Drag superstar, singer-songwriter, trans icon, and now actor, Adore Delano has tried out (and mastered) a lot of different roles. And what better guide through a story of self discovery and transformation than Drew Barrymore, and in particular her character Josie Geller in NEVER BEEN KISSED. And just because it's #MaxFunDrive, we're throwing in a little bit of JENNIFER'S BODY into the mix. 

Then Jordan has one quick thing about

It's not hard to imagine Elle Woods as an icon for a young girl in the '00s, but it might surprise you that Elle was a major inspiration to the screenwriter and co-producer behind the new horror film FACES OF DEATH, as well as HOW TO BLOW UP A PIPELINE and CAM. Isa Mazzei talks with Jordan about the experience of seeing an undeniably femme figure being unafraid to break the mold.

Then Jordan has one quick thing about the new MORTAL KOMBAT II.

FACES OF DEATH (2026) is in theaters now!

You may not remember 2000's Wonder Boys, but The Flop House's Dan McCoy does. He and Jordan discuss this Michael Chabon adaptation, starring Michael Douglas and Tobey Maguire. It's a part of Dan's DVD collection; for Jordan, it was a first-time watch. And while Wonder Boys may have come out in the year 2000, that places it at the tail end of '90s era cinema (and, yes, pre-9/11 cinema). Which means it reminds Dan and Jordan of a movie era that brings up a lot of dangerously warm feelings. 

Here's a sneak peek at that conversation! The full version, and much more bonus content, is available for members at any level. MaximumFun.org/join!

Olivia Taylor Dudley wowed us on THE MAGICIANS ; now in her latest film, TOUCH ME, she takes on the perils of an addictive alien boyfriend. And in this episode, she’s telling Jordan about all the facets of her that felt represented by both Clementine and Joel in one of her favorite films, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND — from a combination of introversion and impulsiveness to her struggles with sleep-wake confusion.

Then Jordan has one quick thing about Alice Maio Mackay’s new film, THE SERPENT’s SKIN.

TOUCH ME is available on Demand and on Digital now

It's MaxFunDrive. And here, for the first time, we give you an exclusive look (well, listen) at the craft of podcasting: presenting Casters on Casters.

In this episode, Jordan Crucchiola (Feeling Seen) and John-Luke Roberts (Sound Heap with John-Luke Roberts) detail how much the podcasting landscape has changed since they got their starts, and why they aren't likely to win a podcasting Golden Globe.
