Don’t feed the plants! This week, Peaches and Michael are taking an interest in bloodthirsty botany as they celebrate 1986’s LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS! In addition to discussing the film’s show-stopping musical numbers and monstrous alternate ending, our hosts delve into why this story of a killer plant is some of cult cinema’s finest social commentary. Joining the conversation is the legendary Bob the Drag Queen, who shares memories of a lifetime of LITTLE SHOP love, as well as thoughts on why the story is a perfect Shakespearean allegory. Then, fandom superstar Clarke Wolfe stops by to talk about the delicate balance of horror and comedy, and why there’s a little Oz in Audrey 2’s story. From Ellen Greene to muthas that are mean & green, this episode has it all! Go!
