Episodes

When Harry Met Sally... 27.07.2022

This is from the archive, back when we were a podcast about The Bachelor that hated the show The Bachelor. In the offseason we did this movie episode with comedian Jamal Russell. It was a really fun ep! Enjoy this throwback re-release and we'll be back with a new episode next week!

You've Got Mail w/ Martin's Mom, Rolande Phillips! 13.07.2022

That's right, our special guest is Martin's own mother! She turned out to be a wonderful guest! We go in-depth, share fun stories, have interesting facts, she really is a good podcasting! The movie is actually pretty shallow and is how capitalism always wins. Also, one of the few films where Tom Hanks plays a jerk! It was really fun and good time! Book Martin's mom for your own pod!

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 24.06.2022

We're back with a classic teen flick from the mid-2000s, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants! The pants are supposed to be magical because they fit everyone, but all the girls are pretty much the same size anyway! There are four main characters, all off on their own adventure connected by the pants! One has a love story that doesn't age well, one has a shitty dad, one has a great time in Greece,...

365 Days: This Day 25.05.2022

Here's the sequel we've waited two years for, more than 365 Days! In the first one a guy kidnaps a woman and gives her a year to fall in love with him and guess what Rom-Bros? It works!!! But remember it's a movie and not real! Now they're married and believe it or not have issues, which yes, do include an evil twin! This film is basically a porno! It's pretty graphic sometimes, no intense blowjob...

365 Days 25.05.2022

This is actually an old episode, actually our first movie ep back when we did a pod about The Bachelor, we literally just did the sequel to this movie, so here's a refresher to prepare for the new episode! 365 Days is about a man who kidnaps a woman and gives her a year to fall in love with him! It's as crazy as it sounds and it is pretty intense, practically with blowjobs! Enjoy this throwback ep...

Bonus Episode 23.05.2022

This isn't a movie, there were technical difficulties and time delays, Jenny and Martin, weren't able to review a film; instead they talked about nothing for about 30 minutes...maybe it's not nothing, it's a fun, quick ep! If you like it enough, maybe it'll be a regular thing! Here's our first mini-sode!

The Parent Trap 07.05.2022

We're back from our small break and here with a new episode! We did the Disney classic The Parent Trap (Lindsay Lohan version, of course!)! When we first saw it as kids we thought, "What a fun, cute movie!" Now as adults we realize this is absolutely terrible parenting! They literally traumatize their children! It's still a fun movie, but if you actually think about the plot it's rather concerning...

The Fault In Our Stars 24.03.2022

On this episode Jenny and Martin go over the John Green classic 'The Fault in our Stars'. It's sad and too much and weird they bring Anne Frank in it. Also, Jenny and Martin read other's eulogies and that becomes too much also! But it's a fun time! John Green kinda sucks tho

West Side Story 13.03.2022

It's a new episode, tonight, so be cool! There are two West Side Story films, so we compare both with our friend, comic, West Side Story-head, Phil Mike. We actually talk about the movie! No real tangents on this one! If you are a West Sider be sure to listen!

Marry Me 27.02.2022

Jenny and Martin actually saw a movie currently in theaters! It was a Monday matinee of the picture, Marry Me! About a guy who held a sign up at concert that read 'Marry Me' and the singer on stage did! It's with Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson, so a perfect pairing; just like this pod! The movie is actually not terrible! We go off topic a lot in this episode, but it's fun!

The Notebook 13.02.2022

Just in time for Valentine's Day, we have a very romantic film for you guys, The Notebook! We step into the Sparks-verse! Martin watched five Sparks films to prepare for this! Jenny finds all the plot holes in the movie. For the Sparks-verse it's decent, which might not be saying much, however, decide with us! Happy Valentine's Day!

10 Things I Hate About You 28.01.2022

What do you hate thing? I'm sure it's more than 10 things. We're back in person, all good and safe. We do go off topic, but remember without 10 things I hate about you there'd be no euphoria! It's a good time!

Cruel Intentions 13.01.2022

We all remember this movie, it was hot in its day, is it still hot? Did Sebastian redeem himself? Is there love here or just crappy people? We'll figure it out....also, be sure you go to your job, find out why! It's fun!

New Years Eve 05.01.2022

It's the New Year, so it's obvious we're going to do the film New Years Eve; a star studded ensemble cheesy romance from ten years ago! Yep, ten years, the years do keep on going by! We're recording on zoom because Snow and covid be everywhere, but it doesn't stop us from having a good time! We question if there's too many storylines, which ones to focus on, and go off topic and discuss controvers...

Miss Christmas 18.12.2021

We spun a wheel to figure out what Hallmark Christmas movie we were going to watch and it landed on Miss Christmas! Holly lives in Chicago and has a job where she finds the city's Christmas tree each year. When the planned tree gets damaged, she has to go to the small town of Klaus, Wisconsin based on a tip from an 8-year-old and finds the perfect tree. The family is reluctant to give it away espe...

Love Actually 15.12.2021

This is not a new episode, exactly, back when we did the bachelor pod every now and then we would review movies. Last year we did Love Actually. This is a re-release of that episode, we did with Jack Coleman. Everyone loves this movie, so enjoy this! We may not question if it' romantic or not, but most of it is; the poster guy might be debatable and the Prime Minister pursuing someone who works fo...

My Octopus Teacher 11.12.2021

This movie came out a year ago and left us wondering the same question, "Did this guy fuck that octopus?" It's about a depressed man who instead of going to therapy deep sea dives every day to see an octopus. We all wonder how his wife feels about it! Wonder it with us! Also, we spin a wheel to find out what Hallmark Christmas movie we're going to watch next episode! It's Miss Christmas!! Stay tun...

Practical Magic 29.10.2021

Back so soon? We had to drop another Halloween ep! This time it's 90s cult classic, Practical Magic. Martin found it dumb, Jenny liked it, both go off topic, but it's a fun time! Listen and maybe you'll feel the magic!

Hellraiser 22.10.2021

It's Halloween, or spooky season as some call it, so we had on our dear friend, Charlie Ross to discuss the film, Hellraiser! How is a movie about running from demons from hell romantic? Well, the whole film is about what happens when you surpass sexual pleasure, have really good d, and a woman who loves this guy so much she helps resurrect him...from the dead! It's more than you think! It was a f...

Call Me By Your Name 30.09.2021

This film is different than ones we've done before, it's kinda controversial, problematic people are in it, and is it a good love story? Probably not. It's all very sad...and boring...but we try to make it fun! It's still a good time on our pod!

Casablanca 24.08.2021

It's one of the greatest films of all time...but greatest romances? Some find the ending sad, others find it real. If they do remake call Jon Hamm! We had a fun time! Hope you enjoy!

Dirty Dancing 30.07.2021

It's kinda like grinding...there's no room for Jesus...it's for bad kids...we watched Dirty Dancing! Patrick Swayze is a heart throb, Jerry Orbach is the dude, and this is probably one of the few Jewish rom coms! It's pretty good! It's a great movie about summer love and we are in summer, so it was perfect!

Pretty Woman 09.07.2021

Join us as we discuss the classic tale of a rich guy falling in love with a prostitute....though Julia Roberts is more of a call girl. We talk about that, gerbiling, bots, and more!

Say Anything... 18.06.2021

This week we do an 80s classic, Say Anything... that may not capture as much interest now. Jenny and Martin go over movie ideas, music, and the real reason the day committed tax evasion. Also, we meet Marty Fresh. It's an unique show to say the least. 

The Kissing Booth 09.06.2021

We're back, recording from Martin's attic bedroom that feels like a sauna! We review the Netflix teen classic, The Kissing Booth, and both agree it sucks and won't work out. Kissing booths are a thing of the past. We found out Jenny's high school did something that could out do the kissing booth! It's a fun ep still! Listen when you can!
