For A Good Time...

Episode 6 – Score

In your hosts' return from the slumber of Isabelle (she/her) Needing A Break, her and Juan (they/them) dive into the porno chic mines again and return with shimmering gold. Score, Radley Metzger's swinging mini-masterpiece, is not only beautifully shot, wonderfully acted, and hilariously written, it has more more to say with its progressive sexual politics than most prestige queer films coming out today. It also inspires a lengthy discussion about polyamory, so have fun with that. Elvira forever. Score can be purchased from Cult Epics: http://www.cultepics.com/product-detail/score/ Links: The podcast can be followed @foragoodtimepod and you can send any questions or…

1.32 – My Gay Trans Costellos
Middlebrow Madness

1.32 – My Gay Trans Costellos

It was bound to happen sooner or later, sports fans: we finally cracked two hours. Naturally, this episode is packed to the gills with tangents about crawdads and Twitter Jail and Derek's dubious acting career. Not that there isn't any movie talk at all: Isabelle has a galaxy-brain take to end all galaxy-brain takes regarding one of our competitors, and Derek, well, he mostly just puts on his Film Bro(tm) hat on for this one. But any way you slice it, once these two matches are through, we will officially 25% of the way to figuring out what exactly is…

1.31 – Dog Food-Flavoured Human Food

Sports fans, a good podcast episode is only as good as its digressions, and this one has several (shocking, I know). What do our intrepid hosts talk about that isn't the four movies listed below? Isabelle's corny jokes! Derek's pet theory about musical theatre! One of them reads a little Faulkner! Which host, you ask? Listen to yet another classic episode on the road to crowning The Greatest Movie of All Time* and find out! Punctuation!!! This week's matchups: Witness for the Prosecution v. Rang De Basanti Coco v. Stalker See the bracket [SPOILERS AHEAD] Drop us a line: [email protected]…

Episode 5 – Tattoo / Ink Addition
For A Good Time...

Episode 5 – Tattoo / Ink Addition

Content Warning: Brief Discussion of Needles Sorry for the delay perverts, but For A Good Time... is here, and it's a double feature! Juan (they/them) and Isabelle (she/her) discuss two films made almost half a century apart that are both about tattoos and the ways we appreciate and fetishize them. The cultural role of masculinity and body modification feature heavily, as well as getting pubic hair in your mouth while eating someone out. There's something for everyone! (Also at one point while discussing the cultural position of homosexuality in the 70's, Isabelle uses the word "legal" when she meant "illegal"…

Middlebrow Madness

1.30 – Bladder Game on Lock

Sports fans, we nominally talk movies about on the show, but you know what else crops up a lot in this, our landmark 30th episode and our first missive of 2021? Racism in Hollywood, and piss. Lots of it. Not necessarily in that order. We go short on some masterpieces and long on what Derek loves to call "rich texts." There's even a little metagaming going on. All in all, another classic episode on the road to crowning The Greatest Movie of All Time*. This week's matchups: The Kid v. Gone With the Wind Diabolique v. The Green Mile A…

For A Good Time...

Episode 4 – Sex World

Happy New Year everyone! Ring it in the right way by listening to your favorite perverts Juan (they/them) and Isabelle (she/her) talk about the science fiction porno classic from 1978, recently lovingly restored by the fine folks at Vinegar Syndrome (who your hosts simp for, 100%). There's ambiguously problematic sexual content, killer set design (Tokyo Drifter is invoked, natch), and a funky fresh theme song, so what could really go wrong? (Most of the things that don't involve lesbians, turns out, but that's true in the real world too.) Purchase Sex World from Vinegar Syndrome once they reopen their storefront…

1.29 – Cashiers du cinéma

Sports fans, you are getting four podcasts for the price of one this week! In addition to the usual movie bracket-based shenanigans, we have a QAnon-skewering politics podcast at the top, a short true-crime missive in the middle, and a full-on miniature games podcast to close the whole thing out. Digressive? Us? Perish the thought. The march towards crowning the Greatest Movie of All Time* continues! This week's matchups: To Kill a Mockingbird v. Gran Torino Psycho v. La La Land Isabelle's favourite murder (Hinterkaifeck murders | Wikipeda) See the bracket [SPOILERS AHEAD] Drop us a line: [email protected] Follow the…

Episode 3 – Belladonna: Fetish Fanatic Chapter 4
For A Good Time...

Episode 3 – Belladonna: Fetish Fanatic Chapter 4

Content Warning: Gagging Sounds In episode 3 of For A Good Time..., Juan (they/them) and Isabelle (she/her) finally throw their minds into the gutter. Your hosts discuss the lesbian gonzo Sasha Grey / Belladonna scene from Fetish Fanatic 4, and talk an awful lot about throatfucking. There's also talk about the line between performance and reality, the ways in which porn acting is a lot like physical comedy, and what the camera can add stylistically to a genre defined by its ostensible lack of artifice and pretense. But those are secondary to the throatfucking. (Also there is a too-brief discussion…

1.28 – A Golden Gavel from Harry Anderson
Middlebrow Madness

1.28 – A Golden Gavel from Harry Anderson

Running parallel to our intrepid hosts' quest for the Greatest Movie of All Time* is their quest to make each episode of the show longer and more digressive than the previous one. And sports fans? Both quests are humming along quite nicely. So what treasures does this episode contain? The residual evils of pandemic capitalism! An NBC fantasy miniseries no one remembers! A song lyric open mic! And oh yeah, two of the greatest masterpieces of world cinema going head-to-head in a first-round matchup better befitting the Sweet Sixteen. Plus, of course, takes, takes, and more takes. In short, another…

Episode 2 – Nitrate Kisses
For A Good Time...

Episode 2 – Nitrate Kisses

We're already here, the point where we whine about tenderqueers for 30 minutes. In today's episode of For A Good Time..., Isabelle (she/her) and Juan (they/them) tackle Barbara Hammer's experimental documentary Nitrate Kisses, a film about history and remembrance that gives us time to reflect on why those things are important to homos like us. We discuss the queer gaze, the ways we discover ourselves through seeing others, and how many modern queer communities seem eager to forget the past. A heavier episode, but one we're proud of. Buy a DVD of Nitrate Kisses here: http://barbarahammer.com/films/nitrate-kisses/ Links: The podcast can…
