Jenna and Veronica defy the haters and sign up for a weekly dose of The Substance (2024) – a film about the body horrors of being female in society. Or should we say in Society (1989), ‘cause this is a pretty bloody batshit movie with quite a bit of overlap to the Yuzna cult favorite. Listen as they pick apart the strengths and weaknesses of the movie, beauty expectations and themselves – there are some hot skincare tips here!

A new episode of Notes From the Back Row will be released every other week. If you have a new movie premiering, drop us a line – we might be interested in setting something up with you too!

Best New (or new-ish) Movie

Best New to Us Movie

Worst New to Us Movie

Biggest Surprise (New or Old)

Plus, was 2023 a great year for Comedies? Were the horror films of 2023 garbage?? Was the pizza in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles bussin', no cap??? Find out all this and more in our year-end spectacular.

Dan and Jenna are back with another episode of their wheel-spinning, decade spanning movie discussion series! In this episode, they spun the wheel and landed on Oscar Winners and picked one Best Picture winner and one Best Foreign Picture winner to discuss.

Jenna picked Sundays and Cybele (1962, Serge Bourguignon), a black-and-white drama about the unlikely and potentially dangerous relationship between an emotionally fragile veteran and a young orphan.

Dan picked Ordinary People (1980, Robert Redford), a sensitively portrayed drama about a family dealing with trauma, grief, mental health, decaying relationships, therapy, suicide and more. Fun!
