    Episode 41 - The Faculty

    "I leave for five minutes, and when I come back everyone's a f*****g alien." - Zeke After quite a hiatus and an absolutely BONKERS start of the school year, Andrea and Melissa got back to recording! The Faculty brings together so much 90s nostalgia and major acting talent. We might not have known at the time, but the young stars working opposite some powerhouse actors make for some amazing scenes. If you loved this body snatcher flick, you will love re-living it through this episode!

    Episode 40 - Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark

    "Stories hurt, stories heal." - Stella Nicholls If you are a Gen Xer and don't remember desperately trying to check out the Scary Stories books from the library, are you even ok??? Just kidding. Sort of. Even if the books weren't your thing, you can appreciate the shock and awe of the illustrations done by Stephen Gammell. Andrea and Melissa definitely have a long-standing relationship with the books, but had not yet seen the 2019 film. It turns out, this was a great trip through the nostalgia of the books, while enjoying them woven together in a movie! Even if you haven't seen the movie, this episode is such a fun listen for those of us that remember Alvin Schwartz's strange tapestry of folklore and horror. Remember, don't you ever laugh as the hearse goes by...….. but laugh as much as you want listening to this episode!

    Episode 39 - Twilight

    "Could you act human? Okay, I have neighbors." - Isabella Swan Picture it - a dark theater in 2008, full of ladies ready to swoon and a few drag-along audience members on an obligatory date night. Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson proceed to bring to life the Young Adult novel with the famous apple on the cover. The fact that the vampires never sleep and sparkle in the sunlight may have had you rolling your eyes but nevertheless, you are in for a treat on this episode! Andrea and Melissa did a re-watch and AWKWARDNESS ENSUED. Join us on this nostalgic ride through the forest!!

    Episode 38 - The Duff

    "Whoa, wait, you're having a party on a Wednesday? On a school night?" - Bianca Piper Designated Ugly Fat Friend......a DUFF, if you will. This teen movie took the wingman concept and spun a new definition to help label the insecurity monster we all have had to face in one way or another. While Mae Whitman is hardly ugly or fat, she has the sarcasm delivery the role of Bianca Piper needs. This movie came out in 2015 and one of your hosts had never seen it. Join Andrea and Melissa on this fun episode! We hope you have a great time laughing with us.

    Episode 37 - Almost Famous

    "I didn't ask for this role, but I'll play it. Now go do your best. Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid. Goethe said that. It's not too late for you to become a person of substance, Russell. Please get my son home safely. You know, I'm glad we spoke." - Elaine Miller Anybody else miss concerts? Summer seems to bring the itch for live music, good friends, and warm air touching your skin. We've been through a long year of concerts being on hiatus due to the pandemic. Almost Famous is a perfect movie to rekindle the love of live music. Many of us have forgotten what it was like when we were teenagers and the bands we loved just seemed to speak directly to our souls. This movie is full of amazing actors, great music, heartfelt moments, and perfect touches of humor. If you haven't seen it in awhile, or are just missing the summer concerts that made your youth worth remembering, listen in on this episode!

    Episode 36 - The Blair Witch Project

    "Witches in days gone by were roasted just like my Vienna sausage." - Heather Donahue If we told you for every $1 you invest in a movie, you will make $10, 931 - would you support that project? Hell, yes!! Unfortunately, Andrea and Melissa do not have an opportunity like that to offer. Back in 1999, the creators of The Blair Witch Project didn't have an offer like that to make either. But as time would tell, the idea for an extremely low-budget, improv-style, found footage movie paired with the first truly viral marketing campaign would land this film in the Guiness Book of World Records for "Top Budget: Box Office Ratio." Andrea and Melissa were around for the 1999 release of The Blair Witch Project and saw it together in the theater. It turned out to be just as satisfying to rewatch it now through the lens of everything we know about the facts and fiction surrounding this movie. Regardless of what your familiarity with the Blair Witch, you will never look at little dolls made from sticks in the woods the same again....

    Episode 35 - Booksmart

    "I lost my virginity in what I thought was a park but... it turned out to be a graveyard, and now the ghost spirits live inside my eggs waiting to be reborn." Gigi Cramming all the fun you should have had in high school into one night might be possible. In Olivia Wilde's Booksmart, Amy and Molly dare to make it happen. Finding out that your classmates are delightfully weird, genuinely clever, sometimes lonely, and definitely more human than you took them for, is a side-effect of trying to make up for lost time discovering the people you will graduate with. This comedy had hits and misses for Andrea and Melissa. It was, without a doubt, a fun movie to celebrate graduations everywhere after the strangest school year in recent history. Have a few laughs with us during this episode!!
