OMG Finally some respect on Billy Madison

Omg finally! Can't wait to listen.

podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/y... Please enjoy some lovely escapism as this silly movie (and Sandler in general) receives a richer analysis than anyone ever asked for. 😂 Another 10/10 from @youaregood.bsky.social

NEW EPISODE! "At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought." In which @maryhoulie.bsky.social explains to Alex and @nikostratis.com what about Billy Madison warms her heart.

“Fear is euphoric.” This podcast episode has everything: best daddies, emotional vulnerability, nuanced observations and personal thoughts on addiction, jokes, and of course the smartest person I know in the guest chair 💖

I am so glad this reminder / quasi affirmation from the intros of @youaregood.bsky.social has been meaningful to y’all.

Happy Halloween! 🎃 🔪 🎃

Thanks to Paige at @universityofri.bsky.social alum relations for the lovely feature on F*cked Up Fairy Tales!

With #Sinners back in theaters today, thought I'd reshare the article I wrote about the Choctaw Vampire Hunters and why that moment didn't NEED to be centered more even tho we would all love to see more of their story. redpopnews.com/sinners-give... #redpopnews

I just watched Halloween H20 (for fun, not for the show) and I like how hard they lean into Michael being a driver.

This is one of the loveliest, most vulnerable, and moving conversations that I’ve heard on You Are Good, and that’s saying something. Pan’s Labyrinth is one of my faves but I haven’t seen Cronos - I’m going to watch it tonight. Even if you don’t think you’ll watch the film, listen to this episode. ❤️

NEW EPISODE! In which we talk vampires, breaking curses, and the Guillermo del Toro of it all. @mexicanity.bsky.social joins to talk Cronos and we are all better for it.

This is absolutely delightful!

ok i did not expect that

I had a lovely conversation with @alexsteed.bsky.social about this banger by @realgdt.bsky.social. Cronos is the vampire movie with heart that you need to add to your spooky season rotation. Thanks to Alex for inviting me and I hope you enjoy our chat.

Very few facts about the media landscape of my youth blow my mind, but the Rockapella Carmen Sandiego x Spike Lee connection really did a number on me.

Really loved getting to chat with @nathanwhitlock.bsky.social about my book, and where I'm at with the two (?) new books I'm working on now

top notch ET analysis, @alexsteed.bsky.social & @riverbutcher.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/e...

Amen.

I haven’t been this excited about a new podcast in a long time. Molly Lambert is one of my podcast heroes.

My parents took me and my twin sister to see E.T. in theatre. So we would have been 3 or 4. Apparently, we left the theatre, sobbing and a woman in line to see the next showing turned to her date and said she'd changed her mind about seeing it because it was clearly too sad. 1/

Went to a prayer service tonight at St. Mary of the Lake, where they have cardboard cutouts throughout the church representing parishioners afraid to come to Mass because of ICE.

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!! Sarah Marshall (of @yourewrongabout.bsky.social & @youaregood.bsky.social podcasts) HAS A SATANIC PANIC PODCAST SERIES RIGHT NOW! Perfect timing spooky time yeah! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

“Two Weeks!” choose business ethic ethic can be summarized Total Recall and queer joy with Crystal and River Butcher.

finally some good news

NEW EPISODE! Perhaps this Verhoeven guy was onto something! In which Crystal takes @riverbutcher.bsky.social and Alex to Mars and the gang tries their darndest to deconstruct Total Recall.

NEW EPISODE! "The Father Knows Best" (S2E13) Choice quotes: "There was still outercourse and that's still bad." "It's so funny that they're named Bebop and Rocksteady." "Hugging’s not that good." "Good luck getting fucked in Italy."

Just in time for this week’s episode about Total Recall (1990, of course).

Watching Psycho. This is pretty good, huh?

Watched Poltergeist for the first time last night at the tender age of 38 because @youaregood.bsky.social made me cry talking about Zelda Rubinstein's HIV/AIDS PSA. A beautiful story of the hottest pot-smoking parents in your suburb ignoring their son's crippling anxiety disorder. I truly loved it.

Our pal @louispeitzman.bsky.social stopped by to tell us what initially drew him to A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge!

NEW EPISODE! In which we explore Freddy's Revenge, and homoeroticism, with @louispeitzman.bsky.social. Also! @harmonycolangelo.bsky.social of This Ends at Prom stops by to share her take!

what a great accompaniment to What Went Wrong's episode on this very same film, out just last week.

You don’t have to ask me to come on a podcast to talk about Nightmare on Elm Street. You just say the words “Freddy’s Revenge” and I appear.

This show has such a knack for dropping the right episodes exactly when I need them. I love this film and these guys nailed a lot of what makes it so emotionally resonant.
