This is a special episode because this is my fresh, hot, and first watch of Beetlejuice. Yes, you read that right. I am a child of the 80s and somehow I have skated through life without seeing this movie. In the episode I explain how and why.

Since it's October spooky season, Mikey is along for the ride as an expert in all things scary and/or comedy. I'm here to report that I loved it and I sincerely think that we all identify with Lydia. I feel like I've been channelling her my whole life without knowing it.

We get into the amazing FASHION, the stacked cast, and how I was shocked to find out that Beetlejuice was a sleazy salesman and all around weirdo.

off-topic rants include: Terminator series, new horror, Tales from the Crypt

It's been a minute! You know I'm still deep and plugged into this Summer House drama so I get into that. Also touching on the end of the RHOBH reunion, Love Island starting back up, and the scripted shows like Euphoria, The Boys, and what the hell happening at SVU.

We're finally back in the world of 90s movies with Postcards from the Edge (1990)! This one has been on my list forever and I'm so miffed at myself for not seeing it sooner. Charles is back on the pod to chat this one with me. We get into how Meryl is basically good at EVERYTHING, how it's a crime that Shirley MacLaine didn't win the Oscar, and the amazing 'Stevie Nicks in the early 90s fashion'.

I swear we take 2 weeks off from talking Bravo and the whole Summer House scandal has moved miles and mountains since we last checked in. Now I was going to record a rageful episode last week but good thing I didn't cause now Callum is here to break down the latest bird behavior from "those two". We're talking that bold and insane baseball game PDA, the odd male dynamics in the house, and then cap it off with Bev Hills and The Valley. 

Notable moments: 

24:10 List of West 'icks"

55: 00 Bev Hills 

1:23:00 The Valley

This is one of those films that hits you like a ton of 'bricks' (ha). When I first saw the trailer on a "Focus Features" DVD I knew this was one that I had to see. In Rian Johnson's directorial debut, this modern film noir weaves quite a knot that slowly unties throughout the course of the story.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt carries every scene which reminded me of his other indie films in the early 00s that I loved so much. I get into why this story and visual style reminds me of Donnie Darko, how Focus Features was equivalent to A24 back in the day, the minimal normie yet important fashion, and try to work out the illogical parts of what the hell was actually going on.

"Throw one at me if you want, hash head. I've got all five senses and I slept last night, that puts me six up on the lot of you."
