    "The Birds"

    We're keeping spooky season going with 1963 thriller, The Birds. Directed by the "master of suspense" Alfred Hitchcock, this film is an early look into man vs beast: the clash between humans and the natural world. As this rift has gotten wider, does the film become all the more relatable? In this episode we simplify the 2 hour film, go into the fascinating production details, and briefly touch on Hitchcock's influence on film. Spoiler alert: misogyny and allegations of abuse are present.

    "Rumours"

    The rumours are true...Uncultured Twenties is back! In this series opener, Lian and Julia discuss the heart-breakingly honest album Rumours by Fleetwood Mac. Go into any analog fanatic's collection, and you'll be sure to find this vinyl from 1977. From being inducted to the Grammy Hall of Fame to Bill Clinton's presidential campaign soundtrack to inspiring Emmy-nominated miniseries Daisy Jone & the Six, the album is reflected in multiple decades of pop culture. With fans still hypothesizing the relationships between the members, it's no wonder Rumours has intrigued generations. Sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll at it's finest! We’re excited to be back on a less-than-regular schedule. Just like Fleetwood Mac, we’re turbulent. Not in a romantic way, but more in a life-is-crazy-help-us kind of way. And we love each other through it!

    "Moulin Rouge!"

    Moulin Rouge! is an unexpected take on the stage, contrasting modern cinematic techniques and song compilations against Paris in the turn of the century. With references to Madonna, La bohème, Orpheus and Eurydice, Moulin Rouge! led the way for early aughts musicals. It's inspired Mr. Brightside, the Muppets Christmas Movie and Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir's gold medal winning routine in the 2018 Winter Olympics. Moulin Rouge! won two Academy Awards and ranked 53rd on BBC's 100 greatest films of the 21st century. It was also adapted to a stage musical in 2018. Thank you Hala for requesting this episode!

    Brown Sugar has everything a classic rom-com needs: friends to lovers, slow burn, miscommunication and a wedding mishap! Think 13 Going On 30 meets Love & Basketball. The cast is full heavy hitters and recognizable faces, while giving us tons of laughs. It's a lovely portrayal of Black love on screen that tests your knowledge of New York hip-hop.

    The Rose ft. Brenessa Roach

    Korean pop has become an international phenomenon through groups like BTS, Blackpink and TWICE. The genre has crossed cultural and language barriers through impressive social media presence and online fan culture. However, this isn't all Korea has to offer. Behind The Beat's Brenessa Roach is here to show us the wealth of diversity Korean music has to offer though one of her favourite bands: The Rose. The Rose won “Most Promising Artist” in the International K-music Awards in 2018, performed at Lollapalooza and Coachella, and toured North America, Asia and Europe in 2023. Brenessa tells us about her experience photographing them, and why she thinks The Rose should become a house-hold name!
