Guns and Gossip (with Anthony Oliveira) Apr 08, 2024

Show notes

There’s a double-feature of drama on this week’s episode, as rumors and innuendo swirl around two separate calamities: After a gun goes off during class, only Brian Krakow can reveal the parties involved — but he’s not talking; and gossip about Angela’s dalliance with Jordan reaches Patty’s ears, to everyone’s mortification. Plus, Rickie gains some unexpected depth! And we meet Rayanne’s mom, a lady of seemingly endless thrills.

I’ll be chatting with the wonderful Anthony Oliveira (Dayspring, Captain America, Wiccan & Hulkling) about how this episode unlocked his long-buried memories of the 90s, Catholic school crushes, and the time he ran away from home. And then James enters the fray and we muse about Brian’s strange (and fleeting) bravery, our own spotty sex-ed experiences, and the one (and maybe only) time I ever frightened someone.

Check out Anthony’s book Dayspring.

Dancing in the Dark (with Michael Hobbes & Terrence Moss) Apr 01, 2024

Show notes

Everyone’s in the mood for love but nobody seems to be able to make a connection in this week’s episode, “Dancing in the Dark,” with Angela longing for a kiss from Jordan, Patty hoping Graham will sweep her off her feet, and Brian hoping against hope to get some extra credit (and not just the academic kind). I’ll be talking to the delightful Michael Hobbes (Maintenance Phase, If Books Could Kill, You’re Wrong About), a first-time viewer whose opinion of the show is starting to change; and also the delightful Terrence Moss, who knows everything there is to know about television and has a few critiques of my fashion choices. And as always, James is here to share his insights — including a shocking comparison of My So-Called Life to the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion and the Christopher Isherwood novel on which Cabaret is based. I promise it’ll all make sense.
