Oops, it has been a year... Maybe some of you still keep up with this feed? We're back, and it's October, so what better way to celebrate than with a Doctober episode!

Look at us! You didn't know if we'd follow through, huh? Well, we did, and we're discussing an absolutely absurd Hallmark Christmas movie this week. It's got everything you need in a Christmas movie: problematic elements, weird/inaccurate science, questionable medical ethics, and a bunch of horned up moms! The list goes on, but we've got some Sun-er...some Hallmark-Christmas-dancing to do, so let's get to it!The Most Colorful Time of the Year - (04:52)The song used during the end sign off is called "Home for the Holidays" and can be found here!You can follow us on Twitter here!

It's time for a Christmas episode again! Just one movie again this go around, but maybe we'll do a bonus episode next month. Christmas in the Clouds is a Christmassy, screwball comedy! We dig deep into all the tropes of Hallmark Christmas movies as well, and if you stick around until the end you can hear a festive treat: "Christmas at the Laundromat." It's for sure the dumbest sign off we've ever done. Grab those snickerdoodles out of the oven, and slurp up that nog because it's time to Sundance around the Christmas tree!

Something's cooking in the oven! We can smell it. Could it be turkey? No, that's not it. It smells like family dysfunction, terrible people, and misogyny! Oh, boy! We have a nice, warm, feel good Thanksgiving movie for you this week--absolutely perfect for the family gathering...if your family happens to be a raging dumpster fire, that is! This episode is a little shorter than usual so that Jessica doesn't have to spend an entire week editing and can instead have time to contemplate her year and life choices during the holiday season. Alright, unbutton those top buttons on your pants and get ready for the turkey sweats because it's time to Sundance!The Vicious Kind - (03:25)Song in the film that was mentioned - “Welcome Home, Son” by Radical FaceSong clip in the sign off at the end of the podcast - “A Little Bit of Everything” by Dawes Follow us on Twitter here!

What's this?!?! A new episode! We're transitioning into deeper holiday and festive vibes, but since it's not quite Christmas and Halloween just ended, we chose a couple of films that have that spooky, eerie tone (disturbing even) and another that is warm and involves pies! Just don't try to understand it...these films feel a little bit autumnal with a dash of Christmas throw in, and that's all we really need, ok? So preheat those ovens and grab your freshly forged battle axes because it's time to Sundance! Waitress - (02:39)Mandy - (26:21)The Nightmare Before Christmas - (42:43)Follow us on Twitter here! and individually here: Jessica, Dillon

It's time for another episode! We're talking about a tense thriller, a very entertaining documentary, and a film about some dudes just having fun...or are they? We get a tad unhinged while discussing Watcher and Miss Americana. Look, it's hard not to analyze in depth both Taylor Swift and the different struggles of women, ok? They both inspire a lot of conversation, and we just have a lot of feelings! So limber up, tune those guitars, and let's Sundance!Watcher - (07:17)Miss Americana - (27:40)Magic Mike - (52:57)Follow us on Twitter here! And individually! Jessica, Dillon

Been a while! Summer is finally over, and our recording "studio" is habitable again. We're back to talk about a personal favorite from 2020, something a little spooky, and a biopic that is maybe too conventional? We made a new friend. He's....imaginary, but he says we should all Sundance now.Dinner in America - (05:34)Donnie Darko - (21:21)Elvis - (40:56)You can follow us on Twitter here!

Another episode in the can, and we're a little weird during this one....ok, more than normal. We discuss one crushing drama with 99 Homes, and then we try to lighten things up a bit with some dumb comedy in Ass Backwards (great title). Does A.I. Artificial Intelligence deliver the same emotional high that Jessica has been chasing for years since seeing Bicentennial Man? Who knows! Well, you'll know after you've finished listening to this. So throw your pageant dresses into your space cars...what's that? You've lost your keys to the future? Well, we saved you a seat in our space car because it's time to get weird, and by that we mean slightly unhinged!

Oh, hello. It's been 84 years.... Glad to see you haven't completely given up on this podcast. Honestly, how long did you think this pod would go without covering Titanic? It was only a matter of time. We also discuss a sci-fi drama called The Discovery and a very strange dark comedy called Freeway. Do you smell that? It smells like fresh paint....and the open ocean.Follow us on Twitter here! And individually: JessThanZero_ and DillonGonzales2

It's go time. This week we discuss three movies that you may have heard of...or maybe not. One is nuanced and layered. While another is good for the Thanksgiving holiday, but wait, is that turkey even real? Or is it some sort of program or code that makes your brain THINK it's that juicy? Am I even real?!...Whoa. Which movie is which? Well, you'll just have to find out for yourself! So free your mind....you think that's air you're breathing?Follow us on Twitter here!

It's our Christmas spectacular episode! Hooray! We're dropping this present off a little early this week to bring you more merriment for your holidays.

We're still here! Here's an extra episode in the meantime while we're gearing up for some sort of comeback. That's right we'll be back and the same as ever!

The film premiered at the festival in 2020 and stars Winston Duke, Bill Skarsgard, Zazie Beetz, Tony Hale, and Benedict Wong. Enjoy!Follow us on Twitter here!

Wow, it's our 20th episode! Sorry this one is a bit of a downer. We would have planned some sort of party if we would have remembered. This week we discuss the frustrations of drugs and addiction with Four Good Days, and we talk about narcissists and how they're the woooooorrrrrrsssst in The Squid and the Whale. Plus, we talk about the mindless thriller, Escape Room, so if you want to shut off your brain and make fun of some people now's your time to shine! Maybe make sure the escape rooms you go to aren't invitational only by way of mail? And just....do a little more research, ok?

Has it been two weeks already? Back at it again! This week we're getting deep into our feelings while discussing the beautiful and much needed film CODA and the quiet drama Paddleton.

This week we're discussing the near perfect film, Little Miss Sunshine, and we're looking into a doc that explores a music festival that has been largely forgotten, unfortunately, until now with Summer of Soul. Plus, we talk about a laid back film with Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused. So grab a bud and settle in for a far out and groovy time. Follow us on Twitter here!

Sweet! It's a new week and a new episode of the podcast! Jessica explains why food movies are so magical during a discussion of Big Night, and we take a stroll down memory lane with Napoleon Dynamite. Plus, a documentary that was maybe less tubular and more of a wipeout.

It's here. It's now. This week we discuss a film that proves rom-coms can still work with Juliet, Naked. You just have to make them a little indie!

Plus, we talk about the ridiculous uniforms they made women wear in the Women's Baseball League in the perfect movie, A League of Their Own.

That's right, we're talking about The 4th. Plus, we watched quite possibly one of the best coming of age films ever made: Now and Then. Jessica's got that summer time, summer time sadness, so get in losers, we're going Sundancing. Follow us on Twitter here!

Summer time and the livin's easy...well, except in Jessica's case. This week we visit the perilous world of water parks again with The Way Way Back, and we see just how much one human leg can change a person's life in the documentary, Finders Keepers. Plus, adolescence is already hard enough. What about when you and your peers happen to be spontaneously exploding? That's right it's the aptly named film, Spontaneous! We also have a top five countdown of our favorite Toni Collette performances! So take a listen! By the way, have you checked inside your old grills lately?Follow us on Twitter here!

Another Carey Mulligan Sundance movie?! That's right! Because we can!

Don't worry if you're fresh out of butter. We've got plenty to spare!Follow us on Twitter here!

Are your hands properly chalked? This week we get into some vulgarity with a dash of free-spirited, angst. Jessica admits that she just kind of likes Hope Ann Greggory....and she's ok with that. We might be the only people who watched The Bronze not solely to see Sebastian Stan's butt. We also talk about how Amy Poehler showed a lot of growth in directing since Wine Country, hooray! So let's hop on those uneven bars. We're gonna stick this landing. Follow us on Twitter here!

Ok, so Jessica accidentally called Katie by the name of Kate like two times during TM vs TM section. Sorry. There's a lot to remember in three movies, ok?! The good news is a whole bunch of other stuff is remembered from all three of the movies! We're just two humans making a podcast like normal humans do....nothing strange here.Follow us on Twitter

I feel the need--the need for speed! Wait...that's not right...Everybody! There is a bomb on this bus! That's it. Today we talk about the spectacular filmmaking in The Father and Once, a movie that shows yet again just why music is so important to us all. Plus, a little '90s gem you may know of called Speed. Sandra Bullock was launched via high speed bus off a bridge and straight into our hearts forever. Pop quiz, hot shot, you have a new podcast episode with two dorks talking about three dope movies....what do you do? What do you do?!Follow us on Twitter here

We're Cleopatra comin' at ya with a sci-fi drama that's maybe heavier on the drama than sci-fi and a film about how music connects us, but hey, William H. Macy, why don't you just stay out of your own movies! --signed, Dillon. We also talk about how magical 2D animation is with the film Wolfwalkers, so scrounge up some town tasties and let's get to it!Follow us on Twitter

You thought this was over? Nah, not even. Who doesn't love a good coming of age tale, but does The Kings of Summer scratch that itch? We also discuss how Adam (2009) maybe tried too hard to be uncomplicated. Just do yourself a favor and keep your expectations low for Thunder Force when you decide to watch it. And just what do they use for those raw chicken scenes anyway? Some sort of gummy candy?Follow us on Twitter

One, two, three, faw!!! Here we are again with a mini Beatles history session and a moving story about a Korean family starting a farm in Arkansas. Plus, Jessica's first time watching Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood all the way through, and Dillon barely had any memory of it anyway, so it's just like starting over! There might be a top five list included in there somewhere too, so light every candle you own in one small room and let's ya-ya!Follow us on Twitter

Today Dillon and Jessica go over their picks for The Oscars this year and why maybe you should just listen to your heart. So shhh...what does your heart tell you?Follow us on Twitter

We're back with a journey through the New Zealand bush and a look at a solid directorial debut by Emerald Fennell. Plus, we get into how the sitcom gags in Lola Versus should maybe just stay in sitcoms. So grab your spit coffees, tip your baristas, and let's get to it!Follow us on Twitter
