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.
·26· Winter Clipisode
These podcasters do more than watch movies, call actors by the wrong name, and go off on tangential rants. OR DO THEY?
Outtakes, bloopers, and anecdotes about your favorite and least favorite chick flicks are just one chick-click away.
·25· Overboard
In this episode, Helen observes some stunning parallels between Overboard and James Cameron’s Titanic, meanwhile Valerie fetishizes macaroni necklaces and Matt observes the many unromantic themes the film would rather you ignore.
Oh—and Happy New Year!
