We Are The Weirdos, Mister

I'm joined by Lacey and Jeremy to discuss my favorite film by my favorite director - Baz Luhrmann's 2001 musical Moulin Rouge! Other topics include the merits and pitfalls of movie musicals, my thoughts on the recent Broadway adaptation, and how Lacey really needs to watch Drag Race already!

"Don't go chasing shadows, Arthur."

Join Hilary, Heather and Julie as they discuss the gothic ghost story The Woman In Black (2012). We also talk about the source material, previous adaptations, bog mummies, haunted Air BnBs, and lots more!

"Being normal is not necessarily a virtue. It rather denotes a lack of courage."

Join Hilary and Lacey as they discuss 1998's Practical Magic, a feel good flick about witches, sisterhood, and the magic of love.

Watch Guillermo del Toro's 2015 gothic romance Crimson Peak with Hilary, Julie and Heather. In addition to a running commentary we discuss Edwardian fashion, research the origins of phrases, argue about bridesmaids dresses, and get the crap scared out of us by the pizza guy! 

A highlight of my recent vacation was getting shit faced with my two best friends in the world and making them watch the ridiculously campy lesbian romantic comedy But I'm a Cheerleader! We talked about everything from conversion therapy, gender identity, and the evils of capitalism... all while being hammered on White Claws and moscato.

"The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when you're uncool."

Join me and Dr. Heather Hare as we discuss the cinematic love letter to rock n' roll - Cameron Crowe's Almost Famous.

In honor of the 30th anniversary of Jim Henson's passing, Lacey and I talk all things Muppets, and how this lovely band of misfits have inspired us and brought us joy though the years. Listen to us discuss our favorite characters, favorite movies, and favorite moments, as well as the importance of the Muppets in the pantheon of queerness. 

"It's called love at first sight, you cynical bit*h." 

Julie Gadd and Heather Hare join me to discuss Baz Luhrmann's 1996 adaptation of Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet. We debate the merit of the original text, examine Luhrmann's modern take, and gush over how gotdayum beautiful everyone is. It's melodrama for the MTV generation and we can't get enough!
