Still Buffering

This week we're discussing the cross-generational favorite, They Might Be Giants. Whether teaching you geography or about the dangers of capitalism and conformity, it's nice to have a band the whole family can enjoy! Completely unrelated, don't put 600 pound 2 legged tables in your restaurant.      Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas Help support this show and unlock bonus content! Bec...

This week we're joined by two very special, spoiler free guests, as we discuss the new hit K-Pop Demon Hunters. Fighting! Magic! Romance! Birds in little hats they stole from mythical tigers! We're discussing a film that really does have it all.    Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas Help support this show and unlock bonus content!

It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's a podcast! (That's actually three very weird things to confuse, are you good?) Anyway, we make the jump from John Waters to the Man of Steel this week, as we discuss the new Superman movie, and whether or not Clark Kent is the punkest guy around.  Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas Help support this show and unlock bonus content!

We have a final entry into our little mini-series on the iconic John Waters, with his murderous matron of mayhem, Serial Mom. Join us as we discuss this dark comedy, that's sort of like Dexter, if Dexter made really good meatloaf.

This week we begin a mini-series on the Pope of Trash himself, John Waters. First up, the shocking Pink Flamingos. Look, I could list all the triggers in this film, but um, if you can think of something that may offend or defile you, it's there. Buyer Beware. Join us as we ponder the question; is there some freeing divinity to be found through extreme cinema? Who knows, but there's certainly Divin...

This week, we're back on the road with another iconic piece of queer cinema. If I had a nickel every time someone made a movie about three drag queens road tripping together and discovering important truths along the way, I'd have two nickels, and frankly I'd happily have more.    Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas Help support this show and unlock bonus content!

Happy...Pride? Ok we didn't really think through having the Minecraft movie be our first offering for the month of gay, but there is a non-zero amount of dudely 69'ing in this film so you know what? We're good. And weirdly so is the movie. Do we fully understand the allure of a chicken jockey? Maybe not, but join us anyway!   Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas Help support this show a...

It's summer vacation! Perfect time to hide behind your couch from awkward scenarios playing out on your tv. This week we watched the much discussed The Rehearsal, and give our 2 cents.

What more can we say...? I mean, enough for a podcast episode. This week we're discussing the MF'ing Princess herself, Avril Lavigne. Punk or poseur, she dominated our youth and earned her props. And also ABSOLUTELY wasn't replaced by a clone.    Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas Help support this show and unlock bonus content!

We got a new pope the same week we're talking about a movie about a new pope! Divine intervention? Definitely. Absolutely. Better listen. God said so.

And why did we all grow up to be Hims, Seduca's, and Fuzzy Lumpkins? Join us as we contemplate this and more on this weeks Still Buffering.   Musi...

This week on Still Buffering we're sating our hunger for new Hunger Games content by watching the 2023 series installment, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.

Times are strange, and it's doubtful they'll get any less strange any time soon. So the siblings are looking towards the one and only Kurt Vonnegut for some guidance by reading his unfortunately still so topical classic: Mother Night. We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.    URL: Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas Help support this show and u...
