Bonnie and Clyde month continues with our first movie: The Bonnie Parker Story (1958). This movie made the baffling choice to change Clyde's name to Guy. To unpack this baffling decision, Amanda is joined by special guest Caitlyn of the North from Pleasers & Punishers. Wanna connect with the show?

Between 1932 and 1934 outlaws Bonnie Elizabeth Parker and Clyde Champion Barrow traveled the American West, robbing small stores, filling stations, banks and shooting anyone who got in their way. The duo had the press and the public enthralled with their crimes. Even to this day, Bonnie and Clyde live on in infamy. Tune in to learn all about this killer couple. Wanna connect with the show?

Our month of John List coverage wraps up with Taye Diggs in the Tubi title Stepfather (2026). Aside from a great lead performance, this one is a dud. Not only is it strangely more of a remake of the 2009 film, but it reverts back to problematic/inaccurate depictions of mental health and features way too many shitty cop characters who add nothing to the film!

Our second John List title is Nelson McCormick's 2009 remake, The Stepfather starring Dylan Walsh and (often shirtless) Penn Badgley. It's bigger and longer and gender swaps the teen character...but curiously doesn't do anything with the newfound male energy. Plus: queer connections; questioning Walsh's casting; and joking about how 2000s era this film is. Wanna connect with the show?
