Margaret Cho rejoins the podcast to discuss everything from her return to music, to Chinese astrology, to how fucked up the world is today.

Send us a textKatie and Bridget make their own prom dresses as they re-watch the 80's classic: Pretty in Pink! Come along as we meet Andie, a teenage girl who's POOR. DON'T FORGET IT! She's got style, she's got a job, she's got full time mother responsibilities to her out of work father, and she's got her own personal stalker! Aka her "friend" Duckie! When Andie gets asked out by Blane, one of the "richies" from her school, they have the worst first date ever and after they make out she says she loves him! Also he immediately invites her to prom! Wtf! But this movie asks the deep questions we all have wondered at some point in our lives, such as: Can a poor girl date a rich dude? Should we call the police and/or the guidance counselor about Duckie and the fact that he's been held back for the last couple of years? Is prom the most important event in a young girls life or is dumping all the loser men around you and going to fashion school the most important instead!? Released in 1986, it was written by John Hughes and stars Molly Ringwald, Jon Cryer, Harry Dean Stanton, Annie Potts, Andrew McCarthy, and James Spader.

Let's talk about the fact we're never going to see a proper Spring again. And: Joe Biden's cancer; Jeff is full of ideas; “What's Happening!!”; Molly Ringwald topless; Brooke Shields; Sydney Sweeney; Scarlett Johansson; Florence Pugh; Jeff introduces Brian to Drag Syndrome; the Gangster Party Line; Klarna is in trouble; a McDonald's in Virginia closed the dining room to anyone under 21; why is every young girl's eyes so far apart?; Burger King onion rings; scientists need to study Long John Silver's; Hypertelorism is running rampant; they talked to the father of the guy who bombed that IVF clinic in Palm Springs; no one talks about Terry Nichols; Brian's manifesto; a kindergartner took Jell-o shots to school; a man was found inside a Lowe's display shed with Vaseline and a cell phone; and finally, Brian misses the casino.

The 1980s was not only a time of genre excellence, but also one of romantic comedies about surly tone-deaf white men and their indefatigable struggle to remain that way. To this semi golden age of toxic masculinity, we consign “Paul Mazursky's Tempest,” in which an otherwise sensitive and big-hearted filmmaker somehow marshals the talents of John Cassavetes, Gena Rowlands, Susan Sarandon, Raul Julia, and (in her big screen debut) Molly Ringwald, to deliver some of the least likable characters in screen history. And it's (vaguely) based on Shakespeare's “The Tempest”, which only leaves Paul, Javi, and - indubitably - Producer Brad filling the much needed void with some of the finest comedy commentary of their careers!Follow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

SummaryIn this episode, Nique dives into the classic 80s film '16 Candles,' directed by John Hughes. The conversation explores the film's themes of teenage romance, the significance of turning 16, and the character dynamics between Samantha and Jake. Nique reflects on the nostalgia of 80s movies, the impact of John Hughes on teen cinema, and the enduring appeal of Molly Ringwald's performances. The episode also touches on the cultural significance of the film and its relevance in today's context, concluding with a look ahead to future episodes.

On this week's episode, we're doing something a bit different.  This time, Todd takes a look at four, yes four, films that have been on the list of potential candidates for the podcast, but just never quite made the cut. First up we have Malicious, a 1995 erotic thriller starring Molly Ringwald. We follow that up with the 1988 kiddie musical The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking. Next up is the 1971 film Star Spangled Girl, based on a play by Neil Simon. Then we finish things up with the 1977 Tim Conway comedy The Billion Dollar Hobo. There is no guest this time, just Todd sharing some of his basic thoughts on each of these films. We do still have some trivia questions for our listeners to play along with, and movie recommendation at the end.

Welcome to the The First Ones, an Our POoRCHoices podcast.  On this series Sarcastro picks a show from yesteryear and then rallies some (or all) of the fellas to join him in recapping just the first episode of said show while dissecting it and determining if it's a show that would fly in today's entertainment landscape. This month on The First Ones, Sarcastro is joined by Fatty and Banky to talk about The Facts of Life which Sarcastro noted he had some help selecting which series to cover for this episode from friend of the show and co-host of The Sunnydale Diaries: A Buffy Podcast, Melanie.   With a premier in the fall of 1979 none of them realized how large of a cast the first episode had and that future star Molly Ringwald was in the first season and Nancy McKeon's rough and tough, street-wise Jo Polniaczek wasn't.  Which makes them wonder, had they ever seen the first season let alone the first episode at all?      Intro and outro interpreted and performed Sarcastro.

But for Anupam Nigam, it led to a lifelong love of television – – and a successful career in TV writing and producing.  And his favorite show of all? The Facts of Life! The Facts of Life was a spin-off of Diff'rent Strokes and aired on NBC from 1979-1988.

He is currently writer and co-executive producer of the hit CBS drama Fire Country. Susan and Sharon talk with Anupam about his childhood as an Indian American kid in New Jersey, his early love of television, the insight of The Facts of Life -- and the facts he learned that have stayed with him to this day. THE CONVERSATIONGROWING UP INDIAN -- IN NEW JERSEY: For Anupam, who was raised in an immigrant Indian household, television was a window into the wider world of “American” families - and how they were alike, and different from, his.“I'M NOT A DOCTOR, BUT I WRITE FOR THEM ON TV” -- Anupam was pre-med, a lab researcher, and even a certified EMT -- briefly -- before realizing that TV blood was more his style.Anupam's first script was a spec episode of Star Trek: Voyager -- and after that he was hooked.Anupam's “scientist mind” cracked the code on how to write a Law & Order script, and it led to a coveted spot in the Warner Bros Writers Program -- and then a big move to Hollywood!His first job was on The Division -- starring Facts of Life's Nancy McKeon!YOU TAKE THE GOOD, YOU TAKE THE VERY, VERY BAD: Anupam actually learned about the facts of life from the many “very special” episodes The Facts of Life: Abortion, divorce, drug abuse and death, anyone?Natalie was a natural STAR - When Charlotte Rae toured Westlake School for research, her young tour guide was… Mindy Cohn.

That's not a name, that's a major appliance! This week, V and Emily use the release of iconic teen film "Pretty In Pink" as an excuse to look at the influence of the Brat Pack on film, fandom, and film fandom since 1985. "Pretty In Pink" is a part of why Star Wars IX has the chopped-up feel it does; the Brat Pack themselves changed the nature of how fans and celebrities were meant to relate to one another. And, of course, the VCRification (it's a word) of movie-watching feeds right into the issues with direct-to-streaming fan culture today. What's your favorite Brat Pack film?

The Blind Rage Podcast is once again returning to the land down under for the 2000 slasher CUT, starring ‘80s teen icon Molly Ringwald and pop royalty Kylie Minogue. It's 1988 and during the making of a Z-grade horror movie, the actor playing the killer slaughters the director after being fired for his sheer ineptitude. He then sets his sights on the final girl, but she's able to escape. Twelve years later, a group of students decide to finish the film, which was abandoned after the behind-the-scenes butchery. Unfortunately, whenever a completion of the project is attempted, things come to an abrupt and gruesome end, as an unidentified killer picks off the cast and crew. Will the class of amateur filmmakers finally finish the cursed slice of celluloid, or will they meet the same fate as their predecessors?

What a CreepSome of the Creepiest Plots to John Hughes FilmsSeason 28, Episode 1John Hughes accomplished the remarkable feat of being a quintessential Baby Boomer while still resonating with Generation X and Millennials through his films. Movies—such as 16 Candles, The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Pretty in Pink, and She's Having a Baby—became essential viewing for generations that felt overlooked by mainstream media. He genuinely seemed like “one of us.”However, when we examine his work through a modern lens, it is difficult to overlook an alarming pattern of racism, homophobia, white privilege,  and sexism, as well as some questionable behavior exhibited by the male leads in his films from the 1980s and 1990s. Some of his movies also reveal a rather creepy element when viewed today.Sources for this episode:New Yorker essay by Molly Ringwald, 2018CrackedThe Franklin PostSplice TodayFar Out MagazineThe Daily BeastLooperHollywood ElsewhereRankerVanity FairYouTube Shrink Tank Literate ApeElle AustraliaScreen Rant MediumBustle Trigger warning: Sexual Assault, Grooming, Sexism, Racism, Ableism, and HomophobiaFor our non-creep, check out https://save-la.org/ for ways to help or be helped in the Los Angeles area. Be sure to follow us on social media.

Dan enrolls in a sexual sociology class.By Quinn_McMullen. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories.Prologue:It was Chicago, in the mid 1980s. Those were very different times. Fashion and language were different. Technology was quite different. We didn't have the internet, and cable television was just becoming widespread. Pubic hair was uncut & often not trimmed.. The only sexual fear for straight people was getting pregnant; and the pill mostly took care of that.I was a senior and I needed both a literature class and social science class to complete my general education requirements to graduate. Because of my class standing, I was finally going to be able to register early in the cycle. I filled out several possible registration cards, and waited dutifully in the line. When I got to the registration window, I was pleasantly surprised to find that S O C 3 69 Human Sexuality was still open. I registered for the class and hoped it was everything the rumors made it out to be.As the Spring Semester started, I tried to find out if I knew anyone in S O C 3 69. None of my engineering classmates were interested. And I was disappointed to find that none of my female friends had registered for it either. It had the potential to be less than fun. But I remembered the stories about the course lots of discussion of sex, sex, and sex. It couldn't be that bad.The class was scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. The first class was on a Thursday and I arrived ten minutes early for the first class. The room was already packed. On the front desk were two piles of papers with a sign that said, "Take one of each." One was the syllabus and the other was a list of assignments with details and due dates.Thursday Pre-ClassI looked around the packed room and saw a seat next to a pretty blonde. "Is this seat taken?""It looks like it's perfect for you." She chuckled.I held out my hand, "Hi, I'm Dan."She smiled sweetly, "I'm Hannah."A woman in her forties entered the room and began walking around talking to students. I assumed this was the famous Dr. Miller. She was tall and thin with a nice figure. She was professionally dressed in a skirt, blouse, and blazer. The skirt came to just above the knee and showed some shapely, bare legs. She started working the room.When she got to us, she said, "Hannah, good to see you again. Did you have a good winter break?""I did Dr. Miller."Dr. Miller turned to me and extended her hand, "A new person in my class."I stuck out my hand, "Pleased to meet you Dr. Miller. Dan McDevitt.""A senior. Mechanical engineering major. Wow! I'm impressed." She chuckled at herself, "I try to learn about my students beforehand. It isn't hard if you actually care about people." She looked at her watch, "Show time."Dr. Miller walked to the front of the room, "Let's get started. My name is Dr. Shannon Miller. This class is S O C 3 69, Human Sexuality. If you aren't registered, you will have to leave. No auditing."Two guys got up and headed toward the door.She continued, "It isn't that I want to be a hard ass, but if I didn't have that limitation, this place would be standing room only. If you are curious how the course was numbered, I asked for it and there was no objection until I was teaching it for three semesters. By then it was too late to change it."There were some scattered laughs and giggles."We'll skip the usual introductions. I think I know everyone. If you don't know your classmates, I think you will quickly learn about them."Lecture Begins"As the title suggests, this is a course in human sexuality. I must tell you that this class will get very graphic at times. We will examine the wide range of human sexual activity, from straight sex to some of the kinkiest stuff you can imagine. This may be uncomfortable for some of you. As a class, we can overcome this discomfort by keeping our minds open, being respectful of each other, and sharing our thoughts. Given the number of smiles, that sounds like what a lot of you signed up for."I expect everyone to act as an adult. I don't want to hear titters and I don't want to hear anyone shaming anyone else. Respect is our watch word. If you cannot act as a mature adult and show respect to everyone in the room, then I will ask you to leave. If you do not voluntarily leave, I will have campus security remove you. I don't fuck around with any of that. And yes, I have a potty mouth. I want everyone to feel safe here. This class is like Las Vegas. If someone shares some intimate part of their life, I expect it to stay in this room. Am I clear?Dr. Miller looked each of us in the eye, "Good. Does anyone want to leave?" Again she looked around."Very well. I will also use a lot of visual aids photos and film. This is not pornography. Since this is a liberal arts college, I am a strong believer that this is a time for you to explore and learn about yourself. I cannot require that you engage in sexual activity. That would be unethical and for many people, immortal. I will provide alternative assignments that you are free to undertake. In the assignment sheet I provide details on how you can fulfill both regular and alternative assignments. For example, after today's class, you may decide to experiment with self-love. Essentially, in the privacy of your room you can masturbate and then report on your observations. If you would like to have an observer present, that is also an option. Any questions?""Seeing none, we'll get started." She went to the front of the class and pulled down a screen. She flipped on an overhead projector and placed a slide on it, "So here is a very simple question: Why do we want to have sex? Danielle.""Because it makes us feel good.""Yes, it does. Brian.""We have a drive to reproduce."Dr. Miller walked to the side of the room, "One of our strongest instincts. Sarah.""Because we are attracted to the other person and we want to be intimate with them.""Ah. Intimacy. Another strong drive. Hannah.""Orgasms."Dr. Miller laughed, "Yes. The elephant in the room. Today we will discuss orgasms." She put up another slide, "So what is the average time it takes for a man to reach orgasm if he is masturbating? Dan.""Five minutes.""Not that long. Greg?""Four?""Almost. Rich?"He laughed, "Maybe three?""Good guess! Three minutes. So how long does it take a woman to reach orgasm if she is masturbating? Bridget?""I'm guessing. Four minutes?""Yes, good guess. So what can we conclude from those two numbers. Elizabeth.""That men and women are pretty close to having the same sexual response if they are stimulated properly.""Excellent! If you are gay, lesbian, or a virgin, you don't have to answer this next question. By a show of hands, how many of you know that your partner reaches orgasm during straight sex? Penis in vagina sex."Of the 25 people in the room, about 18 hands went up."Please leave your hands up. We have ten men and eight women. Now, how many of You reach orgasm during straight sex?"All the men left their hands up, but only one woman left their hand up.""Very interesting. So ladies, the men think you are having an orgasm when you really aren't. Am I reading that correctly?"Several female heads were nodding."Why is that? Hannah.""We fake it."Dr. Miller shook her head, "We fake it. That's kind of sad. Why? Rich.""The woman doesn't want to make us feel bad.""Yeah. Studies have shown that men's egos are easily bruised when it comes to sex. Some women also want to boost their partner's ego. Why else? Anne.""To get it over with."There was laughter around the room.Dr. Miller continued, "You laugh, but I think Anne is not making that up." Anne shook her head. "I think you will find that sometimes straight sex is not pleasant for many women, mostly because their male partner doesn't know what they're doing.""Anyone else? Roxane.""To avoid being shamed and being thought to be frigid.""That is a big one. By the way, no woman is frigid. That is a myth developed by men to compensate for their poor sexual performance. One last item. Sometimes a woman fakes an orgasm for non-sexual reasons such as trying to cement a relationship, become someone's girlfriend or fiancée. Questions or comments?"Dr. Miller looked around the room, "I find all this very interesting. Gentlemen, do you know how to tell if your partner is actually having an orgasm or faking it?"I shook my head. I thought I knew, but now I had my doubts. I looked around and the other guys looked just as puzzled.Dr. Miller said, "Don't be embarrassed guys. You've taken the first step to becoming a much better lover. Carlos, are you ready?"I just realized that there was a guy at the back of the room manning a film projector, "Yes, Dr. Miller."Female Orgasm FilmShe pointed to a guy near the door, "Sam?" He nodded. "Yes, Sam. Can you hit the lights?"Sam killed the lights and a film began to roll.The title flashed up, "Orgasmic Response in Human Females." The first scene had a bunch of co-eds walking and talking on a college campus somewhere. A female narrator said, "One of the most misunderstood aspects of human sexuality is the orgasmic response of human females. This film will briefly examine this topic."The scene changed to a couple making out. "It should be noted that approximately five to ten percent of women are incapable of having an orgasm. This is often due to some physical limitation."A graphic came up, "There are two types of female orgasm: vaginal and clitoral. The first, vaginal orgasm, is described by women as starting deeper in their body and elicits a full body response. These types of orgasms are caused by objects in the vagina stimulating the walls, Gräfenberg spot or G spot, and cervix."An anatomical diagram came up. "The G spot is located on the anterior wall of the vagina. When a woman is standing, it can be thought of as the upper side of the vagina." A red arrow pointed to a spot on the diagram, "In its relaxed state, the G spot is smooth. As a woman becomes more aroused, it becomes wrinkled. The G spot is best stimulated digitally with one or two fingers using a 'come hither' motion."A photo of a woman's vulva came on the screen, "Clitoral orgasms have a more localized reaction and are caused by stimulation of the clitoris and clitoral hood area." Red arrows appeared on the screen, "Clitoral orgasms are more intense, but are shorter in duration than a vaginal orgasm."There are several signs that a woman is experiencing an orgasm. Please note that not all women display all these signs."A photo of a light skinned vulva was displayed, "First, blood will rush to a woman's skin and in light skinned women, this will be seen as flushed skin. Blood will also rush to a woman's clitoris, vulva, and vagina. Often the clitoris will become engorged with blood and may extend out of the clitoral hood."The screen shifted to a photo of a lovely pair of breasts with large, erect nipples, "Second, a woman's nipples will be erect. Most women experience pleasure when their nipples are stimulated either orally or manually. Although not all women experience hard nipples during an orgasm, most do. Typically a woman's nipples are hard, erect, and sensitive. In all cases, an orgasm will increase a woman's heart rate. Often to between 160 and 210 beats per minute."Let's observe an actual female orgasm. This will be a clitoral orgasm."The screen shifted to a camera angle that was directly between a young, naked woman's legs. She had a nice bush, but her labia were shaved. The focus was on her vulva, but the rest of her body was visible in soft focus. She was small-breasted and had applied a small vibrator directly to her clit. Her vagina was slightly open and juices ran across her perineum."This woman's orgasm is about to begin. I direct your attention to her vaginal opening, her anus, her nipples, and her face."The woman began panting, her eyes closed, and her mouth took on the classic O shape. Her pelvic muscles began rhythmically contracting and you could clearly see her vagina and anus pulsing out a steady rhythm. Her nipples were hard and she reached up and pulled hard on one of them."During her orgasm, all her focus is on the stimulation being directed to her clitoris. She is unaware that her breathing has increased and her eyes are closed. Most women are incapable of vocalizing anything during orgasm. It should be noted that after orgasm, a woman's clitoris is very sensitive.""Now let's observe a vaginal orgasm."Once again, the screen was filled with a woman's vulva. Someone was fucking her with a smooth dildo. The angle was upward, striking the top of her vagina. She was rolling both her nipples."Once again, this woman's orgasm is about to begin. Observe her vagina, nipples, and face."As the orgasm began, her eyes practically popped out of her head. She let out a long groan, mouth open. You could see her vagina contracting on the dildo. She came for probably about a half a minute. And then the film was over.Dr. Miller said, "Sam, can you flip on the lights? So what did we observe? Dan.""In both cases, the woman's vagina was contracting. On the first one, so was her anus.""Good observation. Actually, her anus was contracting on the second one, but your view was blocked. I don't want to say every time since life has no absolutes, but in at least 999 times out of a thousand, the woman's pelvic muscles will contract during orgasm. Those contractions affect both the vagina and the anus. What else? Sam."

Kimberly had never read Besson--and didn't know Ringwald was translating!--but she loved this brief, beautiful novel. Listen in as she touches on the very un-american phenomenon of autofiction, before diving into the fascinating structural choices, the beauty of the spare prose and why Besson is SO GOOD AT SEX WRITING. She'll even offer up interesting translation differences and the novel's details that Ringwald (mostly judiciously) chose to leave out.

Come to school on a Saturday and take in what might be the nicest library ever disrespected by teenagers as we find the root of our early dating trauma in John Hughes's The Breakfast Club. Is Judd Nelson the ultimate beautiful bad boy, or an assault charge waiting to happen? Did no one tell these brats not to climb on the rare Henry Moore sculpture? And can we all just generally agree that teenagers suck? What we found out is that some of us have to come to terms with our horrible taste in movie men. Does that answer your question?

We continue our Classic Films and Movie Icons series with two performers who gained fame as kids: Breakfast Club actor Molly Ringwald and Freaky Friday actor Jodie Foster. We'll also discuss Foster's Oscar-winning role as an FBI agent in The Silence of the Lambs and hear from her co-star who played serial killer Hannibal Lector, Anthony Hopkins.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
