- TV & Film
This is a podcast where two sisters, and sometimes a guest, rewatch movies they saw when they were kids and review them. With humour, sarcasm, and random tidbits of info, this is a great listen for anyone born in the 80s, anyone who loves movies, and anyone else whose family speaks complete sections of dialogue as part of their daily conversations.

132: Well What if There is No Tomorrow? There Wasn't One Today!
Groundhog Day. The 1994 comedy-fantasy with Bill Murray and Andy McDowell. Arguably one of the (still) most quoted movies in the Brunnen household - right up there with My Cousin Vinny and A League of Their Own. This film, NOT appropriate for kids, was on all. The. Time. One of IMDb's top 250 movies of all time. But does it hold up?? Listen to our latest episode to find out what we think!
