Moms N Movies

This week's movie covers some of our favorite things about America (BTW Happy 250th Birthday, fam): diversity, immigrants, and the ability to have cross-cultural relationships.  Jessi and Wendy unpack the cultural juggernaut of My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which launched a whole trilogy - inspiring countless works of John Corbett fanfic. We love Nia Vardalos, the creator of this trilogy, but we have...

It's a Me Time Episode with Jessi and Wendy discussing what's happening this summer and which Mom Movie we're covering next! This next run of movies is a trilogy, which means there's lots to unpack, and we'll examine it scene by scene! So hit play and listen to find out which Mom trilogy we're tackling!  Wendy Maybury has performed internationally & for thousands of people as an in-demand corp...

When we started the podcast, Steel Magnolias was a universally suggested movie - so this week we finally tackle a year in the life of Shelby, Truvy, M'Lynn, Annelle, and of course, Ouiser in Natchitoches, Louisiana.  It's quotable, it's sweet, but does it still hold up after all these years?  You can guess that Wendy, being Southern, loves this movie, but does it equally hit Jessi, who hails from...

This episode is chock full of plane nightmares and parenting judgments. I can't tell if that will make you want to listen to this episode or not, but Jessi and Wendy, as frequent travelers and parents, decide to dish on both.  If you haven't fallen into the rabbit hole of Mackenzie Shirilla like everyone else, this will make you want to check out the documentary on Netflix called "The Crash." Jess...

Wendy Maybury couldn't be more thrilled about having a Star Wars focused episode and was shocked to find out Jessi Campbell might have different feelings about the Space Cowboy movie.  Joining the podcast this week is comedian Warren B. Hall. Batman fan and father, he offers the right level of nerdy testosterone to help us talk about Mando's tough Dad skillz. Is it better for him to bring you in w...

Me Time! Next week is another Split Custody episode where we give Dads the chance to shine, and we have a special Guest joining us--- but in the meantime, it's time to talk about the fair and postpartum anger issues. Hit Play to hear this week's episode!   Wendy Maybury has performed internationally & for thousands of people as an in-demand corporate comedian. Her album “She’s Not From Around...

This week on Moms N Movies, we’re diving face-first into frosting and chaos with Mrs. Doubtfire. Our special guest is comic Daddy Pfoser. The movie that charmed generations with the idea that if Daddy really loved you he'd turn into a British nanny with a bunch of latex and stay around. We’re talking about iconic one-liners, crazy ass parenting decisions, the world’s most stressful restaurant scen...

One of the stars from Mother's Day joins the podcast to tell us about her experience on the film-- and we get way in the weeds about how make-up and hair sometimes just does a girl WRONG.  NEXT WEEK'S MOVIE is one that's been in the zeitgeist recently, and it was one of the ones we immediately knew we wanted to do-- starring the incredible Sally Field and everyone's favorite manic comedian... can...

This week, we watched Mother's Day, so you don't have to. Woof. This movie SHOULD be awesome! Julia Roberts, Goldie Hawn's daughter, Jennifer Aniston, and MIA JACKSON! I mean, the content should have been there: BUT something went oh so wrong. If this movie were a drinking game where you take a swig every time something dumb happens, you'll be sloshed 15 min in... so grab a box of wine and let's d...

Welp, we hoped you liked the Terminator 2 episode, and next week we'll tackle the most complicated of holidays... The one that's this Sunday... can you guess it? That's right? The one where if you buy anything, you spent too much money, and all she wants is a card that was put in the mail two weeks ago when no one was thinking about her special day-- AND NOW YOU MISSED IT AGAIN! I have trauma with...

This week on Moms ‘N Movies, we’re diving into Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Jessi Campbell, a LONG TIME Terminator franchise fan, and Wendy Maybury, who is just here to enjoy robots showing up in the past naked, discuss what happens when the guy who tried to kill you comes back again to be your kids bodyguard. Join us as we appreciate Robert Patrick's insane hotness in this movie, become suspicious...

So here's the deal. On Thursdays, we go over what y'all liked or didn't like about the movie we watched that week-- the one we release on Mondays. This week's, for example, was Freakier Friday. So we talk about that. AND THEN... We tell you which movie to watch this weekend, so enjoy the episode on Monday with fresh eyes! It's like a movie club of sorts if you want to play along in real time! If y...

What happens when the universe looks at Freaky Friday and says- “Let's do that again but with more people and a British accent”? This week on Moms ‘N Movies, we’re diving into Freakier Friday—the sequel nobody asked for and I guess we all needed. We get into the weeds on this movie, while also bring our own mom-life perspective—what sounds true, what made us laugh, and what made us go, “Hell no, t...
