This episode is a very special Valentine’s Day episode that’s a day early! The theme is, of course, Romantic Comedies, and we have an extra special guest joining us to discuss their trepidation on the genre: Conan Neutron! You may know Conan from his work as a musician and his band, Conan Neutron & the Secret Friends as well as his music-based podcast Protonic Reversal, OR his work as a host on Movie Night Extravaganza. However you know him, this episode if EXTRA LONG because we has such a fun and fruitful discussion on why we *both* aren’t too keen on romcoms. Even if that is true, Moonstruck (1987) is STILL a perfectly weird little gem for even the most cynical of us.
