063: “Do you have some sort of businesswomen’s special?” | Romy and Michele's High School Reunion (1997)

This episode was first featured on our Patreon!This is my favorite episode of this seven part series for obvious reasons. It covers Nirvana and also introduced me to a bunch of other bands as well. Featuring one of my favorite people in music, Henry Rollins who gives his takes on the scene in the 80s. We hear from the producers on the construction of the songs, the fame aspect and pressures, and end on a somber note.Watch the episode: https://bit.ly/3ce8DGaThe rise of alternative rock in the USA. From its early underground days where bands like Black Flag drew inspiration from the DIY ethos of punk, Left Of The Dial traces the history of the network of fans, clubs and fanzines that sustained the scene and launched the careers of bands like R.E.M., The Pixies and Hüsker Dü. The film takes a fresh look at the explosion of the Seattle scene, culminating in the success of Nirvana's 'Nevermind' and the tragic loss of Kurt Cobain, an artist whose triumph and tragedy continues to cast an inescapable shadow.I made a playlist of the songs featured in the episode: https://spoti.fi/3qJEv9F----Get OVER 70 BONUS episodes on 90s & 00s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more movies...) and to support the show, join the PATREON for $5 a month! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeHosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryFollow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod

What a dark and yet somehow warm indie film. I vaguely remember watching this in high school and thinking it was really dark and mean but still there was something else there I liked. I enlisted Jules, the queen of quirky comedies to review this one with me. We get into sooo many things in the film that couldn't be done now, the hilarious quotes, and compare Dawn's wardrobe to our own childhood fashion. off-topic rants include: thrift shopping, nerd fashion, childhood crushes----Get OVER 70 BONUS episodes on 90s & 00s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more movies...) and to support the show, join the PATREON for $5 a month! www.patreon.com/fashiongrunge Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jules  @imdenmateMusic by Den-Mate @imdenmate Follow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod

For the full episode join our Patreon [patreon.com/fashiongrunge]For the next venture into classic cinema we're looking at the origins of the buzz word that everyone talks about, Gaslight. This film from 1944 is a literal masterclass in acting and film noir study. This was one of the first films that introduced me into the old Hollywood world and I'm glad that Charles is with me discussing this brilliant and riveting story. We get into the quirks of this story, the terrifying realism of Charles Boyer's character, and question why they made him so attractive. Off- topics rants include: other great classic films, Cary Grant, vintage Oscars goss ---Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show, join the PATREON!  www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeHosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Charles @charleshaslamMusic by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod

It reads like a 75% memoir of writer/director Zach Braff and literally hit me and Jai right in the feels during our rewatch. There were so many familiar emotions that came rushing back including how this soundtrack defined the 'indie generation' of the early 2000s. Garden State trailer: https://youtu.be/_CLzzUfDjUoSoundtrack: https://spoti.fi/3R0l1Zeoff-topic rants include: movie trailers, Rocky, and my new project FG Library---Get OVER 70 BONUS episodes on 90s & 00s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more movies...) and to support the show, join the PATREON for $5 a month! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeHosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryFollow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod

Get Glam! Get wild! Get kinda Bowie and Iggy? It's time to venture down the road of the 70s and glam rock. This styling is right up Jai's alley and we break down the looks we love and identify the future fashion it inspires. I on the other hand drool over Christian Bale in a baby tee.  off topic rants: Party Monster and the top 10 most popular episodes of the podcast---Get OVER 70 BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show, join the PATREON for $5 a month! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeHosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryFollow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod

This one was heavy. It's been a while since I've seen this film and it's been on my list to review. In a complete perfect casting that really gives such dimension to a difficult story to tell. Me and Jai talk about our research on the controversy surrounding the original source material, Brad Pitt's unusual lukewarm performance, and Brad Renfro.off topic points include: Keanu Reeves and his charming energy and air conditioning---Get OVER 60 BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show, join the PATREON for $5 a month! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeHosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryFollow Fashion Grunge PodcastInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod
