ep. 17: Brendan's survival skills are unrivaled. This movie somehow reminds Brittany of The Little Mermaid and Peaky Blinders. There's a big, huge, earth-shattering disagreement about a movie prop that prompts Brittany to ask listeners to weigh in. And FYI, quicksand is real; stay calm and lighten your load. Continuing "Our Favorites" theme for January is Brittany's next pick, Apocalypto (2006). -Music by Brendan and Brittany -Credits for the movie being reviewed: Writer(s): Mel Gibson, Farhad Safinia Director(s): Mel Gibson Chapters: (00:00) Surviving In the Wild (04:48) January...

ep. 16: If you haven't seen this film please do yourself a favor and go watch it. Brendan's struck by the visuals. Brittany's majorly impressed with the transitions. They both applaud the monkey's talent (and everyone else's!). Brittany's first pick for January's theme "Our Favorites" is The Fall (2006). -Music by: Brendan and Brittany -Credits for the movie being reviewed: Writer(s): Dan Gilroy, Nico Soultanakis, Tarsem Singh Director(s): Tarsem Singh Chapters: (00:00) Pretending To Be Paralyzed (02:25) January Theme and Movie (03:40) The 6-7 Synopses (06:12) Like, Love, Hate, Can't...

ep. 15: Brendan can't think of a single bad thing to say about this film but Brittany has plenty. A new month, a new year, and a new theme—Our Favorites (Part 1).

ep. 14: Brittany doesn't think recovering your memory after amnesia gives you an excuse to waste produce. Brendan admits that he used to carol and Brittany is beside herself. If you're a chef, do y'all really do that? The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996) is the final December film for our theme "It Happened Around Christmas." -Credits for the movie being reviewed: Writer(s): Shane Black Director(s): Renny Harlin

ep. 13: Brendan likens Sheridan Whiteside's personality to Marty Supreme/Mauser's. Brittany would rather smell a familiar vagina than a strange one. Would you pronounce Fauntleroy as Faunt Leroy or Fauntle Roy? Brittany and Brendan can barely keep up with the next film in December's theme of "It Happened Around Christmas," The Man Who Came To Dinner (1941). -Credits for the movie being reviewed: Writer(s): Julius J. Epstein, Philip G. Epstein, George S. Kaufman, Moss Hart Director(s): William Keighley

ep. 12: Brittany doesn't agree with the secret to airline travel. Brendan thinks its anatomically impossible for a tall man to have small feet. Least importantly, are you someone who knows the difference between a prank and a crank call? Die Hard (1988) is the next film in December's theme of "It Happened Around Christmas." -Credits for the movie being reviewed: Writer(s): Roderick Thorp, Jeb Stuart, Steven E. de Souza Director(s): John McTiernan

ep. 11: Brendan is thoroughly disgusted by the bedroom usage that would be a reality in this apartment. Brittany can't quite grasp the concept of galoshes. Brendan gives the shortest synopsis ever of "Music Man" which puts Brittany on the edge of her seat. The next film in the "It Happened Around Christmas" theme for December is The Apartment (1960). -Credits for the movie being reviewed: Writer(s): Billy Wilder, I.A.L. Diamond Director(s): Billy Wilder

ep. 10: Would you be able to recognize the face of the person you were madly in love with during high school? Brittany thinks its hard to pull off a comedic film noir movie. Brendan takes credit for diagnosing Brittany's hearing problems. And apparently codpiece is a word in everyone's lexicon. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) is the first film in our December theme It Happened Around Christmas. Writers: Brett Halliday, Shane Black Directors: Shane Black
