Ep 58: Rom-Com-A-Rama - Reality Bites and Crazy, Stupid Love

It’s Nancy’s birthday and she gets total pick of the movie genre this episode. With Rom-Coms being her favorite feel good movies, Matthew, being the nice brother, concedes to her wishes.

Is Realty Bites a Rom-Com or post college crisis? Are Ryan Gosling’s abs photoshopped and do we care? Will Ethan Hawke wash his hair? These are the burning questions we dance around possibly answering as we have a fun time talking about Reality Bites (1994) and Crazy, Stupid Love (2011).

Episode 57: The Social Network with special guests Zach and Hayley from Laughing At Ourselves @uslaughingatus

Social media is a phenomenal thing. It’s shaped so much of how we navigate our day to day lives.  Regardless if we sign up for Twitter, Instagram or Facebook, we can’t escape the influence it’s had.  We recently made new friends, Zach and Hayley, fellow sibling movie podcasters, and asked them to join us in a discussion of David Fincher’s 2010 “The Social Network,” an exploration of how Facebook came to be, and how Mark Zuckerberg trashed real in person friendships to make 500 million friends online.  Please listen to our fun discussion.
