There is JLo in an incredible fur coat! We discuss why this movie wasn't given the awards season treatment, the very legitimate Ramona x Destiny ship, recent "Netflix-ifciation" of A-list actors, ethics of scamming Wall Street finance bros, and some Juicy Couture archive pulls.

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by filmmaker, video essayist and actor Ben Chinapen for our fave fim of the year (so far). Luca Guadagnino goes god mode with under the court shots, intense homoeroticism as always, and a real, actual, proper love triangle. We talk the club-ready Reznor & Ross score, how sex is tennis and tennis is sex, films shot but not set in Boston, messy bisexual longing, and a whole lot of phallic shaped foods.

Plus, once again, Jordan proposes including Tom Cruise in this franchise by any means necessary.
