But, I'm a Cheerleader

from No More Late Fees · host No More Late Fees

Break out your pom-poms, because this week Jackie and Danielle are diving headfirst into the pastel fever dream that is But I’m a Cheerleader! Joined by returning guest Zoe, the trio tackles the satirical cult classic where Natasha Lyonne’s perky protagonist finds herself at a conversion therapy camp that looks like a Barbie Dreamhouse got hijacked by homophobia. With RuPaul serving Butch Realness, Melanie Lynskey feeling up Jan during wedding dress fittings it’s safe to say no one is straight — not even the plot.As the crew recounts shock therapy nightstands, trauma-induced make outs, and how a two-second boob graze earned this movie an NC-17 rating (the 2000s were wild), they manage to balance campy humor with real talk about sexuality, queer identity, and why it seems every straight man kisses like a vacuum cleaner on meth. Whether you’re a 5-day rental fan or ready to throw this one in the doghouse (literally), this episode is a cheer-filled, glitter-coated ode to being loud and proud.·Season 5 Episode 8·—No More Late Fees ⁠https://nomorelatefeespodcast.com⁠909-601-NMLF (6653)—Follow Us on Social:Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/nomorelatefees TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@nomorelatefees Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/nomorelatefeesYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@nomorelatefees Twitterhttps://x.com/NoMoreLateFees —CONQUERing⁠⁠myconquering.com⁠⁠10% Off Code: JACKIE10—ZoeInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/somelikeitpop/?hl=enTwitterhttps://x.com/somelikeitpopTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@somelikeitpop?lang=enBlueSkyhttps://bsky.app/profile/somelikeitpop.bsky.social—Zoe’s Previous EpisodesJoy Ridehttps://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/joy-ride Millennials meet Gen Z with Zoe of Some Like it Pophttps://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/millennials-meet-gen-z-with-zoe-of-some-like-it-pop Rolling Stone Top 500 with Zoehttps://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/rolling-stone-top-500-with-zoe
