Crossroads
Episode 77
Thursday, 7 August, 2025

Would it even be a season of TFTRR without super best friend of the show Liz stopping by? Following up on our deep dive into millennial pop divas, we detour into pop star movie vehicle town on the weirdly slow cross-country road trip that is Crossroads. Were critics and audiences way too unfair to this movie or… was it actually kind of bad and we just feel guilty for everything else we put Britney through? Is it possible to include all this horrific subject matter in a movie targeted at tweens? Can we please have a little less exposition and more actual acting, or however that Elvis song goes? And maybe spare some Kim Cattrall? Plus, Bree’s nephew is born in the middle of the podcast. No, really.
