This Ends at Prom

"That's life. If nothing else, it's life. It's real, and sometimes it f*ckin' hurts, but it's sort of all we have."20 years ago, Zach Braff made his feature directorial debut with a little indie film that won over the hearts of critics and audiences and changed the way female protagonists would be showcased in quarter-life crisis films forever. Despite the love shown to the film upon release, the years have not been kind to GARDEN STATE, and The Wives Colangelo are going to get to the bottom of why the tides have turned against it. Not to be dramatic, but put on your headphones because this episode will change your life.----Become a Patron!https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom----Article MentionedIt’s the Ten-Year Anniversary of Realizing ‘Garden State’ Sucked (https://www.vice.com/en/article/its-the-ten-year-anniversary-of-realizing-garden-state-sucked/)Interview with Zach Braff, The AV Club (https://www.avclub.com/zach-braff-a-good-person-garden-state-legacy-1850249613)----Follow the Show: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo: @Veloci_trap_tor / @HarmonyColangelo on Bluesky----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"Do you think I'm weird?"Four years ago, the hosts of this podcast fell in love with a movie called DINNER IN AMERICA, and the underground sensation has finally gotten the attention it has always deserved. In honor of this cult hit's evolution into an indie phenomenon, The Wives Colangelo are finally talking about their favorite movie (as a couple), waxing poetic about being Midwest trash, praising Kyle Gallner and Emily Skeggs' phenomenal performances, and maybe crying a little bit about how this movie changed their lives.----Become a Patron!www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom----Catch Dinner in America in theaters!https://www.dinnerinamerica.com/tickets/----Follow the Show: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo: @Veloci_trap_tor / @HarmonyColangelo on Bluesky----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"I have to tell you a secret that will see you through all the trials that life can offer. Have courage and be kind."It's the fourth Cinderella story covered on This Ends at Prom, and the one with the most heart. The Wives Colangelo are joined by comedian Fifi Dosch to talk about why CINDERELLA (2015) is an essential watch during times of turmoil, explore the film's unintentional neurodivergent and trans themes, gush about a Prince worthy of our Ella, and praise the power of sentimental cinema.----Become a Patron!https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom----Follow our guest!@FifiDoschListen to the Skin Suit Podcast with Fifi Dosch and Robin Tran wherever you get your podcasts!----Find the Show on Twitter & Instagram: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo —Twitter & Instagram: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo — Twitter & Instagram: @Veloci_trap_tor----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why oh why can't I?"With the premiere of WICKED just days away, The Wives Colangelo are going back 85 years to discuss arguably the most-watched film in history, and one that happens to also be a teen girl movie — The Wizard of Oz. A film that has been analyzed for decades, This Ends at Prom is focusing on Dorothy's journey into a technicolor world of escapism, recognizing the parallels between Dorothy Gale and Judy Garland's bleak coming-of-age experiences, and losing it over the Scarecrow's weapon of choice. Surrender Dorothy!
