This week we are joined by special guest Stephanie Beatriz (Man On The Inside, Brooklyn 99, Encanto, In The Heights) to cover a Christmas classic, "Love Actually". Join us as we discuss Alan Rickman as a love interest, and whether you'd get down with Snape or nah, Keira Knightley's creepy love triangle and how we romanticized stalking in the aughts, and why Colin Firth can always GET IT. And of course we dive fully into Hugh Grant's storyline with his not so subtly Monica Lewinsky coded love int...

This week we "go troppo" for the 2023 rom com hit, Anyone But You starring Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell. Special guest Alex Levy joins the pod as we dig into whether butter should be cut from the middle of the pat, how grilled cheese sandwich making IS foreplay, and why you CANNOT get chlamydia from a koala. Fascinating stuff. Also romantic comedy fave, Dermot Mulroney, graces us with his presence in this movie and this may or may not cause Elena to go into an existential spiral about aging. I...

Is Richard Gere hot or not? And did this movie in fact need MORE close ups of his nipples? OR more close up magic? Is Julia Roberts believable as a call girl?

Is blackmail the answer to getting a green card AND love?! Podstruck kicks off another rom-com trope category with The Proposal, the Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds romantic comedy that is both charming and a tad racist. Elena Crevello and Chelsea Davison are joined by Margaret Kaminski to argue over the movie's fashion, why birds are a REAL threat to society, and whether the actors have any chemistry.

For a special and spooooky Halloween episode of Podstruck, we rewatch the 90s cult classic Practical Magic and debate whether it fits the typical rom com structure, whether all women are inherently magical, whether Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman have ever looked better, and if male critics gave this movie an unfair grade or if sexism in Hollywood is to blame.

Chelsea Davison and Elena Crevello rewatch the Nora Ephron 1998 classic, You've Got Mail, gushing over how cute Meg Ryan is while asking: is Tom Hanks actually attractive? We talk about what makes a New Yorker (spoiler alert: it involves direct human to rat contact), the evolution of online dating, and how we've all lost the art of pondering.

In our inaugural Podstruck episode we dig into the 1995 rom-com classic, While You Were Sleeping, and swoon over Sandra Bullock's oversized grandpa sweaters and Bill Pullman's hot dad energy. We talk about why the subway is NOT a place to find love, why "Baskin Robbins" is not a flavor, and why we miss seeing real teeth on the big screen!
