Brenna and Joe circle back on Hayley Kiyoko's Girls Like Girls to check out the 2026 film.We're disappointed. Great chemistry between the two leads and music video visual aesthetic don't make up for even less character development than the book!Plus: Zach Braff; losing backstories; and pondering the changes in the queer female media landscape over the last ~10 yearsWanna connect with the show?

Following our episode on The Song of the Lioness, we immediately heard from 'Tea, Books & Chocolate' as well as Emma who wrote in to reassure us about the subversive nature of the rest of the quartet, new love interests, and how the series intersects with queerness in unexpected ways.Plus: an apology from Joe and a reassurance that we will continue with plans to read Book 3!Wanna connect with the show?

Brenna and Joe catch up on Prime's Legally Blonde prequel with season one of Elle.Starring a perfectly cast Lexi Minetree, we have a lot of pros and cons with the series. The model is not binge-friendly and the relationships are inconsistent across episodes. Plus: Tom Everett Scott as Elle's dad; needle drops; a final James Van Der Beek performance; and disagreement about the love triangleWanna connect with the show?

Skins series three ends by sidelining most of its characters in order to focus on the Effy, Freddie, and Cook love triangle and WE DON'T CARE!Plus: Cook's extremely predictable father; a granny race; the grimness of the finale; and we finally figure out what's missing from/wrong with this season.Wanna connect with the show?

Brenna and Joe return to discuss 1984's In the Hand of the Goddess, book two of Tamora Pierce's The Song of the Lioness.This is an interesting one because the book is much more YA than MA (Alanna is having sex!) and also jumps around in time.Plus: wrapping up Duke Roger; a plot detail stolen by Veronica Roth for Divergent; and our fears about where the quadrilogy may goWanna connect with the show?

It's the penultimate episode of Skins series three and Brenna and Joe are getting real mad at Katie. If you were hoping to feel some kind of sympathy for the injured twin, look elsewhere because as everyone prepares for prom, Katie proves she's absolutely terrible to Emily.Plus: absent Effy & Cook, happy endings (?) for Pandora & Thomas and Emily and Naomi, and where we think the finale will go.Wanna connect with the show?

It's another Brenna pick as we continue to explore the shorts-> feature pipeline with 2020's Theater Camp and its 2023 feature adaptation.Created by husband pair Noah Galvin and Ben Platt, as well as Molly Gordon and director Nick Lieberman, these improv heavy texts are perfect for folks who know theater...and find it a little ridiculous.Plus: Joe's appreciation of the film's expanded runtime; our favourite jokes; and a discussion of "actor" archetypes.

It's time for a party in the woods and Brenna and Joe are becoming increasingly worried about Effy.Obviously the rock fight at episode's end will have some big ramifications, but the looming mental health crisis of pairing Effy and Cook has us terrified for the young girl.Plus: rural horror vibes; Brenna's burgeoning interest in Katie; and predictions for the penultimate episode.Wanna connect with the show?

On the heels of the 1994 short, Brenna and Joe check out Trevor: The Musical, the Off Broadway adaptation that is a full blown musical! Written by Dan Collins and directed by Robin Abrams, the nearly two hour version of the story unfortunately doesn't add content so much as stretch it out. Still, there's some good to be found here, including the Diana Ross performance, and the staging. But what about that changed (C/W) suicide attempt?!Wanna connect with the show?
