Hosted by Edward Michael Francis (they/them/theirs)
Each week, we dissect one film, TV, music, books, and gaming through a communist lens—unpacking labor, class, queer subtext, and unintentional revolutionary messaging in mainstream cinema.
From camp classics to capitalist cautionary tales, we read between the reels to expose what the script doesn’t tell you 📽️🌹

This is one of our most personal discussions yet — about grief, control, and the quiet revolutions that happen inside a family. Ordinary People isn’t just our favorite drama; it’s a mirror for what happens when love becomes performance and silence becomes survival.
This episode is part of our November Birthday Month celebration — a chance for you to get to know our family a little better, including our honorary co-host, Myron the cat, who supervised this edit by purring through the final mix.
Listen, think, feel, and maybe call home after.
