On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are frying up something tasty for y’all. We watched the 1991 film from Jon Avnet, Fried Green Tomatoes.

To kick off our entire month full of Kathy Bates love, we present to you one of the craziest, loveliest, movingest films we’ve ever had the pleasure of talking about on this podcast.

What do you get when you throw in a dash of death and dismemberment, a heap of the freaking Klan, and a whole soupçon of literal cannibalism? You get this incredible film, of course!

Who would have ever guessed those points would also describe a movie about intergenerational storytelling and illicit lesbian feelings? We sure as heck didn’t. What better way to kick off this wonderful month of love?
