From Jaws to Barbenheimer, summer has always been Hollywood’s favourite season — but why? In this episode of Reel Talk, we break down how the hottest months of the year consistently deliver the biggest blockbusters, the wildest cultural moments, and the fattest box office returns.

Plus, we play a round of “Summer or Bummer” and get nostalgic about our all-time favourite summer movie memories.
