  • 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.

  • WALL-E

    It's a new year, so here's some new hope for the future! Join us to discuss how we automatically assign gender to robots, curiosity as humanity, discovering what you were made for, religion, environmentalism, and this movie's prediction of iPad kids.

  • 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!

  • Fried Green Tomatoes with David Canfield

    Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by writer and critic David Canfield (The Hollywood Reporter) for a realllll Southern charmer. We discuss the director wanting to stay "out of the bedroom" in this adaptation (whatever that means), how gay you can get without confirming it's gay, food as intimacy, surprise cannibalism, and queer icon Kathy Bates. TUWANDA!

  • Scream (1996) with Phil Tice

    Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by author & writer Phil Tice for the 1996 classic to rule them all. We discuss the Wes Craven/Kevin Williamson creative power couple, the razor-sharp balance of tropes to scares, Gale's fashion sense, Ghostface always being hot, andddd you can probably guess what we have to say about Billy & Stu. Also, this is our 200th episode! Wow!

  • 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.

  • The Rules of Attraction with Horror Queers

    Jordan and Brooke are re-joined by Trace Thurman and Joe Lipsett (Horror Queers) for a very chill and normal Bret Easton Ellis adaptation. We talk the YA to adult acting pipeline, if this movie knows what it knows, ya know? (we don't know), the soundtrack, formative dancing to George Michael, and one very memorable Europe montage.

  • Mean Girls with Soraya Sebghati

    Jordan and Brooke are joined by writer and singer/songwriter Soraya Sebghati to make fetch happen. We rattle off as many quotes as we can, lament the lack of an Oscar nom here for Best Costume Design, figure out if kids are still mean to each other (yes), talk as little as possible about the musical remake, and push the "Regina George is a lesbian" agenda (true).
