Today on the podcast we're breaking down the 2020 film "Promising Young Woman" directed by Emerald Fennell. "Promising Young Woman" follows Cassie, a former medical student who now spends her nights going to clubs and pretending to be blackout drunk. She does this to lure creepy guys who intend on taking advantage of her, only to reveal that she was sober the entire time. Watch as we dive into Cassie's past and look at the justice system that seems to care more about protecting the reputations of young men than protecting the lives of young women.
