Joe Versus the Volcano
Falling in Love Montage
Dear listeners -- some of whose names we know -- thank you for helping us celebrate Valerie's birth month by listening to our episode covering 1990's Joe Versus the Volcano. We forgot how wonderfully bonkers this movie was. Thank you for listening.

High School Musical: The Trilogy
Falling in Love Montage
For the month of 'ly in the year of our lord '25, we assigned ourselves some summer school. Kind of a lot of summer school, in fact. Making his first FiLM appearance since we covered Frozen in 2017, Helen's son (and Valerie's nephew!) Elam joined us, this time to discuss three whole movies -- if you consider the High School Musical movies to be movies. We truly are all in this together -- and by "this," we mean High School Musical, High School Musical 2, and High School Musical 3: Senior Year. Was this the most fun we've had in a while?...

The Favourite
Falling in Love Montage
For June, we really wanted to bring you something queer. Like gay queer. And I believe we've done that, but also, as a fun bonus, it turns out we've brought you something weird queer as well. So this episode -- and this movie -- lives in that cozy, perfect, Venn-diagram-intersection of good queer things. We talked about Yorgos Lanthimos's gorgeous dark/etc. comedy, The Favourite. To make an otherwise unsettling Pride month better. But still kind of unsettling. But, like, unsettling in a cool way. Happy Pride.

Two Weeks Notice
Falling in Love Montage
We gave you exactly one month's notice that we were going to cover the underrated 2002 cutie vehicle Two Weeks Notice for May ("Sandy summer," we called it, very cleverly). So if this surprised you, I don't know what to say.

Miss Congeniality
Falling in Love Montage
It's been 25 years since the globally beloved Miss Congeniality came out, and it's been 9 years since this only-just-slightly-less-globally-beloved podcast first started. And I don't really remember where I was going with that, but that's the timeline. Anyway, we're finally bringing you what you really want -- a frank, 2-hour discussion of the Sandra Bullock beauty pageant classic, and eventually, somehow, world peace.

Little Women (w/ Shannon Campe)
Falling in Love Montage
It is March, and we are sisters, and that technically makes us March sisters. So this time the "March sisters" pulled in an extra honorary sister to finally fall into the warm embrace of Greta Gerwig's Little Women (2019). Joining us is Shannon Campe of Little Women: A Modern Audio Drama, whose expertise and contagious fanaticism have helped us realize we were no longer little girls. Check out Shannon's own fabulous Little Women adaptation at

Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy
Falling in Love Montage
When we covered Bridget Jones's Diary for our first-ever episode on Galentine's Day in 2016, we couldn't have known the world would give us the incredible gift of a fourth Bridget Jones movie on our very anniversary nine years later. But that's where fate finds us today, watching Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy -- happy, heartbroken, and humbled that we have gotten to do this for going on ten years now.

Cats
Falling in Love Montage
It's a new year and, ugh, a new world, and to celebrate and distract from that, we've brought you the absolutely bonkers bouquet that is Tom Hooper's infamous 2019 masterwork Cats. While taking on this movie was no small feat, it was an incredibly easy choice* -- this episode is dedicated to the memory of James Petrosky, a magnificent person, friend to the show, and the greatest advocate for Cats (2019) this side of the Russell Hotel. *And yes, a Jellicle one as well If so moved, you can donate , or to a hospice local to you.

Our Little Secret (w/ Sarah Norton)
Falling in Love Montage
As a holiday gift, Netflix brought Lindsay Lohan back -- for, like, a real movie this time. So what choice did we have but to dive back in to the Lohan-iverse, bringing along our fetch-as-heck friend and Lindsay Lohan correspondent Sarah K. Norton for Christmas company? We ate this 2024 Atlanta-set rom-com up like so many chocolate cookies (or some other direct reference you'll only fully get if you watch Our Little Secret and/or listen to this episode). Check out Sarah and her husband’s podcast !

John Tucker Must Die
Falling in Love Montage
We finally discover the secret reason Helen made Valerie wait nine years to cover the very-2006, adapted-from-Shakespeare (?!?) teen revenge comedy John Tucker Must Die -- she has a condition* that makes her call basketball "football," and it's very painful and embarrassing. *being dumb And as promised, here the show note where we ask you to email us at . We looked up our email address, and we're pretty sure this is it!
info_outlineIt is the dog days of summer and we have dog mom and Atlanta comedian Gloria White joining the pod to discuss the 2006 ultra chick flick, Something New.
Bonus: Listeners who imbibe can take advantage of the opportunity to drink every time we crack a title pun.
