Episode 389: 'A Complete Unknown' with Enrique Chi
It's the latest star turn for former Ify Nwadiwe co-star Timothée Chalamet! We're joined by musician and educator Enrique Chi (of the appropriately-named band Making Movies) with us to share notes on the Bob Dylan origin story that isn't really an origin story at all. Then we'll have fun pitching our own ideas for musical biopics.What’s GoodAlonso - Erotic Vagrancy by Roger LewisDrea - 5Calls.orgEnrique - arts as public healthIfy - youngest brother’s bachelor weekendThe Super Bowl was on…Tubi (and here was Tubi’s ad)Prince’s Estate Has Blocked the Release of a New DocumentaryPharrell and Gondry Musical Scrapped“The Prince We Never Knew” (Sasha Weiss’s NYT article)Staff PicksAlonso - I’m Not ThereDrea - SuzeEnrique - QuincyIfy - SelenaCheck out Enrique’s band, Making Movies

Episode 388: 'Emilia Pérez' with Emily St. James
From a fun little Cannes oddity to an Oscar mega-nominee…and (ahem) beyond, EMILIA PÉREZ has had quite the journey. It’s also made the journey into the eyeballs of our three hosts and their esteemed guest, writer (of essays, books, TV, and now a novel!) Emily St. James. Everyone lived to tell the tale, but not in song…but don’t worry, we have musical content in the form of a movie quiz about movie musicals that sound unmakeable.What’s GoodAlonso - weekly Christmas cookie trialsDrea - Bookshop.org now has e-books (Preorder Woodworking by Emily St. James!)Emily - Woodworking :: Sabrina CarpenterIfy - Being back!B.J.

Episode 386: One of Them Days
Did Keke crush it and SZA sizzle?! This is but one question on this week’s show. Another? Plus, “Drea, Alonso and Kevin bring on “Bring It On”” is a sentence that makes little to no sense. It will make more sense after you listen to the episode. Fine. They reveal the female buddy comedies that made each of them LOL. But literally made them laugh out loud.What’s GoodAlonso - Electronic Frontier Foundation article Mad at Meta?Drea - Ayoh Dill Pickle MayoKevin - Beetle HouseITIDICFilm and TV Production In L.A.
