IT'S ALRIGHT! IT'S OKAY!! THERE'S A NEW EPISODE TO LISTEN TO!! JIAH TOLD ME SOOOOOOOOO! This month we're covering the 1999 cult classic documentary AMERICAN MOVIE. Brought to us by Chris Smith and Sarah Price, we follow the trials and tribulations of filmmaker Mark Borchardt as he desperately tries to finish his horror films NORTHWESTERN and COVEN.

This doc feels like it was filmed entirely in another dimension. The more time we spend in Milwaukee with Mark and his crew (especially his childhood friend Mike Schank) the more we bare witness to the never-ending struggle of being an artist and the toll it takes to fulfill an artistic vision. Which is something we definitely do NOT relate to. At all. Not in the slightest. Nope. No problems over here. Making art is EASY and FUN.

On Mondays, we podcast! This week we discuss the 2004 Mark Waters, Tina Fey classic MEAN GIRLS. Also the new horny musical I guess. Also the gang gets real with true stories of bullying, school yard fights, yearbook autographs and...TV Jocks? I don't know. Either way, this episode is Fetch.

Do you hate starting your day with a confrontation? Then you should listen to our new episode instead! That's right, we're back and covering Paul Thomas Anderson's 2017 offering PHANTOM THREAD. Starring Daniel Day Lewis, Vicky Krieps and Lesley Manville. We talk all things fashion, breakfast and routine.

We strongly recommend listening alone or with headphones as not to disturb your loved ones at breakfast.
