Don't have Valentine's Day plans? Listen to this episode for some ideas! Whether you're drunk in love or boycotting romance altogether, there's an option for you.

For the believer of destiny, soulmates, and true love, there's Serendipity a movie starring John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale as two strangers who test fate after a chance meeting in a department store. It also stars Molly Shannon, Jeremy Piven, John Corbett, and Bridget Moynahan. If you're with the love of your life, it'll be a sweet date night watch. If you're single, but have hope, this movie will give you some hope.

If you would like to set the world on fire and think men deserve no good and you can only count yourself, then you'll want to watch Heartbreakers. A mother daughter con duo played by Sigourney Weaver & Jennifer Love Hewitt have hit rock bottom and need to pull one last play to get on their feet financially. Ray Liotta, Jason Lee, and a crop of other stars fill the cast as the two leads weave through endless hare-brained scenarios to win big. Warning: there's a touch of love involved, but with a lot more laughs.

Another week, another return guest. This week, Ruby and her legal counsel, Courtnie, discuss their favorite one-season reality show of the 2000s: Kell on Earth. The show centers on Kelly Cutrone and her PR company, People's Revolution.

The girls discuss:

• their loyal admiration of Kelly all these years
• lessons learned for the millennial workplace
• a snapshot of the era when the show was filmed
• their favorite cast members

All the while, they reference the RHONY reboot several times inadvertently while exchanging memories of their lives at the time they were watching the show. Kell on Earth is the show for the indie girl with taste, baby.

We're back, baby! Just in time to realize it's been 20 years since we became teenagers, yikes.

Ruby has Amber on the pod to discuss The O.C., a culture-changing television show that deserves all the recognition. Some items they cover:

• who is the most successful actor from the show
• were you a Ryan or Seth girlie, yet how annoying they both were
• justice for Julie Cooper
• Marissa was never really trying to improve her life
• Sandy and Kirsten as (nearly) couple goals
• S1's chokehold on us, it's easy to burn through those 27 episodes
• what items of culture we have to thank the O.C. for influencing (spoiler: it's a lot, but specifically Real Housewives)

Happy Holidays! We're back with a series of our favorite holiday movies, starting with The Family Stone.

Listen to Ruby catch up with her MPH besties Ali, Efu, & Lyndsey to discuss this movie that is very special to Lyndsey while Ali and Efu visit it for a first or second time. The group discusses the chaotic sibling switch storylines, whether they side with Meredith or the Stone family, and what may have been progressive in 2005 looks a little different today.

The Family Stone was released in 2005 and stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Dermot Mulroney, Diane Keaton, Craig T Nelson, Luke Wilson, Claire Danes, and Rachel McAdams.
