Nostalgia Trap - Episode 240: They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To w/ KJ Shepherd (PREVIEW)
Manage episode 280328671 series 53771
In a world of infinite #content, why do we find ourselves watching the same movies and TV shows again and again? KJ Shepherd joins us for a conversation about the particular qualities that draw us to compulsively re-watch certain pieces of media, especially from when we were young. Our conversation focuses on the 1997 film Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, a "dumb" comedy that functions as a powerful nostalgia trap for KJ and a reflection of a very specific type of 90s Hollywood production. We talk about Romy and Michele's unique charm, its undeniable queerness, the post-Romy career paths of Mira Sorvino and Lisa Kudrow, and the singular social, cultural, and economic circumstances from which the "dumb 90s comedy" emerged.
