For their latest artist profile, Matt and Ed decided to discuss the work of Susan Sarandon. As well as talking about her breakthrough as Janet in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and career highlights from the '80s and '90s, they talk about what the different roles she has played say about sexism in Hollywood and how her choices both play into and challenge it, whether or not her work in an Adam Sandler vehicle can be classified as a transgression against the Orthodoxy, and Ed describes the near breakdown he had while watching the ensemble monstrosity that is The Big Wedding.
They also find time to offer a radical solution to the woes befalling the Twin Peaks revival and get really angry about Hollywood's diversity problems.
