It’s 1994 again (we do so many movies from 1994) and Erika and Paul are talking Priscilla, Queen of the Desert! The film somehow leads Erika to say casting Liza Minnelli in Cabaret was a mistake and Paul has to explain ping-pong shows. It’s business as usual is what we’re saying.

Paul and Erika dive into the 1986 Jim Henson classic Labyrinth, starring David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly!

Listeners, the year is 1991, the movie is the Sally Field/Kevin Kline comedy Soapdish and the disappointment in the That Aged Well studio is palpable. But don’t dwell on that!
