Movielife Crisis

1991, Ep. 6

Albert Brooks writes, directs, and stars in this movie about what happens after you die.  Spoiler alert: you have to defend your life to a room of super-smart afterlife lawyers, who decide if you passed. 

The food is amazing, though, and you get to hang out with young, hot, and very chill Meryl Streep!

1991, Ep. 3

Jeff, did you get the audio pulled from Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead so we can include it?

I'm right on top of that, Rose!

Yes, yes you are. Today we're on the cult classic Christina Applegate (not to be confused with Christina Aguilera) vehicle Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead.  Co-starring the former Knox Overstreet, Josh Charles, and with a sneaky early career David Duchovny (complete with Binaca spray and Miami vice sports coat), this cornball comedy is surprisingly fun and sweet still today. 

We cover:

• Christina Applegate vs. Christina Aguilera
• Computers: here to stay? (comes with LotusNotes)
• And why no one smokes in movies anymore
