Contemporary Costumes: Josie and the Pussycats (with Brandon Streussnig)

Critic and culture writer Brandon Streussnig glams up the pod with his pick Du Jour for the Contemporary Costumes program, 2001's "teen comedy" cult classic Josie and the Pussycats. Before he, Joshua, and Katharine break down all the fashions, all the pr🎯duct pl🎯cement, and all the Parker Posey, Andrew stops by with Now Showing reviews of Cuckoo and Handling the Undead. Finally, there's just One More Thing with Female Prisoner Scorpion, Peter Greenaway, and the Olympics for cinephiles! Next up is Andrew's fashion-frenzy pick, Sion Sono's Why Don't You Play in Hell? Until then, please share, subscribe, and review!
