"That's life. If nothing else, it's life. It's real, and sometimes it f*ckin' hurts, but it's sort of all we have."

20 years ago, Zach Braff made his feature directorial debut with a little indie film that won over the hearts of critics and audiences and changed the way female protagonists would be showcased in quarter-life crisis films forever. Despite the love shown to the film upon release, the years have not been kind to GARDEN STATE, and The Wives Colangelo are going to get to the bottom of why the tides have turned against it. Not to be dramatic, but put on your headphones because this episode will change your life.
