The Devils - Banned for Nun Orgies (feat. a Bibliography)

from Trash & Treasures · host Trash & Treasures

For our final October outing into horny horror (and if this movie isn't horror, we don't know what is), we looked at beloved cult classic and infamous banned film The Devils, which has been unavailable in its complete, uncensored form more or less since its filming in 1971. Buckets of criticism, including multiple books, have been written on the film, so we tried to tackle a subject we hadn't seen discussed much: how the women of The Devils are treated, both the actors and the historical figures on whom the film is supposedly based. We read books for this one! CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of sexual assault, sexual harassment, misogyny, religious abuse, torture, ableism, medical abuse, body horror. Hell on Earth documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xeg1yIvalSo 1:00 To Set the Scene 4:30 A Possession at Loudon 12:00 Father Grandier, Shithead 17:00 Content Warnings 20:00 About Those Horny Nuns 26:00 And the Women Who Played Them 31:00 The Acceptable Masculinity 37:00 Legacy and Witchcraft 44:00 The Femur Say hi to the team on twitter: @dorothynotgale, @writervrai Our icon was designed by Allison Shabet.

Get down and boogie oogie oogie!” Explicit Detective Trapp Los Angeles Times | Wondery Anaheim investigator Julissa Trapp is not like other detectives. She’s the only woman on the homicide squad, and a skilled chameleon: undercover cop in vice stings, crime-scene commander, patient confidante of killers. A master interrogator, she invokes her personal experience – and deepest griefs – as a tool to elicit confessions. When a young woman’s body is found at a trash-sorting plant, Trapp learns the murder may be linked to the disappearance of three other women in nearby Santa Ana. Trapp embarks on a dark journey that brings her face to face with a man who takes “a little piece of her soul.” The series is about a singular detective on a relentless, sometimes lonely quest for answers.From the Los Angeles Times and Wondery, “Detective Trapp” is a new story from Christopher Goffard, the writer and host of “Dirty John.” Explicit Trash Delivery Trash Delivery Three half smart guys in a Detroit basement Explicit Your Favorite Band Sucks Your Favorite Band Sucks Become a Paid Subscriber: https://anchor.fm/yfbspod/subscribeLet’s review: there’s no good art and it’s a red flag for adults to have a favorite band. Naturally, most of you will disagree. That's fine. Just pretend it's a drinking game. An algorithm randomly assigns the band Mark & Tyler destroy in every episode. Start on one everybody knows is trash, like The Beatles. But soon you'll realize culture is a pyramid scheme and your favorite band is just the soundtrack to a fake vintage t-shirt.
