November 20, 2020 All About Eve
This week, Jordan and Brooke talk…all about Eve!! But what about her?? Is she a venomous fishwife or just a repressed ingenue looking for some love? How many insults (and awards) did this film pack in? What does a rehash of the 1951 Oscars look like? And do all theater people really hate Hollywood that much?

November 06, 2020 The Old Guard
Grab your battle-axe (and some popcorn) – it’s a contentious ep as Jordan and Brooke feud over Gina Prince-Bythewood’s 2020 Netflix release. How would this movie have done in a theater instead of on your TV? Are Joe and Nicky the definition of relationship goals? How far are the hosts really willing to go for the cinematic experience? And will their friendship survive this recording??

October 23, 2020 The Talented Mr. Ripley with Sebastian
This episode, Jordan and Brooke are joined by guest Sebastian to talk 1999’s star-studded psychological thriller. They fawn over a gorgeous cast, an impeccable script, stunning cinematography, the beauty of Southern Italy…and Jordan also tries to sell the worst bit in history.

October 21, 2020 Rebecca (2020)
On the week of its release, Jordan and Brooke talk the 2020 remake of “Rebecca,” stumbling through mustard suits, alternate casting choices, dream jobs, and gay erasure (gay-rasure?).

October 16, 2020 Rebecca (1940)
Ahead of the 2020 Netflix remake, Jordan and Brooke discuss the original “Rebecca,” Alfred Hitchcock’s first American film and his only Best Picture winner. They dare to ask – has Hollywood changed all that much since the 40s? Why did the Hays Code (the Gays Code) get all up in this script? And did Maxim de Winter actually discover how to get away with murder?

October 09, 2020 Stick It
This week, Jordan and Brooke talk Jessica Bendinger’s 2006 gymnastic-tastic movie, which includes delightful elements like wholesome Jeff Bridges, trippy kaleidoscope cinematography, quips for days, and (most importantly) Missy Peregrym’s abs.

October 02, 2020 Love, Simon
Jordan and Brooke enter rom-com land with 2018’s landmark teen flick. They break down tropes of this book to film adaptation, personal coming out experiences, the gay culture of iced coffee, and, obviously, the invention of the comma.

September 25, 2020 Chicago
This episode, Jordan and Brooke celebrate jazz, liquor, and crime with 2003’s catchy Oscar darling. Listen along as they talk the history of movie musicals, the importance of snappy editing, and the inherent sexiness of thigh garters.
