Josie and the Pussycats & Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (with Ella Talkin)

DuJour means friendship. DuJour means family. DuJour means seatbelts. And most importantly, DuJour means podcast.

Illustrator and graphic designer Ella Talkin joins us this week to discuss a pair of early 2000s feminist comedies that updated their respective properties to the candy-colored MTV era of filmmaking. First up, it's the millennial sleepover classic and pop culture satire, "Josie and the Pussycats" starring Rachael Leigh Cook, Rosario Dawson and Tara Reid as the titular Pussycats, followed by the 2003 sequel "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle" starring Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu in their full throttle return to the franchise.

Has any early 2000s film simultaneously captured the zeitgeist and remained so radically ahead of its time as "Josie and the Pussycats"? Would it have slipped through the studio cracks in a post-9/11 America with its timely skewering of the rise of brand capitalism and TRL-approved tastemakers? Is it possible to pick a single MVP in a movie so stacked with great performances and faux-pop songs that you'd actually listen to in real life? Is there a single director that's more 2000s than McG? What the fuck is happening with Justin Theroux's accent in "Charlie's Angels" and why do we love it so much? Are low rise jeans really back? And more importantly, is Ghislaine Maxwell just a misunderstood girl boss? We're answering all these pressing questions and more, right now on America's #1 podcast.

"Josie and the Pussycats" is streaming now on STARZ, while "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle" is available to rent wherever you rent movies!
