We’re closing out nunsploitation month with Jeff Baena’s underseen, raucus convent comedy. We’ll discuss its stacked cast, irreverent humor, and delightful horniness.

We'll also get very giggly even as Caitlyn delves into the history of the middle ages & the damaging effects sexual repression, and Mae gets eager for a Brie & Franco sandwich.

This week, we’re getting pervier than two horny nuns as we discuss Paul Verhoeven’s historical nunsploitation film. From masturbatory objects & self-flagellation to the ridiculousness of the catholic church & trans-masc jesus, we have zero filter.

Joined again by honorary co-host Kayte Terry, we delve deeper than Bartolomea’s hand into whatever the hell was happening in Pescia in the 17th century.
