Two Dudes Ranting About Taylor Swift

T Lo take a look at all of the drama and rhetoric surrounding the release of Taylor Swift's "The Life of a Showgirl" and how it speaks of a problem for all artists who reach an unprecedented level of success: Can billionaires even create art?

T Lo celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the release of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and unpack why it was so important to two generations of queer people and why it still resonates today.  Plus: Checking back in on the Jimmy Kimmel situation and a gushing review of "House of Guinness."

T Lo flipped on their mics and got to unpacking everything they know about modern media consolidation, celebrity promotion, economics and politics in regard to the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel for making remarks that powerful people didn't like.

T Lo observe the 50th anniversary of "Grey Gardens" and dive into the history, the ethical considerations and the making of the film and explain why gay men in particular have always been obsessed with its main subject, Edie Beale.

T Lo go DEEP on the finale of "And Just Like That..." and all of the ways the show failed its characters, its fans and its legacy. PLUS: e.l.f. Cosmetics thought they could get clever riding the anti-woke wave with Matt Rife and it blew up in their faces.

PLUS: "And Just Like That..." had a not-horrible episode! T Lo rip it to shreds anyway.

T Lo look at the sudden Pedro Pascal backlash, what's fueling it, and whether it's coordinated. Then they unpack recent stories about Laverne Cox's news regarding her personal life and why her fans are disappointed and Variety magazine's hit piece on "Alien: Earth" star Sydney Chandler and who's in the wrong. And then they pop open the Champagne and toast to the end of Aidan and Carrie on "And Just Like That..."

T Lo look at the Colbert Late Night cancellation and what it says about this moment, both culturally and politically. Then they unpack all of the privacy and social media issues surrounding the cheating CEO at the Coldplay concert and all of the fan drama surrounding Pedro Pascal's former stylist.
