Hazel & Katniss & Harry & Starr

To celebrate the great Kirsten Dunst/Gabrielle Union showdown of 2000, Joe makes Brenna watch Bring It On ! While some of the racial politics and its approach to queerness haven't aged particularly well, we appreciate the white girls coming in second, a competitive approach to female rivalry and a bounty of sassy dialogue.Faring less well is director Laura Terruso and writer Alison Peck's Work It (2020) which exists solely as a vehicle for Sabrina Carpenter, whom Joe describes as a charisma vacuum. Thankfully we have the comedically styling of Liza Koshy's Jas and the cuteness of PS I Still Love You's Jordan Fischer to ease over the many, MANY bumpy parts.Homework:Friend of the show Miriam recommends f/f YA books:Queer horror: Wilder Girls by Rory Power, Sawkill Girls by Claire Legrand, and The Devouring Gray by Christine Lynn HermanJuliet Takes A Breath by Gabby RiveraWe are Okay by Nina LaCourBrenna catches us up on: Yes, No, Maybe So by Becky Albertalli and Alisha SayeedInternment by Samira AhmedLove, Cree
