Rope - Nut Boys, Candelabras & a Terrible Dinner Party

1948: the year Alfred Hitchcock’s Rope was released, and also the approximate number of homosexuals featured in Alfred Hitchcock’s Rope. Ah, we kid, we kid…there’s five at the most. Two at the least. Three at the most likely. But hey, three homosexuals in a 1948 movie? And one of them is Jimmy Stewart?? What more could you hope for???

I Know What You Did Last Summer - Plural Possessives, Exclamation Points & a Shipping Container Gym

Well, it’s everyone’s favorite time of year…that special Monday where Paul watches a slasher film! But still, he just got through Jaws, so surely a silly little lark like I Know What You Did Last Summer couldn’t be too scary, right? After all, Sarah Michelle Gellar is there, and what is Buffy Summers if not a comfort, right? In any case, come listen to Erika and Paul take you through the plot of I Know What You Did Last Summer, while also trying to figure out all the different ways the title can...

Jaws - Vengeance, Sharkenkägen & a Brave Little Dildo

Okay, we had our fun last week and now we are back to horror classics with 1975’s Jaws, a film that Paul swore up and down he would never watch. Well, the thing about Paul is that he’s easily swayed by public opinion. A bunch of requests combined with Erika’s enthusiasm got Paul to watch Jaws! Did he like it? Is he furious with Erika??

Carrie - Majestic Hair, Locker Room Fantasies & a Heavy Metal Jesus Figurine

Well, WELCOME BACK!! The long September break is over! Erika and Paul have returned just in time for Spooky October, and they have brought with them a horror classic: 1976’s Carrie! It’s not just that Sissy Spacek, Betty Buckley, Amy Irving, Nancy Allen, PJ Soles, and Piper Laurie are SERVING, it’s that the film raises so many important questions.

Stand By Me - Scrot Leeches, Blueberry Pie & a Working Definition of “Fun”

The year is 1986, the film is Rob Reiner’s Stand By Me, and the hosts are crying (again). Seriously, are Erika and Paul crying a lot more lately? Do they both need to toughen up, or should they be celebrated for letting their emotions run so freely?
