·32· Intolerable Cruelty

Give it up for the one and (likely) only time we’ll get to discuss a Coen brother’s film on Falling in Love Montage.
We like to stay flexible, and this is a very comfortable stretch for us as we, and special guest Malcolm Nygard, have a rich and uproarious conversation about Intolerable Cruelty.

Are you asking yourself where you have heard Malcolm’s intoxicating voice before? Maybe you recall it from our new bumper? (Psst! We joined a podcast network earlier this month!) Or maybe you are already a fan of or subscriber to the Comrade Radio Network? If you aren’t already, you can hear more from Malcolm on his show Apoc Radio and the Comrade Radio Podcast.

·31· Spring Clipisode

In this, our third clip episode, you’ll hear bits and pieces from Ghostbusters, Jane Eyre, Bridget Jones’s Baby, Crank, While You Were Sleeping, and Overboard.

I feel it is only fair to remind you that we absorbed a whole lot of acute sexism during our Ghostbusters research and then, the next thing you know, it was November and our fragile little female bodies and minds were very, very weary.

One of my favorite podcasts recently made a disclaimer about choosing to be neutral when it comes to politics. I was very happy for him that he and his co-host were lucky enough to feel they had such a choice. Listeners, for as long as females are marginalized, we do not have that choice and I truly hope you can enjoy our programming and our points of view.

·30· The Sweetest Thing

Welcome to our thirtieth episode—and our first episode as part of the Comrade Radio family! We are majorly, totally, butt-crazy in love with this new undertaking.
Also of equal excitement is the announcement of our special guest, Nicole Kemper of ‘The Feminine Mistake podcast‘ and ‘Critical Crop Top‘. Nicole writes, directs, produces, and stars in some of Atlanta’s premiere sketch comedy and must-see web series.

·29· Moulin Rouge

Can you guess the name of this film solely from a peak at Helen’s note taking?

1) She’s shaking her vag-heart right at him

2) Coughing equals death

3) Was he the most masturbated about man at this time? (look that up!)

Give up? Need context?

Well, it’s Moulin Rouge of course!

·28· Bend it Like Beckham


I’ve pulled these two quotes that, I believe, fully color the movie, Bend it Like Beckham.

“There is a history of seeing difference, in terms of culture (…) as problematic. For me, difference is celebratory.” – Gurinder Chadha (writer, director)

“This movie kicks balls” – Matt LaStar (Ask A Matt)

·27· Hitch


FiLM podcast is back with a full episode and we’re discussing the 2005 feature film Hitch. Joining us is a special guest, Jessie Cooper. He is the host and co-host of such podcasts as ‘Turn to Page’, ‘Alphabet Flight’, ‘Random Sampling’, and ‘Me, Last Year’. Join the three of us as we successfully keep from making a single joke about “getting jiggy” with anything, well up until right now.
