  • The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

    I definitely watched this movie when it first came out (Gilmore Girls fan checking in) and I don’t remember crying watching it, but I definitely cried listening to you two talk about it. I love the podcast and this episode was such a beautiful tribute to this movie.

  • One of my faves

    I’ve been watching/rewatching movies and listening to the episodes and I’ve been really enjoying. I didn’t watch a lot of movies growing up so a lot of these are newer to me and it’s nice to listen to these two ladies talk about their experience with the movies. Sometimes when I really dislike a movie they like it helps to get their perspective so I can at least appreciate the movie. I also think they’re both funny.

  • Mostly great

    I really like this podcast despite never having heard of a lot of the movies they cover. Their discussions are great. Harmony is fantastic- smart, funny and insightful. BJ is also very smart and funny, but can come off as a little insufferable. I don’t listen to podcasts to be yelled at or lectured by a mean, know it all. She inserts herself into every situation they talk about with a “as someone who…” I often find myself rolling my eyes, thinking “yes, of course you had this same experience. Ev... more

  • I really value this show

    This show has become a must listen and quite therapeutic. I enjoy both BJ and Harmony so much, their vibes, thoughts, their lovey connection. It doesn’t matter what movie is being discussed, wider discussions are always had and I still enjoy hanging out and listening. This has also helped me discover, rediscover and appreciate more movies. Thank you both!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

A Very Brady Sequel (1996) w/ Chelsey Weber-Smith
Q: What makes A Very Brady Sequel so compelling as a sequel?
The guests and hosts discuss how it doubles down on the franchise's tropes, expands the lore with clever cross-references to episodes, and uses the Hawaii climax to culminate a series of gags, while also embedding meaningful character moments, especially for Jan, Marcia, and the parents.
A Very Brady Sequel (1996) w/ Chelsey Weber-Smith
Q: Chelsea, your thoughts and feelings.
Chelsey expresses that the sequel is a smart, ambitious reimagining that builds on the original while embracing meta humor, with particular affection for the way it repurposes iconic Brady Bunch moments and elevates the comedy through strong writing and performances.
My Neighbor Totoro (1988)
Q: What's your history with this movie?
I think I haven't seen it in a bit. It's been some years now since I've revisited Totoro, but I'm like, I think I appreciate Totoro on a deeper level.
Little Women (2019)
Q: How is the catharsis for you knowing that Jo March gets the ending that everyone apparently wanted her to have forever?
For me, it really does hit. I think that it is the ending that I've always wanted Jo to have.
Can't Hardly Wait (1998) w/ Niko Stratis!
Q: What do you think of Amanda as a character?
She kind of doesn't really have a lot to do and is mostly an object of affection that has moved throughout the movie.
