Author: Pod People Productions August 5, 2021 Duration: 1:34:49

“Yeah, um, you've got a lot of people going to the Olympics. Just curious, what country will they be representing? The state of delusion?"

In honor of the Olympics and Simone Biles continuing to prove why she's the GOAT, we're talking about the gymnastics classic STICK IT (2006). BJ dives deep into her life as an elite artistic athlete, Harmony talks about how this movie is the epitome of 2006, and yes, we talk about the queer awakening of millennials and that ice bath scene.

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.
