Meet Cute Presents: Sexiled. Can you fall in love after only one conversation? Ronan’s best friend, Sydney, thinks so. Ronan’s about to put it to the test, anyway: Sydney has kicked him out of their hotel room for her latest hook up, and Ronan’s decided to kill the time by wandering around Prague with a stranger.

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” Kendra and Mercedes tackle one of the greatest rom-com love triangles of all time, in BRIDGET JONES’S DIARY. But first, the ladies chat with the incredible debut novelist, Carley Fortune—about everything from how Elle Woods almost inspired her to become a lawyer (thank goodness the book world snagged her instead!), to her debut novel EVERY SUMMER AFTER, to all her takes on the incomparable BRIDGET JONES’S DIARY. You can find Carley on Instagram @carleyfortune.

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” Kendra and Mercedes are headed back to school with the iconic retelling of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, SHE’S THE MAN! Our only critique? That Channing Tatum doesn’t have a dance number in this movie. So, um…this podcast is now officially an Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum stan account…enjoy!

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” Kendra and Mercedes are getting into the soft Jacob Elordi launch…THE KISSING BOOTH. The gals tackle some of the most burning questions surrounding the Netflix rom-com generation…like WHERE did Noah Centineo go? Which Jacob Elordi character would YOU take home to meet the rents? And of course…are we swiping right on this movie?

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” we have a very special treat: instead of chatting about just one rom-com today, Kendra and Mercedes journey through the history of rom-coms with the incredible writer, director and rom-com aficionado, Jonah Feingold. Jonah is the writer/director of @datingandnewyork and AT MIDNIGHT for @paramountplus, and you can find him on IG and TikTok @jonahfeingold. So get that number 2 pencil because rom-com school is in SESSION!

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” Kendra and Mercedes can’t resist a little summer lovin’...with the most iconic movie-musical out there, GREASE! Okay so…maybe it’s not the first movie that comes to mind when you think “rom-com”...but give the episode a listen, and you’ll see where we’re coming from. This episode is dedicated to the sweetest pink lady, the hopelessly devoted heroine: our beloved Olivia Newton-John. Rest in peace, Sandra Dee <3

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” grab your white cardigan and cozy up for some coastal grandmother perfection, because Kendra and Mercedes are bringing you SOMETHING’S GOTTA GIVE. It's a rom-com with a little somethin’ somethin’ for everyone—Nancy Meyers brings us gorgeous kitchens, stunningly messy desks, and of course…a heartthrob for the ages, Keanu Reeves.

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” Kendra and Mercedes are celebrating the TWENTIETH anniversary of the beloved, family centered rom-com, MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING. We absolutely love this movie and have a hunch that you do, too, so come join Kendra, Mercedes, and the whole Portokalos family as we toast this timeless rom-com. Oh and don’t forget your windex!

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” Kendra and Mercedes are here to wax nostalgic about an early 2000s classic, featuring some magical denim and one life-changing summer, in THE SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS. Raise your hand if you also desperately wanted to be Alexis Bledel in this movie…! Lena + Kostos 4Eva <3
