Good morning Mademeviewers! We watched Patch Ada- I mean, Good Morning Vietnam!

Do not listen if you don't want the spoils! Interruption: none because this episode is way longer than expected *Please enjoy this explicit content responsibly*

This week! Ryan and Kayleigh celebrate their love of Cobra Kai (the show) by watching Karate Kid 2 (the movie). And while there is no Cobra Kai (the Dojo) in this movie, it was required viewing before Kayleigh could watch season 3 of Cobra Kai (the show) and gave awesome background for Miyagi (the character) and why Daniel Larusso is so serious about restarting Miyagi-Do (the Dojo) in the show. Ma...

We watched Jungle 2 Jungle! While the opening credits in papyrus font will leave you wondering, "Is this Avatar 2??" the main character (Tim Allen) and his fast-paced life in New York City quickly reminded us we're not in Pandora anymore.

This week! We watched Mighty Joe Young and we've got questions! Does Jill keep Joe away from other gorillas because she doesn't think he should be allowed to procreate?

This week! We watched a movie that is very close to Ryan's heart, Purple Rain! In this episode, Ryan discusses the significance of this film to his childhood, Kayleigh creates a punk band called Insane Denim Bathing Suit Bottom, and both hosts ask, "Can Prince vantriliquise?"

Interruption:...

This week, we traded our glass slippers for flip phones and watched A Cinderella Story!
