Oh hey! Sorry for the delay, Matt was really busy for a few weeks so we had to take a break. But, hey: we've back, talking with Madeline Lane-McKinley, feminist writer, parent, teacher, and author of Solidarity with Children: an Essay Against Adult Supremacy (Haymarket, 2026). We discuss Weapons, Zach Cregger's recent 2025 horror comedy/suburban Brothers Grimm pastiche. Topics include: the figure of the witch in contemporary society, suburban life and Fortress Mindset, how cruddy the cops in this movie are, how the film wants us to process Gladys, and Julia Garner's incredible Madonna hair. 

Madeline's book is available here at a fabulous price. Follow them here!

Check out the show on Letterboxd if you're into that thing. Matt is also on there. And got a Bluesky going.

Our next episode will be about J'Accuse, Abel Gance's first film about the horrors of WW1.
