Hostel 43Ep11: Sex and the City (pt.2)And just like that... we're back with part 2 of our Sex & the City review. This week we look back on some of the show's more #problematic story-lines and it's shocking lack of good representation. We also discuss: how it should have ended, Samantha's exceptional shamelessness, and why Carrie is the absolute worst. As usual don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast, so you don't miss out on our next TV review come 2022.2021-12-161h 35Hostel 43Ep10: Sex and the City (pt.1)With the recent reboot of a 90's classic, we couldn't help but wonder if a Sex & the City review was in order. A show that is simultaneously contemporary and nostalgic, progressive and regressive, seductive and (at times) cringey. Join us for part 1 as we analyse two of our four leading ladies- Charlotte, and Miranda. We talk about: Charlotte's *determination* to find a husband, why your 20's probably aren't your prime years, how Hillary Clinton is clearly a Miranda, and the mystery that is men. 2021-12-091h 46Hostel 43Ep9: The Queen's GambitWe get a little personal on this week's episode as we review the 2020 Historical, coming-of-age, drama- The Queen's Gambit. Using our limited knowledge of chess...and life... we discuss Beth's stylish genius persona, her "not like other girls" qualities, her addictions, obsessions, and the story-lines that were a little too far-fetched.2021-11-221h 28Hostel 43Ep8: The Vampire Diaries (pt.2)And we're back with more Vampire Diaries discourse!
