  • 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!

  • The Scream I Scrumpt When I Saw The Title Drop Dead Fred

    I really enjoy this podcast. two very relatable ladies talking about the relatable stuff in otherwise ignored or minimized movies. I haven’t seen even half of them, but it is interesting to hear about the ones I’m not familiar with and extra fun when it’s a movie I have seen and actually enjoy.

  • HITS ALL THE HIGH NOTES

    Such a solid podcast. Well-researched, comforting, nostalgic and genuine. Both BJ and Harmony offer extremely intelligent perspectives and analyses on seemingly juvenile subject matter. I learn so much about pop culture, history, film and even like economics lol. So grateful for them and this show!

My Neighbor Totoro (1988)

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.
Can't Hardly Wait (1998) w/ Niko Stratis!
Q: What is it about this one that made you want to discuss it?
Partly it's the soundtrack because to me, I remember seeing this movie when it came out and its lasting influence in my life has been the soundtrack, which is incredible.
Can't Hardly Wait (1998) w/ Niko Stratis!
Q: Niko, how do you feel about this character?
It's like he is a wide-eyed dreamer who believes in fate and thinks that the fact that he has just like, lusted slash stalked a woman from afar for multiple years is what love is.
