| 4/28/26 | ![]() If I Had Legs I'd Kick You: Everything Is Under Control | Victor and Jenna join Caitlin to discuss A24's If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, an excellent but stressful movie from 2025. We talk about monstrous-motherhood, ARFID, eating disorders treatment, and more. It's one we all enjoyed, and could very well be titled Distress Tolerance: The Movie. Tangents include: an ARFID soapbox, Richmond breakfast spots, movie theater experiences, and what we do when we're feeling down. | — | ||||||
| 4/21/26 | ![]() Jakob's Wife: Monstrous Menopause | Rachel joins Caitlin to cover Jakob's Wife, the underseen Barbara Crampton vampire movie from 2021. This is a personal favorite of ours: it's feminist, it's funny, and it's Barbara Freaking Crampton. We discuss transformation, menopause, humor, Christian patriarchy, and more! Tangents include: forgetting to hit record, the Overlook Film Festival, recent horror watches, gold vs silver jewelry, steak, potatoes, The Pitt, card games, and board games. | — | ||||||

It's a fun movie to talk about, and it certainly hits different in 2026, knowing what we do now. Tangents include: the one percent, hit movies of the 90s, ideal leaves, Scrubs, and cursive (and also Cursive). DQ something different. | — | ||||||

| 1/28/26 | ![]() Year Ender: 2025 Horror | This episode has a longer introduction that reflects on my history as a feminist activist, my time in Chile, and the current state of US politics. It may not appeal to everyone, but I felt it was important to share. The review of 2025 horror releases starts around 14:00. I cover my favorites, my medium-recommends, some flops, horror TV, and what I'm looking forward to in 2026. Here's to a more active (in all senses of the word) 2026! | — | ||||||
