E295 – Couture - What Would YOU Do?

Amber and Scott dive into the bizarre world of the film Couture, a fashion-themed horror movie that somehow manages to combine high-end couture with a muddy forest setting. The pair dissects the film’s disjointed narrative, including the confusing intersection of a breast cancer diagnosis, a secret pharmacy school student, and a struggling writer. They also engage in a spirited debate over why models command such massive paychecks and whether the prestige of a famous face is truly worth the exorbitant price tag.

Some What Would You Dos from the episode:

• What would you do if you were in a foreign country and your doctor gave you a cryptic, urgent warning to come in immediately?
• What would you do if you had to balance a major professional opportunity while processing a devastating health diagnosis?
• What would you do if you paid for a professional critique of your book, only to be told that your life stories were boring and unbelievable?
• What would you do if your hotel room was constantly plagued by the sound of screaming from a nearby carnival ride?

The conversation inevitably spirals into the logistics of orgies, leaving Scott and Amber to debate the specific number of participants required to categorize one as "mid-sized." It serves as the perfect, ridiculous bookend to their deep dive into the high-stakes world of Parisian fashion.
