Put It On The List

I know now why you podcast, but it's something I can never do. This week, EV decided to take the rest of the girls back to the well and drink deep on the T-1000's CapriSun fluids with 1991's Terminator 2: Judgment Day . Unsurprisingly, it's difficult to cover a piece of media as totemic as this in pop culture, but the girls scramble their way through the conversation somehow. Join Bridget, EV, Bri...

There aren't really any quotes from this movie that I can cheekily edit to be about podcasts, so I'm just gonna go in raw. In this episode, Bridget had the rest of the girls watch Mac And Me , an E.T.-sploitation movie that is drenched in ideology and cigar-chomping fat cat decision-making. It's primarily known as the movie with a clip that Paul Rudd always slips into his interviews with Conan O'B...

Life is a podcast, ol' chum! Jae felt like the rest of the girls needed an escape from their everyday troubles, so she decided to take them on a trip through 1972's Cabaret . A delightful musical at times, a textured character drama in others, and a dread-inducing piece on how escaping through art will not free you from your material conditions all throughout, Cabaret is a multifaceted film that j...

And now...a podcast dedicated to the lovely ladies...of the Left. In this week's episode, Bri chose to inflict the most boring violence imaginable on the rest of the girls by having them watch 1987's Ishtar . Primarily remembered for being a box office flop, this movie is a bizarre amalgamation of failures from production, casting, and conceptual standpoints that results in a remarkably dull viewi...

Never give up, never podcast! In this episode, EV choose to blodly take the rest of the girls where many movie disucssions have gone before: 1999's Galaxy Quest . This sci-fi comedy, serving as a meta-commentary on the value of nerd culture, has had a cult following since it's release and the girls spend this conversation talking about how that commentary has aged, in addition to, y'know, all the...

I never considered what would come after podcasting. This episode, Bridget decided to play God by having the rest of the girls watch Guillermo del Toro's recent Frankenstein adaptation. Although divisive in it's execution, it's impossible to deny the artistry and passion on display over the film's runtime. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss the Romantic movement, ableist ideology, and...

Just don't make me think; post it! It was only a matter of time before Jae picked an absolutely miserable movie to subject the rest of the girls too, but she's not alone in finding reverie in Ari Aster's Eddington , as the crew is willfully joined by Friends From The Internet's Zoe! Is it an irresponsible piece of cinema? Does it try to do "both-sides"-ism? Is it just another meditation on the str...

She's just podcasting, it's not that impressive. With the first step of Project Mellon out of the way, Bri decided to serve in a wildly different direction and have the rest of the girls watch Jennifer's Body . Despite being advertised at the time as another "Megan Fox is so hot" boner comedy, the director/writer combo of Karyn Kusama and Diablo Cody produced what is now considered a queer cult cl...

One podcast to rule them all. In this week's episode, EV finally pulled the trigger on Project Mellon and the rest of the girls watch the first entry in Peter Jackson's totemic adaption of The Lord of the Rings . It goes without saying these films left a massive imprint of blockbusters in the 21st century, but do they hold any weight beyond their pop culture appeal? Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae...

I know an outcome that makes everyone miserable...and it's this podcast! As usual, Bridget brought the rest of the girls back to the world of anime, this time with the compilation film, Kizumonogatari: Koyomi Vamp . Stitching together three films, which were adapting the first part of a lengthy light novel series, Koyomi Vamp tries to tell the story of Araragi and his vampire compadre, Kiss-Shot A...

Parting is such sweet sorrow that I shall podcast till it be morrow. In this episode, Jae decided to inject a little bit of class into what has been an admittedly silly cycle by suggesting the group watches Baz Luhrmann's William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet . In what was undeniably a cultural flash point of the 90s, Luhrmann adapted the classic play into a modern setting in what could only be des...

You are all my listeners, now! The Delroy Lindo Train cannot be stopped this episode as Bri took the rest of the girls on a trip through Jet Li's The One . A little bit of Highlander, a little bit of Future Wars, and a whole lot of nu-metal, The One is a relic from an era of Hollywood where the dumbest ideas were allowed to exist, so long as they had star power behind them. Join Bridget, EV, Bri,...

So, you rob banks and trains, but you can't steal this podcast for a night? After a brief hiatus, all of the girls are back again, this time to discuss a movie actually released in the same calendar year as this recording: Sinners ! With all the hype behind this film earlier on in the year, EV felt it was a worthwhile pick for the group to watch and discuss; suffice it to say, this bombastic love...

With our regularly scheduled episodes currently on hold due to Big Moves Happening, Jae figured there has never been a better time to have an in-depth 3-hour long discussion about 2025's totemic visual novel, The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy . However, she couldn't handle such a herculean task on her own, so she invited on Eskay from Two Queers Play ( https://www.youtube.com/@twoqueersplay )...

It's Monkey Monday! Show me that monkey! For this episode's expedition, Bridget took the rest of the girls into the depths of the Congo with the 1997 film, Congo . While certainly not a good movie, Congo more than makes up for it by being a wildly eccentric piece of technothriller slop. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss the impact of Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park , Jimmy Buffett, a...

If there's any kind of magic in this world, it must be in the attempt of podcasting. In a major tonal shift, Jae felt like it was time for the rest of the girls to learn a little bit about the art of yearning, which means they're talking about Richard Linklater's Before Sunrise ; the first entry in the Before trilogy, this film introduces us to Jessie and Celine, a couple of 20-somethings whose ch...

Boy, I never seen four ladies do so much damned podcasting. The girls are getting off the couch and hitting the road because, in this episode, Bri is taking them on a cross-country trip with Beavis and Butt-Head Do America . It may be a stupid movie, but it manages to be so tremendously stupid that the spectacle of these two terrible homunculus teenagers shines brightly. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and...

You keep what you podcast. The girls are officially running on Diesel because, in this episode, EV had them watch and talk about the 2004 space opera farce, The Chronicles of Riddick . Supposedly, this is a sequel to the sci-fi/horror hit, Pitch Black ; however, it plays out more like the vanity project of an edgy D&D nerd trapped in Vin Diesel's body. Wait, nevermind, that's just Vin Diesel....

This podcast started years ago! It took a whole year of episodes, but Bridget was finally able to make the rest of the girls watch an anime movie they all loved: Mamoru Oshii's Patlabor 2: The Movie . With this film, Oshii transforms Patlabor , originally a series of goofy cop shenanigans, into a cold meditation on the concept of "peace" in an era of endless proxy wars. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and...

Is this your podcast, listener? The girls have officially become a real podcast and started their second year of broadcasting. And what better way to kick off the new season than a round table discussion on what is arguably the most iconic comedy of all time, The Big Lebowski . Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they chat about post-Reagan politics, recreational marijuana use, and the absurdity of...

We've reached the end of our first year of podcasting, which can only mean one thing: It's time to craft an arbitrary ranking of the films we watched over the course of that first year!

The Podcast has become so very ugly, don't you think? As the girls reach the end of the first season, EV reveals that there has been a mole in their ranks this whole time; the only way they can solve this mystery is by discussing the 2011 spy-thriller Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy . An adaptation of a sprawling novel, the film attempts to condense all of its source material's meticulous details down t...

The podcast is not square! Bridget decided to take the girls into The Anime Mines one more time this season and they were not prepared in the slightest for what Gundam Reconguista in G: Movie I — Go! Core Fighter had to offer. As a compilation movie, choices were made of what to include or, more importantly, not include for fresh viewers and the results are mostly catastrophic. Join Bri, Bridget,...

As you podcast...join the girls as Bri reads them a bedtime story about giant rats, Andre the Giant, and The Princess Bride . Despite being a beloved piece of pop culture, Jae has managed to avoid seeing this film for her whole life; will she love it as much as the rest of the group? There's only one way to find out and, in case you weren't aware, that's by listening to the dang episode! Join Bri,...

You pod what you love and cast the rest. The girls hit the highway for the final loop, as Jae has the group watch '00s indie darling, Little Miss Sunshine . Part dysfunctional family drama, part dark comedy, and all deconstruction of the insidious gender norms that permeate American culture, Little Miss Sunshine remains an entertaining road movie from start to finish. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Ja...
