FSBA Podcast

This week on FSBA, we’re diving face-first into a movie so emotionally chaotic it might just be your ex's favorite film: Closer (2004), aka “Four Hot People Being Horrible to Each Other for 104 Minutes.” Jude Law leads the way as a mopey obituary writer caught in a love square so toxic it makes The Bachelor look like a Quaker meeting.

We ask the important questions:

• Is Jude Law actually the villain or just British?
• Did Natali...

This week on FSBA, we strapped ourselves into a 1998 emotional rollercoaster called Anywhere But Here, where Susan Sarandon plays the most chaotic mom since Mrs. George in Mean Girls, and Natalie Portman just wants to go literally anywhere but here—preferably Yale. We discuss car rides that last longer than the plot, questionable parenting advice, and whether fleeing to Beverly Hills with zero plan is visionary or just a cry for he...

Grab your tissues and your 2000s Walmart catalog, because FSBA is heading to the small Oklahoma town where the milk spills, the babies scream, and Natalie Portman says, “You know what? I will give birth in aisle 7.” In this episode, we recap Where the Heart Is, a film that taught us that your boyfriend might abandon you, your mom might scam you, but at least the kindly strangers at the local library have infinite patience.

Julia Roberts plays a teacher at a 1950s college who’s like, “Ladies, you can do more than just get married and look pretty!” Her students? Not so convinced.

We’re pirouetting straight into the drama, the sass, and the spandex of Center Stage (2000) — the movie that made you believe dance was life and Cooper Nielsen was hot (even though he was the worst).

"Stillwater? More like Still-waiting-for-their-big-break!" Join us as we dive deep into Almost Famous, the only movie that made us wish we were teenage music journalists in the '70s (minus the questionable parenting). We'll talk groupies—sorry, Band-Aids—classic rock vibes, and why no one will ever be as effortlessly cool as Penny Lane.

It’s all happening... or at least, it almost is.

In today’s episode, we’re taking a look at the current political climate—yep, it’s a bit messy—and comparing it to the themes in American History X. While the movie is intense, it sparks important conversations about division, change, and what it takes to break free from toxic ideologies. We’ll break it all down in a way that’s thoughtful but not too heavy, connecting the film’s lessons to what’s happening today. So, grab a coffee,...
