Episode description
It's amore over on Nathan Rabin's Happy Cast, as Nathan and Clint light some candles, put on some slow jams, and suffer through some of the hokiest, most hackneyed romantic media the world has to offer! We break down the mysterious appeal of the kink-confused Fifty Shades film franchise, show we're not 'fraid of no ghosts with the bizarre Nicholas Sparks adaptation Safe Haven, and discuss the complicated sex life of the former Mrs. Li'L Wayne, Karrine "Superhead" Steffans in her memoir, How to Make Love to a Martian. (Don't forget to contribute to my GoFundMe to help pay for my Weird Al touring expenses, and let us know if you want to see a live episode of Happy Cast in Chicago while I'm there!) 4:04 - Scalding Hot Takes/Lukewarm Takes: Fifty Shades of Grey/Fifty Shades Freed 31:14 - Control Nathan & Clint: Safe Haven 49:29 - Literature Society: How to Make Love to a Martian by Karrine "Superhead" Steffans 1:00:20 - Mailbag 1:06:33 Happy Places Follow us on Twitter (Nathan: @nathanrabin, Clint: @alcohollywood)!
