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 classic about post-9/11 America. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss MySpace, the indie rock boom of the mid to late 2000s', and the commodification of national tragedies.
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 as they discuss the shadow Tolkien casts over genre fiction, homosociality, and, of course, wizards ripping fat clouds
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 Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade. Emphasis on the word "tries". Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss the aesthetic ambitions of Studio SHAFT, the dissolution of imperial Japan, and Monster Musume.
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 described as a frantic cyclone of camp. Join Bridget, EV, Bri and Jae as they discuss queer undertones, the value of excellent casting, and Son of the Mask.
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, and Jae as they discuss turn-of-the-century politics, ziggurats, and, of course, rats with giant balls.
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 letter to music and genre fiction didn't disappoint. Join EV, Bridget, Bri, and Jae as they discuss the blues, the dire state of sexuality in popular culture, and America as an ideal vs. America as a reality.
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) to help her out. Join the two of them as they discuss the psycho-sexual nature of fascism, choose-your-own-adventure novels, and the liberation of creating art, regardless of its flaws.
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, and eviscerating monkeys with a laser gun.
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 chance meeting will lead to a lifelong romance. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss romantic chemistry, the liminality of life, and the ironic detachment of Gen X.
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 Jae as they discuss the cultural dominance of MTV, anti-humor, and the ineptitude of the U.S. government.Join the Discord! https://discord.gg/bcGMXVvA
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. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss whatever is going on with Karl Urban's hair, the ambiguity of play, and the 1985 hit song, "Walk of Life" by Dire Straights.

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 Jae as they discuss blowback, the Tokyo Sarin Gas Attacks, and neoliberal capitalism's inability to respond to problems of their own making.
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 "film theories".
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 to a red-string-tattered cork-board. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss the ideology of conspiracy theory, the aesthetics of power, and, of course, cuckolding.
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, EV, and Jae as they discuss Yoshiyuki Tomino, misogyny, and cannibalism
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, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss storytelling, true love, and My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
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 Jae as they discuss American exceptionalism, Osmosis Jones, and various flavors of familial baggage.
![Episode 20 - Minecraft but I survive in PARKOUR CIVILIZATION [FULL MOVIE]](https://s3.castbox.fm/4e/13/e5/babcf207d3f28579458c039cf9415a660f_scaled_v1_400.jpg "Episode 20 - Minecraft but I survive in PARKOUR CIVILIZATION [FULL MOVIE]")
Alright, you know the deal: are you going for the chicken or the podcast? Anime Fun Time is over, as EV took the rest of the girls to something that can barely be categorized as a movie: Minecraft but I survive in PARKOUR CIVILIZATION [FULL MOVIE]. Essentially a compilation of YouTube Shorts, Parkour Civilization is an amalgamation of Let's Plays, anti-capitalist art, and algorithm manipulation. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss the post-YouTube media landscape, naive art, and the rule of tens in comedy.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can't teach her how to podcast. The anime relay race enters the final stretch as Bridget takes the girls to the horse track with Uma Musume: Pretty Derby — Beginning of a New Era. Although the girls appreciate the concept and moments of stunning animation, the opinions on the final product are mixed, to say the least. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss the moé-to-gacha game pipeline, the works of David Lynch, and whether or not value can be derived from commercials
