As we get more into the holiday spirit, we pick up this Illinois based rom com and settle in for a snowy night and a nice egg nog. (But hold pack in spiking it Gam Gam!)

Martin Short in his thirties playing a ten year old and tormenting Charles Grodin? Yes please! This week Amanda and Wade are discussing the 1994 movie Clifford that has nothing to do with the big red dog. Wade talks about how this movie felt like a fever dream when he watched it as a child and... it still kind of feels like a fever dream. Amanda wishes that Clifford got his comeuppance and makes i...

Scan the static and spin the dials to hone in on our discussion of Cosmos! And no, this has nothing to do with Carl Sagan or Neil deGrasse Tyson, although this movie is about space and discovery so... I think they would approve.

Because they are great films and you should watch them. Includin...

Oh, a mighty wind's a blowing and it's probably Amanda and Wade talking about this week's movie, A Mighty Wind! This underrated Christopher Guest movie sparks many a conversation between the two hosts, but most of them revolve around the loveliness and brilliance of the inimitable Catherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy as Mitch and Mickey.

Happy one year pod-versary!  Amanda finally gets to talk about her obsession with the 1977 movie Orca which is totally not a rip off of the 1975 movie Jaws in any way shape or form because this movie features a vengeful killer whale rightfully fighting a younger Dumbledore in a mammalian fight to the death. Also Bo Derek is there looking cute and getting some facts wrong cause it's the 70s.   Cred...
