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!

The real drama of The Drama (2026) is that no characters spend the entire movie telling Zendaya how beautiful she is. We discuss this divisive new film along with empathy, the ability to change, and an outsider's perspective on the US.

We know you're not getting enough Dakota Johnson in your life, so we're covering 2025's Splitsville to try to make up the deficit. But be warned, this film is aware of how UNromantic it is.

Love Me, Love Me (2026) has it all--love triangles, motorcycles, underground teen fighting rings--you name it! But is it any good? Well, I think we're going to need a more complex scale to nail that one down.
