In our very first episode, we’re introducing ourselves the only way that feels right: through the movies that shaped us. We kick things off with a quick rundown of what’s happening in pop culture right now — anime, animation, horror, and game-to-screen news that has us excited, confused, or already questioning Hollywood’s decisions.

Then we dive into the main event: the formative films that influenced our taste, worldview, and love of storytelling. These aren’t “best of” lists — they’re the movies that stuck with us, changed how we watch things, and quietly explain a lot about our current obsessions. We wrap it all up with rapid-fire one-sentence reviews, because overthinking pop culture is kind of our brand.

Welcome to Two Girls and a Plot Twist.
