34 - Grease

WARNING: this podcast episode is automatic... it's systematic... it's hyyyyyyydromatic... Why, it's Grease Lightning!
YES, we've finally tackled the most iconic teen movie that's not actually a teen movie, that stars exclusively middle-aged actors and where the concept of time is just not a thing. If you've ever caught yourself idly wondering 'I wonder what Heather's favourite Grease song is?' or 'I wonder which one of the T-Birds Jemma fancies most?' then this is the episode for you. We also grapple with the age-old question: why does EVERYONE (including us) still love Grease, despite it being problematic af? Join us in the search for answers.

36 - The Kissing Booth

OK, we've found it: the worst teen movie on Netflix. Worse than SPF-18, you say? Worse than To All The Boys I've Loved Before 2: PS I Still Love Boys???
Yep, The Kissing Booth is a car crash. From the extremely cringey dialogue that makes it seem like the script was a collaboration between a 12 year old and a middle aged man, to the creepy, young Christian Grey-esque character of Noah Flynn, this film leaves no stone unturned in its deranged mission to make toxic masculinity sexy.
