A Toast to Horror

Get comfortable under the nearest table and listen up to our newest episode on Parasite, the 2019 phenomenon directed and written by Bong Joon Ho. This movie may be a loose interpretation of horror, but there are definitely some scarily bad characters in it. Maybe the saying shouldn't be "liar, liar, pants on fire" but, "don't lie or else you'll get stabbed." Get ready for some lessons on karma......

Welcome back listeners! Listen up as we dive into a totally new format! Gone are romance and happily ever afters! In are monsters and jump scares! We are starting with The Exorcist, a well-known classic that most lists place as the scariest movie of all time. But is it?? Join us as we talk just how much therapy Regan will need and if any foolish mistakes were made. Paired with an Exorcist cocktail...

Listen up as we talk about the lesser known Reese Witherspoon rom com, How Do You Know. Opinions are split as we discuss what this star-studded cast brings to the table. We remain a united front on one item: Paul Rudd is delightfully awkward and, as always, the highlight of the movie. We drink Bloody Mary's and discuss A Court of Thorn and Roses AGAIN in our latest episode. Rate! Review! Follow! E...

We continue with our Reese Witherspoon rom com theme with this week's movie, Sweet Home Alabama. This movie is a doozy. We talked about lots of things...besides the actual movie itself. Listen up and see if you agree with us! Paired with Alabama Slammers. RIP Fred Ward. Rate! Review! Follow!

Whoever says Legally Blonde isn't a rom com classic is seriously disturbed! Get ready for us to break down this highly quotable rom com classic.

It doesn't matter if you've seen this movie once or a hundred times, Elle and Bruiser Woods never fail to cheer you up! Paired with...

Spoiler alert!!! This week Allison and Marie talk about a newer movie on Amazon Prime, Ticket to Paradise. The chemistry is off the charts between George Clooney and Julia Roberts!

SPOILER ALERT: This week we are covering Ghosted, a new movie on Apple TV. We will talk about EVERYTHING in regard to this movie; watch it before you listen. Having said that--wow. We never thought we wouldn't want to date Chris Evans, but this movie makes a case for not dating him (or at least his character in this move). Can someone say red flag?! This movie is a fresh take on an old idea. Come...

Listen up aca-bitches! We warmed up our vocal cords and harmonized over Pitch Perfect. Even though this movie may be the most unbelievable college-based rom com ever, we can't help but love it. From the riff-offs to naked duets in the shower to weird fistfights, we are here for it! Listen up as we discuss this movie and our TWO (that's right-two) cocktails: the Breakfast Club and the Pitch Perfect...

This year we glow with Pittsburgh pride as we discuss the listener voted movie, Zack and Miri Make A Porno. It was fun to switch gears and dive deep into this raunchy rom com that we paired with a Porn Star Martini. The nature of the movie brings up a lot of questions that no one has the nerve to ask! Join us as we we broach dirty language and subjects and dive through some shared horror movie tra...

He's Just Not That Into You's star-studded cast did not live up to expectations. The offensive way women and their relationships with others are portrayed immediately had us saying we are just not that into this movie! Having said that, there were a couple laugh out loud scenes and the fashion and hair is maybe the most realistic we have seen in a rom com. Paired with a He's Just Not That Into You...

Opinions are split on this week's rom com, Win a Date With Tad Hamilton. This early-aughts film does hold an element of nostalgia, but does the unrealistic writing destroy any positive components of this movie? We drink a Six Smiles cocktail (altered from the Smile cocktail) while discussing this movie's lack of a good male character and Allison talks about FINALLY delving into A Court of Thorns a...

Have we found a new rom com classic??? I think we have! This week on A Toast to Rom Coms, we talk about the underrated movie Penelope. This movie has a stacked cast and the chemistry is hot hot hot (for a PG rating). How can you go wrong when Peter Dinklage is in it (Game of Thrones for life)?

Happy New Year! We're starting off the year going over a classic, Singin' In The Rain which mirrors the weather in Pittsburgh! This movie is paired with a cocktail called Singin' in the Rain.

Follow! DM...

This week for our 2nd Christmas special, we're diving into White Christmas. Bring on the nostalgia! We broke tradition and had 2 different cocktails while we talked about this classic rom com.

Take a break from holiday family drama and listen to our latest Thanksgiving special! We delve into Son In Law with Pauly Shore, a 90s not-so-classic movie that again plays into the stereotype that all American families live on a farm.
