Abolish the olympics & the brilliance of Miranda July's 'Kajillionaire' (2020)

On this week's installment of Sunny and Renaissance's regularly scheduled three part podcast of a submitted hot take, joint media consumption, and personalized recommendations for each other, your favorite lesbian communists exhibit their bimboism in regards to professional sports but ultimately comes to the conclusion that like capitalism, they must be abolished! Thank you to @scissorclown on Twitter for this scathing hot take. Then we rant and scream and cry and yell and stomp over the absolute wildness that is the 2020 indie drama Kajillionaire directed by Miranda July, whom we definitely think is a genius. This unconventional heist movie about family, money, survival, love, intimacy, emotional neglect, queerness and mentally ill lesbians with mommy issues....! Yeah we are a bit blown away. Finally, Sunny recommends the novel Pizza Girl by Jean Kyoung-Frazier in how it has the same weirdly hyper specific scenario x brilliant queer energy of Kajillionaire, and Renaissance recommends the campy 2004 movie D.E.B.S. directed by Angela Robinson (the director of Renaissance's favorite movie, Professor Marsten and the Wonder Woman).Find us on Twitter @thelavenderpod and email us your hot take(s) to get featured on future episodes [email protected]!
