This week, Kate and Brodie dish up a buffet of recent TV recommendations, including I Love That For You, Queer as Folk, Only Murders in the Building and Stranger Things. They draw essential links to the satanic panic and The Dead Don't Die – which unfortunately means you're subjected to another frenzied update from Austin Butler's oeuvre. Lean into it.

This week, Kate and Brodie are discussing the recent HBO documentary feature The Janes (streaming on HBO in the US / Binge in Australia), an especially relevant story in light of the recent Supreme Court decision on Roe v Wade. They fuel their rage over the stripping away of reproductive rights into this episode, and chat about unhelpful reactions from smug Australians and second-wavers, and ways we can turn our helplessness into action.

Also: Baz Luhrmann's Elvis.

This week, Kate and Brodie are absolute pissy bitches. We're blaming the moon for our problems, and the only solution is to talk about all the TV we've been watching lately, okay?

Then, we dig into the state of rom-coms. Covering contemporary ones that fuck with the genre, past ones we might've missed and some bright spots in the genre.

It's a recommendation-heavy ep, babe. This week, Kate and Brodie are talking periods and dramas, specifically the ruffles and corsets that typify their presence on our screens.

Do we do Bridgerton?

Do we remember anything that happened in Downton Abbey?

Do we want to watch any period drama about straight people?

The answer to all three is the same!
