Dick (1999) 25th Anniversary

Author: Pod People Productions November 7, 2024 Duration: 1:26:25
"You can't let Dick run your life!" We were hoping the election would turn out much different than it did, but this isn't the first time America has dealt with a crook for a president, and statistically speaking, won't be the last. To distract us from the impending horrors, we're celebrating the 25th anniversary of the teen-girls-take-down-the-president classic, DICK. Full disclosure, this episode is probably going to get BURIED by algorithms based on the film's name so if you want to do us a solid and share this week's episode with a friend, we'll make you some Hello Dolly cookies! (We won't, that'd be too dangerous to ship). We love you. Thank you for listening.

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.
