A Brutally Honest Review Of Clueless As It Turns 30
Clueless is 30 (WE KNOW, frightening) and there was simply no way we weren’t going to mark the occasion. Today’s episode is a brutally honest (and very loving) review of the cult classic that defined a generation.
We’re diving into everything from how the film came to be, the chaotic casting process, and the real-life stories behind the most iconic scenes and one-liners.
We also unpack why the film hits so damn hard, reveal the scenes we still quote weekly, and discuss how we genuinely don’t remember life before seeing Clueless. Because honestly, do you know one person who hasn't watched it? So sit back, strap in and get ready for a 90s nostalgia ride.

A Brutally Honest Review Of Too Much On Netflix
You asked, we delivered. Ever since Lena Dunham’s new Netflix series Too Much dropped, Spillers have been sliding into our DMs dying to hear what Spill hosts Laura and Em think… and today, we’re going deep.
We unpack how the show draws from Lena’s real life, how it stacks up against Girls, and why it’s not really the rom-com it’s being marketed as. From the scenes we loved to the ones that completely wrecked us (yes, one of us cried), it’s a brutally honest review with zero filter.
Whether you loved it or are still unsure what you just watched, this is the post-watch debrief you didn’t know you needed.

A Brutally Honest Review Of Call Her Daddy's Alex Cooper
Call Her Alex has landed on Disney+, offering a glossy, tightly curated look at the rise of podcast juggernaut Alex Cooper, but just how honest is the series really?
In this Brutally Honest Review, we dive into how Alex's role in shaping the narrative we get to see as viewers. We also unpack her childhood and explore how she built one of the most influential media brands in the world, along with the unexpected role her husband plays in the empire.
Plus, we get into the moments that felt raw and revealing… and the ones that felt like they were left on the cutting room floor. Let’s just say, there’s a lot going on beneath the surface of Call Her Alex, and we get into it all.
Read the substack we explore about the lack of diversity among Call Her Daddy guests here. (https://oksohearmeout.substack.com/p/alex-cooper-please-interview-one?r=kym70&utm_medium=ios&triedRedirect=true)
