  • Welcome to season 13 and about 600 episodes! The Geek Girls (and occasional guy!) chat about movies, TV, awards shows, the Soupies (our very own awards), and DEI in the entertainment industry. We love Apple TV+, The Leftovers, Invasion, and The Fall of the House of Usher. One of us won’t watch biopics. One of us watches horror flicks for comfort. And one of us gets teased for not liking comedy. We’re all into sci-fi, the apocalypse, documentaries, time travel, all-things-Keanu Reeves, “prestige TV,” international films, and anything with Regina King. - Original music by Garrett Thompson.

  • 14.03: Pick Your Poison(ed) Apple
    2024/10/30

    Get ready to pick your poisoned apple as Susan, Kelly, and Cort dive into the enchanting world of witches in movies and shows! They explore the bewitching themes of empowerment and the often misunderstood portrayal of witches, from classics like "Practical Magic" to the eerie vibes of "The Craft."

    Susan, Kelly, and Corrt dive into the enchanting world of witches with their discussion on "Pick Your Poison(ed) Apple." They explore various representations of witches across movies and shows, highlighting how these portrayals have evolved over time. From the classic charm of *Bewitched* to the darker tones of *The Craft*, the hosts dissect the cultural significance of witchcraft in media. The conversation touches on the societal implications of witch hunts, both historically and in contemporary narratives, as well as the reclamation of witchcraft by modern feminists. They reflect on how stories about witches have shifted from depictions of evil hags to empowered female characters who are often misunderstood, hinting at a deeper societal commentary on women's autonomy and power.

    The hosts delve into character arcs, plot twists, and even the moral quandaries presented in these films, encouraging listeners to think critically about what these stories say about society and gender dynamics.

    They reference the documentary *The Burning Times*, which addresses the gruesome history of witch hunts and the societal fears that fueled them. As they recount tales of witches throughout history, they highlight the stark contrast between fear-based narratives and the modern reclamation of witchcraft as a symbol of empowerment for women.

    And, remember, say "Happy Birthday" to Cort!
