Abolish the olympics & the brilliance of Miranda July's 'Kajillionaire' (2020)

On this week's installment of Sunny and Renaissance's regularly scheduled three part podcast of a submitted hot take, joint media consumption, and personalized recommendations for each other, your favorite lesbian communists exhibit their bimboism in regards to professional sports but ultimately comes to the conclusion that like capitalism, they must be abolished! Thank you to @scissorclown on Twitter for this scathing hot take. Then we rant and scream and cry and yell and stomp over the absolute wildness that is the 2020 indie drama Kajillionaire directed by Miranda July, whom we definitely think is a genius. This unconventional heist movie about family, money, survival, love, intimacy, emotional neglect, queerness and mentally ill lesbians with mommy issues....! Yeah we are a bit blown away. Finally, Sunny recommends the novel Pizza Girl by Jean Kyoung-Frazier in how it has the same weirdly hyper specific scenario x brilliant queer energy of Kajillionaire, and Renaissance recommends the campy 2004 movie D.E.B.S. directed by Angela Robinson (the director of Renaissance's favorite movie, Professor Marsten and the Wonder Woman).

Did we like Solar Power ?! + thoughts on Hasan's $2.4 million house & 'Assassination Nation' (2018)

Welcome to episode 8 of season 2 of The Lavender Menace, where your cohosts Sunny and Renaissance are finally in the same city, house, room! Our sunnaissance in St. Louis era has been documented extensively on @thelavenderpod on Twitter, our personal Twitters (@asunnybooknook & @rxnaissance), and Renaissance's Instagram @renaissancemarie, if you want to go check that out... anyways today we discuss Lorde's highly anticipated third album, Solar Power. As usual with music (re: our SOUR review episode), Renaissance is a hater and Sunny loves it. Then, we discuss a listener submitted hot take from Jules about the discourse going on with Twitter fighting about Hasan, a "socialist' internet streamer, buying a multimillion dollar house in Los Angelos, and consider the impossible future of this podcast blowing up and becoming rich. Basically, we are Hasan haters and Alexis @lexi4prez on Twitter stans. We watched Assassination Nation (2018) directed by Sam Levinson and have thoughts about the hypersexualization of teenage girlhood, American fascist violence, and the melodrama of cinema about high schoolers. Finally, for recommendations, Sunny recommends the translated book An Elderly Lady Is Up To No Good by Helene Tursten, and Renaissance recommends the movie 9 to 5 (1980) directed by Bruce Gilbert.
