Bromancing The Stone

Max's microphone is a bit hot on this episode (feel free to turn down the volume a little bit). There's a lot of talk about sports, including the opening question (feel free to tweet your thoughts to us on Twitter @BroTheStonePod). There's also a discussion of the origins of the song "Coming Home" that English soccer fans sing at their matches (unfortunately, a title still did not come home). You'll notice there isn't a lot of discussion about the movie that was watched this week, 2016's Mike And Dave Need Wedding Dates. Well... The less said about it, the better (as you can see by the episode length). Still worth a listen, though, so join in!

This week, Rene and Max watch the 2012 Romcom/RomDram Stuck In Love. Max realizes early into viewing the movie that he actually had seen this before and just completely forgot about it, which goes to show the quality of script we're looking at here. The podcast episode should be a bit more memorable, so give it a listen and enjoy!

This week Max and Rene watched (500) Days Of Summer and it brought a lot of feelings. You can see that from the length of this episode. But there's also a Wander Franco reference, an explanation of the song "Country Grammar" by Nelly, and copious other tangents that the you know and love them for. So listen and enjoy! 

This week, Rene and Max review the 2020 Sci-Fi Romcom Palm Springs, which stars Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti. This episode, more than any other, is filled with SPOILERS, so we strongly suggest watching the film before partaking in the podcast episode. Rene and Max suggest that because the movie is very good and they also believe this episode of the pod is pretty good. So watch the movie, listen to the pod, and enjoy the content!

This week Rene and Max talk about real life things in conjunction with the 2015 Romcom, Sleeping With Other People. Some of those real life things are deep, like knowing one's worth in a relationship, and other real life things are shallow, like the summer weather patterns in Chicago and Oregon. Have a listen and enjoy the breadth of real life discussion that occurs!

Usually Rene and Max watch the worst Romcoms that they can find in the month of August, but this week they were served up this treat unexpectedly. Did You Hear About The Morgans? is a flawed film with a title that is just as flawed. Rene and Max give the 2009 Romcom its proper due in this week's episode, so give it a listen!

Rene and Max continue their run of Action Romcoms by reviewing the movie that created a resurgence of the genre in the late 2000s, Mr. And Mrs. Smith. The bros discuss how hard it is to separate reality from fiction regarding the movie and its protagonists, as well as how the movie resonates now that Rene and Max are in their 30s and not high schoolers. It's an interesting discussion and worth a listen, so press play and enjoy!

Rene and Max watched the 2010 Action Romcom Killers. It is directed by Robert Luketic, who also directed Legally Blonde, Monster-In-Law, and The Ugly Truth... You can see where this episode is going... Have a listen as the Bros go over this failed Improv scene that is elongated to 100 minutes.

It's Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler at their aesthetic peaks! What could go wrong? Well... Allow Rene and Max to dive into that. They watched 2010 Action Romcom The Bounty Hunter and there is not much to discuss... but there is plenty to complain about. So have a listen! 

Rene and Max journey to the Caribbean for the 2008 Romcom Adventure film, Fool's Gold! Rene and Max discuss how 4/20 friendly this movie is, how there is a lot going on and none of it makes sense, and how it doesn't matter because the water is soooooo pretty to look at! Have a listen and enjoy!
