116: Full-tilt Boogie Sep 13, 2024

Show notes

On this week's See Also, Kate and Brodie are both prepping for some time away, plus Jinxy recaps the Melbourne premiere of Beetlejuice and BL describes a bizarro time seeing Blink Twice at Kino's "Cinema 8".

On the docket this week are chats about two very brilliant and very different films: Coralie Fargeat's The Substance (skip from 32:37 to 53:43 if you don't want spoilers) and Jane Schoenbrun's I Saw the TV Glow. We chat about how it's been a big year for chicks shooting up, finding a bit of flesh to poke an earring in, listening to what a film is saying – even if it's not speaking to you – and being simply a lesbian. Also: What was your Buffy journey and What Was The Name of Your High School Band? Is South Yarra the SoHo of Melbourne? Is asking that question totally insufferable? All that and more, this week on See Also!

115: Only in South Yarra – See Also x United Places Sep 06, 2024

Show notes

It's a momentous day. Months after brazenly begging any listeners with the keys to a boutique hotel to invite us to stay, we're doing it. We're podding from a suite. Specifically, a suite at the United Places Hotel Botanic Gardens. They invited us to stay and we've spent the weekend seeing the sights of South Yarra, sipping martinis and eating the entirety of the ocean. We couldn't be more smug and insufferable thank you very much!! You can be equally annoying when you post up in this glamorous hotel – book using the code SEEALSO for 15% off your stay!

114: Give it Time Aug 30, 2024

Show notes

On this week's See Also, Kate and Brodie are collecting themselves post-MIFF. Jinxy is a little snail, sans memoir, and BL is similarly on the hunt for a new shell to call home.

They debrief on the movies they loved, the people they met and the iconic nistas of fashion they've been interviewing. Jinxy hosted an on-stage talk with Hollywood costume designer Deborah L. Scott and BL interviewed Charli XCX for the cover of Vogue Australia's September issue.

Then we discuss the recent investigation into the troubling "boys' club" at Swillhouse and the restaurant group's history of perpetuating harmful workplace practices, as reported in the Sydney Morning Herald. If this isn't something you're in a place to listen to, please skip ahead from 24:35 to 43:55.

Show notes

In this first Q&A episode, Kate and Brodie answer pressing (and mildly stressful) questions about iconic looks and beloved books, where you should move, how they met, where to dine solo, how to be chic at the footy, and what breakfast to order in Melbourne. Bisou! Mwah!

111: Muff Soup Aug 09, 2024

Show notes

It's the Trap by M Night Shyamalan podcast! Kate and Brodie have been to see English, a new play at MTC, a new RHONY teaser is out featuring the real-life gay friend of Jenna Lyons, Jinxy is having her "ball dropping down a la All Fours by Miranda July" birthday and is saving the article about Katherine Hepburn being an awful neighbour, she's celebrating in a very Kate Culture way – watching short films about architecture at a Robin Boyd-designed house, let us podcast from SUR LA MER in St Kilda!!!! Both of us are doom-prepping for a fortnight of film festival madness in the kitchen. Neither of us will bring a thermos of soup into the cinema but only one of us is making MUFF SOUP. BL has started following a new TikTok chef who's been cooking in Liz Lange's Hamptons house aka THE GREY GARDENS HOUSE. The kid from Presumed Innocent looks like the girl from Hereditary.

Then we recollect our night watching the first session of M Night Shyamalan's Trap at Thornbury Picture House. Incredible, amazing, loved every second. We won't spoil the end, but we do dig into the plot points, most of which are the setup and concept of the story, okay? We each shout out our Hayley Mills faves: Kate's is Whistle Down the Wind and Brodie's is The Parent Trap IV: Hawaiian Honeymoon. All the greats are here: Alison Pill! Kid Cudi! New nepo baby pop star (?) Saleka Shyamalan! And of course: Millennial Gay Root Josh Hartnett.

Listen to The Saturday Quiz podcast this week to hear us not know about geography or actors (oops!!). The next two weeks we'll only be posting for the Hogg Hive on Patreon.

110: Skin feel: on tradwives, Twister (singular) and Kinds of Kindness Aug 02, 2024

Show notes

On this week's See Also, Brodie has a correction and a retraction and the Kate Jinx media blitz continues. BL's been hosting an elaborate Christmas in July (any excuse for ham) and Kate's been going Locked Bag Aunty mode.

They coincidentally watched Twister (singular) at the same time and NEED to podcast live from Hoyts D-BOX. Brodie reports back from the long night at the movies watching Kinds of Kindness and they go deep on the tradwife expose setting TikTok alight.

109: Whale Babies Jul 26, 2024

Show notes

On this week's See Also, Kate's been eating at a southside fave and Brodie gives a debrief of a newly refurb'ed pub in the north. Kate saw whales and got split up on a flight – who's the heir and who's the spare? And they discuss Shannen Doherty's list of people banned from her funeral, having enemies and caring what people think.

Then, they trade mini-reviews of some things they've watched recently: Longlegs, Lady in the Lake, A Quiet Place Day One, Renegade Nell, Maxxxine, The Fall Guy, Shutter Island, and that clip of Lisa Kudrow saying it's time for The Comeback to come back. Valerie Cherish on Hot Ones and How Long Gone when??

106: This is My Life Jun 28, 2024

Show notes

We're re-releasing our This Is My Life episode after our sold out screenings of the film in Melbourne earlier this week. (Thank you all for coming!) It's a real trip down memory line, taking us back to episode 20 of the pod, to 2022, to the coining of the term POODLE EPISODE!!

Here's what we wrote about it then:

This week, Kate and Brodie are talking about The Girls™️: Nora, Meg, Samantha and Gabby. It's our first Toy Poodle Episode (you'll see why) and it's all about Nora Ephron's 1992 directorial debut, This is My Life. There might not be Also Alsos this week, but don't worry, there's still plenty of further reading and ideas to Add To Cart – or at least Open in New Tab.

Starring Julie "literal Marge Simpson" Kavner as hopeful stand-up comic Dottie Ingils, and Samantha Mathis and Gabby Hoffman as her daughters Erica and Opel, This is My Life is about everything that matters: mums! daughters! sisters! ambition! Carrie Fisher!

Co-written by Nora and her sister Delia, the film was adapted from Meg Wolitzer's novel This is Your Life. As a special treat for us and you, Meg was kind enough to write in to See Also with her memories of having her book adapted by Nora.
