Waiting to X-hale


Jul 26, 2019

'Tis the season for dogs wearing sunglasses, horndog teens and poolside rumpshakin'. Karen and Wynter get deep into summer shenanigans, both their own, and everything we've seen on screen since the 1980s. Karen is surrendering to yoga while catching up on Big Little Lies, while Wynter has some thoughts to share about all the online drama over casting a black Little Mermaid and black female 007. Alright, alright, alright: this week's title card showdown is a battle royale between two summer films from the 80s and 90s, Summer School vs. Dazed & Confused. Plus, more "nuo lingo"--HIGH KEY--and not one, but two summer songs of the week (SOTW).
