We're kicking off a brand new themed pairing on 'Doomed, Sexy Experimentation' with a look at Luca Guadagnino's adaptation of Call Me By Your Name (2017).

We're giving big props to the chemistry between the leads, tackling the film's controversies (Armie Hammer; the age gap), Timothée Chalamet's nuanced performance, and that cold winter ending.

Our second entry in 'Secret Adolescent Love' is 2023's Monster.

Directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda and written by Yuji Sakamoto, the film is a puzzle narrative in the form of a triptych that constantly asks audiences to re-evaluate their understanding of characters in order to answer the question: "who is the monster?"

Plus: leading with empathy, fave quotes from school principal Fushimi, secret queerness, and debate about the film's ending.

Conrad and Joe kick off a new theme on 'Secret Adolescent Love' with a look at Lukas Dhont's Close (2022). C/W: Self-harm.

Devastating is the word of the episode as we unpack this "not actually queer" story about the intimate, but ultimately disastrous friendship of Léo and Rémi. There's a reason this movie was Belgium's nominee for Best Foreign Language film at the Oscars, but fair warning...be prepared for plenty of tears.
