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!

Practical Magic
Falling in Love Montage
This very special Halloween episode delves into the story of two close-but-disparate sisters and how they found themselves shunned by their community because of their unusual background -- they were bitches who had either never before seen Practical Magic, or they thought it was silly, or both. Join us as we come to terms with every wild thing the beloved 1998 rom-com-fantasy-crime-drama-cult-classic-Margo-Martindale-vehicle Practical Magic stands for and find ourselves maybe grabbing our proverbial brooms to join the coven. Do we make ourselves as silly as the film we're discussing? At...

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (w/ Angel Kofsky)
Falling in Love Montage
You asked for it (we think? It would have been a long time ago; we could be wrong. Someone definitely asked for it, we're pretty sure), and after a mere half-dozen years, we did it -- Michel Gondry's beloved sci-fi dram-rom-com Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. And for the discussion, we brought someone unforgettable -- poet, host of the Ku-Popup Open Art Showcase, and romantic lead to cohost Helen -- Angel Kofsky! Check out the Ku-Popup Open Mic and Art Showcase, Thursdays at 8pm ET on Angel's and/or in their .

Untamed Heart
Falling in Love Montage
For Valerie's ~b i r t h m o n t h~ we are covering the maybe universally beloved but also possibly largely unknown (?? we don't know!) romantic drama classic (???) Untamed Heart. We have a great time talking about this '90s gem that's a little bit urban Nicholas Sparks, a little bit Moulin Rouge/Tarzan/Splash, and all schmaltzy Christian Slater Nature Boy, all the time.
