Not A Bomb Special Edition: Blockers (with Michele Meek)
Join us for an exceptional bonus episode of Not A Bomb Podcast! We are absolutely thrilled to welcome back the immensely talented writer, filmmaker, and professor Michele Meek to our show. Michele’s vast expertise in the world of teen sex comedies elevates our podcast with a trove of insights making this episode truly extraordinary.
On this bonus episode, we dive into the 2018 sex comedy - Blockers. The film follows a trio of parents who are trying to stop their respective daughters from losing their virginity on prom night. Or, in more modern terms, they are c*ckblocking their own kids. For a successful comedy with an amazing supporting cast, most people have forgotten Blockers. Should you revisit this moderate box office hit? Was the film unique enough to set itself apart from the averge teen sex comedy? Download the episode and find out!
