Glee (with Syd Stanley)

This week I’m joined by Syd Stanley (@pohdameron) to talk the real beginning of Ryan Murphy’s reign of terror, Aaron Tveit, fanfic, reclaiming misogyny, slutty turtlenecks, the Good Friday Agreement and what you missed on Glee.

Structure?? I barely know her!!! For this week’s mini I’m back with my right hand hater, Jill Deneumoustier (@jilldeneumoustier) with an episode that’s nothing if not coherent. We debut our weekly roundup of FUCK, FIGHT, MURDER and some topics include but are not limited to: Olivia Rodrigo, Jill’s first Eurovision, snuff, ventriloquist dummies, and being completely overwhelmingly and always #TeamJess. IYKYK.

You better wagon wheel that Watusi, baby. This week Ariel Von Autumn (@lovewitched) joins me to talk about a movie that owns air rights above our hearts, 2010’s Burlesque! We talk about the true villains of this movie, sapphic undertones, a modern recast and girls supporting girls fighting girls.

For this week’s Minnie Mouseisode, I’m joined by artist and writer Emma Woods (@cowwedboy) to talk about a not-really-niche piece of culture I can’t stop hatewatching TikToks about - Disney Adults™️©️. Also featured: discussions of American individualism, cults of personality, John Cassavetes’ Buzzfeed Renaissance, subliminal shifting, Ghostbusters and more!

Did you know that there’s a sequel to the 1990 family comedy classic Kindergarten Cop? Me and my guest, writer James Hudson (@townmice), sure wish there wasn’t!!! Join us as we compare and contrast the original and it’s unnecessary sequel, cementing that the 1990 version is a true classic of cinema and the 2016 version is about as helpful as a wet fart in white pants.

This week, YouTuber Shomari Stafford (Doomstrange Presents, look it up losers) joins me to talk all things back to the future to the past to the 60s in our scathing review of the nonsensically acclaimed Umbrella Academy. Shout out to fans of this series, we did not spare your feelings! Also - you can write whatever smack you want about us in the reviews AS LONG AS you rate us five stars! Go absolootly off chef.

For our first minisode, I’m joined again by Jill Deneumoustier (@jilldeneumoustier) to kick back and chat about the 93rd Academy Awards and play some rounds of Based On The Vibes This Person Gives Off, Not On Any Information We Know About Them, Is This Celeb Vaxxed? Please do not sue us for libel, thanks!

This week I’m joined by writer Jill Deneumoustier (@jilldeneumoustier) to discuss our shared living nightmare that is manifested in the CW’s sexy Archie comics reboot, Riverdale. In this episode we attempt to break down the who, what, when, where and WHY Riverdale is the way that it is. Do we succeed or do we both suffer mutual brain haemorrhages? Only one way to find out.

We dig deep and delve into what makes watching trash so addictive and enjoyable - and what makes things that *we thought* would be enjoyable complete trash.
