Go Get Your Girl: A Podcast about Romantic Comedies

Emma & Katie discuss the 2001 romcom Kate & Leopold, and Katie gets wrapped around the axle on the historical inaccuracies (there's a lot). We talk about the plague of flatironed chunky highlights at the turn of the century, the old days of digital cameras and social media, make plans to go to adult summer camp together, and learn that fundamental fact: Movies are a lie. 

Emma & Katie are joined by Kate and Kevin from the Horrorwood podcast to talk about the classic 1936 screwball comedy My Man Godfrey, and also the politics of killing bugs, Equity auditions, sanitization in Community Theatre, The Great Depression, Nicky and Paris Hilton, Rotten Tomatoes, RIP This Guy, and the disparity of the social classes in the 1930s.

Cut from this episode : Emma massively spoiling The Last of Us. So, dodged a bullet there.

Thanks so much to Kate & Kevin! You should listen to their podcast, and support their Patreon!

And catch us tomorrow on their show, as they tell us all about the tragic lives of William Powell and Carole Lombard, the two leads from this film! 

This is a story of podcasters watching boy meet girl. But you should all know up front listeners, this is not a love story....Emma and Katie chat all things twee with the 2009 manic pixie dream girl of a movie 500 Days of Summer. They discuss how Joseph Gordon Levitt's Tom is the worst and question if the filmmakers knew that at the time or not. Also just for the record, Jenny Beckmen- you were NOT a bitch. 

Emma & Katie get wedding fever and talk about the 2019 romcom Plus One, and also: who does and doesn't have shingles, what sound does a cricket make?, The Guillotine, Emma almost kisses everyone she meets, boners don't lie, the 1999 Mummy, and why we won't watch a Star War.

It's our first Heigl! Emma and Katie chat all things weddings with this 2008 Rom Com hit. Heigl's character Jane has got closets full of bridesmaid dresses and zero boundaries....in New York City?! Emma and Katie share different views on if this film was enjoyable or not. Tune in to find out how and why!

In this episode, Emma & Katie head off to camp to discuss 1998's The Parent Trap, which introduced both Lindsay Lohan to the world, and Nancy Meyers in her directing debut. We go deep on camp stories, ocean liners, rich people problems, the Disney Channel in the 90s, gay subtext, mischief, spiders, but mostly how truly terrible these parents would have ot be to put these poor girls through this ordeal. 

It's a netflix original babbbyyyyyyy! Emma and Katie fall INN love with the 2019 Christina Milian and all of New Zealand feature. They ask all the important questions like- should chemistry between your two leads matter if you have an adorable town of kiwis? What exactly is an eco friendly Inn? IS this Inn eco friendly? And many many more!!

Emma & Katie discuss the 2004 lesbian romcom Saving Face, and get distracted Final Destination movies, The Club, age gaps, skinny scarves, a (very) brief history of Taiwan, and Emma finally reveals her Pride and Prejudice quiz results!

Emmas & Katie go on a Gay Trauma Rollercoaster and watch the 2022  gay romcom Bros, but also discuss reverse harems, group sex, The Red Shoe Diaries, Tom Cruise, compromising artistic values in the non-profit sector, and of course, Hillary Duff

Also the hosting site said the word "Bros" was one character too short to be a title of an episode, thus the exclamation point

Emma & Katie discuss the premier lesbian-romcom-written-by-a-straigh-man Imagine Me & You, and also lots of book chat, TV for old people, cockney rhyming slang, "dogging," and whether or not the guy from this movie hooks up with a ten year old, (ten years in the future)

Happy Pride!
