Nothing is as big as your first love, and no movie captures the realness of it like 2005's Little Manhattan. Starring Josh Hutcherson, Bradley Whitford, and Cynthia Nixon, this movie had a huge impact on AJ, but it was Trevor's first viewing. In this episode, we explore the movie's merits, complain about Josh's scream-crying, and talk about whether or not it still holds up.

Eddie...what were you thinking? Trevor and AJ tackle the 2003 "comedy," Daddy Day Care. Full of toilet humor, gender norm stereotyping, and a few surprising silver linings, Daddy Day Care was quite the experience to revisit.  Plus, we check in on where the cast is now – including one of the Fanning sisters! – and talk about how this could be made into an actually good movie in 2020.
