The Queer Quadrant

Jordan and Brooke are joined by past guest and friend of the pod Arden Jurskis to discuss 2004's extremely progressive (and extremely violent) gender-based slasher. Listen in as Brooke geeks out over "Bound" references, Jordan comes to terms with his fear of Chucky dolls, and Arden gives their manifesto on the enduring queerness of this franchise. Also, Chucky tramp stamp incoming?

Jordan and Brooke are joined by comedian Avery Edison to discuss 1991's seminal horror. They talk the complicated legacy of this film and how it affected future on-screen representation, attempt some Dr. Lecter impressions, and prove (once again) why NBC Hannibal is the best show to ever grace our airwaves.

On the weekend of its release, Jordan and Brooke let the symbiotes in and discuss this actually amazing sequel – including Tom Hardy's "story by" credit, Woddy Harrelson's hair choices, favorite breakup movies, and Venom's coming out party (no, really).

Jordan and Brooke dig into the greatest romantic comedy of our time, a story of worlds colliding, of enemies to lovers...they're talking, of course, about 2018's "Venom!" They discuss the wild fandom that's sprung up around this movie, Tom Hardy's total commitment, Venom's history on-screen (certified queer icon?), and some "Best Kiss" selects from the MTV Movie Awards.

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Sloane Steele and Zach Mellen (Mummy Dearest) to discuss 1997's satirical cult classic. This episode has everything: plenty of Verhoeven praise, analysis of military propaganda, co-ed shower scene thirst, and a riveting discussion on bug slime.

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Emma Stefansky (Thrillist) to discuss 2010's dream heist! They dig into the rich tradition of fan fiction (which Jordan will be converted to one day), what they'd use for a dream totem, the beauty of practical effects, and why Tom Hardy might actually be too sexy to lead a film.

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Rachel LaBonte (ScreenRant) to discuss 2014's awards-y biopic. How deranged were the 2015 Oscars? Did the Cumberbitches (Cumberbatch fans) turn out for this film? What is the definitive best Keira Knightley roles? And will Brooke ever get through an episode without invoking Tumblr?

Jordan and Brooke are joined by director and film critic Noah Levine to discuss 1987's cult classic. There's a lot to cover, including the breakdown of the American nuclear family, leather and earring politics, Chinese food, and what monster is actually, historically, the sexiest. Plus, the politics of glittery vampires...is there plagiarism at play?

Jordan and Brooke are joined by culture writer Marya E. Gates to discuss 1959's game-changing Biblical epic (in which the Bible is like...a C plot?). They talk cast! Budget! Epic production! As well as some super shady drama including screenwriter Gore Vidal reading Charlton Heston for filth in the press, obvious gay subtext that miraculously flew under the ratings radar, and one truly insane chariot sequence.

Jordan and Brooke are joined by film writer Iana Murray to discuss 2010's masterclass in filmmaking, "The Social Network!" They unpack how this is secretly one of our best break-up movies, how great it is when talented people make films together, 2011 Oscars highs and lows, Andrew Garfield love, and the career of Jessica Chastain (for some reason).
