    Pride Month #2 - You'll Get Used to It (Preview)

    This is a preview of our June 2026 bonus episode. Celebrate Pride Month with us as we watch and discuss/spoil 1931's Madchen in Uniform, a(nother) German milestone in early queer cinema. Featuring an all female cast backed by predominantly women and queer creatives, Madchen overtly lesbian and anti-authoritarian themes led to its eventual banning in Nazi Germany. Luckily, distribution abroad saved the film from being destroyed so that you, yes you, can watch it with us today.

    16th Academy Awards - We'll Always Have Podcast

    This episode spoils 1943’s nominees: In Which We Serve, The Human Comedy, The Ox-Bow Incident, The More the Merrier, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Heaven Can Wait, Watch on the Rhine, Madame Curie, The Song of Bernadette, and winner Casablanca. For the 16th Academy Awards, our nominees chiefly explore how the war impacted the lives of those at home, how communities (be they a ship's crew, Spanish guerilla fighters, or ordinary people in the heart of America) respond to violence, and the individual sacrifices required to build a better tomorrow. One clear voice in a room can change everything, whether that voice belongs to an anti-fascist resistance leader, a woman determined to better understand the world around her, or even a barely educated French peasant girl. Can any of these movies surpass one of the most beloved classics of all time? Probably not, but one of them might get way closer than expected.  Can't get enough of our yapping?

    Pride Month #1 - Why Do We Keep Making the Same Mistakes Over and Over? (Full)

    This is the full release of 2025’s June bonus episode for Pride Month and spoils the German movie Anders als die Andern ("Different from the Others", 1919), a film that challenged Germany’s anti-gay laws and feels as relevant as ever as it explores our understanding of sexuality, gender, and the harm that legal and social oppression inflicts on queer lives.

    AAPI Heritage Month #2 - It’s Still Spring Somewhere (Preview)

    For our second celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month we watched China’s 1948 film Spring in a Small Town -- an intimate movie about the interweaving lives of a family and their surprise guest trying to figure out how to navigate moving forward in a landscape where many of them can no longer envision a happy future in the aftermath of the Second Sino-Japanese War and World War 2. We love a melancholy movie. If you don't want to wait a year before listening to our full bonus episodes, support us on patreon and get access to monthly bonus content.

    AAPI Heritage Month #1 - What Made Us Watch It? (Full)

    This is the full release of 2025’s May bonus celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, where we watched the 1930 Japanese film What Made Her Do It? -- a movie that takes the concept: “life is suffering and then you die” to the next level. But who's to say that you can't choose how you go out? If you don't want to wait an entire year before listening to our full bonus episodes, consider supporting us on patreon

    Animation History #1 - The Fairest of All Time (Preview)

    This episode spoils 1937's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Join us alongside a special guest as we discuss the movie that birthed a dynasty (of princesses). Snow White convinced Hollywood that animation was a viable medium for full length movies and propelled Disney animation and similar studios into a golden age of animation. Heigh-ho!

    15th Academy Awards - The Stiffest of Upper Lips

    This episode spoils 1942’s nominees 49th Parallel, King's Row, Yankee Doodle Dandy, The Magnificent Ambersons, The Pride of the Yankees, The Talk of the Town, The Pied Piper, Wake Island, Random Harvest, and winner Mrs. Miniver. America officially joins World War 2 which means Hollywood officially endorses it. This year's movies universally deal with the question of being steadfast and determined in a time of stress or change (for better or worse). Yes, there's a lot of rugged patriotism on display. Yes, there's a lot of talk about ethics and justice. Yes, checks notes, Ronald Reagan is here??

    Chrysantha’s Choice - Misery Loves Company (Full)

    This is the full release of 2025’s April bonus and spoils the movie Misery (1990). For our April bonus, we let Chrysantha pick a birthday movie. What better than a feel good movie about a writer connecting with his number one fan?
