Pull that gravy-soaked cafeteria meat patty out of your pocket and get ready for a cannibalistic coming-of-age tale because we're doing a deep dive into Julia Ducournau's debut film Raw! Joining us for the discussion is film critic Dede Crimmins (just in time for her birthday today!).

Tag along as we endure what looks like one of the most intense and horrific hazing rituals ever put on film before lamenting the film's unfortunate vomit bag festival buzz that no doubt set up unrealistic expectations for viewers. We'll then pick apart the many, many metaphors contained within the film.

We'll also share a plethora of anecdotes, including but not limited to: bedbug experiences, public urination, hair-chewing, mirror-fucking, bikini waxes and Ducournau's secret trick to directing a dance scene

Plus, are the parents in the film the worst film parents ever? Is 7-Eleven pizza secretly amazing? And does Trace hate women? Tune in and find out!
