Daria Arts and Crass
2d ago00:37:16Tap to summarizeTrigger warning for talk of anorexia and the pro ana community at large. This entire episode involves a lot of talk about appearance and how it can affect our self-worth. Libby is back to talk Daria! One of my all-time favorite shows. It's crazy how well Daria holds up and how endlessly rewatchable it is. I hope you all the best New Year's Eve ever! Daria and Jane create an iconoclastic poster for a contest, only to find that the school demands it be altered against their wishes.

Transcribe →Elizabethtown 2005 Manic Pixie Dream Girls part 1
2w ago01:17:35Tap to summarizeMax and Cassandra's exploration of the Manic Pixie Dream Girl continues with the film that started it all: Elizabethtown (2005). Does this flick deserve all the vitriol? Or is it just the victim of sneering dismissals by cynical critics who's mothers didn't hug them enough when they were young? Is it good? Is it bad? Is Kirsten Dunst's Clair actually a manic pixie dream girl at all? All this and more!

Aug 2901:13:43Tap to summarizePatreon Throwback!!!! New guest Andrew, Steven and I are jumping into the secret code Gen z is speaking and texting in! We try hard to understand the nuances of Gen Z's "secret language," which can often shift and evolve rapidly, driven by trends, memes, and the ever-changing landscape of digital culture. From passive aggressive punctuation to full blown ghosting, let's get into it! *OG Air date 8/9/2024*

Transcribe →I Know What You Did Last Summer
Aug 101:28:17Tap to summarizeSep 10, 2022* Patreon Release* I'm joined by friend of the pod Derek Weber of Derek Weber Scary Stories to discussthe 1997 thriller, I Know What You Did Last Summer! "Julie eventually discovered that Ben had in fact murdered David Egan, who they originally thought was the person they hit. Ben's daughter, Susie Willis, was killed in a car crash that David managed to survive. Blaming David, Ben went and killed him. After the murder, he was on his way home when the teens hit him". This has potential to be one of the most convoluted and simultaneously well executed plots ever. Enjoy!
