To All The Rom Coms We've Loved Before

The deeper you dig, the more worms you're gonna find...

Nothing could be more true when diving into The Kissing Booth (2018). This absolute trainwreck of a movie comes in hot like it's 2008 and serves up a nasty helping of misogyny, sexual assault, and generally pervy vibes! Brace yourselves this week as Christina, Sarah, and special guest Michael get into the nitty gritty of just what makes this movie so shitty. We don't recommend watching it, but we do recommend listening to us ;)

We're playin' ba-sket-baaaaaaaaall.....we're playin' ba-sket-baaaaaaaall!

Welcome back to another episode of To All the Rom Coms We've Loved Before! This week we are bringing you prime 2000s romance with the absolute and unequivocal classic, Love and Basketball (2000).

Although problematic at times (looking at you, Quincy), this one is a true favorite, because at it's heart it's a movie about loving yourself and loving the game! Get ready to reminisce on all the good parts of this complicated love story, talk some shit about Q, and then go find somebody to play dorm room strip basketball with and email us to let us know how it went.

Hello again, friends!

Do you need to dissociate from the world for an hour and listen to a podcast about romantic comedies? Same. But before you do that, take some time to peruse these resources! We believe Black Lives Matter, and we are going to continue the fight against injustice in America, even during an international pandemic. The violence against BIPOC in this country needs to stop, and the systems that perpetrate it need to be torn down. Here are some links that are FULL UP with resources, including petitions, places to donate, media to be consumed, and mental health resources for BIPOC. Once you've had a look, then get ready for a 2020 view of this 2006 rom com, Failure to Launch.

Welcome back, folks!

Are you looking for soft, rainy, romantic, small town, lesbian, flannel, coming of age vibes??? Then we found the perfect quarantine movie for you! It's The Half of It (2020, Netflix) written and directed by Alice Wu, our queen.

Listen up as we dive into the soft softy softness of this movie and get caressed by the sweet tones of rain on an old train car. This movie, while not technically a rom com, is surely going to make you fall in love.

We all might be stuck inside, but right now you can travel back in time with us all the way to 1999! We're talking ska, we're talking platform flip flops, but most importantly, we're talking 10 Things I Hate About You (1999)! Tune in to our latest episode as Christina and Sarah talk about high school proms, sexy Australian god Heath Ledger, and more!

DISCLAIMER*

*Sarah refers to the song "One Week" by Barenaked Ladies as beng by 311 THE ENTIRE EPISODE so sorry but we all make mistakes.

Welcome back, friends! We're still in quarantine, which means we have loads of time to watch rom coms and record episodes for you, and while we're in this state, why not watch a rom com that makes you question whether or not you really should be dating at all, right? Yep, we're bringing you our take on He's Just Not That Into You (2009).

There's so many plots! So many people! So many shitty decisions being made at all times! Buckle up, for a rewarding yet very confusing ride.

Tell us what you think!

It's the Pod in Quarantine! This week we went a little off brand and watched Heathers(1988). It may not be your classic rom-com, but there's romance and there's comedy (albeit a little dark), so we are calling it a rom-com!

Enjoy this cult classic with us as we discuss the fabulous Winona Ryder, the mysterious and squinty Christian Slater, and the idea that Heathers is basically Say Anything (1989) if everyone smoked meth once.

IT'S OUR FIRST MINISODE!!!!!

Welcome back, friends! You can have an extra lil episode, as a treat, because we're debating the merits of Peter Kavinsky and John Ambrose McClaren. Sarah is firmly team Virgo aka team John Ambrose and Christina is a lax hoe for Petey K. Listen up as we get down to the nitty gritty of who is truly the boy we love the most!

The Pod Abroad continues this week as Sarah and Christina bring you the episode you have been waiting for since the beginning of time...you guessed it (probs from the title), it's To All The Boys, P.S. I Still Love You aka THE SEQUEL TO TO ALL THE BOYS I'VE LOVED BEFORE!!!!!!!!!

We have been waiting eons for this, and here we are. Join us as we take a little ride through Lara Jean Covey's disastrous dating choices and a whole LOT of teen drama.

You may think this is the last you'll hear from us about this franchise until TATB 3 comes out, but then again, you may be wrong ;)
