On the Season 2 premiere of Talking Movies with My Mom, we boldly go where, well, some have gone before, when talking about our favorite Dynamic Duos – Kirk & Spock and Bill & Ted. We explore the endearing and enduring power of friendship, possible side ventures focusing on Spock’s humanity, and those all important life lessons that go beyond "party on, dudes!"

On the fourth bonus episode of Talking Movies with My Mom, we’re talking about SXSW ‘24, where in-between standing in block-long lines, fending off stage moms, and sobbing at Q&As, we saw amazing movies (and learned never to underestimate the size of Dev Patel’s fanbase).

On the second bonus episode of Talking Movies with My Mom, in honor of Jackson’s special day, we’re talking birthday movies. 

First is "13 Going on 30," starring Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo, Andy Serkis, Judy Greer, and a very young Brie Larson. We explore the depths of a movie that could have been a one-trick pony, weigh in on the idea of a multiverse sequel, and praise the power of three – Rick Springfield, Pat Benatar, and Michael Jackson.

Next up is "Happy Death Day," starring Jessica Rothe, Israel Broussard, and Ruby Modine. We talk about horror homages to classic comedies, why final girls should shame movie murderers, and how reliving your birthday over and over may not be so bad after all.

On the first bonus episode of Talking Movies with My Mom, we welcome Jackson’s Grandma and Tamara’s Mom, Phyllis Bell (who’s also a proud SAG-AFTRA member who once played a burned-out waitress on "The Young and the Restless"). We kickstart the holidays with a discussion of our favorite movies: "It’s a Wonderful Life" (Grandma’s), "The Long Kiss Goodnight" (Tamara’s), and "Klaus" (Jackson’s). Each brings a different spirit to the season, but one thing they all share — making Grandma cry.
