On this episode of ReconCast the guys reconnect after a long break since they last spoke. Thanks so much to our one fan for reminding us to keep at it! Lots of things for us to discuss today: homeschool graduates, IKEA hostage traps, ad-hoc family trips, even buying a car! Join the guys as they share some stories together.

The WVM team tackles the genre of the modern Romantic Comedy, theoretically anyway. One team member has written a full-length screenplay in that genre, and this allows us to discuss the 7-point standardized structure for such a beast; even as one of us wonders whether redeeming the genre is a fail from the outset, from a risk/reward standpoint. He learns his place quickly though. How can we promote a Christian worldview through the vehicle of the Romantic Comedy, while avoiding sap, cheese, and preachy-ness?
