    Ep. 19: Momentarily Infinite (aka the Perks of Being Depressed)

    Trigger warning for the topic of suicide, mental illness, and sexual assault. Charlie is not your textbook bookworm shy guy who gets stuffed deeper into lockers than breadcrumbs in a turkey, he actually has friends (who, you know, repeatedly emotionally manipulate and use him)! This week, it’s the (nonexistent) Perks of Being a Wallflower! Listen as we discuss everything from how literally 90% of human interaction is painful to the wondrous world of early 2000s homophobia. Yeah, this one was rough. We’re here to tell you it’s okay to cry before, during, and after watching this movie, we did too.

    Ep. 18: Dead-gar Allen Poe

    Trigger warning for suicide, death, and mental illness!!! The crew from Weldon Academy, comprised of the shy one, the gay theater nerd, the hopeless romantic, the class clown, and the other three, get their lives spun up and down and around when the new English teacher, Mr. Keating, teaches them to seize the day and unclench their asses! It’s The Dead Poets Society this week, listen as we discuss everything from the symbolism of snow to the tender emotion of the poetry of a teenage boy (regardless of the quality of the work). We’re actually not here to tell you to carpe diem, that’s Robin Williams’ job.

It’s the entire HSM franchise this week, listen as we discuss everything from the offensive color palette of the second movie to the gayest song ever created, I Don’t Dance.

    Ep. 16: The Scarlet Ass

    Olive Pendergast is a snarky little nerd who, channeling her inner Madonna (specifically Human Nature), became the school ‘tramp’ even though she’s still a virgin *gasp* *faint* *applause* AND Alice is just your regular Catholic school girl...who is ready to embrace her unstoppable sex drive and sensuality, at church camp. That’s right, this week we’ve got TWO movies, the lovable classic Easy A and the Netflix Original Yes, God, Yes. We said branching out, we said compare and contrast, we said 9th grade level analysis, and we’re here to tell you to use a goddamn condom.

    Ep. 12: Snow Daze

    Honestly there are waaaay too many main characters to even begin to make a witty first sentence about any of them. So this week, it's the Netflix Original Let It Snow and man is it a weird Holiday movie. Listen as we discuss everything from gender pronouns to trashy pop music. We're here to tell you to have a Holly Jolly Christmas.
