"My story doesn't begin with a boy. It begins with me." The Wives Colangelo are joined this week by the brilliant Mallory O'Meara to talk about the underseen should-be coming-of-age classic, HOW TO BUILD A GIRL. Together they agonize about what it's like to work in male-dominated industries, praise the always fantastic Beanie Feldstein, and preach the gospel of author Caitlin Moran. This movie is so much more than "ALMOST FAMOUS but for girls," so listen as they break it down!------Buy Girls Make Movies!http://www.malloryomeara.com/girls-make-moviesFollow Mallory: @MalloryOMeara Listen to the Reading Glasses Podcast: https://maximumfun.org/podcasts/reading-glasses/------Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom-------- 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/

Hello and welcome to EPISODE 124, and what is essentially our Halloween episode. We know that Halloween and, indeed, Andy's birthday are going to look a little different for people this year but as always, you can rest assured that we will continue to bring you episodes in these unprecedented times! This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined by the busiest woman in horror. She is the Director of Frightfest 2020 summer selection 12 HOUR SHIFT and Writer/star of Natasha Kermani's LUCKY. She has also starred in such films as AFTER MIDNIGHT, BEYOND THE GATES and THE STYLIST. Throw onto all that being the co-host of the READING GLASSES Podcast and now, with the release of MARY, graphic novelist... It's BREA GRANT! The film? BASKET CASE! I can already see the comments coming in... "WHAT!?! Who doesn't like Basket Case?", "THIS IS AN OUTRAGE", "Basket Case doesn't need defending" and, do you know what? You're right. However, one of the hosts will disagree with that sentiment. One of the hosts is not a fan. That qualifies it. The synopsis is as follows: A grotesquely deformed conjoined twin joins forces with his brother to stalk the physicians who separated them at birth. Please note that this podcast may contain strong language and even stronger Scottish accents. Also, why not pop over and take a look at our Patreon page?

Kaytee and Mindy are handling this week while Meredith recovers from surgery. We are so glad to have Mindy step in during tough times! As we get started, you’ll hear our first advertisement on the podcast. We have always said we’d be extremely discerning about advertisers, so Book of the Month was a perfect match for us, since we are both loyal (paying) customers. We hope you’ll give them a try and get your first book for just $9.99 when you use the code CURRENTLYREADING! If you’re interested, please use our link so they know we sent you. You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each host: a bookish sticker from an online friend, and a “book dictionary” brag that occurred at a local bookstore. Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. Every single book this week was a “turn” from the previous title discussed, so we are running the gamut. For our deep dive this week, we are chatting about reading while sick. Mindy and Kaytee were both battling viruses this week of different kinds, so we talk about how illness effects our reading lives and the tips we have to keep reading while you’re not feeling 100 percent. Finally, this week, we are Pressing Books into Your Hands: we’ve got a brick of a biography and a collection of stories that will open your heart. As per usual, time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode. If you’d like to listen first and not spoil the surprise, don’t scroll down! *Please note that all book titles linked above are Amazon affiliate links. Your cost is the same, but a small portion of your purchase will come back to us to help offset the costs of the show. Thanks for your support!* . . . . .
