Fashion Grunge Podcast - April 24, 2024 07:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 28 ratings
It's time for another interview series! I've been a student of Meghan's through her insightful TikTok, and I knew that I had to talk to her about being in the epicenter of what became known as 'grunge' in Seattle in the late 80s/90s. We had a time and covered so much ground.  Some of the points...

Yet another time for me to exercise my reality tv brain and who better than Kara Berry?   I'm a superfan of her Bravo recaps  each week on Everyone's Business (but mine) Podcast  so I couldn't wait to find out where it all started. We get into Real World seasons being the lead in and where we f...

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?  W...

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

Fashion Grunge Podcast - March 26, 2024 07:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 28 ratings
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 div...

Vroom! I’m here on another solo adventure to talk about one of my foundational films, Gone in 60 Seconds. For me this movie had it all. An incredible cast, LA streets, and the CARS! For this episode I talk about my own history with loving cars, Angelina Jolie as Sway being the blueprint, and wh...

Fashion Grunge Podcast - February 18, 2024 12:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 28 ratings
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 ...

175: Congratulations, you've discovered life beyond MTV. | Girl (1998)

Fashion Grunge Podcast - February 11, 2024 12:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 28 ratings
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 ...

Fashion Grunge Podcast - January 28, 2024 12:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 28 ratings
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 goo...

Fashion Grunge Podcast - January 14, 2024 12:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 28 ratings
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...

172: If you wanna smoke, you can smoke in the trunk. | Excess Baggage (1997)

Fashion Grunge Podcast - January 07, 2024 12:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 28 ratings
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 w...

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.  ...

Fashion Grunge Podcast - December 24, 2023 12:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 28 ratings
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 hav...

In keeping with our 'domestic drama' theme we wandered into by accident, we're talking Reversal of Fortune from 1990. Based on the true story and legal case of Claus von Bülow told through the eyes of his lawyer Alan Dershowitz. This was Charles' pick and from my  glance of this trailer I though...

Better late than never. It's still the weekend of the Thanksgiving holiday so here is another holiday themed film that fits the bill. I have heard of this one but it's a first time watch for me. The cast was an immediate draw that made me so amped to finally review.  Me and Charles talked about...

Groovy baby, yeah!  Yes, even I can't believe there are movies that we haven't talked about yet and we're over 150 episodes in. This is another example of just that. Austin Powers is a comfort film for me that I didn't' realize until I started this review. The soundtrack has been burned into my...
