It’s been a solid month in the 80s now, as Paul and Erika are getting into 1985’s Girls Just Want To Have Fun starring Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt! They discuss auditions, try to remember phone numbers and wonder if their friendship involved a moment of love at first sight. And in all that, they even get into the film, another entry in the shockingly prolific coming-of-age dance movie genre! -Your hosts agree: watch Step Up! Then immediately slide into Erika’s DMs about it.

1987 is the year and Mannequin is the film this week! In our longest episode ever, Erika and Paul are completely confounded and delighted by this movie, starring Andrew McCarthy, Kim Cattrall and Meshach Taylor. Also, since it comes up, they discuss how high a window they would jump out of for each other. Just normal, expected conversation when one talks about Mannequin.

-Erika recommends Pretty In Pink as a palate cleanser, also starring both Andrew McCarthy and James Spader.
-Paul points out that Kim Cattrall and Carole Davis both were in an early episode of Sex & the City.

Here’s some exciting news...Paul and Erika get to talk about Clue this week! The 1985 film is a favorite of both hosts, and they get into why...and also why some things in it are definitely showing some signs of age. But still, they’ll always keep coming back for Madeline Kahn and Tim Curry and and Lesley Ann Warren and Christopher Lloyd and Eileen Brennan and Martin Mull and Colleen Camp and Michael McKean. Buckle up and enjoy!

-Here’s the oral history of Clue that Erika references. It’s a great read!

This week Erika and Paul peer into 1989 and watch Teen Witch. How can one even begin to summarize Teen Witch? The rapping! The carousels! The sex education class (protect Sparky Sperm and Edna Egg at all costs)! Come along for the ride as your hosts try to make sense of 6th grade quarterbacks, contraceptive umbrellas and secret sabbaticals. But most of all they wonder...is weather windy on a Saturday night? Top that!

Listener requests continue during quarantine and this week Paul & Erika are taking a close look at 1996’s The Birdcage. We all know that Robin Williams, Nathan Lane, Gene Hackman & Dianne Wiest are essentially perfect...but does the movie hold up? Also, and perhaps ever more exciting, it’s the episode when we find out once and for all if Paul needs an anger translator (spoiler: he does not). Enjoy!

-Paul recommended Capote, written by Dan Futterman, as a palate cleanser.
-Erika felt a lot of hometown pride for Miami while watching Moonlight.

1992 is the year this week, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the film! Erika and Paul are both out as Buffy the TV show super-fans, so it’s time for them to take a good hard look at the movie that started it all. Along the way, they wonder what happens to all the vampire corpses (they don’t dust in this world!), speculate on where in LA some of these scenes take place (haunted ballroom?) and Erika is forced to take a good long look at some of her fashion choices from the 90s (cutoff denim shorts!). You don’t want to miss this one, so download and enjoy!

-Both of your hosts encourage you to just watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the TV show.

-Erika recommends the first season of Scrubs as a palate cleanser, where Brendan Fraser had a short guest arc.
-Paul also recommends another Brendan Fraser movie: Gods & Monsters, also starring Ian McKellen.
