34 - Grease

July 20, 2020 13:00 - 56 minutes - 38.8 MB

WARNING: this podcast episode is automatic... it's systematic... it's hyyyyyyydromatic... Why, it's Grease Lightning! YES, we've finally tackled the most iconic teen movie that's not actually a teen movie, that stars exclusively middle-aged actors and where the concept of time is just not a thing. If you've ever caught yourself idly wondering 'I wonder what Heather's favourite Grease song is?' or 'I wonder which one of the T-Birds Jemma fancies most?' then this is the episode for you. We als...

32 - Can't Hardly Wait

June 23, 2020 11:00 - 1 hour - 41.6 MB

Wow, we can't hardly wait until the memory of this extremely mediocre film is wiped from our brains forever. This movie is useful only as a vehicle for the succession of before-they-were-famous cameos this film offers up (oh hey, Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Turk from Scrubs) - beyond that it's kind of a hot mess. WHY do the boring, entitled guys always get the girl they know nothing about except that she's hot? Why do people in teen movies love staging gay love scenes to humiliate jocks? A...

31 - The Half Of It

June 10, 2020 11:00 - 59 minutes - 40.9 MB

Listen to your two favourite halves (us of course) talk about this 2020 Netflix teen flick. It's the classic PreTenDinG YoU'Re SoMEone eLse movie trope with lots of pretentious dialogue, many discussions about love and of course: Yakult!

30 - Freaky Friday

May 26, 2020 12:00 - 54 minutes - 37.2 MB

Welcome back to our THIRTIETH EPISODE! To celebrate, we're reviewing a film that truly stands the test of time (other than its stereotyping of Asian 'voodoo' magic). Even though today is Tuesday, let's pretend it's Friday, because it's time to get FREAKY.  We've got a few questions for you: were you a Hilary or a Lindsay? And if you were JLC who would you want to snog: bad boy Chad Michael Murray or Hollywood stepdad Ryan from NCIS? (Jemma knows which side she's on.) All jokes aside, this is...

29 - What a Girl Wants

May 12, 2020 10:00 - 55 minutes - 38.1 MB

This 2003 delightful movie has got all the ingredients to make a great watch: old skool Amanda Bynes (come back to us, Amanda!), Colin Firth, some evil posh English people, a very hot American boho mom and Heather's fave: the forgotten Oliver James! Make yourself a cup of tea, get comfy and enjoy us talking about this absolute gem of an early 00's teen movie.

28 - High School Musical 3: Senior Year

April 30, 2020 08:00 - 1 hour - 41.3 MB

Buckle up Guys, gals & non-binary pals, it's time for the third and FINAL instalment of our High School Musical mini-series! Once again, we're back at East High for a musical within a musical. Are there insanely well choreographed dance sequences? Yes. Does Gabriella sing some entirely forgettable solos while walking around looking sad? Yes. Does Troy battle his demons through song? HELL YES HE DOES. So, Yes Another Teen Movie listeners, just one question remains - can we have this dance?

27 - High School Musical 2

April 14, 2020 20:00 - 54 minutes - 37.3 MB

What time is it? SUMMERTIME! The gang is back for round 2 and the quality of film has noticeably dropped in this deranged sequel.

26 - High School Musical

April 08, 2020 12:00 - 56 minutes - 39.2 MB

What team?! WILDCATS!! What team?! WILDCATS!! In times of adversity it's natural to want to regress back to your childhood, so Heather and Jemma are doing exactly that in this episode and throwing it all the way back to September '06. Do you remember sitting down in front of the Disney Channel, along with 7 million other people, to watch a film that would become - let's be real - one of the biggest, cheesiest pop culture references of an emerging generation? Sure you do. So put on your Juic...

25 - Pretty in Pink

March 29, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 43.5 MB

We're back tackling an absolute John Hughes classic: Pretty in Pink!  It's got great 80's fashion, Molly Ringwald and an amazing soundtrack. It also has the most boring romantic interest, a very annoying quirky friend and a 35 year old woman who hangs around with highschool kids... 

24 - To All The Boys I've Loved Before 2: PS, I Still Love You

March 10, 2020 09:00 - 51 minutes - 35.5 MB

PS I Love You 2? PS I Sill Love Boys? Hello Boys I Still Love You? Whatever this movie is called, we're here to talk about it. Is Lara Jean Covey still annoying as ever? Has Chris gone to more EDM concerts? Are Peter Kavinsky and John Ambrose the Edward and Jacob of Generation Z? Ugh, who cares (PS We Still Do.)

February 04, 2020 22:00 - 47 minutes - 32.4 MB

This week Jemma and Heather travel back in time to the '80's to crush on Patrick Dempsey in his first role. Expect bitchy cliques, big hair and suede outfits galore. Oh, and we solve a riddle that's plagued the podcast since Episode 8!

21 - Raise Your Voice

January 21, 2020 17:00 - 56 minutes - 39.1 MB

In this episode Jemma and Heather raise their voices and talk about the Hilary Duff movie (nope, not the Lizzie McGuire Movie) in which she and her choppy 2004 fringe head off to LA, to go find her voice, wear a lot of Juicy Couture tracksuits and finally stand up to her abusive dad.

19 - Tall Girl

November 12, 2019 10:00 - 56 minutes - 38.7 MB

Listen up, tall girls! And short girls, and any girls and boys in between. Jemma and Heather are bored stiff by Netflix's latest original, and you will be too, so listen to our podcast about it instead.

18 - The Craft

October 31, 2019 07:00 - 47 minutes - 32.6 MB

It's spooooooky season so this week the gals grab their goth garb, call upon some demons and discuss the 90's high school supernatural classic The Craft. Enjoy, witches! 

17 - Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging

October 16, 2019 10:00 - 1 hour - 42.6 MB

Heather & Jemma tackle the best British teen movie OF ALL TIME in this raucous, highly quotable episode. Was Slaggy Lindsay the real victim of Robbie's fuckboy-ness? Is Ultraviolet the most underrated song of the new millennium? Does wearing a thong mean you're from Vulgaria? If you already think our podcast is Beyond the Valley of Awesome, this is going to make you laugh like a loon on loon tablets. Quality lushness! 

16 - LOL

October 02, 2019 19:00 - 51 minutes - 35.5 MB

"Laugh. out. loud. SEND!" This week the girls can't agree whether this is the best teen movie ever made or the worst. Miley Cyrus and Demi Moore (what else is Demi Moore in apart from Ghost?) shine as a raspy voiced mom and daughter duo in this 2012 teen movie. It's full of cringe "teen speak", way too many plot lines and some emo looking jocks. Basically: it's a delight. 

15 - Napoleon Dynamite

September 16, 2019 11:00 - 42 minutes - 29.2 MB

Proof that Heather and Jemma don't need to enjoy something to make it hilarious. Is there anything these girls can't do?! Sing, maybe (Jemma), or in Heather's case, deal with the cringey awkwardness that pervades this week's movie, Napoleon Dynamite!! Listen at your peril.

14 - SPF 18

September 03, 2019 19:00 - 47 minutes - 32.4 MB

Is this the worst movie we've ever seen? Maybe. Is meant to be bad on purpose? Maybe.  Heather described this 2017 teen flick starring Noah Centineo as "The Room of teen movies". Be thankful that we watched this train wreck of a movie so you don't have to. You're welcome. 

13 - Booksmart

July 23, 2019 15:00 - 52 minutes - 36.4 MB

In this episode we discuss Olivia Wilde's masterpiece: Booksmart. Spoiler alert: WE LOVED IT. 

12 - The Perfect Date

June 11, 2019 13:00 - 48 minutes - 33.3 MB

We should probably call this podcast "Yes, Another Noah Centineo Movie" because we went for it again. Our problematic crush stars in the 2019 Netflix teen romcom The Perfect Date and man, this is the most inoffensive teen romcom we've seen in a while. We couldn't agree more with this random reviewer on the World Wide Web who wrote: "Netflix's latest teen-focused movie isn't a perfect date, per se, but it’s not the worst, either." So ladies and gents, grab your lover, put in an earphone eac...

11 - Sixteen Candles

May 14, 2019 22:00 - 52 minutes - 24 MB

What's your favourite part of Sixteen Candles, the date rape scene or the casual racism? We kind of hated all of it, tbh. Heather and Jemma reluctantly accept that the '80s may not have been the greatest decade to be a teen, and that John Hughes didn't always get it right. Related topics: Heather's sexual awakening happened during Lord of the Rings. Ew. And Jemma accepts some sticky toffee pudding from her flatmate.  DISCLAIMER: due to some technical difficulties there's some overlap betwee...

10 - The Edge of Seventeen

April 30, 2019 12:00 - 48 minutes - 22 MB

Jemma and Heather are feeling 17 again (hey, Zac Efron!) as they ride the wave of teen angst flowing through Kelly Fremon Craig's 2016 film. Awkward teen sexting, Woody Harrelson and more ferris wheel kissing are all the agenda for this week. Oh, and enjoy Heather's masturbation anthem, it's a once-in-a-podcast moment!

9 - Never Been Kissed

April 15, 2019 17:00 - 48 minutes - 22.3 MB

In this episode, Heather and Jemma get bitten by the Millennium Bug and go all the way back to 1999 to thank god that their lives were never as lame as Drew Barrymore's heroine, Josie, in Never Been Kissed. Pink satin prom dresses and argyle sweaters are the dress code for this week. Rufus, dude! 

8 - Easy A

March 24, 2019 23:00 - 48 minutes - 22.3 MB

Everyone loves Easy A, the first truly feminist teen movie, right? WRONG!!! Listen to Jemma and Heather get angry about slut-shaming while falling in love with Stanley Tucci, the ULTIMATE Hollywood dad. Also, we channel our inner Aly & AJ by singing The Potential Podcast Song. Hell yeah, mid-to-late aughts!

7 - Bring it On

March 10, 2019 23:00 - 45 minutes - 20.9 MB

Roger Elbert described the 2000 classic 'Bring it On' as "The Citizen Kane of cheerleader movies" and we couldn't agree more! Listen to Jemma and Heather getting the timing wrong on the opening cheer and swoon with us over the famous toothbrush scene.  Ready?! OK! 

6 - Say Anything

January 27, 2019 16:00 - 50 minutes - 23 MB

Everyone knows about the boombox, but do they know about the Creepiest Dad in the World, what not to wear to your first high school rager and how utterly adorbs a young John Cusack was? We think not, so we decided to enlighten you - it's kind of our job. You're welcome. 

5 - The Princess Diaries

January 13, 2019 23:00 - 43 minutes - 19.8 MB

Heather and Jemma don their tiaras to discuss the ultimate teen girl fantasy film, The Princess Diaries. Why do all Genovians speak English with English accents? Why does Michael Moscowitz look so like a young Ringo Starr? And why is Lily such a BAD FRIEND? The answers lie within.

4 - Wild Child

January 02, 2019 11:00 - 44 minutes - 20.6 MB

Heather and Jemma go wild for the 2008 classic starring Emma Roberts as a spoiled Miami princess turned English private-schoolgirl. Content warning: Jemma's fetish for men in breeches.

December 16, 2018 18:00 - 53 minutes - 24.7 MB

Heather and Jemma discuss the much-hyped 2018 Netflix original, To All The Boys I've Loved Before. This one's dedicated to all our exes. #thankunext
