Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

These 80s Movies Traumatized Us
Q: Do you think that there was something different about the 80s movies or is this just something that kind of happens in childhood with certain movies?
I think that there's something special and specific about 80s movies because there wasn't so many hang ups about, you know, oh, we can't do this because it'll be too X for this particular viewing demographic.
The NeverEnding Story
Q: What do you think the film is saying about grief and dreams?
I think it has positive things to say in regards to how you can deal with grief and still stay true to yourself and still find yourself and still get through it.
The NeverEnding Story
Q: So how does it hold up for you?
I think it holds up really well. Like you said, I watched it last night and I was still... And it had been actually several years.
The NeverEnding Story
Q: Is it a fairly accurate, like a fairly faithful adaptation or?
It's literally like the first half of the book and I can't remember how faithful it was.
The NeverEnding Story
Q: So I first want to know, Paula, and since you read the book too, but do you have any childhood memories of watching the film?
I actually didn't read the book till I was an adult. I watched this movie, I was probably about 10.
