Apocalyptic Booty Call (Movie Recap, Love and Monsters)

In this episode we recap the 2020 movie Love and Monsters staring Dylan O'Brien and Jessica Henwick. This one is a hoot. If you don't know, Courtney has a binder where she keeps tabs for every possible tragic scenario she can encounter. This particular type of apocalypse, however, did not make the binder. This movie was slapstick fun adventure with a thirsty main protagonist who may or may not get the girl at the end. Tune in to find out! Follow us on Tiktok @fictionFixation Visit our Website at...

You Can’t Fill The Holes (Movie Recap, Coyote Ugly)

You don’t get more early 2000s than the 2000 movie Coyote Ugly. There’s a small town girl with big dreams and a dude with an Australian accent and a backstory we never learn. But it’s okay because the less we know, the fewer red flags to distract us from how hot he is. Cluelessness is important for happiness, science has confirmed. What used to be Courtney’s favorite childhood movie is now, decades later, picked apart by Rose. Follow us on Tiktok @fictionFixation Visit our Website at fictionfixa...

But Jack Could’ve Totally Fit (Movie Recap, Titanic)

In this Episode we recap the infamous 1997 film Titanic. Gen Z could never understand what we went through seeing this film with our parents in our formative years. The tears, the sweaty palms, THE Leonardo DiCaprio of it all. It's insta-love in the most epic, enduring way ever. We couldn't possibly laugh at this tragic love story, could we? Psssst. Just ask Courtney and the rant that may have bought her one way ticket to the bad place. Follow us on Tiktok @fictionFixation Visit our Website at f...

The Truth Is Fugly  (Movie Recap, The Ugly Truth)

In this episode we recap the 2007 movie The Ugly Truth starring Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler. We muse about the delightfully cliches of rom coms. Rose gets roasted by Courtney via a binder of doom. And as usual we find ourselves on opposite sides of the snack cart. This episode is full of chuckles and puns. Hope you enjoy!

A Man Bun and an Accent (Movie Recap, 10 Things I Hate About You)

In this episode we recap the 90’s classic 10 Things I Hate About You, starring Julia Stiles and the late and great Heath Ledger. Courtney is once again educating us on phrases we will never utter a) with a straight face and b) in public, like ever. The real villain of the episode ends up being very close to Courtney’s heart–or rather–her chest! Don’t fight it, just roll with it. Rose finally gets the opportunity to recite the lines that have been living rent free in her brain since 1999. Follow ...

Mafia Do’s and Dont’s (Movie recap, 365 Days)

In this episode we recap the Netflix movie 365 Days, based on a Novel by the same name. We will tell you right up front, this one is filled with F-Bombs. Listen, it's a mafia romance and we apparently got too into character. With this oh so spicy movie, we have, at last, found a Red Flag Courtney isn't into. Don't worry, her aversion to our hero doesn't last long. Even Rose has trouble saying to to this fictional man and his plethora of Red Flags. Follow us on Tiktok @fictionFixation Visit our W...

Ma’am, That’s a Death Raffle (Movie Recap, The Hunger Games)

The perfect episode for a road trip. Settle in, because we are recapping The Hunger Games movie. Rose will never pass up an opportunity to talk about a Hemsworth brother. Courtney reveals her connection to the stars of the movie (and perhaps her *alleged* first kiss?). Join us for some hilarity as we unravel the insane dystopian world that honestly feels strangely familiar (is this really a news broadcast?). ___ Follow us on Tiktok @fictionFixation Visit our Website at fictionfixation.com Fictio...

Wish.com Ken Doll (Movie Recap, A Cinderella Story)

In this episode we recap the 2004 movie A Cinderella Story. Even though there's a more recent version, this gem stars Hilary Duff and features all of the early 2000s nostalgia we love. And also, there's a Wish.com Ken Doll who Rose has...quite a lot of things to say about. If you enjoyed this episode, please share with a friend and leave a review!

I Will Fake Have Your Babies (Movie recap, To All The Boys I loved Before)

In this episode we recap To All The Boys I Loved Before, a movie based on the book by Jenny Han. We enjoyed this movie for inexplicable reasons. Or maybe because it’s equal parts cute and cheesy, with a fake boyfriend that we would 1000% fake have babies with.

There Goes All My Serotonin (Movie recap, A Fault In Our Stars)

In this episode we recap The Fault In Our Stars, a movie based on the popular book by John Green. Did we cry watching this movie? A little. Did we laugh recording this episode? SO FREAKING MUCH. Too much. The amount of fun we had recording this episode is a red flag in itself. Join us on this emotional ride to hell, if you dare.

The Absolute Audacity Award Goes To… (Book Recap, Dare You To Lie by Amber Lynn Natusch)

In this episode we recap the Dare You To Lie by Amber Lynn Natusch . This book would make an awesome movie. It's full of mysteries, twists and turns, and also a bad ass female lead who we are a little afraid of. Also, Rose reveals what she discovered during one weird, internet rabbit hole.

Girl, We’re Not Done Here (Movie recap, The DUFF)

In this episode we recap The DUFF or…The Designated Ugly Fat Friend. It’s a fun movie with one of the cringiest montages we’ve ever seen.

Fifty Shades of No Thank You (Movie recap, Fifty Shades of Grey)

Do you enjoy our longer episodes? Let us know! In this episode we cover Fifty Shades of Grey, the movie. We wouldn't recommend taking a shot every time we say ‘red flag’ because you will probably pass out. The more toxic the man, the more hilarious fun we have recapping a story so...it should come as no surprise that this is our favorite episode to date.

Totally NOT Pete Davidson  (Movie recap, Set It Up)

In this episode we recap the Netflix movie Set It Up starring Zoey Deutch, Glen Powell and maaaybe Pete Davidson???? Courtney apologizes to Pete (because he’s secretly in love with her and totally listens to our podcast). Your Hosts combine forces to figure out (aka google) an alternative term for “*rooster* blocker.” As always hilarity ensues.

A Charcuterie Board of Sausages (Book recap, Paper Princess By Erin Watt)

In this episode we recap the sp!cy and often perplexing novel, Paper Princess by Erin Watt. Is it really surprising that Courtney would pick this book? Red flags are her cat nip. The whole thing is a true sausage fest and....eh, we weren’t mad at it. Are you enjoying our podcast?

Pretty Fly For A Legit Criminal  (Movie recap, Mr. Right)

In what is probably our favorite episode to date, we present our hilarious recap of the Netflix movie Mr. Right (which stars Anna Kendrick and Sam Rockwell). Mr. Right is multiple movies in one, and not a single one of them knows what’s going on. It’s so bad it’s good. An ugly baby, as Courtney would say.

Are You My Daddy? (Book recap, Seduction and Snacks by Tara Sivec)

This episode we recap the novel Seduction and Snacks by Tara Sivec. We get saucy in this one and drop a few more fbombs than we normally do-- might not be an episode for the faint of heart. Although, to be fair, the things that come out of our mouths are pretty tame compared to what's in the book! ____ | Follow us on Tiktok @fictionFixation | |Visit our Website at fictionfixation.com | Fiction fixation is a commentary podcast perfectly suited for lovers of fiction.

Mr. Darcy Is A Snack (Movie recap, Pride and Prejudice)

This episode we recap the 2005 movie adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. Right off the bat, Rose coins a phrase that she is very proud of and also hopes her mom NEVER hears. Listen...

She’s Too Pretty To Try This Hard (Movie recap, He’s All That)

This episode we recap the Netflix movie He’s All That, which is a remake of the 90s movie She’s All That.

It’s the British Accent For Me (Movie recap, After)

This episode we recap the Netflix movie After, which is an adaptation of the book by Anna Todd. Right away we can assume the book is superior to the movie, but to the surprise of no one we are easily entertained-- particularly when there is an accent involved. The red flags are everywhere so we collected them and turned them into a beautiful wreath. __ Follow us on Tiktok @fictionFixation Visit our Website at fictionfixation.com __ Fiction fixation is a commentary podcast perfectly suited for lo...

Obviously Team Edward (Book recap, Midnight Sun by Stephanie Meyers)

This episode we recap the book we didn’t know we were missing in our lives. Midnight Sun by Stephanie Meyers is Twilight from the perspective of Edward Cullen. Dark and broody is apparently both of our types, and as we simp over a hundred-year-old vampire, we temporarily retire our red-flag mascot despite evidence to the contrary.
