    Note: We have a new podcast studio, which is inside our car! We frequently take a 45 minute drive to see our families, and that is when we have the most time to sit down and talk about the movies we love. So if you hear any random extra sounds, that's why!

    The Road Trip Special!

    This summer we drove up to Michigan's Upper Peninsula for a camping trip with some friends, and since we had several hours of driving, we recorded a podcast to pass the time! The sound quality is a little worse than usual, but we had a good time, and we hope you will too. Topics discussed: One Night in Miami, A Star is Born, The Office, WandaVision, and Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Happy Trails!
