This episode tests the limits of how many times we can use the words 'volatile', 'vulgar', and 'Vaseline' in one hour. Noah, Meg, and Eliza disagree on whether Paul Verhoeven's 'Showgirls' is actually a genius satire of Hollywood ambition, or just a gross movie with too much sexual waterboarding. Then, we discuss and defend Demi Moore's widely loathed performance in 'Striptease'.
You can look but you can't touch our most EXPLICIT episode yet, which features celebrity name-dropping and mention of a cockroach in yoghurt (not a euphemism). THRUST IT!!! THRUST IT!!!!! THRUST IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
