"I'm not ashamed. It's just, for once, I just wanted to fit in and be popular."

May-Usical Month continues with another Disney Channel Original Movie, the Demi Lovato and Jonas Brothers summer camp musical, CAMP ROCK. This week, The Wives Colangelo are talking about the Radio Disney pop-rock machine (complete with Disney Knees), how nonsensical this plot is, and the unfortunately dark truth behind what was going on with the actors during production. Sing it out, Prom Party. "This is real, this is me! I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, now!

Every week, This Ends at Prom digs into a single film to explore how stories about teenage girls shape our understanding of womanhood itself. Hosts BJ and Harmony Colangelo, a married couple, bring their distinct queer and feminist perspectives-one cisgender, one transgender-to these conversations, creating a unique and essential dialogue. They’re less interested in simple nostalgia and more focused on the lasting cultural impact of these movies, asking what they truly say about power, identity, and survival. You’ll hear thoughtful analysis that celebrates the genre while also critically examining its flaws and hidden depths. This isn't just a film review show; it's a deep dive into the artifacts of our youth and how they continue to define us. Produced by Pod People Productions, the podcast finds profound resonance in the hallways, bedrooms, and climactic prom scenes of cinema, revealing why these specific stories stick with us long after the credits roll. Each episode feels like a compelling chat between friends who are unafraid to challenge each other and the material, making for listening that is as insightful as it is engaging. Tune in for a fresh take on the films you thought you knew.
