Phil and Emily are kicking off their new mini-series The Films of “The Todds”—a deep dive into the wildly different worlds of Todd Haynes, Todd Phillips, Todd Solondz, and Todd Field. And what better way to start than with one of the most chaotic, irreverent, and painfully 2000s comedies: Road Trip (2000).


Joining them for this raunchy, college-era nostalgia fest is film critic David Ehrlich (IndieWire), who helps break down the film’s R-rated antics, surprisingly tight script, and why Tom Green is the ultimate agent of chaos. Plus, they’re joined by special guest Amy Smart for a bonus interview, where she reflects on her experience making the movie and the 2000s comedy boom.


Get ready for gross-out gags, dorm room disasters, and a trip down memory lane with the ultimate party movie that defined a generation.


BONUS: Phil sits down with actress Amy Smart to reflect on her early career, from the chaos of Road Trip to the over-the-top antics of Starsky & Hutch. They dive into the wild world of 2000s comedy, the pressure of filming iconic scenes, and the unique challenges of being the “straight person” in movies full of larger-than-life characters like Tom Green and Ben Stiller.

Amy shares behind-the-scenes stories about navigating fratty set environments, balancing TV and film work, and the surreal experience of going from indie darling to mainstream star. Plus, she reveals the surprising connection between Todd Phillips and Quentin Tarantino that even die-hard fans might not know.




🎧 Buckle up for the first stop on the road to The Todds—it’s going to be a wild ride!

Octavia Red isn’t your average porn star. Raised in an ultra-religious home with a wild family dynamic, she went from theater kid to rebel, questioning everything along the way.

Octavia’s journey is raw, hilarious, and full of surprises, from navigating grief to embracing her artistic side. Find out how porn actually saved her life.

Octavia Red: How Porn Set Me Free

Phil and Emily are wrapping up their dive into Beyoncé’s films of the 2000s mini series with the wild, over-the-top thriller Obsessed (2009). Joining them for this high-stakes finale are Sidney Butler and Austin Harris, ready to break down the campy chaos of this Beyoncé vs. Ali Larter showdown.

From glass-shattering catfights to wildly intense stares, they unpack why Obsessed became a cult classic for messy movie lovers and why it holds a special place in Beyoncé’s filmography. They also explore the film’s place in the Fatal Attraction–inspired thriller boom, Idris Elba’s “perfect husband” energy, and the pure, unhinged joy of watching Queen Bey throw someone down a flight of stairs.

Is it a misunderstood thriller or a perfectly executed piece of camp? Tune in for this hilarious and fiery discussion to find out!

Phil and Emily continue their Beyoncé in the Movies Mini-Series with a deep dive into the 2008 musical biopic Cadillac Records, and they’re joined by writer and film critic Mike Natale to help unpack this rich (and underrated) chapter in Queen Bey’s acting career.


Beyoncé stars as the legendary Etta James in this chronicle of Chess Records and the rise of American blues and rock ’n’ roll. The trio explores her powerful performance, the film’s incredible music, and its blend of historical drama and star-studded musical storytelling.


They also discuss the film’s place in the biopic boom of the 2000s, Beyoncé’s evolution as both a dramatic actress and executive producer, and why Cadillac Records deserves more attention as a key turning point in her screen career.

39: Dreamgirls with Barrett Doss

This week on Holly Randall Unfiltered, we sit down with the fiercely unapologetic and refreshingly candid Gal Ritchie—a rising star whose journey from professional dominatrix in the UK to award winning adult performer is anything but ordinary.



In this episode, Gal opens up about her early beginnings, and the unconventional upbringing that shaped her confidence. With a progressive mother who brought her to burlesque shows and avant-garde art performances about sexuality, Gal was encouraged from a young age to explore her identity as a performer—not shamed for it.



She talks about how this open environment helped her make safer, more informed choices in sex work and why she feels proud—not victimized—by the path she’s chosen.

Gal also shares what it was like shooting her first adult scenes, winning the coveted Best New Performer at XBiz and AVN, navigating cultural differences after moving to Los Angeles, and what it’s like building friendships outside the industry. She offers razor-sharp insights into stigma, empowerment, and the freedom of separating sex from emotion.



This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the power of self-expression, the realities of sex work, and the courage it takes to live life on your own terms.

I Don’t Need Saving: Gal Ritchie on Sex Work, Power & Choice

Phil and Emily continue their Beyoncé in the Movies Mini-Series with a dive into 2006’s slapstick reboot The Pink Panther! Joining them are returning guests Brooke Solomon and Jordan Gustafson from Queer Quadrant, ready to unpack the chaotic energy of Steve Martin’s Inspector Clouseau—and Beyoncé’s role as the glamorous pop star turned murder suspect, Xania.


They discuss the film’s cartoonish tone, Martin’s commitment to physical comedy, and how Beyoncé brings surprising poise and presence to a film that’s very much doing the most. Is this the moment her movie-star persona fully crystallized? Or just a glittery detour on the way to Dreamgirls?


From cringe-y accents to unforgettable pink gowns, this episode is a fun, fast-paced look at a film that’s as messy as it is memorable.


🎧 Tune in for laughs, nostalgia, and a dash of 2000s chaos.

38: The Pink Panther with Brooke Solomon & Jordan Gustafson

In this episode of Holly Randall Unfiltered, we dive deep into the inspiring journey of Lelani Lee, a trailblazing black trans woman in the adult industry. Lelani candidly shares her early experiences with survival sex work to her transition into mainstream porn, making history as the first black trans woman to win two prestigious AVN Awards. 



But getting here wasn’t easy—Lelani faced some frightening and dangerous situations in her early days. She openly reflects on her journey: from a manipulative young woman doing what she had to in order to survive, to the honest, confident, and hard-working woman she is today.



And for those contemplating a career in sex work (in all it’s forms), Leilani offers invaluable advice: highlighting the crucial priorities of safety, client screening, and mental health preservation. She opens up about how she deals with internet trolls, her advice for young trans women getting into porn, and how she stays grounded. She and Holly also debate the industry's progression towards embracing diversity and celebrating trans performers: is it enough? 



Lelani’s story is not only a testament to her resilience and success, but also an honest and eye opening revelation of how sex work can turn from something that one does simply for survival, to a viable career path that brings a true sense of purpose to one’s life.
