"Ever since I was a little boy, I've dreamed of being the final girl"

On today's episode, we're kicking off July with covering films that take place at a summer camp, and I thought why not pull up on this fun little horror comedy, The Final Girls!!

This movie has everything... Flashbacks! Weird mid-2010s CGI! Malin Fucking Akerman, goddamn it.

"Is everybody gay!!!"

We're starting off Pride Month with an all-time gay classic, In & Out (1997). This movie has a nice little place in my heart, and I think it has so much to dig into, so be sure to tune into this episode to hear me gab about this littlest piece of heaven.

Aging stardom, delusion, ambition, and the ruthless machinery of Hollywood collide in Billy Wilder’s Sunset Blvd, one of cinema’s most haunting masterpieces. In this episode, me and my guest Beau, dive deep into the shadowy world of Norma Desmond — the forgotten silent‑film icon whose hunger for relevance spirals into obsession — and Joe Gillis, the struggling screenwriter who becomes trapped in her gilded cage. We also talk about all sorts of other stuff, too!

On today's episode, we dive into David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive — the cult‑cinema cornerstone that turned Naomi Watts into a star, gave us the unforgettable Club Silencio moment, and rewired how pop culture talks about identity, fame, and the dark side of Los Angeles dreams.

We unpack the film’s iconic scenes, its influence on everything from prestige TV to internet fan theories, and why it remains the ultimate “you have to see it twice” movie. Whether you’re a Lynch diehard or a confused first‑timer, this episode breaks down the mystery with style, humor, and a little Hollywood chaos.

On today's episode, we're finishing up April and bringing a close to our coverage of REVENGE movies on the pod, by covering one of the best revenge movies out there that only takes place in one location and stress everyone the fuck out; we're putting on our obligatory red sweatshirt and torturing a rapist as we cover Hard Candy (2005). Joining me for today's conversation is actress, writer and podcaster Amanda Jane Stern!

We go all over the place for this episode, but me and Amanda had a wonderful conversation all about this wonderful movie and just how important it is to this specific genre. You don't wanna miss this one.

On a bonus episode of the show, I talk to actress, director and podcaster Amanda Jane Stern all about her movie Perfectly Good Moment (2023). We talk about the influences on this film, the process of getting this film off the ground, and just how much it means to Amanda as a female creative. We had a great conversation, and I hope you enjoy it.

On today's episode, in observance of April being Sexual Assault Awareness Month, we're covering REVENGE movies on the podcast, and this one is a fucking banger! We're heading to the gritty New York streets and shooting fuckers up in our long, black coat as we visit the revenge film, Ms. .45 (1981).

We discuss the careers of some of the cast and crew of the movie and a WHOLE lot about our titular character of Thana. You don't wanna miss this one!
