Drop Dead Gorgeous (with Jennifer Lo)
Practice your best Minnesota accent with us this week, as Jen Lo joins us to discuss the cult classic Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999). We dig in to the near-perfect small town specificity, all-star cast, and deep cringe of this incredible film. Other important topics discussed include: the film's critical failure, the rampant fatphobia of the 1990s, Kirsten Dunst's icon status, and hotels with the pool in the middle.
Thanks so much to Jen for joining us this week!

Josie & the Pussycats (with Jane Campbell)
Matinée means family. Matinée means seatbelts. And Tuesday means a new episode!
This week, Jane Campbell joins us as we dive headfirst into the satirical girl group comedy Josie and the Pussycats (2001). We debate the validity of the film's cynical take on consumerism, the "child gaze" (a term coined by jane during the episode), and how making a girly film in Hollywood will get you NOWHERE! Plus: who would each of us be in the band? Is Alan M hot or just a noodle in flip flops? This is the only place for those answers!
thanks so much to jane for joining us to to laugh, scream & sing "Three Small Words".
