About this listen

 Think A/V club, but with more yapping, hotter takes, and zero regard for the Oscars. Hosted by four of Betches’ resident film experts (with plenty of opinions and just enough film knowledge to be dangerous), each genre-themed episode dives into a spirited showdown over the truly important cinematic questions—like who’s the throbbiest heartthrob, which sidekick earns the “Judy Greer Award for Best Best Friend,” and which film takes home the top honor: “Best Picture,” AKA the one we just couldn’t stop laughing about.

  • Is ‘Love Actually’ Hugh Grant’s Douchiest Role?

    Is ‘Love Actually’ Hugh Grant’s Douchiest Role?
    Dec 1 2025
    In this festive episode of Betches Video Club, the Scream Queens sit down to unwrap one of the most iconic holiday movies of all time, ‘Love Actually.’ From Hugh Grant’s dance routine to Emma Thompson’s devastating Joni Mitchell moment, the crew breaks down every questionable power dynamic and messy detail that doesn’t stop anyone from rewatching every 👏single 👏year. Even though the Screen Queens have deep nostalgia for this movie (with a gay awakening or two along the way) the constant body-shaming jokes get a little exhausting, but it was 2003. They unpack behind-the-scenes details like Olivia Olson having to sing “worse” because she was too good and the film’s infamous posterboard scene with Keira Knightley’s hat allegedly hiding a giant zit. The Screen Queens share their own first “I love you” stories and debate whether the holiday season is the best or cruelest time to break up with someone. Finally, the crew answers the ultimate question: Is ‘Love Actually’ messy or perfect because it’s so messy? Join us next week as we pre-game the holidays with the much anticipated ‘Wicked: For Good’!

  • Is ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ A Spiritual Journey or a Midlife Crisis? ft. Paul Mescal & Jessie Buckley Exclusive

    Is ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ A Spiritual Journey or a Midlife Crisis? ft. Paul Mescal & Jessie Buckley Exclusive
    Nov 24 2025
    Stick around for exclusive interview with Paul Mescal & Jessie Buckley! On this week’s episode of Betches Video Club, Maddie kicks things off with a little interpersonal travel drama (what’s a vacation without some turbulence, right?) before the Screen Queens dive into the Julia Roberts classic ‘Eat Pray Love’. Between bites of hot pasta and even hotter men, the hosts break down the eternal debate: is this a movie about self-discovery… or self-importance? Despite vividly remembering a threesome (checks notes) that never actually happened, the crew agrees on one universal truth: this film is really about eating without abandon and buying the jeans to match your lifestyle—not the other way around. Plus, Maddie brings us along as she chats with Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal about their new masterpiece ‘Hamnet’—a film that might genuinely deserve an Oscar for “Best Hawk Handling.” Join us next week as we officially enter the holiday era with everyone’s favorite… or least favorite… ensemble Christmas movie.

  • All The Biblical References You Missed In ‘The Menu’

    All The Biblical References You Missed In ‘The Menu’
    Nov 17 2025
    “Yes, Chef!” This week, the Screen Queens serve up ‘The Menu’—the ultimate “psycho thriller” satire blending food, ego, and cultish fine dining. The crew shares their own restaurant trauma while debating whether fine dining is high art or just overpriced torture.Bryan stuns everyone with his jaw-dropping answer to how much he’d pay for the “perfect meal,” and the crew explains why everyone should be required to work in the service industry at least once. Then, they take a behind-the-scenes look at the director’s surprising improv style and reveal what made the set unexpectedly fun rather than terrifying. Along the way, they uncover hidden biblical references you probably missed and explain why the entire film radiates pure cult energy. Next week we are heading to Italy to ‘Eat, Pray, Love,’ - but mostly just two out of three. 00:00 Intro 01:20 Our Restaurant Trauma! 07:18 On Set of ‘The Menu’ 10:31 Hidden Biblical References 12:38 Should They Adapt ‘The Menu’ for The Stage? 14:14 Fine Dining Is Overrated! 17:04 How Much Would You Pay for A Perfect Meal? 22:21 Classic Cult Behavior 23:57 Our Theories! #TheMenuMovie #PsychoThrillerMovies #MovieClubPodcast #ScreenQueensReview #FineDiningMovies #CultEnergyFilm #BehindTheScenesMovie #ImprovDirectingStyle #HiddenBiblicalReferences #MovieDiscussionPodcast #PerfectMealDebate #ServiceIndustryLessons #FilmAnalysis Learn more about your ad choices.
