19. The Trial of the Chicago 7: The Wackiest Trial

This week Elizabeth covers the 2020 film The Trial of the Chicago 7 which is a historical drama that discusses the riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The protest was wild... but the trial was even wilder! Since Sabrina didn't have the chance to sit down and watch this movie she is taken through a range of emotions... love, laughter, tears... you get the idea. As always, thank you for supporting the show!

This week Sabrina covers the 2005 movie Dark Water and the creepy connections the movie has to the disappearance of Elisa Lam in 2013 … a girl goes missing, gross dark water… you get the idea.

17. Blonde: The Tragic Tale of Marilyn Monroe

Boy is this one a doozy. Elizabeth and Sabrina both work to process through their emotional hangovers following the 2022 Netflix Original Blonde. While the real life story doesn't quite align with this over dramatization of Marilyn Monroe's life, the real story of Marilyn Monroe isn't too much better. Join Elizabeth as she expands on the parts of Marilyn's story that were true to the movie and others that might not have been - and learn more than you would probably ever want to actually know about JFK along the way! As always, thank you for the support!
