Phil and Emily are joined by comedian Carson Olshansky for Mimi Leder's Pay It Forward (2000). Haley Joel Osment plays a seventh-grader who answers a social-studies assignment think of a way to change the world by inventing a simple chain reaction: do a big favor for three people, and ask each of them to "pay it forward." Kevin Spacey and Helen Hunt orbit as the scarred teacher and the struggling single mom the plan quietly sets out to fix.


The three get into how a movie this earnest slowly curdles into something else, the infamous ending and whether it earns a single second of it, Spacey and Hunt doing an enormous amount of Very Serious Acting, and what it's like to revisit a turn-of-the-millennium prestige weepie with fresh, unsentimental eyes. Affectionate and merciless in roughly equal measure.

104: Pay It Forward with Carson Olshansly

MyCookieJar and Cookie Daddy have been married for nearly 12 years, and they're finally spilling everything: including the story behind her rare anatomy (a birth defect she now proudly calls "the most unique pussy in the industry") and exactly how she has to walk new co-stars through it before every girl/girl scene.

We get into her demisexuality and what actually turns her on, the difference between a "vixen" dynamic and a cuck dynamic (spoiler: she's holding all the power), and how a girthy, well-endowed husband and a wife with no cervix make for a very compatible pairing. Plus: the AI they built to run their studio, why they walked away from OnlyFans to build their own site, and how two workaholic tech nerds turned a rave hookup into an empire.

This one's unfiltered in every sense.

Vixen, Not Cuck: Inside This Couple’s Wild Sexual Dynamic 

Phil and Emily are joined by writer Jude Ellison Doyle to open up Richard Kelly's The Box (2009). Cameron Diaz and James Marsden play a cash-strapped 1976 couple handed a simple, horrible deal by a scarred stranger (Frank Langella): press the button on the box, collect a million dollars, and somebody you don't know dies. What starts as a Twilight Zone morality test (via Richard Matheson's "Button, Button") spirals into NASA, Mars, and a very literary sense of damnation.


The three dig into Kelly's whole deranged sensibility after Donnie Darko and Southland Tales, whether he's fully in on his own material, how he writes women, and why a studio thriller this strange even got made. There's a real case here for reading The Box as a big, glossy panic attack about being broke in America. Heady, funny, and a little unhinged same as the movie.

103: The Box with Jude Ellison Doyle

Eva Angelina shot over 1,000 scenes before walking away from the adult industry in 2016, and then did something nobody expected. She became a firefighter and paramedic, fighting against the stigma of her previous career to start anew. Now, years later, she's stepping back in front of the camera with Vixen and eyeing a move to Spiegler.

She talks about getting scouted at 18 off a classified ad that dared her to "shock and awe" her parents, shooting on VHS before the internet could even stream video, walking away from adult at the top of her game to save actual lives and why she couldn't stay away from the camera forever.

Uncensored, unfiltered, and absolutely unhinged in the best way. This is Holly Randall Unfiltered.

From Adult Film Star to Firefighter and Back Again: Eva Angelina Tells All

Phil and Emily are joined by Mitchell Beaupre, editor and podcast host at Letterboxd, to dig into Kelly Reichardt's Wendy and Lucy (2008). Michelle Williams stars as a woman driving to Alaska for work who gets stranded in a small Oregon town when her car dies and she loses her dog, and the film turns that small catastrophe into one of the quietest, most devastating portraits of American poverty the 2000s gave us.


The three of them get into why Reichardt is so good at trapping her characters, and us, in situations that tighten without anyone noticing, how the movie looks at the unhoused with a clear eye instead of pity, and where it lands in the show's Reichardt run. There's a detour into Richard Kelly and The Box, a bit on how Williams does more with a single look than most actors manage with a monologue, and Mitchell's case for why this one stays with you long after the credits.

102: “Wendy & Lucy” with Mitchell Beaupre

Summer Robert grew 11 bra sizes in a year thanks to a rare condition called macromastia and she's turned it into a full-blown career, a massive OnlyFans following, and the title of biggest boobs in the UK.

This episode gets into all of it: refusing a reduction, the obsessed fan she accidentally brought home, getting robbed in Brisbane by guys who used her stolen card to buy Andrew Tate courses (yes, really), and her brutally honest breakdown of American men vs. European men in bed. (Americans, you might want to take notes.)

The Rare Condition That Gave Her “The Biggest Boobs in the UK”

Ivy Ireland had never tried anal before her first ever scene on camera. Not only did she take it like a pro, she found that she loved it, and after a multi-orgasmic scene Ivy was already asking for a double penetration. That was her first week in the industry.

Now two and a half years later she is performing for the biggest names in the business, co-directing full feature films, and about to drop a DAP (double anal penetration) she shot earlier this year with Johnny Darkko. She explains why this scene is one of the most physically and creatively demanding things she has ever done, and why it was all worth it.

Plus, the unbelievable story of Ivy's devout Christian friend strapping on a dildo in her pants just to fake a blowjob angle for OnlyFans, why anal is easier on her body than vaginal, and how she and Vince Carter built a creative partnership that goes way past just performing together.

She is funny, completely unfiltered, and knows exactly who she is. Watch the whole thing.

Ivy Ireland Never Did Anal in her Life, Until she Stepped on a Porn Set

Phil and Emily are joined by critic and editor Isaac Feldberg to continue their Richard Kelly Reichardt mini-series with Kelly Reichardt's quiet breakthrough, Old Joy (2006). Isaac edits at Letterboxd Journal and writes for RogerEbert.com and Fangoria, and as a former Eagle Scout, he might be the perfect guide to a movie about two guys going camping.


Made for roughly $30,000 and shot in the forests east of Portland, Old Joy follows old friends Kurt (Will Oldham) and Mark (Daniel London) on a weekend trip to a hot spring deep in the Cascades. Almost nothing happens, and somehow everything does. It became Reichardt's calling card, earned rapturous reviews including four stars from Roger Ebert, and announced one of American cinema's most quietly essential filmmakers.


The gang gets into why Reichardt remains a beloved secret, the kind of filmmaker fans swear will one day get a Criterion box and a wave of "how did we not know about this?" They dig into the ache underneath the film's radical simplicity, the suspense of a friendship that can't quite say what it means, the tender and unspoken queerness running through it, and why these two men sound less like a Richard Linklater hangout and more like real life. Plus Lucy the dog, "the John Cazale of canine performers," the perfect Old Joy double feature, and the image of a slug on a mossy boulder that Ebert never forgot.


Why do we remember the small moments more than the big ones? Old Joy has a few answers. Come sit with it.

100: Old Joy with Isaac Feldberg

Phil and Emily are joined by journalist and author Josephine Riesman to continue their Richard Kelly Reichardt mini-series with the magnificent disaster that is Southland Tales (2006). And there is no better guest for it: Josie wrote the definitive deep-dive on this movie and once spent three hours walking Venice Beach interviewing Richard Kelly himself.

Set in an alternate 2008 where nuclear attacks on Texas have tipped America into a surveillance-state apocalypse, Southland Tales unleashes Dwayne Johnson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Justin Timberlake, and a cast of SNL alumni across a sprawling, end-of-days Los Angeles on the Fourth of July. It premiered at Cannes as an unfinished cut on DVD, got booed into oblivion, made a legendary $374,000 against a $17 million budget, and then quietly became the cult object that fans swear is more true than the reality we actually got.

The gang digs into why a movie this incoherent is also this irresistible. Emily makes her case that it is what you would get if Philip K. Dick novelized Robert Altman's Nashville, while Phil counters with "Magnolia with a head injury." Josie reveals what Kelly told her about that surreal Justin Timberlake lip-sync to The Killers, the tie-in graphic novels, the Cannes catastrophe, and why he has a reason for every baffling choice, even the ones that never made the final cut. Plus its eerie kinship with Children of Men and The Handmaid's Tale, and the thin line between satire and prophecy.

Misunderstood masterpiece or beautiful trainwreck? On America's 250th birthday, it might be the only movie that fits. This is the way the world ends.

100: Southland Tales with Josie Riesman

She grew up Mormon, left the church at 19, put herself through college working at a law firm, earned a degree in mathematics, and built an OnlyFans career that landed her in the top 0.01% of the platform. Kit Barrus known as Kit the Beefcake is not the girl the industry expected, and she's completely unbothered by that.

In this episode, Holly and Kit get into everything: what it was really like leaving the church, how she made $10K her first month with just 30K TikTok followers, and how she used a "stunt dick" from her college sailing team to level up her content. They also go deep on predatory OnlyFans agencies the high-pressure signing tactics, the 50% cuts, the likeness clauses, and why most of those contracts don't actually hold up in court.

Plus: Kit breaks down what it actually takes to make real money on OnlyFans (hint: it's a year of free content before you ask for a dollar), Hollywood's complicated relationship with the industry, and the story of a $3,000 AUD male escort in Australia who side-fingered his way to disappointment.
