HAPPY SPRINGERTON! What a time to be ALIVE, recapping Bridgerton with you all as we eagerly await Season 3! Get your tissues ready, because there will be plenty of Polin in the air! As usual, we struggle with brevity, so indulge us as we give you a little background info on Bridgerton, S1, compare it against the book, and make inappropriate jokes about the Regency era in between.

Welcome back to the next installment of the Sis Flicks Podcast as we close out Women's History Month with this Greta Gerwig staple - Little Women, released in 2019, as a fresh 21st century take on Louisa May Alcott's classic coming-of-age novel. We bounce around between different topics, characters, and trains of thought as we try out a slightly new discussion format (LOOSE). Hopefully you can understand (between the mountains of tangents) why we loved this movie and how it still resonates with ...

One Day. Two People. Two Parts. Friends, we have taken a deep dive back into this heartbreaking romantic movie and book in preparation for the release of One Day (2024), the MINI SERIES, airing on Netflix February 8th.

Friends! Welcome to our first movie "recap" (we all know what this is) episode of 2024! We discuss Brown Sugar (2002), the nostalgia of 90's and 2000's hip-hop, and the beauty of Taye Diggs for... a very long time. But it's a one-parter, aren't you proud?! Join us as we cover Brown Sugar with the mainstream flowers it deserves and rarely gets, and as we make fun of the sheer number of hip-hop metaphors that tie this entire movie together.

Happy Holidays, pals! Thank you so much for tuning in to our last movie discussion of 2023. Listeners have spoken, and y'all spoke LOUDLY in favor of The Holiday (and for good reason)!
