Rene Sanchez & Max Lyonpodcasters.spotify.com
Co-Hosts and Best Bros Rene Sanchez and Max Lyon love to watch and discuss Romcoms. They are also a couple of thirty-somethings who are looking for something creative to do. So they've decided to go with the unique idea of creating a podcast! Each week Rene and Max will give their thoughts on a chosen "chick flick" and at the end, they will provide their verdict as to whether they would F***, Marry, or Kill the film! So pour a glass (or two, or three, no judgement here) of your favorite drink, cozy up with a movie, and enjoy the show!

Episode #15: Bull Durham

We here at Bromancing The Stone believe in the Romantic Comedy. The meet-cute, the break-up and inevitable reunion of the protagonists. We also believe in sports, especially baseball and its merits as a live spectator sport. We believe in "Tasty Tidbits", "The Kiss", "What Happens After Ever After" and "The Verdict". We believe in continuing to find a way to record this podcast despite a worldwide quarantine and the indefinite delay of the baseball season, and we believe that the TENS and TENS o...

Episode #14: Friends With Benefits

It's the 2nd part of our 2 part extravaganza and boy is this a doozy. It was recorded after Midnight and with a bit of liquid courage in Rene and Max's system, so it gets a bit punchy. The bros still go over the similarities between this film and the previous movie No Strings Attached, and there is even a little outtake at the end of the episode for your listening pleasure. Have fun listening to this one and remember to like, share, and subscribe/follow the podcast!

Episode #11: Leap Year

It only happens once every four years, so we better review this movie now, or else we'll have bad luck! Rene and Max have watched the 2010 film Leap Year and they go over the absolute beauty of the countryside in this movie, the completely terrible green screen backgrounds that are also in the movie, and what Rene's perfect wedding reception would look like (if you've seen the film, you may be able to guess). Plus there's "Tasty Tidbits", "The Kiss" and "What Happens After Ever After". So throw ...

Episode #10: 10 Things I Hate About You

We know that the thing you hate the most about this podcast is the you don't hate it. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all. So to reward your "non-hatred" of this podcast, we got an episode under 70 minutes long! There's still "Tasty Tidbits" and discussions about "The Kiss", and our verdicts at the end, so don't worry, nothing is lost or forgotten about... except for "What Happens After Ever After" which we totally forgot. Just know that since everyone is in high school, none ...

Look, at the end of the day if you see that the episode is almost 2 hours and you'd rather give up than try, then no episode is ever gonna be worth it.

Episode #7: How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days

Podcast yourself... you know, like "frost yourself"... Yeah, that one was a bit of a stretch.

Episode #6: Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Inside you. Insiiiiide you. How this podcast longs to be inside of you... This may be our creepiest description yet, and we apologize for it. Rene and Max review the 2008 film Forgetting Sarah Marshall and discuss the incredible comedy written in the movie, and whether the romance matches the level of the jokes. There are also "Tasty Tidbits", "What Happens After Ever After", and the final verdict as to whether we would F***, Marry, or Kill the film. Enjoy the episode and remember to like, share...

Episode #5: Notting Hill

This week's episode centers around the 1999 Romcom Notting Hill. The banter isn't as prevalent in this episode due to a major difference of opinion about the movie, but it does lead to some interesting discussions about insecurities and friendships with exes. Also, there's "Tasty Tidbits" and "What Happens After Ever After", so we're still the same podcast (with substandard audio quality) that you know and love. Enjoy the episode, and remember, we're just a podcast, standing in front of TENS and...

Episode #4: When Harry Met Sally

This week Rene and Max discuss the classic Romcom When Harry Met Sally . Along with discussing the movie itself, the bros discuss a grand romantic gesture from one of their pasts that may or may not have been "too much." There's also "Tasty Tidbits", "What Happens After Ever After", and grades given for the kiss (or kisses) in the movie. It's a fun conversation that may include a bit too hot of a mic (sorry about the heavy breathing at times). When it comes to a good time, we hope you'll have wh...

Episode #3: Just Friends

As Samantha James sings: "To forgive is divine/ so let's have a glass of wine/ and listen to the podcast / until the end of time."

Episode #1: Hitch

IT'S THE PREMIERE EPISODE! Because of this, we just want to start out by apologizing for the sound quality. The quality is okay, but we used a mic that I (Rene) had bought back in 2013 and it catches EVERYTHING in the room. Also, we're just learning how to do this and make it sound "Professional", so we hope that you are willing to join us on this journey toward a "Professional Podcast." So thanks for being one of our Tens and Tens of listeners and we hope you enjoy!
