"I ain't got much time. I don't expect to live past 21. That's why I got to jam it all in now, you know?"
The Wives Colangelo are kicking off a brand new year by going back to 1980 to hang out with two best friends who are definitely in love and ready to take over TIMES SQUARE. The Wives discuss the brilliance of Robin Johnson, old-school teenage rebellion, edy teen films that are actually edgy, and the ways punk rock behavior hasn't exactly aged well. If Allan Moyle is in the director's chair, you know it's going to be a good one!

"God, the '80s are wild."
The Wives Colangelo are closing out the year by going back in time to the 1980s, fighting a slasher, and laughing their faces off with Today in Gay's Nay Bever! Topics on this week's episode include the true crime podcast industrial complex, the way preemptive statements are ruining us all, and how much worse all of our mommy issues would be if we went back in time and found out our moms were actually bullies.

"I am not hiding you! I am hiding me! Okay?"
It's the holiday season and The Wives Colangelo are diving headfirst into the discourse surrounding the lesbian rom-com that people have Very Strong Feelings about, Clea DuVall's 2020 feature, HAPPIEST SEASON. BJ compares Harper's family to the Von Erichs of THE IRON CLAW, Harmony talks about why she's not much of a Christmas girlie, and together they try to bring some much-needed balance to the polarizing discourse plaguing this movie every year.

"That's life. If nothing else, it's life. It's real, and sometimes it f*ckin' hurts, but it's sort of all we have."
20 years ago, Zach Braff made his feature directorial debut with a little indie film that won over the hearts of critics and audiences and changed the way female protagonists would be showcased in quarter-life crisis films forever. Despite the love shown to the film upon release, the years have not been kind to GARDEN STATE, and The Wives Colangelo are going to get to the bottom of why the tides have turned against it. Not to be dramatic, but put on your headphones because this episode will change your life.

"Do you think I'm weird?"
Four years ago, the hosts of this podcast fell in love with a movie called DINNER IN AMERICA, and the underground sensation has finally gotten the attention it has always deserved. In honor of this cult hit's evolution into an indie phenomenon, The Wives Colangelo are finally talking about their favorite movie (as a couple), waxing poetic about being Midwest trash, praising Kyle Gallner and Emily Skeggs' phenomenal performances, and maybe crying a little bit about how this movie changed their lives.

"I have to tell you a secret that will see you through all the trials that life can offer. Have courage and be kind."
It's the fourth Cinderella story covered on This Ends at Prom, and the one with the most heart. The Wives Colangelo are joined by comedian Fifi Dosch to talk about why CINDERELLA (2015) is an essential watch during times of turmoil, explore the film's unintentional neurodivergent and trans themes, gush about a Prince worthy of our Ella, and praise the power of sentimental cinema.

"If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why oh why can't I?"
With the premiere of WICKED just days away, The Wives Colangelo are going back 85 years to discuss arguably the most-watched film in history, and one that happens to also be a teen girl movie — The Wizard of Oz. A film that has been analyzed for decades, This Ends at Prom is focusing on Dorothy's journey into a technicolor world of escapism, recognizing the parallels between Dorothy Gale and Judy Garland's bleak coming-of-age experiences, and losing it over the Scarecrow's weapon of choice. Surrender Dorothy! We're off to see the wizard!

"Once, there was this day... this one day when... everyone realized they needed each other."
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, so The Wives Colangelo are discussing a rare festive film. Most people remember PIECES OF APRIL for the cover art of an alternative Katie Holmes with choppy bangs and box-dyed red hair, but few remember the micro-budget charm of a story about an estranged young woman attempting to host what might be the last holiday she ever has with her family before her mother passes from cancer. With an Oscar-nominated performance from Patricia Clarkson and a message of how family can go beyond your blood relatives, let PIECES OF APRIL be the warm hug you need ahead of what may be a tumultuous holiday season with your own family.
BONUS: Poppa Colangelo stops by to tell a little family story! (Stay for the end of episode button, trust us.)

"You can't let Dick run your life!"
We were hoping the election would turn out much different than it did, but this isn't the first time America has dealt with a crook for a president, and statistically speaking, won't be the last. To distract us from the impending horrors, we're celebrating the 25th anniversary of the teen-girls-take-down-the-president classic, DICK. Full disclosure, this episode is probably going to get BURIED by algorithms based on the film's name so if you want to do us a solid and share this week's episode with a friend, we'll make you some Hello Dolly cookies! (We won't, that'd be too dangerous to ship).
We love you. Thank you for listening. Let's unfuck the world together.

"So many pretty parts and no pretty wholes."
Happy Halloween, Prom Party! The Wives Colangelo are closing out the most wonderful time of the year by diving into Lucky McKee's indie horror masterpiece, May. Grab your scissors and pile of doll parts because topics this week include the dreaded "things would be different if the roles were reversed" conversation, trying to determine what the inverse of pansexuality is, gushing about Angela Bettis, Anna Faris, Jeremy Sisto, and James Duval, and attempting to tackle the loneliness epidemic.

"Maybe demons aren’t the most trustworthy beings to make a deal with?"
Spooky season continues on with the best stop-motion movie from Henry Selick to watch during Halloween, and we're not talking about the one with Jack Skellington. Join The Wives Colangelo for the gateway horror movie with the best ska and punk soundtrack imaginable, WENDELL & WILD. Discussions this week include navigating thoughts of mortality, introducing children to the concept of the school-to-prison pipeline, and what it means to fight your inner demons.

"Well, the idea that there was any control to begin with is a f*cking illusion. There's only one thing in the universe we have even the tiniest bit of control over -- ourselves."
Y'all wanna hear an episode about independent filmmaking and telling passionate stories? In a special spooky season treat, The Wives Colangelo are joined by director Clare Cooney to talk about her latest feature film, the queer supernatural high school slasher, DEPARTING SENIORS. Together the trio discuss the horror movies that inspired the picture, the evolution of the "final girl," and what it was like to work with Yani "Paolo Valisari in the Lizzie McGuire Movie" Gellman after years of acting in horror movies.
Check out DEPARTING SENIORS now on Tubi TV or on VOD.

"Never let anyone pick on you. Otherwise, you'll carry it with you the rest of your life."
10 years ago, Adam Wingard, Simon Barrett, Dan Stevens, and Maika Monroe joined forces to make one of the best indie action thrillers set on Halloween, THE GUEST. This is the movie that introduced genre fans to Dan Stevens and proved that Wingard and Barrett could do more than just horror. A decade later, The Wives Colangelo are here to discuss why the film makes for a perfect Halloween watch, and why more people need to listen to 20-year-old girls when they think the vibes are off about a handsome man!

"Whatever you do... don't fall asleep."
A Nightmare on Elm Street is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, so The Wives Colangelo are joined by guests Julia Marchese and Teri Gamble of The Horror Movie Survival Guide podcast to talk about the slasher greatness of Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger, why practical effects will always reign supreme, and why Heather Langenkamp's Nancy Thompson is the ultimate final girl. We're pretending palm trees exist in Ohio, remembering a time when Johnny Depp was someone worth pining, and paying our respects to teen horror maestro, the late, great Wes Craven.

"We didn’t know the Wolfwalkers were real. That you were people."
Inside you, there are two wolves... and they're both gay and looking for family and community who love you unconditionally. This week The Wives Colangelo are joined by film critic Leigh Monson to discuss one of the most criminally underseen coming-of-age animated films of the last decade, the incredible WOLFWALKERS from Cartoon Saloon. Together the trio discusses the film's queer metaphors, gush about beautiful storybook animation, and discuss whether or not the film was snubbed at the Oscars.

"Crying helps me slow down and obsess over the weight of life's problems."
This Ends at Prom's month of animation continues with a Pixar film about an 11-year-old girl that made grown adults sob to the point of dry heaving. It's the movie where even feelings have feelings, so The Wives Colangelo are gonna have a whole lot of them with INSIDE OUT. Let's discuss which parts make BJ and Harmony cry, explain why all emotions are important emotions, and celebrate the fact Richard Kind finally makes an appearance on the show!

"Kids. Little kids. They grow up believing that they can be a hero if they drive a sword into the heart of anything different. And I'm the monster?"
To help raise awareness of the fight of The Animation Guild's quest for a better contract, The Wives Colangelo are kicking off a month of celebrating recently released animated coming-of-age films and starting with NIMONA. Let's talk about queerness, introducing heavy themes to children, not shying away from issues of mental health, and BJ breaks her record for the time it takes to start crying in an episode! IT'S TIME TO BREAK STUFF, LET'S GET METAL!

"We are not one-dimensional. We are smart and fun!"
This Ends at Prom turns four this week, which means we're finally seniors! To celebrate, we're honoring five years of BOOKSMART, one of the best teen girl movies of the 21st century and a perfect time capsule of millennial nostalgia and liberal politics. BJ admits that she's a lot more like Beanie Feldstein's Molly than she'd ever care to admit, Harmony gushes over how much she loves Skyler Gisondo and Bille Lourd, and together they try to figure out why BOOKSMART continues to get outshined by LADY BIRD.
THANK YOU FOR AN INCREDIBLE FOUR YEARS, PROM PARTY! WE LOVE YOU!

"We knew the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love, and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them."
Sofia Coppola's directorial debut delivered the world a new look at the Lisbon Sisters, undeniably feminine atmospheric filmmaking, an examination of the way men examine women, and generations of women responded by romanticizing their pain and aestheticizing turmoil as a means of processing negative emotions. This week, the Wives Colangelo are joined by a dear friend of the show, Miranda Zickler, to discuss why THE VIRGIN SUICIDES is a seminal film and one of the most important films in the teen girl canon.

"You really need to stop shoving your psychotic idea of '50s womanhood down my throat."
15 years ago, Drew Barrymore and Elliot Page joined forces to deliver a fresh new take on the teenage girl's coming-of-age experience with WHIP IT. Not only did the film help introduce roller derby to the masses, but it proved there's more to girlhood than beauty pageants and pleasing Marcia Gay Harden. Pick out your derby name and get ready to jam, because The Wives Colangelo are ready to run the rink.
