Josie and the Pussycats with Phil Iscove

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Phil Iscove (Podcast Like It's 1992) for this 2001 underrated masterpiece, packed with quality pop songs, aggressively Y2K outfits, and the best use of product placement...ever? We dig into directors Deborah Kaplan & Harry Elfont's careers, bisexual icon Alan Cumming, and why this is a film for the girls, gay and theys (and therefore a box office flop, tragically...).

Four-quadrant films are movies designed to appeal to the biggest, widest audience possible. In the process, they can often leave out a lot of LGBTQ+ representation – but end up loaded with subtext. In The Queer Quadrant, hosts Brooke Solomon and Jordan Gustafson examine cinema in all its cultural contexts, and explore why your favorite four-quadrant blockbuster is maybe…not as straight as you think it is.
