The Good Nurse | Bodies Bodies Bodies | Emily the Criminal
00:57:45
Guys, it finally happened: Rebecca and Jason recorded together IN PERSON for the first time in nearly three years! Did it become a cautionary tale about our Covid-weakened immune systems? Irrelevant! The important thing is that they sat together in Jason’s LA living room and discussed Tobias Lindholm’s THE GOOD NURSE (which they’d just watched together!), Halina Reijn’s BODIES BODIES BODIES, and John Patton Ford’s EMILY THE CRIMINAL. Enjoy their in-person chemistry because this might be the last time!
For our first episode of 2022 prestige movie season, we break down Nicholas Stoller’s BROS, Andrew Dominik’s BLONDE, Anne Fletcher’s HOCUS POCUS 2, and Lena Dunham’s CATHERINE CALLED BIRDY.

Black Widow | Zola | Luca | Summer of Soul | Mary J. Blige's My Life
01:39:27
In which a slight difference of opinion on Cate Shortland’s highly anticipated BLACK WIDOW leads to lethargic semi-discussions of Janicza Bravo’s ZOLA and Enrico Casarosa’s LUCA, before we’re revived by Questlove’s SUMMER OF SOUL and restore harmony by being unimpressed with Vanessa Roth’s MARY J. BLIGE’S MY LIFE.
