    Welcome to “Not Couple Goals” where co-hosts Allie Nelson and Tyler McCarthy do a deep dive into a different ridiculous romantic thriller from the vantage point of their long-term relationship. Allie, a TV writer/producer and actress, has an affinity for romantic thrillers, the more salacious the better. Tyler, an entertainment reporter and critic, often finds himself drawn in despite his better judgment. Join them as they explore all the ways it’s possible to love too hard… like WAY too hard. In this episode, Allie and Tyler discuss the heavily filtered 2009 thriller “A Perfect Getaway” with Steve Zahn? Join them as they discuss early Timothy Olyphant, how they would survive in the woods and a twist so stupid it made Tyler noticeably angry at the top and Allie laugh for her expert trolling skills. Will they ever recover or get lost in the weeds of this bonkers movie? Listen and find out.  Special thanks to Mallory Johns for the introduction music.
