    ep 54: gentrifying lisbon for love

    all roads lead to Lisbon, actually. in the 54th episode of shit talking, "gentrifying lisbon for love," pedro and marcy are joined by raquel to finally bid farewell to the After series – with "After Everything" largely taking place in Lisbon they've decided to examine the curious and growing phenomenon of romanticising (and gentrifying) the Portuguese capital by young Brits and Americans (and Hardin-hating Germans), also evident in a recent Hallmark movie, "Pinch of Portugal"

    ep 53: tessah

    stuck in Bulgarian trenches. in the 53rd episode of shit talking, "tessah", pedro and marcy are joined by logan to discuss possibly the two worst films ever made, "After We Fell" and "After Ever Happy," their abysmal attempts at storytelling and pretending that very obviously Central European landscapes are the English countryside, the shift of the series' focus from Tessa to Hardin and what it entails and they try to understand how you can include every textbook example of domestic abuse behaviour and still sell it as romance

    ep 52: the sparknotes adaptation of wuthering heights

    probably the most important franchise of the 2020s (we're being serious). in the 52nd episode of shit talking, "the sparknotes adaptation of wuthering heights," pedro and marcy take on the mammoth of bad filmmaking that is the After series – starting off with "After" and "After We Collided," they discuss the importance of the first film for mainstream media as a whole and its impact that we are only beginning to witness, marvel at the unexpected comedic genius of "After We Collided" and plead their case for why Josephine Langford has been done a little dirty in the post-After stage of her career. (no, the episode does not start in the middle of a conversation, it really just starts with marcy's rant on booktok).

    ep 51: potentially flagged for audio porn

    the only thing messier than "The Idol" is the actual entertainment industry. in the 51st episode of shit talking, "potentially flagged for audio porn," pedro and marcy discuss the truly spectacular and ambitious failure that is "The Idol" – they discuss all the things that are wrong with the show (and the graphic sex scenes aren't really one of them) and the good things that got muddled by the discourse (like Lily-Rose Depp's layered performance) and try to make sense of what this rushed, childish, inconhesive mess is trying to say about power in the industry and in intimate relationships.

    ep 50: girlies going monster mode

    there ain't nothing scarier than periods and female lust. in the 50th episode of shit talking, "girlies going monster mode," pedro and marcy celebrate Halloween with two very similar yet very different films: "Ginger Snaps" and "Raw" – they discuss sisterhood and monsterhood, the divergent approaches to the aesthetics of gore, the dangers of female desire and desirability, and how the girlies and the queers have reclaimed horror (a genre that has been theirs to begin with) – happy halloween!! be a monster!! eat flesh!!

    ep 49: nicolas "loverboy" cage

    he's been making acting CHOICES from the beginning!!! in the 49th episode of shit talking, "nicolas 'loverboy' cage" pedro and marcy take a look at three movies whose energy, style, and panache succeed at a feat that feels almost unachieveable – namely, that our boy's performance feels perfectly in place and suitable to the aesthetic tone of the piece. they look at Francis Ford Coppola's "Peggy Sue Got Married" (that could've used the tiniest minute rewrite), David Lynch's "Wild at Heart" (no notes) and "Raising Arizona" by the Coen Brothers (the first 15 minutes of which Wes Anderson took many notes from) – there's also some psychoanalysing of Taylor Swift's recent dating choices.

    ep 48: good cage gone bad

    Nicolas Cage is the only actor that has ever acted, actually. in the forty-eighth episode of shit talking, "good cage gone bad," pedro and marcy begin to consider the work of Nicolas Cage – the long-misunderstood virtuoso of acting; in this episode, they discuss "Vampire's Kiss" (the most depressing film to have ever been memed), "Face/Off" (the unexpected critical darling on the late 1990s) and "8mm" (the surprisingly critically panned exercise of restraint from perhaps the two most unhinged auteurs of cinema) as well as the fact that our boy Nic Cage might've never taken a holiday ever.

    ep 47: batboy and daddy issues

    look out, it's a grown man in kinkwear fighting drag performers!!! in the fourty-seventh episode of shit talking, "batboy and daddy issues," pedro and marcy lovingly discuss joel schumacher's kinky as f**k take on Batman in "Batman Forever" and "Batman & Robin" – from the outlandish set design to otherworldly costume choices, these two are a true feast for the eyes and a masterclass in visual storytelling, with notable podcast heros Nicole Kidman, Uma Thurman and Arnie Schwarzenegger giving it their absolute all – proving that the gayest of takes is better than chrissy nolan's brooding rendition of the man that was a little too much into bats.
