CRUSHED Podcast

We're three weeks into watching ALL the movies! Ricky Carmona and Sarah Morisano discuss 2008's MAD MONEY, 2019's PORTRAIT OF A LADY ON FIRE, their favorite heist films, at-home yoga, and zoom karaoke! This episode includes a special shout-out to friend of the pod, Drea Clark, co-host of Who Shot Ya?!

Another week under quarantine, another week of film nerds watching movies. This week, Ricky and Sarah discuss two of John Leguizamo's most celebrated movies—TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, JULIE NEWMAR (1995) and SUMMER OF SAM (1999)—along with other odds and ends. SCOUT, our canine co-host and four-legged friend of the pod, makes a special appearance on this one. Check it! 

Sarah and Ricky's first episode is a triple feature recommendation of movies to watch at home if trending titles like CONTAGION and OUTBREAK are a bit too real right now. They quaranscreened THE DESCENT, SIGNS and A QUIET PLACE, movies that deal with isolation and infrastructure failure in a more metaphoric, more artistic sort of way... 

Next week, they'll be quaranscreening SUMMER OF SAM and TO WONG FOO THANKS FOR EVERYTHING JULIE NEWMAR, so you can quaranstream those at home before tuning in! 

Comedian Valerie Tosi talks about how having a crush alters her behavior, why her crushes usually think she doesn't like them, and the 90s actor that caught her eye as a kid growing up in New England. We also talk about Catherine O'Hara and Schitt's Creek because Valerie knows what's up! 

Friend of the pod Ricky Carmona kicks off a new season of CRUSHED and ranks his favorite movies of the last decade. 

Happy Friday the 13th! This week, comedian and writer Chris Walsh stops by CRUSHED to pay homage to horror movies and his favorite film franchise—Friday the 13th! 

Film critic Alonso Duralde (The Wrap, Linoleum Knife, Who Shot Ya?) literally wrote the book on Christmas movies... In this very special "It's Thanksgiving, so fire up the Christmas movies!"-episode of CRUSHED, Alonso reviews Sarah's favorite Christmas movies, talks about his own favorite Christmas movies, and his book Have Yourself A Movie Little Christmas!

TV writer Sam Jarvis (Dollface, Tosh.0) shares her childhood crushes, up to and including Jonathan Taylor Thomas! We also talk TV show crushes like Schitt’s Creek and Gilmore Girls, and Sam breaks down for us why being "crushworthy" is all a state of mind. 

Lindsay Ames, comedian and host of Make That Sandwich, stops by CRUSHED to talk about camp crushes, comedy crushes, commercial audition nightmares, Australian Survivor, and her favorite ghost hunter TV shows.

It's our Halloween episode and this week we have comedian and TV producer Sharon Houston spilling the TEA on her #1 comedy crush! Sister names NAMES here and makes herself vulnerable in a spooooky way that would terrify most people! ...Can you tell it's our Halloween episode? We also talk about thriving in FWB situations (that's Friends with Bennies), spotting scary ass red flags in someone you're dating, and the actual ghost that haunted Sharon's rent-controlled NYC apartment in Hell's Kitchen.
