This week, Em joins me to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Halloween classic, Hocus Pocus! We talk about childhood Halloween rituals, Mae West, and those darn kids. Also - I know the audio quality is not ideal on this episode! I'm having some issues with my recording equipment which I promise will be sorted out soon, but I think the audio quality is good enough and I love the conversation Em and I have about this movie, so I think it's worth posting and worth listening to - I hope you enjoy, and thanks so much for your patience as I troubleshoot the issue.
Next episode: Monday, October 22, 2018 - Em joins me to talk about Halloween, which celebrates it's 40th anniversary just ahead of the much-anticipated sequel this year!

This week, Sami and Bryan join me and Trystan for this month's Marvel Monday flick, Guardians of the Galaxy, vol. 1. We talk about that gut-wrenching opening scene, when it is and is not appropriate to ask for Glen Close's hair, and, of course, Cosmo. Plus: listen to the very end for a quick interview with Sami and Bryan's son, Dez, who saw the movie with us in IMAX 3D - it's adorable!

This week, Em and I talk about the 2001 indie psychological drama, Martha Marcy May Marlene. A quick warning for those who have not seen it: this movie does depict some upsetting abuses against women which are discussed in this episode, though we touch much more of the themes and film making techniques of the movie overall more so than the graphic nature of the film.
Next episode: Monday, September 3, 2018 - Marvel Mondays returns witj Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Joining me and Trystan is special guest co-host Bryan!
