Episode 427.5: Canada's Drag Race S4 E2 - QV-She *PREVIEW* Nov 26, 2023

Show notes

We’re not quite buying what they’re selling for this week’s QVShe home shopping challenge. From fancy flats to party ponchos, the queens hawk crap on live TV, try to make “Daddeldoo” happen and in some cases completely fall apart under the pressure to sell bras with pockets. The runway is a rocky road of precious stones, but guest judge Rajah O’Hara is a welcomed addition, as is the Golden Beaver twist. Kitten not only wins this week, but may work at Home Depot, and we say see see ya later to Sisi. Indeed, that’ll do.

Show notes

t’s time to separate the beasts from the babies, the monsters of rock group challenge is (almost) here!

Episode 426: Canada's Drag Race S4 Ep1 - "Premiere Ball" Nov 19, 2023

Show notes

Eleven new queens of the north have entered, subsequently exited, then re-entered en masse through that maple leaf shaped door for a new season of Canada’s Drag Race! In what is essentially one big Meet the Queens, we get a showgirls mini-challenge, workroom banter, a social justice alcove, a visit from Tegan and Sara in their best raincoats and a first impressions runway for the true north trio of Brooke, Brad and Tracy. We’re already having a great Girlfriend Experience, but we loved when Sisi bonked her head on the lamp and then fell off the couch. We also have a lot to say about Alanis, Aunt Linda at the wedding, the Real Gays of WeHo, Season 2 of “Up the Lakeside” and Fleetwood Mac.

Episode 425: Dragula S5 Ep 3 - "Ghosts of the Gatehouse" Nov 17, 2023

Show notes

We’re checking into the spookiest Marriott you’ve ever seen for this week’s haunted hotel floorshow! Throb takes it to the penthouse suite, but is bested by JayKay’s sentient bar cart. Nio nearly says “I do” to a second win, despite some cold feet in the Lab, Anna misses her shot but hits our bullseyes, Fantasia and Jarvis get notes and Satanna briefly quits before three of them lay on some cots while rats give them tickles.

Episode 424: Dragula S5 Ep 2 - "Children of the Can" Nov 10, 2023

Show notes

Things get gross for this week’s filth-focused floor show. To the surprise of no one who watched the trailer, JayKay comes back just in time to chug sludge and win the opportunity to force Cynthia to do her makeup in a dirty Port-a-Potty. Speaking of which, we have a lot to say about Cynthia, from her bad mom vibes to her meth mom presentation. There’s something off about Onyx’s critiques, we kind of loved Anna’s bananas reveal and can agree that Throb was two scoops above the rest when it came to creating a Trash Can Kid.

Episode 423: Alright Scary - "The Good Son" (1993) Nov 06, 2023

Show notes

We’re ending Alright Scary the way we started it, with another slick early 90s thriller delivering a TV movie story with a lobster dinner budget, a sweeping score by a legendary composer and a rising Hollywood star front and center of any promotional materials. 1993’s “The Good Son” is a chilly, unsettling turn in Macaulay Culkin’s career, but we’re more concerned with Wendy Crewson’s Susan, the Good Mom, caught between Henry the Bad Seed of coastal Maine and Mark who believes she’s the reincarnation of his dead mother. And let’s not even talk about Connie, but let’s definitely talk about the implications of that iconic cliffside climax. We also get those Culkins straight, sing the spoiler-free praises of “Orphan” and try to get to the bottom of this treehouse situation.

Episode 422: Dragula S5 Ep 1 - "Terror in the Woods" Nov 05, 2023

Show notes

Spooky season may be over but a new season of Dragula has just begun! The Boulets welcome an airport van full of new monsters over the river and through the woods to a snazzier, sleeker set with a lot more lights and a lot less spiders all over anyone's tits. We have some early favorites, from spooky kook Jarvis to cigarette mom Cynthia, a new rattle we’ll likely be repeating all season, a lot of trouble with the name Satanna and some very sharp words for a certain DVD cover.

Episode 421: Alright Scary - "Scream 3" (2000) Oct 29, 2023

Show notes

It’s an Alright Scary tradition to revisit the Scream franchise just in time for Halloween, and this year we’re Marying out on “Scream 3”! Despite a reputation for being a bit of a slump in the saga, we found a lot to appreciate—specifically Parker Posey. Neve’s back in her signature earth tones, Gail’s bangs have been slashed, Scott Foley inspires an important ranking of the Great Scotts of the era, and despite the lack of Kevin Williamson, the script has some surprisingly astute commentary about the dark underbelly of Hollywood (especially as a Miramax production).

Episode 420: Alright Scary - "Troll 2" (1990) Oct 22, 2023

Show notes

Alright Scary makes a pit stop in Nilbog for 1990's cult classic,"Troll 2"! This is of course not actually a sequel to "Troll" and doesn't even necessarily feature trolls, but it does have a hot dad, a veritable Mary Tyrone of a mother, MAGA Holly, a sweaty camper full of dudes, a corny witch with dry lips, the absolute worst minivan in the world, lots of daytime horror, so much green frosting, and some Grandpa ex machina in the form of a double decker bologna sandwich. Don't piss on hospitality and beware vegetarian liberals, or they'll eat your mom!
