021: "I dare you to watch..."
Movie Nights at Home
This is a fun episode where we are challenging each other to watch movies we haven't seen. It’s a great game you can do with your family and friends too! What movies would you dare your friends to watch? What movies would you dare us to watch? HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS WEEK’S SHOW: To give you a visual of how this works exactly, each one of us will get a name and then we will suggest a movie for that person that they have not seen. Then throughout the week, we have to watch the movie suggested, whether together or alone, which we will then discuss in the next episode. Jake dares Kalee to...

020: Where’s Nemo?!?
Movie Nights at Home
In our previous episode, we tried to determine the best Disney movie of all time. But a couple of things happened. And so, we decided not to reveal the winner because we realized we needed to refine the category and put out some better criteria. HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS WEEK’S SHOW: Two of our listeners actually got upset that Cars and Finding Nemo were not on our list. Jake loves The Incredibles. It’s a great movie, but for him, it doesn’t make it to the list of all-time best Disney movies. Yup, we admit Finding Nemo may have been a miss on our part! What's so special about Disney is...

016: The Best & Worst Theater Experiences
Movie Nights at Home
Today, we're talking about our best and worst theater experiences. While we had our fair share of the best and most magical theater experiences, we also had quite a taste of our worst experiences – ever – which is one of the reasons we don’t want to go back to the theaters anymore and we much rather prefer doing movie nights at home.

014: Christmas Movies We Hate
Movie Nights at Home
Today, we're going to talk about Christmas movies that we “hate”...or maybe that’s too strong of a word – so let’s use…“dislike.” While we love the people who play the characters in many of these movies, sometimes some things just don’t work well together.

013: Hosting a Home Alone Movie Night
Movie Nights at Home
In this episode, we're sharing some of our favorite ideas for a classic Christmas movie. And when it’s Christmas time, all roads lead back to the McCallisters.
info_outlineWhat movie would you just watch over and over again? For Jake, it’s Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, Kim’s pick is Just Go With It, and Kalee’s is You’ve Got Mail. But today, we're going to be talking about movies that have let us down and have burned us!
HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS WEEK’S SHOW:
- The second of the Star Wars trilogy, The Last Jedi, just let Jake down. This movie had a new director and they just ruined the characterizations of most characters.
- Why we think the Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life was the worst mini-series ever!
- Kalee hates My Bestfriend’s Wedding. Why did Julia Roberts’ character made her cringe?
- Kim’s pick is Message in a Bottle. She didn’t realize Nicholas Sparks has this pattern.
- The first two releases of the The Godfather were perfect, but we didn’t like the third one. (Check out our The Godfather movie night theme as well as our recipe for Clemenza's spaghetti.)
- Why The Suicide Squad (the second one) didn’t blow Kim away. Now, Jake explains why he thinks superheroes movies should be “the weirder, the better”
- Other movies that just burned us: Hanging Up, City of Angels, Donnie Darko (why Jake thinks it’s the worst movie ever made), All About Steve, Kate and Leo’s movie reunion Revolutionary Road, and The Shape of Water.
