Tim coaxes Jen into the pool for a Polish horror musical set in a dark alternate 80s Warsaw, The Lure!

Director Agnieska Smocyzynska also made The Silent Twins (2022) about June and Jennifer Gibbons. Jen gave a glib and half-accurate version of their whole deal, but this 90s-era BBC documentary features the real June Gibbons and tells it a little more accurately. It’s a story that has been mined over and over again elsewhere as “spooky” content. However, the real narrative is one about two intelligent young girls facing a pressure cooker of racism and ableism, acting out, and being medicalized, misdiagnosed, and punished instead of supported. In 2023 the BBC revisited the case via podcast, again with June Gibbons.

Listen to Lady Godiva’s Operation by the Velvet Underground. Listen to it seventeen times in a row, if you’re Jen.

It’s true, Benjamin Franklin did find farts extremely funny. “A Letter to a Royal Academy” (later published under the title Fart Proudly) is a whole essay about flatulence. You may find that you are entertained with the pleasantry of it and the ridicule it contains!
