What is a man doing here? Torie and Hannah allow Ansel Burch to speak on mic for the first time as we discuss the Nora Ephron classic Sleepless in Seattle (1993)! A perfectly content woman descends into near madness after hearing a particularly sad man on the radio. Not only does this have some of the best child acting we've ever seen, but we discuss microwave techniques, why widowers are attractive, and how parasocial relationships have always existed. More importantly though, we have a lot of fun talking about this delightful movie. Thank you for listening! Content warnings include: Off screen death, grief, stalking (or research), and various phrases from the 90s
