We're both overseas at the moment so pulled this classic ep out of the archives!This week, Kate and Brodie are digging into the source material, backstory, iconic moments and sexy highlighter costumes of the outcast classic: Romy and Michele's High School Reunion. Jinxy also coins a great new abbreev: et cet. There might not be Also Alsos this week, but don't worry, there's still plenty of further reading and ideas to Add To Cart – or at least Open in New Tab.It's 1997 and Romy White and Michele Weinberger, best friends and fun cool party girls who live in Venice Beach, find out their 10 year high school reunion is coming up. As all the old, buried teenage insecurities re-emerge, Romy insists they need to improve themselves before coming face-to-face with their high school bullies, by getting more impressive jobs, finding boyfriends and SOMEHOW losing weight. Once they get closer to the event, they find themselves lying about their lives and losing one another for a few hours, before reuniting just in time to resolve all their high school trauma with (what else?) a dance scene.See AlsosMira Sorvino's Oscars speechLA times review of Ladies' RoomRonan Farrow's early reporting on WeinsteinAn Oral History of Romy and Michele's High School ReunionJaneane Garofalo Never Sold Out.

Inspired by her time as a student at the Connecticut girls' boarding school Rosemary Hall in the 1960s, the film follows new student Odette Sinclair (Gaby Hoffman) as she meets the ICONIQUE headmistress Miss McVane (Lynn Redgrave) and falls in with a new clique led by Kirsten Dunst's Verena Von Stefan. No sooner is Odie welcomed in than their friend Tweetie (my girl Heather Matarazzo) overhears the school board's plans to merge Miss Godard's into a co-ed school with the nearby St Ambrose Academy.  This sets the films antics into motion, pits the boy crazy Tweetie and Tinka, an aspiring "actress-folk singer-slut", against Verena and brainiac Momo (our girl Merritt Wever) and eventually leads Odie to stage a sit-in to demand the girls at Miss Godard's have a voice in the future of their school.Brodie is joined by her bff Anton De Ionno to discuss the sad saga behind this film's release, its legacy in our lives and many spiritual connections to Gilmore Girls.See AlsosHaley Mlotek's piece in MetrographInterview with Sarah Kernochan in Business Insider + in Flashback Films26 years before The Holdovers, Disney buried the best boarding school comedyPeter Biskind’s 2004 book Down and Dirty Pictures: Miramax, Sundance, and the Rise of Independent FilmAnton recommendsAn Unmarried WomanLove Is a Drag: For Adult Listeners Onlydry-humping Hosted on Acast.

On this week's See Also, Kate and Brodie are both prepping for some time away, plus Jinxy recaps the Melbourne premiere of Beetlejuice and BL describes a bizarro time seeing Blink Twice at Kino's "Cinema 8".On the docket this week are chats about two very brilliant and very different films: Coralie Fargeat's The Substance (skip from 32:37 to 53:43 if you don't want spoilers) and Jane Schoenbrun's I Saw the TV Glow. We chat about how it's been a big year for chicks shooting up, finding a bit of flesh to poke an earring in, listening to what a film is saying – even if it's not speaking to you – and being simply a lesbian.

On this week's See Also, Kate and Brodie are collecting themselves post-MIFF. Jinxy is a little snail, sans memoir, and BL is similarly on the hunt for a new shell to call home.They debrief on the movies they loved, the people they met and the iconic nistas of fashion they've been interviewing. Jinxy hosted an on-stage talk with Hollywood costume designer Deborah L. Scott and BL interviewed Charli XCX for the cover of Vogue Australia's September issue. Then we discuss the recent investigation into the troubling "boys' club" at Swillhouse and the restaurant group's history of perpetuating harmful workplace practices, as reported in the Sydney Morning Herald.

It's the Trap by M Night Shyamalan podcast! Kate and Brodie have been to see English, a new play at MTC, a new RHONY teaser is out featuring the real-life gay friend of Jenna Lyons, Jinxy is having her "ball dropping down a la All Fours by Miranda July" birthday and is saving the article about Katherine Hepburn being an awful neighbour, she's celebrating in a very Kate Culture way – watching short films about architecture at a Robin Boyd-designed house, let us podcast from SUR LA MER in St Kilda!!!! Both of us are doom-prepping for a fortnight of film festival madness in the kitchen. Neither of us will bring a thermos of soup into the cinema but only one of us is making MUFF SOUP. BL has started following a new TikTok chef who's been cooking in Liz Lange's Hamptons house aka THE GREY GARDENS HOUSE. The kid from Presumed Innocent looks like the girl from Hereditary.Then we recollect our night watching the first session of M Night Shyamalan's Trap at Thornbury Picture House. Incredible, amazing, loved every second. We won't spoil the end, but we do dig into the plot points, most of which are the setup and concept of the story, okay? We each shout out our Hayley Mills faves: Kate's is Whistle Down the Wind and Brodie's is The Parent Trap IV: Hawaiian Honeymoon. All the greats are here: Alison Pill! Kid Cudi!
