Episode 66: Life is Not a Cabaret Jun 17, 2022

Show notes

I've developed an unhealthy obsession with the Real Housewives, let's face it. But for as much vapid bickering over white wine as there is on any iteration of this show, every once in a while it gets refreshingly real. This week I'm diving into all the micro-moments of RHONY icon Bethenny Frankel's Season 11 meltdown in Miami over LuAnn's caba-razy behavior while in supposed recovery for her alcoholism. Not to be missed is Best Supporting Tinsley, sad old Barbara, the mirrored martini glass, that napkin, and the scooping of the hair. It's melodramatic, it's campy, it's dark and it's absolutely fascinating reality television. Radio Andy RHONY Live Reading: https://bit.ly/3mXJXE0 Get in touch with me!

Episode 65: All About All About My Mother (w/ Leanne Kubicz!) Feb 15, 2022

Show notes

In the Details is back this week/month/year to queen out on Pedro Almodovar's homage to mothers, actresses and the modern melodrama, 1999's "All About My Mother." Joining me this week is the always brilliant Leanne Kubicz to help me dive into the world of Almodovar, his themes and references and of course, his chicas, as well as his nuanced and compassionate representation of trans people and HIV/AIDS. Plus a bevy of references, from Douglas Sirk to All About Eve to some of his previous movies, as well as the most beautiful shade of red you've ever seen, Best Supporting Agrado and a wonderfully unexpected ending.

Episode 64: Fever Dreams on VHS Oct 28, 2021

Show notes

Just in time for Halloween, I've curated a fantasy movie marathon of some of the more questionable choices in the horror movie aisle of yesteryear's video store. These are not just bad movies (though I don't know if any of them would qualify as good), they're surreal and delirious and sometimes totally fascinating. And they're all available on Youtube! Before we get into it, I spend a few minutes hating on "Halloween KIlls." It's the worst. Get in touch with me! Email: inthedetailspod@gmail.com Twitter: @colindrucker Instagram: @colindrucker_

Episode 63: Panic on the Platform Oct 14, 2021

Show notes

One of the rings of hell is likely a New York City subway station in the 80's. And it probably looks like the 59th Street stop depicted in 1980's super sleazy "Maniac." I can't say I recommend the movie, but the subway scene with the nurse is a terrifying glimpse into a bygone era of the MTA. (Subway station bathrooms!) But first: I have attended "Mass" and I have a gospel to preach. Maniac scene: https://youtu.be/7I6Mf-UPYv4 "Man on a Train" short movie: https://youtu.be/k0poUY6B7aM Get in touch with me!
