Girls Will Be Girls follows 16 year-old Mira as she first discovers sexual desire while attending a strict boarding school in the Himalayas, but her coming-of-age is disrupted by her mother who never got to come of age herself. Director/writer Shuchi Talati shares how she was delicately able to portray teenage sexuality, why certain crew members had a lot of tips for a certain stuffed animal scene, and their emotional experience screening the film in India for the first time.

Hot damn, this is a fun one! Our friends at the Standard Deviant Brewing Co invited us to record on location at their 7th annual chili cook off, and as regular patrons, we can say without a doubt it’s one of the most fun events of the year. You’ll meet all ten of the competing teams, learn about their secret recipes, and the inspiration behind their costumes (true to SF, we saw everything from ass cheeks to #FreeLuigi).

Plus Erin and Ange catch you up on their January shenanigans, including laughing their assess off at multiple SF Sketchfest shows, closing out a karaoke bar to Sinead O’Connor on a Monday night, and recovering from a hysterectomy (#MiddleAgedWomen). Be sure to guess who you think will win, because we also bring you the exciting conclusion to the chili cook off, including some unique awards that you won’t want to miss. Honestly, this episode encapsulates why we still love San Francisco. Cheers!

Welcome to our third and final episode for Sundance 2025, featuring two very timely feature length documentaries.

Third Act is a documentary that follows the life of Asian American artist and activist Robert A. Nakamura (aka the godfather of Asian American media), while grappling with his recent Parkinson's diagnosis. We were joined by filmmaker (and Robert's son) Tadashi Nakamura and one of the subjects of the film/his mother, Karen Ishizuka, to discuss making this film as a family, the universal nature of grief and loss, and Tad's son Prince's potential run for president in 2040 (jk but also not).

Heightened Scrutiny follows civil rights lawyer Chase Strangio's courtroom battle against anti-trans laws, while exposing the media's role in impacting public perception of transgender rights. Director Sam Feder shares his rush to get this film out as soon as possible, the importance of being able to give a voice to children in a conversation about them, and how this film is his way of showing the younger generations that we tried/are trying.
