  • Ep. 15 -- Wedding Crashers

    Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn take us on a wild ride through wedding season, and Rachel McAdams steals our hearts. This one has a huge cast and a bevy of memorable lines, but we like to focus on things like: how much is Justin like Owen Wilson? When does a waffle become a dessert waffle? And what exactly is Connecticut casual? (We discover that Justin doesn't know where New England is located.)

    1 hr 17 min
  • Ep. 14 -- Mamma Mia!

    Starring Merryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried, this movie remake is sure to make you want to dance right back into the 1970s. Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgard, and Pierce Brosnan steal our hearts, but their vocals leave something to be desired. Justin and I discuss constellations, wearing overalls casually, and how live theater is always better. And we do some mean Cher impressions!

  • Ep. 13 -- Just Like Heaven

    This week, we float away while watching Just Like Heaven, starring Reese Witherspoon and Mark Ruffalo.

    Justin chose this movie because of his magical vacation this summer, but is it really just like heaven there? We also dive (float?) into ghost physics, keeping cool in an emergency, and Mark Ruffalo’s theories on the zodiac killer. And we play another round of “Oh, Dern it!”

  • Ep. 12 -- You've Got Mail

    This week, we dive into You've Got Mail, starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. This is a big-time heavy hitter, and we hope we did it justice. We discuss amicable break-ups, AIM relationships, cool away messages, and listener mail (not in that order). We both think Tom Hanks is the best, but does he have a weird thing with large bodies of water?

    1 hr 43 min
  • Ep. 11 -- Mannequin

    This week, we tackle Mannequin, starring Andrew McCarthy and Kim Cattrall. Our 80s-loving guru Natalie is the special guest! We discuss whether Kim Cattrall is Eqyptian, how inherently creepy mannequins are, and if it's okay to fall in love with an inanimate object. Sarah has a big reveal at the end, and Justin still can't do accents.

    1 hr 25 min
  • Ep. 10 -- Roman Holiday

    And now for something completely different! We go way back to cover the classic romcom Roman Holiday, starring Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn in her film debut.

    We discuss the morality of getting a hot news story at all costs, Justin's understanding of female hairstyles, and if we were secret royalty. Do we have any business discussing this lovely and academy-award-winning movie? Probably not, but we tried our best.

    1 hr 16 min
  • Ep. 9 -- Knocked Up

    This week, we cover Knocked Up, starring Katherine Heigl and Seth Rogen. Yes, another Katherine Heigl movie. We can't believe it either. All credit goes to our special guest Trivia Dave, who chose the movie because of his huge adolescent crush on Katherine Heigl. We also discuss how babies are made, pregnancy boobs, and why we don't see more birth scenes in movies. Justin finds a dryer sheet in his shirt, and Dave has a family of doctors.

    Also, Sarah finally stops eating during recording!

    1 hr 35 min
  • Ep. 8 -- I Feel Pretty

    This episode, we watch I Feel Pretty in the theater! It stars Amy Schumer and a bunch of other people. We discuss anxiety, body image, and Justin's inability to let go of old clothes. We worry about movies where the main character seems to have some sort of head trauma as a plot device. And we walked into the wrong theater! Just one more reason to watch movies at home.

    1 hr 21 min
  • Ep. 7 -- My Best Friend's Wedding

    This episode, we wade into My Best Friend's Wedding starring Julia Roberts and Dylan McDermott. But we all know that Rupert Everett steals the show as the best sidekick in rom-com history. Ever. And Cameron Diaz is excellent as the most lovable bride-to-be in an effed-up sitch.

    Sarah has deep knowledge of this soundtrack, and this may have been where her fascination/attraction to mouth scars began. This one is a doozy, folks!
