"Listen, I know I can be hard to be around sometimes. I totally understand if you don't want to hang anymore."

For the third year in a row, we're ending the calendar with a Michael Cera movie that completely changed the way women were presented in teen cinema moving forward. This time, we're rocking out, playing games, dying our hair, and unpacking our baggage with SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD. We're talking about this perfect time capsule of a very niche part of 2010, for better and for worse. WE ARE THIS ENDS AT PROM AND WE'RE HERE TO MAKE YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR INNER TEEN AND WORK THROUGH IT AND STUFF. 1-2-3-4!!!!

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.
