    Hello again, after quite a hiatus! Emily couldn't resist gleaning Rachael's thoughts on the modern masterpiece and timeless love story, Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019), brought to us by writer/director Celine Sciamma, with a cast including Adèle Haenel, Noémie Merlant, Luàna Bajrami, and Valeria Golino. Happy Valentine's Day, passengers!

    Kristen, Emily and Rachael were on ground zero during the Twilight phenomenon of the mid-to-late aughts. Join us on this meandering foray into the first of the Twilight movies saga!

  • Mamma Mia and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
    Aug 31 2024

    Howdy, passengers! 'Tis the season for Mamma Mia and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants! This episode was a lot of fun to record, in good part because Rachael doesn't like musicals (but does like ABBA). We try to decide which of the Pants girls each one of us is, and go down a Gilmore Girls rabbit hole. Fasten your seatbelts! We hope you enjoy this as much as Meryl seemed to enjoy bouncing on the bed in overalls.
