Say Anything: This week guest Courtney Merrell comes to the podcast with two cans of wine and cheese-- what could go wrong? This one is for all you 80's kids! Say Anything is a 1989 teen romantic comedy-drama written by Cameron Crowe. The film follows the romance between Lloyd Dobler (John Cusack), an average student, and Diane Court (Ione Skye), the class valedictorian, immediately after their graduation from high school. Jill and Courtney drink wine, sing Peter Gabriel and feel the earth move.
