We take you through some of our favourite films of the 2024 Hot Docs film festival. Enjoy!

Have you ever wondered what a fresh take on the American teen sex comedy genre could look like? Wondered how an artist like Lil Nas X has transcended genres and continued to defy expectations. This week's episode of High Low Brow is a roller-coaster ride of emotions, revelations, and hearty discussions.

Step into nostalgia with our podcast's latest episode! We review "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem," sharing why it's a crowd-pleaser. Then, explore River's binge-watching frenzy of "Vanderpump Rules" as they dissect characters and surprising twists.

Could the latest Barbie movie be one of the greatest cinematic surprises of the year? We certainly think so. We dive headfirst into a riveting discussion about how the Barbie film brilliantly disrupts the blonde doll's stereotypical image. From its clever marketing ploys to its unexpected political subtext to the film’s self-awareness, rip-roaring musical numbers, and a cast as colorful and vibrant as a Barbie Dreamhouse.

We're back for our third full-length episode of S2! For our very first Low Brow Takes on High Brow Culture takedown episode, Ama and Ameema have invited on former co-host and fellow podcaster from the show We Really Like Her, Danita Steinberg to discuss all things Oscars 2022.

Off the top, Ama & Danita live-react to an interview with Lourdes Leon before pivoting to a completely unplanned tangent about which child of a Real Housewife is likeliest to write a tell-all memoir. Then, writer & resident spooky bitch Mary Beth McAndrews joins Danita to chat about the merits of found footage films, their parallels to reality television, scary internet rabbit holes, and where the ever-evolving genre is headed next.
