What's It About?! Film Podcast: Recent Episodes
What's It About?!
The podcast where aspiring creatives watch and analyze a film to glean its thematic center, or what it’s REALLY about. Highlighting specific plotpoints, character arcs, dialogue, filmmaking techniques, and thematic symbolism to support our individual interpretations.
You're driving in a hurricane and you see three people at a bus stop... a scenario posed by Mos Def's character in today's discussion of the action/thriller, 16 BLOCKS (2006), touching on topics of police reform, fate, and human beings' capacity to change. The distance may be 16 blocks, but the path is much longer.

Louisa May Alcott's 1860s novel inspired by her own life is a great reflection on what it means to be, not just a maturing young woman, but on growing up itself.

Kicking off OctoBOOfest this year is an all-time horror classic from the mind of the much-maligned M. Night Shyamalan, THE SIXTH SENSE (1999). This film has had a lasting impact on each of us, and resurrecting it from our past has brought up feelings of isolation and loneliness, but also of hope and the people in our lives who we can truly connect with and can feel seen and heard by. Aren't we all just looking for help?

Through the trees we found a horror gem that has received a recent resurgence in popularity, 2009's JENNIFER'S BODY. With a story revolving around a teenage co-ed succubus, you better believe we talk about sex, toxic relationships, misogyny, and what exactly are our "needs" as human beings?

Not everyone gets a second chance. Not everyone gets to be the hero. For those of us who have felt like we fall outside of the margins and relegated to watching on the sidelines constantly underestimated, the 2000 sports comedy THE REPLACEMENTS is the movie for us. This movie may not win any awards, heck, you may completely forget all about it after listening to this episode, but for just more moment, we're giving it the spotlight.

It doesn't matter how fast you drive, you can't escape the consequences of your decisions. Who decides when a punishment is enough? Where's the line that if crossed, can't be come back from? In our discussion of the 2017 Edgar Wright action film BABY DRIVER, we see a young man who's trapped by the circumstances of his life, forcing him to do some bad things. He tries to drown it out with music and fast rides, but can he?

If you're on the hunt for a fun show, then my dear, you've found it as today we're discussing the Clark Gable/Katharine Hepburn starring comedy BRINGING UP BABY (1938). Much like Susan Vance, this episode was very chaotic. There's some crazy audio in here, but we decided to just roll with it. It kind of feels right for this film. A leopard can't change it's spots, and neither can we, so... enjoy!

It's a f***ing good time as we discuss the power of words, the beauty of language, and Meaghan's traumatizing Spelling Bee story.

In this episode, we discuss not only big social issues like classism, sexism, and social toxicity but also topics on a more personal level, like impostor syndrome and learning to let go. We do lose Meaghan for a bit at the very end of the episode, but we got her back at the end!

If movies have taught me anything, magic is anything but practical, but in this 90s cult classic, it seems to be pretty useful. Whether it's to rid ourselves of grief, to find our true loves, or just to make us breakfast in the morning, we've all wished for magical powers at some point in our lives, but is it all as simple as it seems? Today we explore these thoughts and more as we ask the question, PRACTICAL MAGIC (1998), what's it about?!

At some point in our lives, we've all wanted to escape. We wanted to get away from whatever it is that's currently causing us woe. But eventually, we learn that the inverse isn't always so much better. Running away from our fears and shame only further isolates us and keeps us away from those that we love. In this episode, we are once again joined by friend of the show, IAN MAULDIN, to discuss yet another Neil Gaiman fantasy journey, MIRRORMASK (2005). Brace yourselves for a weird one!

And though these two characters barely even speak, the film manages to say so much about capitalism, environmentalism, and strangely enough, human connection.

Is it fate that we find ourselves talking about SLEEPLESS IN SEATLE (1993) this week, or is it just a culmination of a series of random events strung together that eventually arrive at a result? Well... we don't really have an answer for that. However, there are times in our lives with things just seem to coalesce to point us in some direction. You can either follow that or let it pass you by, but where you end up could be vastly different.

*TRIGGER WARNING We had chosen to watch JOHN WICK (2014)*before this tragedy took place on March 27th, 2023. After we'd heard about the shooting in Nashville, we considered postponing this episode, but instead, we decided to use this film in order to discuss some of the things we are feeling about in this sad time. However, we understand that watching and discussing a movie that includes so much gun violence in the wake of this school shooting may be triggering for some, so we fully respect if you decide to skip this episode. Our hearts and condolences go out to the victims of this horrible event and to the entire Nashville community. ALL OF OUR LOVE.

HELLO! The many facets of who we are is complicated, to say the least. Sometimes it takes really walking in another person’s shoes to understand yourself better. And sometimes, those shoes are high heels, and that person is a 60-year-old English woman. Join is in the makeup chair, as we discuss the 1993 family comedy classic, MRS. DOUBTFIRE.

When the moon hits your eyes like a big pizza pie, that's amore! That's amore indeed. In today's episode, we discuss the 1987 Oscar-nominated romantic dramedy, MOONSTRUCK. Some of the themes we were struck by were love, courtship, consent, searching for happiness, and where does the magic come from and where has it gone? Come and dance in the moonlight with us!

What lurks beneath the surface of ourselves? What are those parts of yourself that you try to submerge and hide away? Is it greed? Or anger? Or fear? The internal scars we bare can manifest just as viscerally as the physical ones. We discuss these ideas and more in this week's episode where we ask the question, "What is JAWS (1975), about?!"

Miyazaki's PRINCESS MONONOKE (1997) is both beautifully animated and thematically rich, guiding us, eyes unclouded, into discussions of industrialism, the dichotomy of nature, the gift snd curse of trauma, and what it means to actually live. The kodamas are calling! Let's follow!

TRIGGER WARNING Some of the topics and themes discussed in this week's episode are sensitive in nature and potentially triggering for some listeners. Please use your own discretion while listening.
This week we're getting down and dirty with Dirk Diggler and the rest of the characters of 1997's BOOGIE NIGHTS. A film that dives head first into the oft-shunned world of the Hollywood porn industry. With themes of sexuality and sexual shame, self-worth, personal identity, pursuit of purpose, and societal taboo, things get spicy in this discussion. LiGHTS! CAMERA! ACTION! Let's keep rockin' and let's keep rollin'.

We're going back to the days of black and white as we dip our toes into a Hollywood classic. We say, "buongiono!" to everyone as we take a trip to 1950s Rome, meeting up with Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn for a ROMAN HOLIDAY (1953). Join us as we talk about the small moments in life that offer us respite from the day-to-day grind, and even question if life is even designed for happiness. No work here today, because we're going on holiday!

**TRIGGER WARNING* The topic of SA is discussed during our conversation about the 1991 Oscar-winning feminist crime film THELMA & LOUISE***. SA is a major element of this film and is unavoidable in discussing the film's themes and deeper meaning, so if this is a triggering subject for you, maybe skip this episode. We'll understand. :) However, if you're willing to come along on a ride with us to discuss trauma, sexism, and major turning points we've had in our own lives. It's certainly a wild episode.

The first moving coming right down Santa Claus Lane is, rather aptly, THE SANTA CLAUSE (1994)! Part Christmas classic, part body horror nightmare, all holiday nostalgia.

Is this podcast a success? If we had thousands of views on each episode, would that make us feel like we'd accomplished something? Perhaps. But that's what this week's film, MOLLY'S GAME (2017), had us thinking about. How do we define success for ourselves and where is that definition coming from? Do you raise the stakes or do you cash in your chips and get out before you're too deep in a hole? That and more in this week's episode!

Part 2 of our journey through Wakanda, this week we went back to the theaters to see BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER (2022). There were so many questions heading into this movie regarding all of the many production troubles the film faced, including the death of Chadwick Boseman. How would they handle it, could the film movie forward without him? The way someone responds to grief and trauma varies from person to person, and that truth is on full display both in the film, and behind the scenes.

Superhero fatigue is real. However, some films are so culturally significant that they transcend the genre. 2018's BLACK PANTHER is one such film. This MCU film had us talking a lot about power. What does it mean to have power and influence? Does one wield power or reserve it? What responsibility do those with power and resources have to others? And how do we personally respond when we're given power? T'chaka says, "it's hard for a good man to be king." Is that true? What do you think?

This week, we are joined by friend of the show, Ruben Adorno, to discuss the 2022 Palm d'Or winner, TRIANGLE OF SADNESS (2022). This film is a truly outrageous social satire that brought up themes of politics, power dynamics, social structures, manipulation, and the masks we employ to get what we want. You can try to relax, but it's really hard to relax when there's so much to be worried about!
Special thanks to Ruben for joining us! You can find him on Instagram @rubendavidadorno

What an excellent day for an exorcism. In this, the Halloween season, we are going way back to a horror classic, THE EXORCIST (1973). With some very obvious religious overtones, we dive into elements of Christianity and Catholicism as well as themes of faith, guilt, internalized trauma, and the lengths we will go to protect ourselves from evil. The power of Christ compels you-- to listen in and join the discussion.

This week, we're taking a little trip to the Land of the Dead to talk a little bit about PIXAR's 2017 international hit, COCO. In this episode we touch on some of our experiences as artists regarding the soul and external validation, the results of generational trauma, and culture, as well as some of our favorite memories of loved ones who are no longer with us. As Miguel says, "our love for each other will live on forever." This is truly an episode to remember!

It's a perfect day and nothing's standing in our way of talking about the wonderfully colorful, fish-out-of-water comedy LEGALLY BLONDE (2001). Along with featured special guest, Roni Paige (@roni_paige), we discuss social labels, self-confidence, beauty standards, sexism, and the pressures our patriarchal structure imposes on women (yes really!), all through a hilarious pink and scented lens. We just think it gives it that something extra. Don't you think?

"Call me for a ride. Call me, Call me anytime," is the main hook from "Call Me," by 80s pop rock band, Blondie. This song was written as the main theme for this week's film, AMERICAN GIGOLO (1980), a story about a high-class male escort who finds himself amidst a suspicious murder investigation. Writer/Director Paul Schrader's film guided us through discussions of emotional vulnerability, physical intimacy, the commoditizing of love, and of course... sex. So cover me with kisses or cover me with likes and shares. Either way, it's gonna be an interesting ride.

In this episode we talk about personal growth, comfort zones, toxic relationships, and the experience of learning to let go and move on. Much like Peter, we all shout, "you suck!" to ourselves every once in a while, but you don't have to listen to that voice. Go find your Dracula musical!

It's how we decide to cope with these existential reflections that truly defines us. We explore these ideas and more in this week's discussion of 1983's THE BIG CHILL.

So here's the thing... literally! This week our special guest NATE STEPHENSON has brought us the 1982 cult classic, THE THING. Within the cold cold ice of this Antarctic set story, we uncovered more than just a mysterious, shape-shifting alien. We unearthed themes of trust vs skepticism, toxic masculinity, and the brutality of nature itself. If you want to go a little further beyond the typical, "who's a thing at the end," conversation, you said join us. Come on! You can trust us... or can you?!
Once again special thanks to NATE STEPHENSON for joining us in this epsiode! Show him some love by following him @lucentturtle or @grumpypoetry, or by purchasing your tickets for HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS for the LA folks in the audience.

Things got witchy during the recording of this episode. Unfortunately, there were some technical difficulties that resulted in a decent portion of this discussion having to be cut. However, our discussion of 1977 and 2018's SUSPIRIA with special guest, DANE DIAMOND, still manages to be spellbinding. One, a cinematic touchstone, the other, a haunting homage. The themes of power, manipulation, deceit, and love culminate into an intricate and mesmerizing dance in these two supernatural dramas separated by over 40 years.

Kids grow up so fast, especially when they've made a wish on a mysterious carnival game that comes true. This week, we talk about the body-swap comedy that became the surprise success; 1988's BIG. This iconic film has permeated pop culture from the very beginning. However, amidst the hilarious situational comedy, we found ourselves feeling a little heavier than expected. Watching a kid live inside an adult's body reminded us of our own inner child and what we've lot over time, but also how important it is to live and not skip ahead.

This coming-of-age teen classic brought out our feelings of privilege, romantic relationships, social obligation, and self/peer perception. Is the way others see you really that important? Can societal pressure actually be used for good? Should I change up my wardrobe?! AS IF! We'll save that discussion for another podcast.

Work, work, work. Sometimes that seems like all we ever do, at least that is when we're not talking about movies. This week we find ourselves sequestered in a tiny cubicle together as we discuss the workplace satire that rose to cult classic status in the early 00's; OFFICE SPACE. Corporate apathy, hustle culture, capitalism, employee exploitation, and enough workplace to make you wanna burn the place to the ground. Um... yeah we're dragging ourselves into the office for this one. Just a couple of no-talent ass-clowns talkin' movies, I guess!

This week are we in a fairytale? Or some form of purgatory? Joined by special guest, MEAGHAN BRANHAM, we're taking a quick trip to a little town about an hour outside of Brussels. No, we're not in Namur. We're in fin' Bruges. Redemption, retribution, guilt, forgiveness, shame, the justification of death, and the meaning of life. There's a lot to be found inside this film. And since we can see the view from down here, we're getting a different perspective of Martin McDonagh's 2008 feature directorial debut, IN BRUGES***.
Special thanks to special guest, MEAGHAN BRANHAM (@meaghan_jane61) for bringing this film to us!

For this episode, we're strapping on the pumps and squeezing into some sexy lingerie as we talk about HUSTERS (2019). Based on a true story, Hustlers is a film that explores power dynamics, classicism, materialism, capitalism, and gender politics all through the lives of a group of strippers. How do people gain or lose power in a relationship? When in our lives have we found ourselves, "doing the dance?" And how do we behave in strip clubs? Is the game truly rigged, or is there still space to succeed within the rules? Let's just see!

The possibility of physical and mental collapse is now very real because in this episode of the What's It About?! Film Podcast, we're discussing the drug-fueled cult classic, FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS. Even just a tiny taste of this film was enough to send us into conversations about drug experimentation, addiction, societal pressures, freedom from fear, and deep feelings of existential dread. No one should be asked to handle this trip... but we did anyway!

Today we got ourselves a notion to discuss a film that holds a special place in our hearts; the underrated Disney Animation classic, A GOOFY MOVIE (1995). We found this film to be surprisingly earnest and incredibly vulnerable, reminding us to take a moment to listen to each other's hearts and bringing us on a journey of understanding. Whether it's relating to our parents, standing out amongst our peers, or just trying to be cool, we all just want to be seen. While maybe not the most epic Disney film of all time, despite the name, A GOOFY MOVIE lived up to its millennial cult status due to its genuine sincerity, and just a touch of goofiness. Not to mention a sensational soundtrack!
Thank you, Sara Fidelholtz for joining us in today's episode. There's, "no-BODY else but you," we'd rather have on us!

We're taking a risk this week as we explore a film that has personal significance to us both; the 1983 coming-of-age sex comedy, RISKY BUSINESS. Beyond some of its more iconic moments (I'm lookin' at you Old Time Rock and Roll scene), Risky Business reminded us of the times we've taken risks in our own lives, or sometimes more poignantly when we didn't. Is simply taking risks the answer to all our problems? And if so, which risks do you take? When is it worth the risk? Or is this all just an over-romanticized lie made up by films like this one? It's hard to be sure, but as Miles says, "sometimes you gotta say 'what the f**k.'" So, let's give it shot.
Next week, we're goin' goofy with..:

*TRIGGER WARNING*** In this episode we touch upon the issue of gun violence and the recent Robb Elementary tragedy in Uvalde, TX. Our deepest condolences go out to the families of the victims and the entire community of Uvalde.
In this week's episode, we are, "putting our souls at hazard," in our relentless pursuit of the hidden meaning within NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN (2007). The enigmatic Anton Chigurgh, played masterfully by Javier Bardem, casts a foreboding shadow over the entire film as his seemingly unstoppable tirade rips through the story leaving dead bodies and more questions than answers in his wake. Listen as the ideas of order vs. chaos, free will vs. fate, and the weight of wisdom knocked us back like a psychopath wielding a cattle gun.
Next week, we're taking a risk with...:
RISKY BUSINESS (1983)

Ricardo and Seth find themselves wading into the deep end of comedy this week as they parse through the farce; A FISH CALLED WANDA (1988). This Oscar-nominated heist comedy spearheaded by Monty Python legend John Cleese, submerges its audience thoroughly into a comedic tradition not oft experienced by filmgoers at the time. Through fast-paced dialog, physical comedy, and sight gags, A FISH CALLED WANDA connected with its audience and found massive success. However, what lies beneath all the main characters' lying, back-stabbing, and double-crossing? Other than $3 million in diamonds? As always... SPOILERS AHEAD!

In this episode, Ricardo and Seth dive in to the drearier side of cinema by exploring one of the most highly regarded horror films of the last 10 years, Robert Eggers's, THE WITCH (2015). This "elevated" horror goes to some pretty dark places, exploring themes of oppression and repression, moral corruption, and the true meaning of what it means to be a "sinner." THE WITCH is heavily influenced by religious themes, Puritanism and Christianity in particular, and so it's impossible to discuss the film without touching on these subjects. However, within all the theological overtones, Ricardo and Seth find themselves grappling with their own faith, the nature of the soul, and where they themselves may be susceptible to corruption, because who wouldn't want to live deliciously?

In this episode, Ricardo and Seth are toon-ing into an 80's classic, WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT (1988). This film is undoubtedly a major piece of Hollywood history, but within the mash-up of zany cartoon characters and classic noir setup, lies the heart of a story that speaks to social issues of racism, capitalism, and exploitation, as well as how one's sense of play can disappear over time.

In this episode, Ricardo and Seth revisit their childhoods with this 90's live-action adaptation of a 60's cartoon, GEORGE OF THE JUNGLE (1997). While the conversation ran a little shorter than usual, Ricardo and Seth discovered a sweet center underneath the obvious slapstick of this children's film. Not to mention, a few moments to fawn over the extremely hunky Brendan Fraser. :)
Also, our apologies for the audio in this one. Ricardo was recording outside of his usual setup, and made do with what he could. SORRY!

In this episode, Ricardo and Seth discuss one of the most highly-discussed films of all time, THE MATRIX (1999). While this film is densely packed full of esoteric symbolism and existential philosophies, our two hosts instead decide to focus on some of the more character-driven and personal themes the film presents dipping into religion, faith, and their own personal feelings on self-worth and purpose.
