CATEGORY: I DO... I THINK

This week Podstruck is launching a new collection of wedding rom-coms starting with 27 Dresses! This 2008 romantic comedy starring Katherine Heigl and James Marsden asks how a movie about terrible people can be charming and the answer is "Benny And The Jets." We pitch ways that this Aline Brosh McKenna script filled with smart dialogue could have been tightened for clearer plotting and we call out the insane moments like the gentlest car crash on earth and the the confusing racist turn that none of us were looking for. And is $20 a peek a good price for a look at Heigl's heinie? Listen on this long but goofy episode.

It’s the 20 year anniversary of She’s The Man and we inadvertently celebrate it this week, rewatching the Amanda Bynes Channing Tatum romp to cap off our Shakespeare collection. Joining us is a team of hilarious screenwriters: Monica Byrnes and Toria Sheffield. Together, we talk about changes from Twelfth Night to She's The Man, why everyone should watch The Hills, that time Elena hung out with Amanda Bynes and saw a certain pop star, and debate whether Channing Tatum smells like salami. Plus we debate whether Amanda's line deliveries are genius or deranged... or both.

This 1988 comedy banger stars Lily Tomlin and Bette Midler as twins who are switched at birth, and move over Mandy Moore cause oh baby is a it a comedic ROMP to remember! This movie is a VERY loose interpretation of Shakespeare's play The Comedy of Errors, and while it may have received terrible grades on the ol' tomatometer do not be fooled, this movie is a GEM! Join us as we talk about the iconic plaza hotel, how we still aren't sure that Kyle MacLachlan isn't in this movie and/or has a secret twin somewhere, how perfect the line "is a frog's ass water tight" is, and why Bette Midler has always been Elena's north star.
