Two best friends throw it back to the pop culture--and personal experiences--that shaped them growing up in South Brooklyn in the 80s and 90s.

    “He maintains, he’s a bumper” | Beverly Hills 90210 (1990-2000)

    This one’s worth listening to for the episode title payoff alone. Steve Sanders, we see you. We may throw around the word “formative” a lot on this pod, but damn if this show wasn’t formative as hell. From 50s/60s nostalgia to early 90s beauty standards, this is the OG Beverly Hills 90210.  *cue bodaciously dramatic guitar riff* We talk at length about Brandon Walsh being the WORST, and we finally have it out about our separate paths re: Grey’s Anatomy.  RIP Shannen Doherty and Luke Perry ❤️‍🔥 EDITED BY Sophia Betz 🎧

    “I care about them, and they ARE my friends” | Jersey Shore (2009-2012; 2018-)

    If you watch Jersey Shore ironically, please skip this episode altogether.  Thank you. EDITED BY Sophia Betz 🎧

    “Forgive, never forget” | Our 90s Teen Movie Awards

    Ruh roh, we’re getting scholarly again! What makes a 90s teen movie? We dive into a *hard* definition and the tropes of the genre–and try to anoint a 90s teen movie MVP 🏅 Plus: the gorgeous campiness of She’s All That, Kids (1995) being a horror film, Taylor Vaughan being #gayorigins, the parallels between Stifler and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, and the underrated comedic stylings of Marley Shelton. Also: high school jobs, S2 of Yellowjackets, we go off on a maaaaajor Kid-n-Play tangent, and our Leo in Basketball Diaries impression makes another appearance (sorryyyyy). EDITED BY Sophia Betz 🎧

    “And I’m the Dream Boy” | Gay Origins

    Let us take you on a journey, a wide sweeping journey of the top things in pop culture that made us feel gay. From Denise Huxtable to Rayanne Graff, these are the people, the characters, and the moments that were sexually formative for us.  Word to the wise: you don’t marry your number one.  Also: who knew Ferris Bueller’s Day Off would make both of our lists–FOR DIFFERENT REASONS?? Feast your eyes!  https://tinyurl.com/m2pp6mex EDITED BY Sophia Betz 🎧

    Join us as we find the points of connection between these two wackadoodle rap comedies from the early aughts. Has anyone ever talked about either of these films in such an elevated way? Welcome to Poppers J, y’all.  EDITED BY Sophia Betz 🎧

    "I did all my thinking at the nail salon yesterday" | The Cutting Edge (1992)

    SURPRISE, beetches! After two and a half years, we're back for another round of episodes -- because we just couldn't quit without addressing some of our all-time faves. ✨ Welcome to one of the BEST romcoms of all time, the blueprint for enemies-to-lovers fan fiction, the one we've quoted in damn near every episode of this pod: The Cutting Edge. We lament how this movie gave us the most unrealistic expectations for what adult life would look like (...if you're hosting a black tie New Year's party with a live band, let us know).  Also: The Substance, our complicated relationship with photos of ourselves, and the potency of Sabrina (1995)!!

    “That’s what you do when you’re queer and you’re upset” | The Good Son (1993)

    THIS IS IT. OUR FINAL EPISODE. You might even say, “This afternoon is my final skate.” And we did. Which led us to a 10-15 minute discussion of The Cutting Edge, which we somehow missed covering in this podcast despite it being mentioned nearly every other episode.  Then it’s onto the main event: the downright bonkerstown high camp child actor superthriller The Good Son. Which begs the inevitable question, are the heteros doomed to never appreciate films like this? And: can we talk about the name Susan? We share what this here podcast has given us both over the last three years, and what’s next for Mia and Caitlin. We love you all, and thank you for listening! (AND LISTEN ALL THE WAY TO THE END FOR AN EASTER EGG)
