Paid in Puke Podcast S8E1: Don’t Worry Darling


On our Series 8 opener, we’re Paid in Pugh’k! It’s a drama-o-rama, spoiler-filler Don’t Worry Darling Extravaganzah! If you’ve been living under a Hollywood-free rock, that’s Olivia Wilde’s genre hopper staring Florence PughGemma ChanKiki LayneKate Berlant, and Wilde herself. The script was heavily re-worked by Wilde’s Booksmart scribe, Katie Silberman

What IS DWD? Horror? Sci-Fi? A Thriller made by someone who doesn’t understand the genre? We find Hot Probs galore, but also gush over the lewks, Pugh’s star power, and Kate Berlant’s ability to find the funniest possible delivery in every line. 

If you want details, we have them, complete with a timeline and the scoop on the Kiki Layne cut. (RELEASE THE KIKI LAYNE CUT!)

Grab a cocktail, put off that housework, and pleasure yourself.

Also, what exactly does an 83-year-old white man think of Booksmart?
