Jordan and Brooke are joined by Mia Vicino (Letterboxd) for 2003's absolutely perfect, no notes screwball rom-com! If you haven't joined the "Down With Love" army, now's the time. There's chocolate! There's beautiful mod 60s outfits! There's Ewan McGregor in adorable glasses! We discuss how Peyton Reed's underseen classic is a takedown of patriarchal gender roles, the unexpected lavender marriage it sets up, "Know" vs. "Now," and how our best comedies can be both funny and insightful – what a concept!

Jordan and Brooke are joined by film critic Zoë Rose Bryant for the delightful hangout vibes of 2021's "Luca."

Are we in a new era of chill Soderbergh? How delightfully unhinged is Salma Hayek in this? And how the HELL does Channing Tatum manage to do all of that?

Jordan and Brooke are joined by Caitlin Durante and Jamie Loftus (The Bechdel Cast) to discuss the biggest and best blockbuster of them all.

We dive into filmmaker Celine Sciamma's love for this film's freeing subtext, Leo's androgynous look that awakened us all, Rose defying gender norms, Cal's campy villain performance, and gay icon Kathy Bates (aka the Unsinkable Molly Brown).
