New episode out now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Anchor, and Breaker! In a match up of two movies that could not be more different, but equally confused us, which will move on to the next round?

We only have two match ups left in this bracket challenge and this match up may have been one of the oddest ones yet. Listen now to hear our thoughts!

Two really great films, but only one advances to the next round of our 'pick your all-time favorite movie' bracket challenge. Your favorite movies are really impressing us so far, and we pick apart the specific humor of each of these films, continue our conversations about our love for Chicago (inquire within for charitable contributions you can make to our homeownership funds), and discuss the important cultural and relational considerations made in these films.

New podcast episode available now! In this episode we talk the injustices of Berger from Sex and the City (S&TC fans don’t come at me I did get his first name wrong in the pod), fun stunts and Harry Potter crossovers, feminism in the action and adventure genre, and Alec Baldwin’s anger issues. We go through strengths and weaknesses in both these films and reminisce on our own weird Vegas adventures until one movie advances to the next round in our bracket challenge!
