Film to Table

Our Fall-ish film series continues with another Tim Curry classic: CLUE (1985)!

In this review, we explore how the iconic CLUE board game became a movie, dig into the development of this beloved cult classic, and highlight all of the unforgettable performances from its ridiculously talented cast. We ultimately decide that we need to watch this movie a million more times because, honestly, we love it that much.

In a Film to Table first, we also experience a real-life CLUE incident in the middle of our recording — a mysterious incident that remains unsolved. 👀

So grab your champagne glass and join us in the dining room. Your chair awaits!

We’re continuing our Fall-ish season with a first-time viewing of Practical Magic (1998). We ponder why it took us so long to watch this movie, and whether, perhaps, there was a reason we waited.

We have a million and one questions, desperately want more of the Aunts, and discover that one of us has some VERY strong feelings about the legendary midnight margaritas scene.

Open your umbrellas, jump off the roof, and join us for an unhinged discussion of Practical Magic!

We’re kicking off our fall movie season by rewinding to a family favorite, a film we covered way back in our first season.

In this special remastered edition, we’re revisiting what we love most about You’ve Got Mail: Nora Ephron’s writing, her unique characters, the magic of New York in the fall, and the ways technology plays a role in the film.

Grab your favorite book and pull up a chair. We have much to discuss!

We’re continuing our TV Dinner series with a Michelle pick from the Idea Jar: Gilmore Girls, Season 1, Episode 7, Kiss and Tell.

Whether you are on Team Dean or wish he’d move back to Chicago, we can’t help but celebrate with Rory! In this episode, we’re breaking down her adorable first kiss and the way it changes her dynamic with her mom.

We’re celebrating fall. We get nostalgic about movie nights. We wonder if Dean is secretly into Lorelei. And we end with a very weird dinner party between Taylor Doose and Mrs. Kim.

Hope you’ll pull up a chair ( or maybe a Luke’s Diner stool) and join us for this fun conversation.

Welcome back to another TV Dinner episode! This week we’re covering the pivotal(?) FRIENDS Season 8, Episode 12, The One Where Joey Dates Rachel.

There is much to discuss, such as: do we like Joey and Rachel as a couple, or are they better as friends? As usual, our conversation kicks up a lot of personal memories, including the weird game machine we had in our basement, college rollerblading, and our own “Geller Yeller” family newsletter.

We also imagine our perfect dates, compare our own dating “moves,” and build dinner trays for an at-home Joey and Rachel date.

Pull up your recliner, watch or rewatch the episode with us, tell us what you think of Joey and Rachel, and subscribe for more nostalgic movie and TV conversations. Stick around until the end to see what we pull from the Idea Jar next!

New Girl Season 2, Episode 15 may officially be called "Cooler," but to us, it's the one where Nick and Jess finally kiss. 

In this TV Dinner episode, we revisit one of New Girl's most iconic episodes, discussing True American, Tumblr-era nostalgia, our favorite side characters, stolen packages, and why this kiss still stands among television's very best.

🍿 Watch (or rewatch!) along with us, then let us know your favorite New Girl episode in the comments.

In the premiere episode of our TV DINNER series, we’re covering the incomparable season finale of Fleabag, Season 2.

How does Phoebe Waller-Bridge manage to pack so much into such a short episode? Is this the most satisfying or tragic romance story in the history of television? Do we need more friends like Godmother's? Is firing the humming cleaner an act of unconditional love? We’re getting into all of it.

Pull up a chair and join us as we laugh and cry in tandem.

Is Cool Runnings really as good as we remember it? First, that assumes we remembered it correctly, which Michelle definitely did not.

We're joined by returning guest star, husband/brother-in-law of the podcast, Jimmy, for a nostalgic trip back to 1993. Together, we reminisce about the Olympics in the '90s, fixate on one of the film's sweetest storylines, and quote Sanka far more times than anyone asked us to.

Our sports season wouldn't be complete without Cool Runnings, and after this rewatch, we have an even greater appreciation for what makes this movie so special.

Grab a Red Stripe, put on some 90s athleticwear, and join us at the table.

🍝 Question for the Table:
Which Olympic sport is your favorite?

In our most Y2K-coded episode ever, we’re joined by one of Michelle’s childhood besties, Sushma Krishna, as we travel back to the year 2000 and revisit the iconic teen comedy Bring It On.

Following Torrance and the Toros on their cheerleading journey sparks ALL the nostalgic memories: high school ones for Michelle and Sushma, and elementary school ones for Laura. Along the way, we discuss what makes Bring It On so unexpectedly smart, how screenwriter Jessica Bendinger helped break new ground for teen films, and why we love this romance storyline as a side plot.

Dust off your school spirit and meet us on the bleachers! We saved you a seat + (some vending machine goodies).

🍝 Question for the Table:
What song reminds you most of your senior year of high school?
