You are all cordially invited to the wedding of us and Maya Erskine (pending her consent) – and surprise – you’re the toast master too. We’re here to talk about Plus One, which is fresher than diner fish* .
*Fish you order at a diner, but why would you do that?!
·120· Pride & Prejudice
It is a truth universally acknowledged that two women in possession of a chick flick podcast must eventually cover 2005’s Pride & Prejudice. Fan favorite and Jane Austen correspondent Tracy Tanoff joins us for truly the most exemplary podcast she’s guested on in in many years.

·119· Thelma & Louise
To start 2023 off on the right route, we wanted to talk about best friends with a best friend. So we brought FiLM fave Malcolm Nygard on to fan-girl out with us over the ultimate road trip movie, Thelma & Louise.
Check out Malcolm’s thoughtful Letterboxd at https://letterboxd.com/theoscargrouch/ and see if you can spy a chick flick or two in his top ten.
Thelma & Louise is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video, and geez, Louise, do we ever recommend you watch it.
·118· Falling For Christmas
It’s what you were all hoping for, I’ll keep telling myself — for the holiday season, and to close out 2022, we covered a new Christmas classic, Falling for Christmas, starring Lindsay Lohan. We not only talked about it, but we also watched it! And if you don’t listen and enjoy, magic Santa will push you down a mountain.
We’ll be back next year with not this movie. Happy New Year, FiLM buffs!
And for no particular reason, here’s Ben @palmertrolls on Candace Cameron Bure.
·117· Never Been Kissed
It’s November for a few more hours, and we are thankful to be here with you, talking about another problematic (!) fave (?), 1999’s Never Been Kissed. We shouldn’t say this because we’re your teacher hosts, but it’s totally rufus.
Sorry in advance for Helen’s questionable audio — she was recording on an iPhone from a frilly pink bedroom in South Georgia.
Happy N[e]vember Been Kissed! Nailed it.
·116· Hocus Pocus 2
Years ago, a pair of sisters came together on Halloween to talk about Hocus Pocus. We thought the story ended there. We were wrong.
Those lovable sisters are back, making magic, once again, because Disney dug up the past with Hocus Pocus 2, and like a bajilliondy people watched it, and we figured, One Way or Another, we could get some easy spooky-month downloads. Itchita kupita melaka mystika.
Hocus Pocus 2 is currently streaming on Disney+.
