Practice your best Minnesota accent with us this week, as Jen Lo joins us to discuss the cult classic Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999).  We dig in to the near-perfect small town specificity, all-star cast, and deep cringe of this incredible film. Other important topics discussed include: the film's critical failure, the rampant fatphobia of the 1990s, Kirsten Dunst's icon status, and hotels with the pool in the middle.

Thanks so much to Jen for joining us this week!
