It's been too long yet again since we've talked fashion on the pod. Jai is back and we're catching up on the recent breaking news of Galliano at Zara and what that means, Oscars fashion, and we talk our favorite collections from the past 'fashion month'. Some mentioned are Christian Dior, Marni, Yohji Yamamoto, Chanel, Tom Ford, and more!

I'm so glad that a film still from Tumblr over 10 years ago brought me to this film. What sprouted as a possible fashion editorial, ended up being one of the most original and thought provoking films I've seen in quite a while.

Daisies from 1966 is a wild ride of surrealism, freedom, and feminism by Vera Chytilová. I can see how so many film makers are inspired by t...

I was over the moon when I discovered another person that watched the Love After Lockup series/franchise. I've been a fan of Kelli Williams' and had a chat w/ her ages ago here on the pod but couldn't wait to have her back to talk one of the shows I love so much. 

We get into this current season of 'Love During Lockup' and why this format isn't the strongest and we basically bounce around and talk memorable and unhinged moments thr...

We're wrapping up this drama filled season of All Stars finally. From the last minute messy games, Maya fighting for life, and Scott's 'Real Housewives' reads it went to hell at the end there. So lock in for another 2.5 hour episode of two fans reliving the last dramatic bits of this whirlwind of a series.

I had originally planned to do an episode talking about season 3 of DC and one of the best episodes that lead us into the Pacey/Joey era anyway. However since James Van Der Been recently passed away I went back to the pilot of the show again. I had Stephen come on to talk about how millennials owe podcasting to Dawson Leery, his other roles, and hear set stories from when Stephen did extra work. 

Now we also talk about 'The Longest...

Yes, basically all of the things I thought/said in the last episode, disregard. As always things change daily if not hourly on this show and Ashley is back to break down more of this mess happening. 

We get into Carrington being the 'himbo' of the house, how Belle has lost us, Whit's weird behavior,  and why they need banish the Heart Rate Challenge for good.

I've been a bad Islander and fell super behind with doing these recaps.Well that's sort of half true, I've been watching and keeping up but haven't been reviewing. Needless to say there have been so many dustups and hurricanes blown through as of now but I'm recapping eps 19-23.

 I'm talking the weirdness of the US transition into the Villa, Curtis' weird behavior, and how so many people are just piping up creat...

It's time for another run around with our favorite Real Housewives. Callum returns to talk the many highs and lows of the girls we love to watch. This episode we're talking SLC, Potomac, and Bev Hills (and the lack of pizzaz). We sprinkle in a few current hot topics to keep things current and just have a good ol ki.

Yeah, you saw that right. I successfully bullied Ashley into picking up with the new Love Island All Stars series. And yes we did a 2.5hr episode on it. Basically we're getting into the meat of the second week at the villa. We talk about how Scott is a chaos demon but never wrong, the vanilla triangle between Samie, Lucinda, and Cieran, and why we love Hurricane Belle. Proving yet again that the series 5 girls remain elite in Love ...

It's almost time for the Winter Olympics and what better way than to use it as a theme for the next 90s movie episode. Since Charles is an Olympic expert you're in for a real treat with this one. While the movie itself is kinda of part Lifetime movie part Melrose Place episode, it really doesn't stray too far from the actual dynamics in pairs skating. 

We get into skating fashion, hilarious quotes, and count the montages throughout.

It's time (yet again) for me to put all my Love Island knowledge to use and the start of a new season of All Stars. At first I thought it was lame but then I thought this is really the Super Bowl for the fans. Since we know the lore of the past Islanders, it only can get messier.  

I'm getting into Scott being this seasons 'bone carrier', the boys being whack, and Whitney (my girl) yet again being bigger than th...

It's the first *new episode of 2026. Yes, I know we're well past the New Year salutations but alas. This was the perfect type of film to start off the year and a new mood. The Daytrippers have been on my list for a while and it really scratched that itch when it comes to a quirky 90s comedy. 

I talk about the realistic and aspirational fashion of Parker posey, the many quotes and hijinks that ensue on this caper of madness, and the ...

When I was thinking about archiving my mag collection on TikTok I found other collectors as I got going. One of the first creators I remember salivating over was 90s Mags and More. I look forward to each new video because it really is like looking through a time capsule. 

For this interview episode I got to chat with Lauren about her collection, her history with Seventeen Magazine, current titles, and go deep on teenage nostalgia.

We're talking one of the most emotional television episodes we've ever seen. Just saying 'The Christmas episode' out loud makes me tear up.

We learn that Rickie has been kicked out of his home has no place to go and Angela wants to help. There are so many layers as to why and how he doesn't want to tell his closest friends exactly what is happening. To our surprise Jordan is there when Rickie ne...

Callum is back on the pod to talk more about what's happening in the Bravo-verse. We talk hot topics first like the Kandi/Todd divorce, Bronwyn/Todd separation, the Jenn Shah release of it all. Since the season is in full swing and it's been a while since our latest gossip sesh we're checking in on the Salt Lake, Potomac, and how the start of Beverly Hills is yawn inducing so far but we're sticking with it.

I've reached this level in life where I haven't seen (in its totality) The Bodyguard. This was something I knew I wanted to do for a long time. Naturally I brought Charles on to talk this pure classic. I was swept up in the magic of Whitney Houston the entire time. We get into how we didn't hate Kevin Costner in this, the fashion, and our favorite song from the soundtrack.

This is quite a surreal moment for me. I've been inspired by Valerie Phillips' work since I picked up a NYLON magazine in the early 00s. It was a dream to be able to talk with her about shooting during the peak of fashion magazine culture. We get into her start on music video sets, how she worked with some of the best during the start of NYLON, and how she self published her own work which led to international publisher and her lat...

This is my first interview on the Library side of the podcast. Since I've been documenting my collection I wanted to connect with other collectors to talk about our journey and how we came across certain titles.

I found Sofia on TikTok @curatedbysofia and I knew I had to get her on the line to chat about our love of photography and print media!

We get into her journey as a photographer, how it led to collecting, and how she managed t...

This was an interesting film to have as a first watch. Charles selected this one and it was one of the most tension filled but intoxicating films I've ever seen. The performances are incredible throughout and we have a definite 'Oscar rage' segment because of it. 

off-topic rants include: my first time watching 'Cool Hand Luke' and how I've never seen E.T.
