This week, join all 4 original hosts of Every Rom Com as we kick off our High School movies series by celebrating the 25th anniversary of “Can’t Hardly Wait”! Find out which characters ended up on the cutting room floor, which actor was so stoned he couldn’t remember shooting the movie, and which future stars showed up in minor roles! Plus, we start the whole show off with a high school movies trivia quiz and later get personal and share who we were in our senior years! Whether you were a ‘Denise Fleming’, an ‘Amanda Beckett’, or, maybe especially, a ‘Yearbook Girl’, there’s something for you in this episode!
