  • Makes me look forward to Monday mornings

    There is no better way to start the week than with Paul and Erika’s intelligence, insight, and humor. The only downside to this podcast is that the hosts shake my belief that I am too smart to develop parasocial relationships. Paul and Erika, you are the reason I finally got around to watching Sunset Boulevard, so let me return the favor by suggesting another classic that I think you’ll enjoy, based on your Beverly Hills Cop episode: the clip for Serge’s Survival Boutique. Thank you for putting ... more

  • No notes!

    Found this pod a few weeks ago and now my wife and I are both fully hooked — I’m officially a Benjamin Franklin Rodriguez Patreon member. Send help (don’t, actually, I’m having too much fun). Still got a mountain of back catalog to dig through, so no recommendations yet, but the commute has never been funnier. Wouldn’t change a single thing. Keep cooking, guys

  • Amazing! No notes!

    The movies recap are many times better than the movies themselves. Erika and Paul are witty and hilarious. And they open my mind to many sensitive issues like representations. Keep the great work!

  • Hey, how about…

    First, I lovelovelove this podcast, which has caused me to laughspit toothpaste when I listened to it while getting ready for work. Anyway, even though it’s before the 90s, one picture you might want to consider is the teen summer camp “comedy” Little Darlings, in which campers Kristy MacNichol and Tatum O’Neal compete to see who can lose their virginities first. Spoiler alert: this film has not aged well. Great podcast, you all!!
