Tore off the veil
This podcast is thinly-veiled Critical Race Theory, without the veil. Why, in such a time of unease and upheaval, must two ladies “irreverently tear down” classic movies, off their “lofty pedestals”? Why not instead, ladies, use your researching skills and inquisitive natures to discover and shine spotlights on brave, counter-cultural figures, living lifestyles that were before their time, and frowned upon or tucked away into corners by history? Find things to praise, which have not gotten their due credit, rather than tearing down, and being critical of, things which many people hold dear. Do they need to be mocked and shamed in the modern day, just because they’re “old” now? Some of us see this podcast for what it is, and are entitled to not liking it, and are free to say so. A podcast praising past, hidden figures though, would interest many many people, I’m sure, whilst not damaging history in the process.

Don’t bother with this one.

Hilarious, whip-smart, and refreshingly un-pretentious. Finally, an antidote to the staid commentary on movies we all know we “should” watch. A fantastic listen for anyone who has ever been stuck at a too-serious Oscars party with no snacks and ex-film majors. Five stars!

I look forward to each week’s episode and this podcast partially inspired me to create my own work. As someone who has seen all 100 movies, I find their opinions funny even if I actually liked the movie they trash. Would also recommend Unspooled, which also reviews 2007’s AFI list.
