276. Josie and the Pussycats with special guest Jessica Granger

"Du Jour means seat belts. Du Jour means crash positions!" We get to an early 00s cult classic in kitten ears, "Josie and the Pussycats", this week with our friend Jessica Granger. Critics didn't really know what to do with this razor-sharp satire of the music industry and consumerism when it came out back in 2001, but we're here to say this movie still holds up. We discuss all three of our Pussycats: Rachael Leigh Cook, Tara Reid, and Rosario Dawson, early aughts MTV and the stranglehold TRL had on the youth.  Not to mention the duo of villains played by the iconic Alan Cumming and Parker Posey, as well as its banger of a soundtrack with some major street cred behind some of the songs.  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Bluesky: @MTMUGPod.bsky.social Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram Peterlasagna
