"I may be a drape, but I love your granddaughter. And if that's a crime, I'll stand convicted, ma'am."John Waters returns to This Ends at Prom with the second of his unofficial teen trilogy and first true musical, the 1950s satire, CRY-BABY. This week The Wives Colangelo are discussing finding your path in a rigid world, why Waters' brand of "beautiful" is the way to be, stressing the importance of staying true to yourself, and determining why Wanda Woodward is one of cinema's greatest badass babes.----Become a Patron!https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom----MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTMermaids U.K. (https://mermaidsuk.org.uk/)----Source MentionedA Conversation with John Waters: https://www.hammertonail.com/interviews/john-waters-cry-baby/----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/

My guest this week is Alexis Langlois, director of the film Queens of Drama — a musical love story about two performers who enter a forbidden romance behind the scenes of a pop-star competition. Alexis has been making films with a troupe of irregulars for years, inspired by John Waters' Dreamlanders and the recurring actors in the films of David Lynch. His style is scrappy, independent, political, and very queer … so you can imagine his surprise when he was invited to present his latest work at Cannes.We'll have that conversation in a minute. First — if you've been watching the latest season of Drag Race All Stars, you've seen Bosco and Irene the Alien absolutely stealing the show with great looks, funny banter, and a mischievous friendship. And you can get even more of that Irene and Bosco magic — having an absolute riot playing Dungeons & Dragons. A couple years ago Bosco and Irene joined me and my partner James for a D&D adventure, and we just posted the full audio for you to check out. Over six hours of these two drag stars on a fun, chaotic fantasy romp. You don't need to know anything about D&D to listen — it's basically like an audiobook that you can put on to enjoy while you're doing something else. I think you'll love it — Here's a link: https://youtu.be/rD8tJTtAMYA And if you're enjoying The Sewers of Paris, I hope you'll consider supporting the show on Patreon.

This week Aaron treats the lads to another example of the profoundly profane with the tale of Divine!

Hold onto your VHS tapes and watch out for stray legs of lamb because Lillard Mayhem Month kicks off with a killer episode! Jackie and Danielle, alongside their fabulous guest Amber, dive into John Waters' 1994 cult classic Serial Mom. Join the gang as they debate whether suburban serial killer Beverly Sutphin is truly evil or just the embodiment of a PTA mom gone rogue. With Kathleen Turner's impeccable portrayal of a deranged yet devoted housewife, the hosts hilariously dissect every gruesome murder, from the bloody shoe fiasco to Beverly's unwavering disdain for white shoes after Labor Day. Spoiler alert: The recycling police have never been scarier.Between cracking up over Beverly's wild rampages and uncovering behind-the-scenes trivia, the trio ponder Matthew Lillard's cinematic debut and dream up the ultimate “killer mom” musical. Plus, Amber's encyclopedic knowledge of John Waters' filmography and Danielle's fashion trauma over white shoes will leave you in stitches.

Dan welcomes multi-instrumentalist Greg Hatem from Baltimore, who plays in four different bands while also operating a curiosity shop selling natural history items and oddities.Greg discusses Baltimore's unique appeal as an artistic community, describing it as a fertile creative ground where "the weird cousin" to nearby cities offers both big-city opportunities and small-town connections. The conversation touches on John Waters' influence on the city and Greg's curiosity shop's new Ouija board exhibit.The episode explores Greg's Catholic school upbringing, his perspectives on Queer music existing beyond exclusive scenes, and his process of musical collaboration, which sometimes leads to transcendent moments of synchronicity.Greg shares strong views on trans rights, emphasising the importance of allowing people to express their true selves before judgment.His gateway track recommendation is "Planet," originally written for a charity compilation benefiting trans youth.Find Greg at gregsaudionetwork.com and on streaming platforms.Spotify playlist can be found HERE.The podcast is on Instagram (@inthekeyofq) and Facebook (search: In the Key of Q).

One of the all time great bands, L7 fused laugh out loud humor with a caveman punk aggression that made them stand out like a blistered sore thumb against the L.A. hair metal landscape of the late ‘80s. But they were chicks, man — so rather than be spoken about in the same righteous breath as the Stooges or the Ramones, the members of L7 had to put up with inane questions about Vixen(?!?). No matter. As with most awesome things, L7 are still here and their influence looms larger than ever. On this episode we talk to co-founder Donita Sparks about Matthew Sweet covers, Epitaph records, the siren song of LA surf music, Slash records, Sub Pop, yacht rock, Rock For Choice, Milwaukee book makers, fights at Exit, John Waters, SMELL THE MAGIC, and we play the best round of what's the best ever!

Sweet and Lowdown opened on December 3rd in just 3 theaters and taking in an impressive 31,562 dollar per screen average Written and directed by Woody Allen, it stars Sean Penn as fictional jazz guitar legend Emmet Ray alongside Samantha Morton and Uma Thurman, Brad Garrett, John Waters, Anthony LaPaglia, and Brian Markinson, among others. Sweet and Lowdown was a welcome end to what many saw as a mid-90s slump for Allen, who had released a string of movies who that had been received with mixed or sometimes scathing reviews, like 1995's Mighty Aphrodite, 1996's Everyone Says I Love You, 1997's Deconstructing Harry, and 1998's Celebrity. It's also difficult to not see in light of revelations of Allen's darker behaviors throughout his career, to say nothing of Penn. But it can also sweet and charming, and its jazz-age nostalgia is as hard to resist as Morton's acclaimed, Oscar-nominated silent performance. Joining John and Julia to talk through Sweet and Lowdown's ups and downs is actor, writer, and director Liz Whitmere, who has some thoughts on toxic behavior in the entertainment industry. Liz is on Bluesky @lizwhitmere

Howdy folks of the interwebs! Welcome back for another shenanigan infused journey into the mind of this particular Garbage Can Dood!Tonight's discussion is on the Zizian transpocalypse, Silicon Valley based, AI focused, vegan, homicidal death cult! And the attorney who represented the cult leader Jack "Zithlord" Lasota in criminal charges that Lasota would fake his death in 2022 to avoid those charges!!The Zithlord's attorney has some interest'n friends...some interest'n "Best Friends"! Notably, Process Church characters such as John Waters (infamous film director) & Boyd Rice!That same attorney has some interest'n political backers, such as National Security Advisor to President Jimmy Carter & other "Best Friends" in the Los Angeles region. One "Best Friend" that is at least tertiarily connected to the same agency as another political backer of that same attorney - was recently sentenced in unrelated charges in Ohio, described as a "serial killer of dogs".That "serial killer of dogs" was a poster child for the Process Church/"Best Friends Animal Society" in their pitbull lobby. Not only was his "no kill" animal shelters in both Ohio and later in California funded by "Best Friends" and his pitbulls were routinely provided by "Best Friends"/Process - even whilst ol boy was on the run from charges in Ohio for merc'n dogs - his "Best Friends" set him up with a new pitbull operation in Southern California! That is until the US Marshal's sting operation in LA in 2021 to arrest Steffan Baldwin/Finkelstein for Ohio charges, upon Baldwin's arrival back in Ohio for "serial killer of dogs" charges - his fingerprints were input into the national database. Baldwin's prints would me a match for the "#1 suspect" in a cold case disappearance of Maura Murray in New Hampshire in 2004. Murray just happened to be Baldwin/Finkelstein's exgirlfriend from West Point Academy, allegedly last seeing her in 2001.Anyhow, folks of the interwebs thank for join'n me to get a lil GCD!

The most famous drag queen in American history once declared, “Filth is my life.” Fifty years later, filth is everyone’s life. From Divine to Vivian Musk, from John Waters to Teen Vogue, the culture hasn’t just slid downhill—it swan-dived into a dumpster in heels.

The films of John Waters were so nasty, so shocking ,and so subversive that shock author William Burroughs called him "The Pope of Trash." But from his beginnings in X-rated art films to cult classics like Hairspray and Crybaby, John Waters created and cultivated his own peculiar niche in film while nurturing the unique company of players who became a family of outcasts.

Before Patty Hearst appeared as an actress in John Waters' movies, she captivated America on the silver screen as a hostage terrorized by the Symbionese Liberation Army. When the newspaper heiress was kidnapped by the radical organization in 1974, the country sympathized with her plight. But after just a few months, the SLA's guns weren't pointing at Patty anymore. Suddenly, Patty was firing her own weapons during fistfights and bank robberies as a member of the same terrorist group that once kept her locked in a closet. In court, Patty claimed she was brainwashed and that she played along for her own safety. It's true that Patty Hearst gave the performance of a lifetime — but we still don't know which part of her life was the performance. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including graphic depictions of violence.

ART! TRASH! TERROR! Adventures in Strange Cinema (Headpress 2025) by Chris Alexander is a treasure trove of in-depth essays and edifying interviews that celebrate some of the most eccentric and unforgettable movies in cult cinema history. From recognized classics (George A. Romero's Dawn Of The Dead, David Lynch's The Elephant Man) to misunderstood masterpieces (Michael Mann's The Keep, Boris Sagal's The Omega Man) to unfairly maligned curios (Kostas Karagiannis' Land Of The Minotaur, Brett Leonard's Hideaway), the author takes an alternately serious and playful but always personal look at several strains of international horror, dark fantasy, and exploitation film -- motion pictures that transform, transgress, challenge, infuriate, shock, and entertain. Connecting these passionate and critical essays are insightful interviews with revered talents, such as John Waters (writer/director, Cecil B. Demented), Michael Winner (director, The Sentinel), Nicolas Cage (actor, Vampire's Kiss), Gene Simmons (co-founder/bassist, KISS), William Crain (director, Blacula), William Lustig (director, Maniac), Werner Herzog (director, Nosferatu: Phantom Der Nacht) and many more, as well as witty, heartfelt memoirs charting the author's oddball experiences on the fringes of Hollywood and beyond. Illustrated with more than 200 startling photographs! Learn more about your ad choices.

This movie, while it may have a comedic appeal to certain audiences, does have several controversial and disturbing scenes that land it in Fucked Up February. The film is directed by John Waters and stars actor and drag queen, Divine. As the characters go out of their way to be "filthy", they do live up to the word in every possible way with perverse acts and evil plots.

Today, I'm thrilled to announce my episode with Scott Wittman, who is the lyricist of Broadway's newest sensation SMASH. Tune in to hear some of the stories of his amazing career, including why CATCH ME IF YOU CAN appealed to him as a follow-up to HAIRSPRAY, putting together MATTERS OF THE HEART with Patti LuPone, why CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY was at its best in workshops, his experiences with Dame Edna and Elaine Stritch, watching Disney animators at work during MARY POPPINS RETURNS, being influenced by John Waters, how Matthew Lopez convinced him to adapt SOME LIKE IT HOT, the upcoming project he's working on with Bridget Everett, why John Slattery and Talia Balsam were perfect for THE SUBJECT WAS ROSES, and so much more. You won't want to miss this chat with one of Broadway's best writers.

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Zach Clark (THE BECOMERS, LITTLE SISTER, WHITE REINDEER) joins Adam and Joe to discuss his career journey and the making of his new Sci-Fi feature. From cutting his teeth in editing and how that impacted his directing craft… to his love and admiration for Russ Meyers and John Waters films… to his drive to go more “hard” genre and the classic films that inspired his alien invasion/body swap/love story/goo covered THE BECOMERS… to how COVID casually worked its way into the writing and shooting of the film… to comfort foods and how he deals with notes from peers… to a hint at his new project (a “castle horror” type film)… Zach is a truly inspiring voice on the indie scene.
