big screen filmography, starting with his non-existent Oscar baiting debut Running with Scissors. Our apologies to guest Nathan Osborne, who we made sit through this thing.

This week, Alistair and Lewis are joined by The Independent's chief film critic Clarisse Loughrey as they start their deep dive into American Horror Story with 2011's Murder House. The gang discuss everything from depicting school shootings in media to the power of butts, so strap in.

This week Alistair and Lewis head into the Murphy back catalogue for the first time, to the show that put him on the map: Nip/Tuck. A sensation when it aired, the show has largely been forgotten, but remains a fascinating blueprint for the genre we now call "Ryan Murphy".

In this episode we discuss Lewis watching this when he was 10 years old, many of its dated plot lines, and of course, the three episode self circumcision story arc.

This week, Alistair and Lewis get to sit back and relax as they're joined by Kyle Turner and Jack King, who have a LOT of thoughts on the Netflix adaptation of The Boys in the Band. But does this faithful remake have any reason to exist? Is Zachary Quinto too attractive for his role? And has Ryan Murphy been critically redeemed after his recent Netflix efforts? We discuss all this and more.

On this week's Nip/Talk, freelance film and TV writer Amy West joins Alistair and Lewis to discuss the conclusion to season one of Ratched. But where can the second season go from here? Is the first season a little bit problematic? And is Alistair's insane theory about a season 2 plot twist going to get him a job in Ryan Murphy's writer's room? We discuss all this and more.

In the first episode of Nip/Talk, Lewis and Alistair discuss Ryan Murphy's latest Netflix series Ratched. But did anybody want this One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest prequel? Does this even make sense as an origin story? And would Mildred Ratched be into BDSM? In the first episode of a two part special, we try to answer this and more.
