2:19:02Buckle up and get ready to break 88: this week's episode's a lightning-fueled time warp to the glorious 80s and everyone's favorite feel-good franchise, Back to the Future. We're joined by activist and lawyer Brandt Kincaid to interrogate (ha) this classic time trip from all sides: why is it the best? Where did Crispin Glover go? Where did Tom Wilson disappear to? Why does this film have so much sexual assault? Why does this film have so few people of color? What is this "Power of Love" we keep hearing about, and why do we find it in the Old West? All this plus pets, spouses, theme park rides, and the true origins of Doc and Marty's friendship. SPONSORS: Click here for your free 30-day trial with Audible!

1:09:29How do you measure a show's worth of cringe? We do our best to find out in the thrilling conclusion to our two-part series on the musical that defined a generation of theater punks, "RENT." Last episode was all about what we loved then, but this week is all about what we know now: the moral weight of being a sellout, the deadly dogma of struggling for your art, the offstage drama of Allison "Muffy" Coffin, and what a girl wants (certainly not Roger, who is the absolute worst). Not to worry, though: we measure this show with love.

You'll hear Part One of our thrilling conversation this week, in which we talk about the origins of the musical and its impact on us as people and artists, before turning our focus on the common pitfalls of portraying HIV/AIDS in popular culture, the intersection of drag and gender, and the real villain of the musical (hint: not Benny.)

1:11:39This week we Return to the Cringe with special guest Joe Raik and the conclusion of our conversation about The Lord of the Rings ! Last week we leaned heavily on our love and affection, so of course this week will be a closer look at what parts of Middle Earth make us flinch: the narrative importance of blood purity, the flatness of the female characters, and Frodo's fan base amongst the alt-right against Tolkien's record on racism. On the bright side, we make time for Ultimate Boyfriend Samwise Gamgee and the many memes of our childhood.

As is fitting a saga of this stature, we simply couldn't complete our quest in one episode. This week we'll start with our childhood memories, our favorite moments, and we'll just dip our toes in the shallow end of the cringe pool when we talk about Middle Earth's racial politics.

1:11:49Strap on your happy helmets, kids: you're gonna need them. This week, Abby is joined by actor, pop culture afficionado, and true crime nerd Nate Betancourt for a granular gaze at that iconic Nicktoon of the 1990s, Ren & Stimpy. Come with us for an extremely geeky discussion about the history of animation, the evolution of Nickelodeon, and the lasting impact of Spumco's particular style, followed by a harsh and flinch-worthy look at the rise and (well-deserved) fall of John Kricfalusi. Be advised: things get dark, gritty, and not at all suitable for children. CONTENT WARNING: The following episode contains extensive discussion of the sexual abuse of children and the methodology of sexual predators. While not graphic in nature, this discussion might be upsetting for some listeners. This material begins at 33:30, and continues through the end of the episode.

Turns out we have plenty to say about cultural misappropriation, truly terribly brownface, and some ham-fisted dramaturgical racism. All this plus Broadway politics in the 50s, Hollywood culture in the 60s, and why you shouldn't sleep with your brother's murderer.
