Like the Criterion Collection but more gay and more fun, Aughtsterion chronicles and canonizes the horror films released around the turn of the new millennium.
Sam and Jordan return to the Aughtsterion airwaves to discuss their favorite bratty robot teen, the titular M3gan of M3GAN 2.0.

Thanksgiving (2023)
It's a very Aughtsterion holiday, as the fifth season of the pod debuts with Eli Roth's latest (and possibly best??) effort: Thanksgiving. Based on the trailer for a fake movie of the same name that rolled in between Grindhouse movies back in 2007, this Thanksgiving, as some anonymous internet commenter described it, like if someone made a 2000s remake of the non-existent 1970s movie the original trailer depicted. In other words, it's basically fantastic. Jordan is boosting it as her favorite Roth of all time, while Sam sees it as a close contender with his top choice, Hostel 2, but no matter where that discussion ends up, it means the audience wins. Roth has a way with depicting horrible people doing horrible things. And while his love of gore has never abated since the torture tourism era, his level of misogynist sleaze thankfully has. (At least... for now!) So, join your co-hosts to celebrate a most rare scary movie gem — the Turkey Day slasher — as well as the maturation of Rick Hoffman on screen, the presence of Addison Rae, and yes, even a musical about Jesus. It will all make sense once you listen, promise!

Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds (2006)
As a special nod to the waning hours of PRIDE month, Jordan and Sam have made the time for a very special episode. It's not horror, but it is the second entry in a softcore comedy franchise called Eating Out, and this time you're getting the Sloppy Seconds. From 2006, this sequel reaches for the stars and becomes one of the — now keep an open mind — great ensemble comedies of the 2000s?! Maybe so! In this episodes, your co hosts talk about the subversive importance of boys-in-briefs movies of the aughts, what Sloppy Seconds gets right that even movies of the 2020s don't, and why different does in fact rock. This one's for the bisexuals!
