Show Notes

Today I'm joined by Michael--or as you know him, @Mikelennial--to talk about the incredibly sweethearted 90s teen film, ANGUS. It's a movie that's been eclipsed by its soundtrack over the years, but it shouldn't be. And in this episode Michael and I talk about why. It's a movie about loving yourself for who you are, being comfortable with the person you are, and doing what makes you happy even if it's not the norm. All things that resonate pretty strongly in 2023. 

As for the soundtrack: we also discuss Weezer b-sides along with the rest of the soundtrack (which really is one of the best of the 90s), and debate whether or not J.A.R. is the best Green Day song.

Until recently, ANGUS was available on Tubi, but if you have a library card you can watch it for free on Hoopla here: https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/11749330
