  • Declining quality

    I used to be a big fan but the podcast has declined in quality since 2020. The hosts started to talk about nuances they cannot fully understand, so each episodes ends up being them talking about how “frustrating” (seriously, take a shot each time they say frustrating and you’d die before the ~90 minutes was up) any aspect of a movie they know is somehow problematic but can’t explain the because they are two cis white women.

  • Love It, except for a few minor issues

    I love this podcast. I’ve been listening since 2018 and have been a “Matreon” off and on since then. This podcast has completely changed the way I view all media. I have a much more critical eye and am looking forward to teaching my daughter about how to reflect on the media she is consuming. Caitlin and Jaime are so incredibly intelligent and think about movies and the representation of oppressed genders in ways that I was never exposed to as a young adult. more

  • This show!

    I love hearing their takes on these movies that we mostly know well and re- thinking from a mature, female perspective. Thank you for your humor and incite!
