THIRST AID KIT | S2E10 | MORE, MORE, MORE!
🎶 How do you like it? How do you like it? How do you like my love? 🎵
We like it under-appreciated and smokin’ hot, thank you!
On this week’s episode, we looked at a new generation of talented hotties, and asked, like thirsty Oliver Twists, Please, Hollywood — can we have some more?
More Rahul Kohli ✅ More Alfred Enoch ✅ More O'Shea Jackson, Jr. ✅ AND EVEN MORE Steven Yeun ✅
Like, LOOK AT STEVEN YEUN, FFS.
More like Steven YUM, amirite? Unf.
Since we’re here, let’s have a look at Rahul too.
Excuse me!
We spoke about How To Get Away With Murder’s Alfie Enoch’s beautiful dimples and his neck, and his naughty little smirk, and we we explained iZombie’s Rahul’s appeal — the beard! the squint! the geekery! the British accent! — and we went long (👀) on O’Shea Jackson Jr.’s turn in Ingrid Goes West, which is a film you should rent or buy immediately, because of… reasons. 😋
We had a a special guest break down those reasons (and more!) — because we believe in leading by example, we thirsted responsibly and invited all-round delightful human being, Brittany Luse, co-host of The Nod podcast, into the studio. Brittany helped us bear the thirst burden, and waxed lyrical about her own under-appreciated bae, O'Shea Jackson Jr. (which evolved into a VERY interesting conversation about romcoms, finding a person who is as similarly freaky as you are, and vulnerability. Seriously, just listen!).
Yes, clap for yourself, O’Shea!
We also spoke about Steven Yeun, (nee Glenn on The Walking Dead) who is in the most purple patch of his very exciting career. He was in Mayhem, and he’s gonna be in Sorry To Bother You, as well as Burning (which got a five-minute standing ovation at Cannes this spring), and who is hot, and commanding and can do comedy and action and every other genre out there and wouldn’t it be great if all these young men got their due in Hollywood, and we, as a romcom-starved generation could get multiple romcoms starring all and any of these men? YES, IT WOULD.
Fanfic Wars is a little different this time around. You might need a box of tissues, and yeah, this episode is bonus-sized episode — with 20% more thirst! — because we had a lot of feelings, OK? You can listen to the whole episode RIGHT HERE (more ways to listen are listed below, and on our Episodes page).
