40 Dates and 40 Nights (2026) asks the question, "Would you do something inconvenient if your Grandma agrees to pay your rent?" The answer is a resounding yes. We discuss dating stamina, aunts vs. grandmas, and the amazing impact of proximity when it comes to romance.

Pro tip: grab a box of tissues before you watch this one. Voicemails for Isabelle (2026) is a tearjerker in all the right ways. Through our tears, we discuss cellular privacy, relationship podcasters, and how you can tell when a filmmaker truly loves the genre.

A huge thank you to every single one of you who have listened to and supported us as we've made our way to 300 episodes. We couldn't be more grateful for our listeners, supporters, and Patrons to make this all possible.

Ahem. Enough sappy stuff. Back to the serious matter of secretly-dating step-siblings in Your Fault: London (2026).

My Fault: London (2025) has all the tropes we've come to expect from the New Adult genre--fistfights, car chases, main character in distress--with an added step-sibling twist. We also discuss bad valets, the lawyer from Fleabag, and Tokyo Drift.

The creatively-titled Office Romance (2026) shows us what happens when a strict HR no-dating policy comes face-to-face with a handshake from a glowing Jennifer Lopez. We also chat about restricted raunch, self-insert fanfiction, and the powerhouse performance from Betty Gilpin.

Can a comedy be both light and dark? Lightly dark? That's what we get in 2025's Oh, Hi!, a romance featuring a nice weekend getaway that turns into something else entirely. We chat about movie morals, light bondage, and remembering to pretend to forget. (A sheepish welcome back to anyone who listened when I accidentally uploaded this episode last week.)

Our apologies (and also congratulations?) to anyone who listened to next week's episode before we replaced it with the correct file! In Tuner (2025), we face the classic story of a piano tuner turned safe cracker who may or may not find love along the way. It happens all the time! We also discuss bobbleheads, unexpected blessings, and curses disguised as watches.

It's travel season (isn't that every season?) and we're headed to Italia for the views, the food, the wine, and the fun little rom-com You, Me & Tuscany (2026). Find out if Sam thinks Regé-Jean Page's face can fit believably in a contemporary setting!
