Welcome to THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED STREAMING CLUB, where film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold catch up on older movies one or both of them have never seen before, as chosen by YOU, our listeners!

This week on THE STREAMING CLUB, Bibbs and Witney book a reservation at MYSTIC PIZZA, a cult classic romantic drama starring Julia Roberts, Lili Taylor, Annabeth Gish, Vincent D'Onofrio and Conchata Ferrell! This story of love, messy emotions and secret pizza toppings helped elevate many of the cast members to stardom, but it's not talked about very often anymore. Does it still deserve its classic status?
