The Capsule '98 Podcast

On this episode, we're joined by Julio from Night Opening, the hit Twitter account that's amassed legions of fans with its four-image recaps of '90s movie premieres. On Julio's feed, you'll find Paris Hilton walking the red carpet with Carrie Fischer, Jason Alexander wearing countless fanny packs and Freddie Prinze Jr. with frosted purple tips. Join us as we go for a wild ride through the Getty Images archive and re-visit iconic premieres like Showgirls, 54 and Austin Powers.

On this episode, we're talking all about one of the defining film genres of the '90s: Romantic Comedy. From Notting Hill to You've Got Mail, they've been etched into our minds, so much so that Elizabeth Sankey directed an entire documentary about them! She joins me from London as we lol through a questionable history of impossibly charming cinematic love.

On this episode, we're joined by legendary fashion stylist and personality Joe Zee, and Elle Canada's editor-in-chief, Vanessa Craft. Joe and Vanessa recently starred as guest judges in the fashion competition show, Stitched, and joined me in the studio to journey back to their incredibly iconic lives in the '90s (Joe was working with everyone from Mariah to Madonna to J.Lo, while Vanessa was living the dream as a back up dancer amongst other things!)

On this episode, we're joined by director Darren Stein and costume designer Vikki Barrett, the masterminds behind Jawbreaker! We look back at the legacy of this eternally stylish cult classic film, plus Darren and Vikki spill the tea on what it was like working with Rose McGowan, wrapping Rebecca Gayheart in latex, and why this game-changing movie could never happen today.

Welcome to Season 2 of this obsessively nostalgic podcast! We're back with an all new episode featuring the creator of Girlboss herself, Sophia Amoruso and singer/songwriter, Ralph! Sophia is the founder of Nasty Gal, a two-time author, podcast host and an all-around boss bitch who grew up thinking fart sounds were hilarious. Ralph (Raffa Weyman) is your new favourite pop princess. Join us as we chat about the highs and lows of high school, Joshua Jackson's level of hotness and more!

For the Season 1 finale of Capsule '98, I'm joined by two of the funniest people on the Internet, Lara Marie Schoenhals and Graydon Sheppard! Lara is the genius behind the Sexy Unique Podcast, Cosmo Sex Tips and my fave viral video, Please Welcome to the Stage. Graydon is best known for his iconic viral hit, Shit Girls Say. Together, they spoof YouTubers on their new channel, Influencd. Join us as we talk prom and the apparent two Cs of high school: Crushes and Cocaine! Capsule '98 will be back with Season 2 this fall! Don't forget to subscribe and follow me on Instagram at @Capsule98 so you're looped!

This week, I am joined by Amy Wood and Kyrell Grant, two members of Drunk Feminist Films, a Toronto troupe who would rather "laugh than cry their way through Hollywood representations of gender, race, sexuality, class and other aspects of identity." DFF produces lighthearted events and media that use cocktail-fuelled feminist commentary to tease apart the tropes of mainstream movies. Join us, as we rip apart of a few of 1998's most iconic flicks, including There's Something About Mary, Ever After, Can't Hardly Wait, Practical Magic, You've Got Mail and Wild Things.

For Episode 9, we are joined by the incomparable Jeanne Beker, host of Fashion Television, which ran from 1985-2012. FT brought the height of fashion (Linda! Naomi! Cindy!) to homes worldwide and if you grew up during its tenure, she was your first exposure to the glam of the runway. Join us as Jeanne takes us back to the most iconic decade in fashion history and spills the beans on interviewing Madonna, meeting Versace and the time her kids peed with the Olsen Twins.
