"You know, we're more than just a club. We're friends. Best friends. Nothing could ever change that." THE BABY-SITTER'S CLUB movie turns 30 years old this year, so The Wives Colangelo are installing a landline, hiding candy in books, giving back to the community, and being there for their best friend when her deadbeat dad blows her off on her birthday. Based on the best-selling and beloved book series of the same name, THE BABY-SITTER'S CLUB is a sleepover staple with great lessons for tween girls (save for Stacey's way older first-kiss), but does it hold up without nostalgia?

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.
