February 06, 2026 Hamilton with Alison Sivitz
Lib out with us and Alison Sivitz (the ever iconic Bald Ann Dowd) as we discuss Obama-era hopecore, being obsessed with your generational hater, actual historic love letters between Hamilton and his pal Laurens, and if we were too mean online to Lin-Manual Miranda. Also, Brooke scars everyone with her knowledge of the Hamilton fandom.

January 23, 2026 This Means War with Emma Stefansky
Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by writer Emma Stefansky for a treatise on all love triangles. Why doesn't everybody throuple? What is a throuple, thematically? Can 2012 Tom Hardy call us, please?? Plus, the film's 15+ years in development, exactly what kind of spies we're meant to be seeing here, violations of privacy justified by the Patriot Act, and McG's auteur streak.

December 05, 2025 Wicked: For Good
Well! We all know Act 2 of Wicked is a tough one! But at least we have EVEN MORE DOOMED yuri. Return to Oz as we discuss new original songs, lack of choreography, lack of sheer horniness, and lack of practical effects. But there is no lack of longing looks and rainbow-tinged wedding allegories. Gelphie forever!

October 10, 2025 The Nice Guys with Liz Hannah
Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by writer Liz Hannah (THE GIRL FROM PLAINVILLE, MINDHUNTER, etc.) for a long overdue episode. WE ALL LOVE THIS MOVIE! Jordan and Brooke even did this costume for Halloween in 2019. We talk spit-takes, physical comedy, high-pitched screaming, the constantly corrupt underbelly of LA, general bad things happening in the world, and Ryan Gosling's excellent relationship with on-screen masculinity. Plus, two dudes co-parenting a precocious teenager and learning to care for each other in the process.
