After a brief delay due to a technical issue, the podcast is back! We're starting Twilight Month talking about Robert Pattinson, my appreciation for him as an actor, my breakdown and analysis of The Lighthouse and how others have received it, and talking about my favorite Superhero movie of all time, The Batman.

We're back with another episode of Adaptation Good or Adaptation Bad?! Hayley had suggested two different books to cover for Pride and we decided to cover both! In this episode, we also discuss out thoughts on Robert Downey Jr. as Dr. Doom, Hayley's thoughts after finally seeing Longlegs, weirdly, the Love, Victor tv show, and largely how our opinions on this book and movie had really di...

Welcome to the main event of Barbenheimer Month of the podcast! This was a fun episode where Hayley joined and we talked about our theatrical experience with Barbenheimer, its impact, what we think of Barbie as a feminist film, and the shock of experiencing Oppenheimer.

This week, we are continuing Barbenheimer Month and speaking about two films from Christopher Nolan, The Prestige and Tenet! Also in this episode, I briefly share my non-spoiler thoughts about Longlegs, speak about seeing The Big Chill, talk about my lack of awareness for television, talk about beginning to collect Criterion Collection films, my thoughts on the sound mix of Tenet, going to the the...

Join Hayley and I for the first episode of Adaptation Good or Adaptation Bad?, where Hayley and I look at a book and one of its film adaptations, in order to assess and compare the two and wonder if the film succeeds as an adaptation. Today, we are talking about the queer book and film, Red, White, and Royal Blue! If you want to submit a movie recommendation, please fill out this Google Form ! And...

Back with another episode of the podcast for Pride! This week, I wanted to look at my favorite genre, horror, and examine how its existed through queering, with one example being explicitly queer and the other an example of queer-coding. Both movies are favorites of mine and while one is beginning to receive respect, the other deserves more! If you want to submit a movie recommendation, please fil...

Time for the second episode of Pride! Although both of these films are new, Rachel Sennott have made such an impression on me with two wildly different films, that they felt perfect to have featured on this newest episode of the podcast with Shiva Baby and Bottoms! Please enjoy! If you want to submit a movie recommendation, please fill out this Google Form ! And for 3 dollars a month, you can supp...

Welcome everyone to the first episode of Pride for 2024! While only one of these films is queer, both were made by queer directors, both are favorites of mine, and obviously, while this is a heavier episode than typical for the podcast, I do think it was important to cover both movies. Please enjoy this episode, and stay tuned for the rest of the Pride episodes of the podcast as we transition epis...

At the beginning of May, I got the opportunity to attend the 25th Maryland Film Festival after the festival being gone last year and I got to see some really amazing films that previously played at Sundance, SXSW, and Fantastic Fest, and some of them have release scheduled planned, have distribution, and some need to find a home so you can all watch them! *Apologies for the audio issue that happen...

Back after a brief hiatus with a long promised episode that I have avoided making, but in the recording process and the edit, but for those who have asked, we are talking about Elvis! And spoilers, I still think Elvis is fine! If you want to submit a movie recommendation, please fill out this Google Form ! And for 3 dollars a month, you can support the podcast on Patreon!

Welcome everyone to easily my favorite episode of the podcast so far, as I talk about one of the most formative films of my younger years and a film that profoundly changed my life by helping me dive into the work of one of my favorite directors. It was impossible to cut any of the audio speaking about my love of The Muppets, Jim Henson, Twin Peaks, or David Lynch! Please enjoy this episode and ag...

Hello everyone, thank you for joining me for a more somber episode as we examine the life and death of Lydia Tár and one of her proudest contributions to the world of film, creating the score for the Monster Hunter movie, and talk about her mediocre, Oscar-bait, fear-mongering biopic, Tár. Please be kind as we share about her life. *I appreciate everyone's willingness to let me joke just a bi...

We are back with the second Listener's Pick episode of the podcast! Thankfully, I had seen both of these films and was able to revisit them both in time for the podcast, and if you have ever wanted to hear me openly wonder if a film was extremely feminist or falling victim to the male gaze, question if Jack Nicholson could pull Cher, Susan Sarandon, and Michelle Pfieffer all at once with them...

By far the quickest an episode has gone from recording to being uploaded, this is the Oscars recap episode. I speak in this episode about how I made some of my predictions, the predictable nature of the Oscars, if that will continue, the musical performances, the atrocity that is Jimmy Kimmel's standup routine, The Boy and the Heron, The Zone of Interest, and Lily Gladstone's sad loss. I...

What better time to listen to a Valentine's Day episode of the podcast then *checks notes* two weeks late and in March! But seriously, thank you all of course for the flexibility in this episode, this was the second go-around recording due to tech issues the first time and it came out wonderful! And of course, thank you to Hayley for joining us this episode and you can expect Hayley as a regu...

Two of my favorites and also for a long time, two films only available through 360p copies on Youtube. I also give some extended thoughts on my time at the Virtual Sundance Festival, some of my favorite films, technical issues that plagued my experience, and then jumped into these two really amazing and under seen queer films! There is a balance between these two movies, one is extremely calm and...

This episode started largely as a meme, but I had lots of fun with it! It's cool to pay tribute to an actor who has deserved a lot more credit in his career through two films that sit in similar themes and are both sports films. I had many more hot takes about High School Musical than I was expecting, especially about the performances and the music. I really hope you all love this episode, be...

Welcome everyone to the first episode of the podcast for the year and for this episode, I wanted to talk about the great work of one of the companies that has supported me the most in the previous year, A24! Overall, I recommend many of these films and I think I do a great job of giving a little bit of an idea for each, as well as ones I may not recommend as highly. I do want to note, I keep sayin...

Deeply apologize for the delay everyone, I have a cat who just recently had surgery and is now recovering. Even if you don't celebrate Christmas and even though it is after the fact, Spencer and Tangerine are lovely films for any time of the year. I speak about them enough this episode, but thank you all for this wild year, and see you for the A24 episode in 2 weeks! If you want to submit a m...

Welcome back everyone! I accidentally picked two A24 films this week that are some of the most emotionally devastating films I could have covered for the podcast today, whoops! Both of these films are some of my favorites of all time and they are also unique because of their focus on the perspectives of children, a viewpoint that's often trivialized in scriptwriting and one that is rarely the...

Welcome back everyone, this is easily my favorite episode that I have ever done for the podcast! To talk about two more recent films, one an upcoming awards season contender, another a film that deserved so much more credit during the last awards season. Decision To Leave is one of my favorite films of all time and it is shocking a film from a legend like Park Chan-wook is so underwatched and as A...

Welcome to the second of our two horror-themed episodes for Halloween (it's November now, but shhhhhh)!  It's weird to have found two kaiju films both centered around the existence of a poor and disorganized government, but I am glad Shin Godzilla and The Host are those two films. Also, weird this is the second podcast episode I have done about a film called The Host. There are only mino...
