This episode is unfortunately riddled with more audio issues than usual AND we forgot to introduce ourselves so if we suddenly sound different after the intro it's totally not because we stole the intro from our Past Lives episode...but if you do make it through this episode, you're a real one! Check us out on... Instagram: @manilovefilmpod TikTok: @manilovefilmpod Letterboxd: @chelcoyazo // @izzytheratqueen
