Ginger Snaps, Bud Corner: Wolf Dream Scene
It’s our final episode before we take a summer break—and we’re going out with a howl. Jess & Nicole finish their last bites of Ginger Snaps, the cult classic that blends lycanthropy, puberty, and biting social commentary.
We cover a few things in this one: the movie Heretic, at-home piercings, gender norms, Stephen King’s A Necessary Evil, and science gone way too far. We also veer into The Substance, Nicole's obsession with author Sam Kean—specifically The Ice Pick Surgeon and The Dueling Neurosurgeons—because nothing pairs with werewolves like unethical experiments and neurology deep cuts.
Also featuring:
- Anubis & the Michigan Dogman
- People weirdly eating burgers in ads
- Jess and bodybuilders (Arnold doc drama)
- I Know What I Saw by Linda S. Godfrey
- Nicole taps into her inner Mean Girl
- Sam is a cherry hound (ewww)
- That unforgettable end bedroom scene
We’ll be back in October for one final hurrah—catch you then.
