Happy Yule, cinephile freaks! This holiday season we're celebrating the Winter Solstice in this very special episode starring wonton, willful and wonderful witches!

Self help goes lethally awry in Anna Biller's ingenious meta-Technicolor treasure THE LOVE WITCH (2016). Sexploitation is style over substance in the VIRGIN WITCH (1972). Cinematic art finds a new masterstroke in the haunting, enigmatic (and f**king awesome) folk horror fable HAGAZUSSA (2017).

Trigger Warning: Please be advised this episode includes explicit discussion of sexual abuse and assault. This is a really tough one so tune out and take care if you need to <3

For the penultimate episode of 2024, we're kicking off our mini director retrospective series. Our first entry delves into modern cinema's ultimate Master of Macabre, David Lynch.

Baby talk reaches a new level of unacceptable foreplay in BLUE VELVET (1986). Nicolas Cage and Laura Dern burn hot in WILD AT HEART (1990). Naomi Watts has the ultimate career breakout role in the dreamlike hate letter to Hollywood, MULHOLLAND DRIVE (2001).

SITC is back with a new installment of Uncut and Unrated - extended "director's cuts" of some of our favorite episodes.

FRATBOY F**KERY, our episode discussing a trio of "boys will be boys" blockbusters, returns to manspread its dick tentacles all over the airwaves. The original cut of this episode was released in April 2024 but the collective ethos of these misogynistic trash fires is now distinctly timely.

Tune in for previously unreleased deep cuts about Doug Kenney and the birth of The National Lampoon, another cringeworthy tale about Torie's adolescent pervy playacting, and much more.

Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open for all-new episodes including the first installment of our Director Retrospective series and our upcumming holiday special!

Trigger warning: this episode discusses themes of sexual and verbal assault, rape, and body shaming.

Welcome to the black hole of misogyny where "boys will be boys" and fratboy mentality reigned supreme to brainwash multiple generations.

Torie struggles to kill her darlings in the National Lampoon classic ANIMAL HOUSE (1978). Kim Cattrall is the only saving grace in the postulating butt boil that is PORKY'S (1981). Witness the birth of virtual assault and revenge porn in the generation-defining Y2K flick, AMERICAN PIE (1999).
