This week on the pod, we're reviewing 'Love at Sunset Terrace', a feel-good movie where a city gal goes to a small town and falls in love. Are we shocked?

SHOW NOTES:

This week Aya and KB potentially find the second worst movie they've watched! What made it so!?

Can they get her sister's wedding organized before the 4th of July (just 4 weeks away)!?

Is this Hallmark Channel movie the worst one we've ever seen??

Spoiler... it's not.

But, we do have some strong opinions about this one, particularly Aya.
