"I have to tell you a secret that will see you through all the trials that life can offer. Have courage and be kind."
It's the fourth Cinderella story covered on This Ends at Prom, and the one with the most heart. The Wives Colangelo are joined by comedian Fifi Dosch to talk about why CINDERELLA (2015) is an essential watch during times of turmoil, explore the film's unintentional neurodivergent and trans themes, gush about a Prince worthy of our Ella, and praise the power of sentimental cinema.

"If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why oh why can't I?"
With the premiere of WICKED just days away, The Wives Colangelo are going back 85 years to discuss arguably the most-watched film in history, and one that happens to also be a teen girl movie — The Wizard of Oz. A film that has been analyzed for decades, This Ends at Prom is focusing on Dorothy's journey into a technicolor world of escapism, recognizing the parallels between Dorothy Gale and Judy Garland's bleak coming-of-age experiences, and losing it over the Scarecrow's weapon of choice. Surrender Dorothy! We're off to see the wizard!

"Once, there was this day... this one day when... everyone realized they needed each other."
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, so The Wives Colangelo are discussing a rare festive film. Most people remember PIECES OF APRIL for the cover art of an alternative Katie Holmes with choppy bangs and box-dyed red hair, but few remember the micro-budget charm of a story about an estranged young woman attempting to host what might be the last holiday she ever has with her family before her mother passes from cancer. With an Oscar-nominated performance from Patricia Clarkson and a message of how family can go beyond your blood relatives, let PIECES OF APRIL be the warm hug you need ahead of what may be a tumultuous holiday season with your own family.
BONUS: Poppa Colangelo stops by to tell a little family story! (Stay for the end of episode button, trust us.)

"You can't let Dick run your life!"
We were hoping the election would turn out much different than it did, but this isn't the first time America has dealt with a crook for a president, and statistically speaking, won't be the last. To distract us from the impending horrors, we're celebrating the 25th anniversary of the teen-girls-take-down-the-president classic, DICK. Full disclosure, this episode is probably going to get BURIED by algorithms based on the film's name so if you want to do us a solid and share this week's episode with a friend, we'll make you some Hello Dolly cookies! (We won't, that'd be too dangerous to ship).
We love you. Thank you for listening. Let's unfuck the world together.

"So many pretty parts and no pretty wholes."
Happy Halloween, Prom Party! The Wives Colangelo are closing out the most wonderful time of the year by diving into Lucky McKee's indie horror masterpiece, May. Grab your scissors and pile of doll parts because topics this week include the dreaded "things would be different if the roles were reversed" conversation, trying to determine what the inverse of pansexuality is, gushing about Angela Bettis, Anna Faris, Jeremy Sisto, and James Duval, and attempting to tackle the loneliness epidemic.

"Maybe demons aren’t the most trustworthy beings to make a deal with?"
Spooky season continues on with the best stop-motion movie from Henry Selick to watch during Halloween, and we're not talking about the one with Jack Skellington. Join The Wives Colangelo for the gateway horror movie with the best ska and punk soundtrack imaginable, WENDELL & WILD. Discussions this week include navigating thoughts of mortality, introducing children to the concept of the school-to-prison pipeline, and what it means to fight your inner demons.

"Well, the idea that there was any control to begin with is a f*cking illusion. There's only one thing in the universe we have even the tiniest bit of control over -- ourselves."
Y'all wanna hear an episode about independent filmmaking and telling passionate stories? In a special spooky season treat, The Wives Colangelo are joined by director Clare Cooney to talk about her latest feature film, the queer supernatural high school slasher, DEPARTING SENIORS. Together the trio discuss the horror movies that inspired the picture, the evolution of the "final girl," and what it was like to work with Yani "Paolo Valisari in the Lizzie McGuire Movie" Gellman after years of acting in horror movies.
Check out DEPARTING SENIORS now on Tubi TV or on VOD.

"Never let anyone pick on you. Otherwise, you'll carry it with you the rest of your life."
10 years ago, Adam Wingard, Simon Barrett, Dan Stevens, and Maika Monroe joined forces to make one of the best indie action thrillers set on Halloween, THE GUEST. This is the movie that introduced genre fans to Dan Stevens and proved that Wingard and Barrett could do more than just horror. A decade later, The Wives Colangelo are here to discuss why the film makes for a perfect Halloween watch, and why more people need to listen to 20-year-old girls when they think the vibes are off about a handsome man!

"Whatever you do... don't fall asleep."
A Nightmare on Elm Street is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, so The Wives Colangelo are joined by guests Julia Marchese and Teri Gamble of The Horror Movie Survival Guide podcast to talk about the slasher greatness of Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger, why practical effects will always reign supreme, and why Heather Langenkamp's Nancy Thompson is the ultimate final girl. We're pretending palm trees exist in Ohio, remembering a time when Johnny Depp was someone worth pining, and paying our respects to teen horror maestro, the late, great Wes Craven.

"We didn’t know the Wolfwalkers were real. That you were people."
Inside you, there are two wolves... and they're both gay and looking for family and community who love you unconditionally. This week The Wives Colangelo are joined by film critic Leigh Monson to discuss one of the most criminally underseen coming-of-age animated films of the last decade, the incredible WOLFWALKERS from Cartoon Saloon. Together the trio discusses the film's queer metaphors, gush about beautiful storybook animation, and discuss whether or not the film was snubbed at the Oscars.

"Crying helps me slow down and obsess over the weight of life's problems."
This Ends at Prom's month of animation continues with a Pixar film about an 11-year-old girl that made grown adults sob to the point of dry heaving. It's the movie where even feelings have feelings, so The Wives Colangelo are gonna have a whole lot of them with INSIDE OUT. Let's discuss which parts make BJ and Harmony cry, explain why all emotions are important emotions, and celebrate the fact Richard Kind finally makes an appearance on the show!

"Kids. Little kids. They grow up believing that they can be a hero if they drive a sword into the heart of anything different. And I'm the monster?"
To help raise awareness of the fight of The Animation Guild's quest for a better contract, The Wives Colangelo are kicking off a month of celebrating recently released animated coming-of-age films and starting with NIMONA. Let's talk about queerness, introducing heavy themes to children, not shying away from issues of mental health, and BJ breaks her record for the time it takes to start crying in an episode! IT'S TIME TO BREAK STUFF, LET'S GET METAL!

"We are not one-dimensional. We are smart and fun!"
This Ends at Prom turns four this week, which means we're finally seniors! To celebrate, we're honoring five years of BOOKSMART, one of the best teen girl movies of the 21st century and a perfect time capsule of millennial nostalgia and liberal politics. BJ admits that she's a lot more like Beanie Feldstein's Molly than she'd ever care to admit, Harmony gushes over how much she loves Skyler Gisondo and Bille Lourd, and together they try to figure out why BOOKSMART continues to get outshined by LADY BIRD.
THANK YOU FOR AN INCREDIBLE FOUR YEARS, PROM PARTY! WE LOVE YOU!

"We knew the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love, and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them."
Sofia Coppola's directorial debut delivered the world a new look at the Lisbon Sisters, undeniably feminine atmospheric filmmaking, an examination of the way men examine women, and generations of women responded by romanticizing their pain and aestheticizing turmoil as a means of processing negative emotions. This week, the Wives Colangelo are joined by a dear friend of the show, Miranda Zickler, to discuss why THE VIRGIN SUICIDES is a seminal film and one of the most important films in the teen girl canon.

"You really need to stop shoving your psychotic idea of '50s womanhood down my throat."
15 years ago, Drew Barrymore and Elliot Page joined forces to deliver a fresh new take on the teenage girl's coming-of-age experience with WHIP IT. Not only did the film help introduce roller derby to the masses, but it proved there's more to girlhood than beauty pageants and pleasing Marcia Gay Harden. Pick out your derby name and get ready to jam, because The Wives Colangelo are ready to run the rink.

"This is not a big deal. They're teenage girls. They have sex. Do you, like, freak out when you see a bee f*cking a flower?"
Finally, a movie that actually ends at prom! This week the Wives Colangelo are discussing Kay Cannon's criminally underrated parent-child prom night comedy, BLOCKERS. Let us discuss Dad-mode John Cena, honor yet another Kathryn Newton performance, talk about parents needing to learn to let go of their kids, and wonder if this was the the death knell of studio-distributed sex comedies.

"Do I look like I own tights?"
This week the Wives Colangelo are diving back into the world of dance movies and finally tackling STEP UP. Joining your hosts is film critic and podcaster William Bibbiani, who makes a strong argument as to why the STEP UP franchise is the best film franchise out there. Let's talk about the uncomfortable era of white boys appropriating hip-hop culture, lay the groundwork for eventual discussions on the sequels, and figure out why STEP UP became the winner of the dance movie wars of the 2000s.

"But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all."
195 episodes ago, The Wives Colangelo covered 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU, the movie that inspired the podcast's existence in the first place. Harmony came down HARD on the film and BJ had an existential crisis about it. But that was before Harmony became well-versed in the ways of teen girl movies, so in honor of the show's 200th episode and the 25th anniversary of the film, it's time the movie is given a closer look. Has Harmony's feelings about Kat Stratford and Patrick Verona changed? Can BJ get through the episode without crying? (Spoiler: NO) Listen in and find out!

“I’ll show you how valuable Elle Woods can be.”
The Wives Colangelo have held off on covering LEGALLY BLONDE until there was a guest wanting to talk about the film that was deserving of Ms. Elle Woods and culture critic Bobbi Miller is here to join This Ends at Prom in finally giving our favorite Cosmo girl/lawyer her due. This week the show discusses the anti-femme hate of the 2000s, why Jennifer Coolidge is a national treasure, and why doing something out of spite is sometimes the best way to learn about yourself.

"I'm no dame!"
65 years ago, a blonde small fry played by Sandra Dee picked up a surf board, showed the boys at the beach what she was made of, and completely changed the world. No, really. In honor of the anniversary of the teen beach movie that started it all, GIDGET, The Wives Colangelo are diving in deep and discussing the groundbreaking source material, how a teenage girl is responsible for popularizing surfing in the continental United States, and look at how unintentionally gay this movie is and has always been.
