Six Degrees of Star Wars
Even before it became the property of a monstrously big corporation that started putting it everywhere, Star Wars was everywhere. Join us on a journey as we take the hyperspace lanes out of a galaxy far, far away and into other movies, finding all the ways George Lucas' flagship franchise surrounds us, binds us, and penetrates us.

Ep.17: Polite Society is a Riot
From the acclaimed writer/director of WE ARE LADY PARTS, comes POLITE SOCIETY, a movie with martial arts, pretty dresses, commentary on social hierarchy and pressures to conform to norms, girl bosses, girl failures, and girl feels. So we got 4 of one of those things to talk about it!
This movie and podcast contain discussions of racism, sexism, and reproductive justice, including acts of assault that violate bodily and sexual autonomy.
