Deep Cut: SLC Punk! (1998) [Remix Edition]

Fashion Grunge Podcast ·

2024/04/07

It's that time again! Dusting off one of our early episodes for a remix edition! We're going back to Salt Lake City, Utah in the mid 80s to see what Stevo and Heroin Bob are up to. I really need no excuse to talk about this film again. Our first episode was during the pandemic so it's high time that I review one of my 'foundational' films again. Mikey joined me on this one to talk about our love for Matthew Lillard, the outlandish and amazing fashion, and the countless hilarious scenes and

It's been a time but Jai is back with me to talk about the hot topics in fashion. We were going to do a runway collection review but there are so many news topics to chat about instead. Basically we talk on the phone about this anyway so why not have another random chit chat fashion episode? We get into our thoughts on current fashion journalism, what's next for i-D and Nylon magazines, Alessandro Michele at Valentino, Dries leaving, and tons moreEnjoy!--- Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture

178: It's melting! | Kuffs (1992)

Fashion Grunge Podcast ·

2024/03/26

What is it about Christian Slater? He has the charm to basically almost carry anything. Well, Kuffs is a little known action comedy from 1992 that only really survives because of the magic of our lead character. Charles picked this one and it was a light refresher into why the 90s had such a diverse group of film genres. We talk about the unexpected fashion we loved, just wonder what the hell this script was about, and take a look at the recent work of Slater and why this movie would have made a fun

I wasn't sure what film to do so again I asked Charles for another suggestion. I have no idea what I did to deserve this because I literally sat cowering in fear in broad daylight watching this. Not only did it build masterful tension and take me on a journey I couldn't expect, but it broke barriers with an all female cast

176: Maybe the next one, darling. | Crash (1996)

Fashion Grunge Podcast ·

2024/02/18

Finally I've stepped into the world of David Cronenberg films. It really is fitting that the first one I see and review is Crash from 1996. It was both me and Charles' first watch and we were enthralled. The exploration of subcultures I always find fascinating and this certain was that. We talk about the physical reactions to car crashes, how James Spader is THAT one, and constantly remind you that it's not the same film as that abomination that won Best Picture in 2004. off-topic rants include:

This was a first watch for both me and Jules. Objectively it's no Oscar winner but when you see it for what it is, there was something there. The casting was incredible and Tara Reid basically stole the show. We get into the realistic fashion, so many quotes we loved, a real-time deep dive on the director (eek), and just how this story was unbelievable and infuriating at times.Off-topic rants include: ghost rom-com casting, 'losing your V card' as a movie genre, our first musician crushes--- Get

I have never seen this movie (can you believe it?) so Charles suggested it for July 4th this year! I loved this movie for so many reasons but basically the willingness of these townspeople to ignore warnings of a Great White shark that has killed multiple people at this very beach is alarming.

2024/01/28

The time has come. I finally recorded an episode on my own. A first time here on the show. It was hard deciding although I did do an internet poll and 'top music videos of the 90s' won. This took me a while to get in the mood to do but I selected these videos not really as random but as a good representation of all these varying types of narratives that I loved in videos during my teenage years. I did some behind the scenes research and cruised some message boards to dig deeper. I basically talk

And we're back with another interview episode! I did promise I would do more of these this year and what a better way to start than to chat to Ashley and Britney of Black Girl Film Club Podcast! As per usual we were all over the place when it comes to the topics we covered. The way we analyze films these days is always so interesting to me. We touch on how the discovery and reviewing of films has changed in the age of social media. We get into what new films we're looking forward to, our reality tv

Fashion Grunge Podcast ·

2024/01/14

Some considerable time has passed since we last explored the 'movie of the week' genre on the podcast. Luckily, if we ever run out of 90s films to talk about, there are literally thousands to pull from. This is one that has really stuck with me since I was a teenager. I remember taping this from tv and cutting the commercials out so I could watch it back uninterrupted. Out of all of the films, this particular one I watched ALL the time. I got Charles on this episode who knew nothing about it to

2024/01/07

What a way to welcome the New Year. Excess Baggage is a film from 1997 that almost takes you there but then falls short overall. The casting honestly saved this whole project but it really puts into perspective the importance of a tight story and seamless collaboration. This film was riddled with re-writes and re-shoots which is typically not a good sign, however watching for the charm and nostalgia factor really made up for it. Me and Mikey spent this episode pointing out the story holes, the drama

My Mom showed this to me when I was about 10 and thank goodness because my bar for cinema was set pretty high from the jump. This is one of me and Charles' all time favorite films and we have been quoting it in real life for years so it's high time we review it proper.

Well, we're here. Yes I had to talk about Saltburn, the recent release by Emerald Fennell. I can't remember a time where I've seen a film twice in the theater within a week. There was just something that grabbed me from the first trailer viewing that I knew I had to see this on the big screen. Because I haven't shut up about it over the past three weeks I had to enlist both Charles and Mikey that I saw it with on two different occasions for this special episode.

It's not officially the Christmas season without a rewatch of the 90s classic, Home Alone. I have some residual trauma around this film from when I was kid and I only now as an adult really see the true chaotic and terrifying nature of it all. Me and Mikey talk the memories of our youth we have with the film, how Macaulay CARRIED, and basically want to call child services on the worst family imaginable.

I finally have Mikey and Jules on a podcast together to talk about our favorite girl group from across the pond. We basically spend sooo much time reliving our childhoods, the countless FASHION moments, and how the critics got this whole premise too wrong. off topic rants include: AbFab, Madonna, Josie and the Pussycats, and Elon Musk conspiracy theories watch the
