Anatomy of a Scream Pod Squad

It's the end of the line for YOU S04 and Joe and Sharai are divided. Despite giving us everything we wanted and hypothesized about, there's something unsatisfying about the finale. From Kate and Nadia being dumb-dumbs to how easy it is to kill Tom to the show's refusal to end, this just doesn't hit the mark.Plus: thoughts on the inevitable S05 and Penn Badgley going clean shaven again!Connect with your co-hosts:> Show handle: @HeyYOU_Pod> Sharai: @Misssharai> Joe: @bstolemyremote Hosted on Acast.

It’s the penultimate episode of YOU’s fourth season, and Joe and Sharai have questions! Firstly, who is not haunting Joe at this point? Secondly, doesn’t this feel like it’s going to be the final season? Thirdly, what happened to the Nadia we used to know?Plus: Penn Badgley takes great direction from himself, questioning how great sex with Joe can be if you avoid doing it, and talking expectations for the finale.Connect with your co-hosts:> Show handle: @HeyYOU_Pod> Sharai: @Misssharai> Joe: @bstolemyremote Hosted on Acast.

Well, it turns out that Joe Goldberg is “full fat, extra sugar, deep-fried fucking insane” and now we're just frustrated. In what feels like a poorly constructed twist, Joe and Sharai question the logic of making Joe mentally ill, the logistics of disappearing for days on end and constructing the box in London, as the benefits of using half the episode's runtime on Marienne's fairytale. Plus: this has got to be the final season, right? Because a "happy ending" for Joe is off the table!

A boring episode suddenly turns into something wild as the glass cage makes a surprise reappearance. Joe's not convinced this isn't still a frame job by Rhys, who gets his balls played with a bit before dying. Sharai, however, shatters Joe's fragile little mind with the suggestion that Joe has been Sixth Sense-ing Rhys the whole season!Connect with your co-hosts:> Show handle: @HeyYOU_Pod> Sharai: @Misssharai> Joe: @bstolemyremote Hosted on Acast.

Sharai and Joe return to tackle the premiere of Netflix's YOU S04 Part 2...and we're a bit underwhelmed.This is firmly a placeholder (filler?) episode that reintroduces the characters, but there's too much Adam/Lady Phoebe drama and barely any Kate!Plus: Rhys in the dark with beers, Nadia's in danger, the photographer's identity is revealed, and Where.Is.Daddy?!Connect with your co-hosts:> Show handle: @HeyYOU_Pod> Sharai: @Misssharai> Joe: @bstolemyremote Hosted on Acast.

Prepare to be incredibly uncomfortable because Gena, Joe, and Jenn are back to discuss Jamie Dack's extremely upsetting film, Palm Trees and Power Lines (2022). CW: grooming, sexual assault.This is rough, in part because lead actress Lily McInery is so young looking, and the child grooming is so easy to understand.Plus: fraught mother/daughter relationships, dating older men, Jonathan Tucker appreciation, and why a static long shot sex scene is so effective.Wanna connect with the show?> Gena: @genadoesthings> Jenn: @jennferatu> Joe: @bstolemyremoteIf you like the podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe!

For a second dip into Love Hurts, the White Ladies in Crisis crew (Jenn, Gena and Joe) revisit Lolita-inspired 90s knock-off, The Crush (1994).Starring an unhinged Alicia Silverstone as a teenage temptress and Cary Elwes at peak hotness, this film features no shortage of perplexing questions, including why an adult man would let not one, but TWO teen girls hang out in his apartment, why the screenwriter didn't change Adrian's name, and what kind of family has a carousel in their attic.

Bryan and Joe are back to discuss Volume 2 of Clive Barker's short story collection, Books of Blood.This time we're a bit more conflicted about some of the dated elements, including the role of race in Hell's Event to the misogyny of Jacqueline Ess: Her Will and Testament to the sexual assault of The Skins of our Fathers.Still, Barker's prose is great, from the body horror of Jacqueline Ess to the playfulness of Barker-fying Edgar Allan Poe in New Murders in the Rue Morgue.
