Laci and Matt go through True Lies (1994), James Cameron's "normal" movie. The most expensive movie ever made at the time of its production. It could've just been a straightforward spy thriller, but instead Cameron and Arnold Schwarzenegger decided to put in every action movie idea they'd ever had. And the results are glorious. Well, okay, the movie goes on for one act too long, and Jamie Lee Curtis steals the show and is then shown the door. But it's fun as heck, is what we're saying.  Next week: Our Oscars previews begin, as we talk about every movie nominated for a major award.

Laci and Matt pay a visit to Championship Vinyl to hang out with Rob, Barry, Dick, Laura, Ian, Marie de Salle, and all the fine folks in the music scene of that windy city we like to call Chi-Town. That's right, it's High Fidelity (2000)! It's a great music movie. It's an even greater romantic comedy. In fact, it's kind of an anti-romantic comedy, because the lesson in the end is: The most romantic thing in life is being a grown-up.  Plus: Our top-five songs we want played at our funerals, AND fierce debate about whether DJs are musicians and if a singer's vocal chords count as an instrument.

Laci and Matt dive deep into When Harry Met Sally (1989), one of the all-time great romantic comedies. In a movie that could easily be dismissed as a clone of Woody Allen's early rom-coms, the film makes its mark with two superstar lead performances from Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal, an electric script by Nora Ephron, and breezy, hilarious direction from Rob Reiner. We tell the story of how this movie came together, how it evolved during development, and how it became the classic we all know today. Then, your favorite husband-and-wife podcasting duo have a lengthy discussion about the movie itself, and folks, there are some heated battle-of-the-sexes arguments in this one. Because men do be like this, while women do be doing woman stuff, like makeup. Will they ever learn to get along???

Roseanne Barr is now known as a reactionary cancel-culture warrior, but she was once a beloved comedian and champion of working-class politics. What exactly happened? And, in the middle of her rocketship ride to the moon of superstardom, she co-starred in a movie with Meryl Streep! What?! And the movie is really good???? Laci and Matt tell the story of She-Devil (1989), director Susan Seidelman's black comedy that pits Barr against Streep and Ed Begley Jr., with Barr as an avenging angel for neglected and forgotten women everywhere. It's a very funny and poignant comedy that critics largely dismissed at the time. Especially British critics, who compared it unfavorably to the 1986 BBC miniseries adaptation of The Life and Loves of a She-Devil. That's right, this all starts with a seminal work of feminist literature by author Fay Weldon. We also tell that story, including her 2017 legacy sequel to She-Devil and her sad eventual evolution into a TERF. Then, we dive into She-Devil the film, heaping endless praise of Meryl Streep's hilarious physical comedy, Ed Begley's smarmy nice-guy evilness, and Roseanne's up-and-down performance in her first film role.  Next week's episode (Feb. 13, 2026): When Harry Met Sally... (1989) Time stamps: 00:03:00 — History segment: Original She-Devil author Fay Weldon, an important British feminist writer, and her later unfortunate turn toward TERFdom; director Susan Seidelman's career and experience working with Meryl Streep and Roseanne Barr; career overview of Roseanne Barr, from early working-class comedy roots to sad turn toward reactionary pro-Trump politics and cancel culture warriordom  00:52:06 — Movie discussion 01:58:07 — Final thoughts & star ratings   Sources: "Fay Weldon: 'Feminism was a success, but then you lose a generation'" by Claire Armistead | The Guardian (2017) - https://bit.ly/4kfFIAx  "She-Devil returns: Fay Weldon writing 'transgender' sequel to feminist classic" by Sian Cain | The Guardian (2016) - https://bit.ly/3YVLiOt    "Transgender people become women for 'fashion or clothes', says novelist Fay Weldon" by Niamh McIntyre | The Independent (2017) - https://bit.ly/4qzcL4D  "Fay Weldon: transgender people become women for 'frivolous' reasons such as 'fashion' and 'clothes'" by Rozina Sabur & Olivia Rudgard | The Telegraph (2017) - https://bit.ly/4k2zOSW    "Desperately Seeking Something: A Memoir About Movies, Mothers, and Material Girls" by Susan Seidelman | https://amzn.to/4a3C6ww  "Roseanne: My Life As a Woman" by Roseanne Barr | https://amzn.to/4roXRya  Review of She-Devil by Roger Ebert | The Chicago Sun-Times (1989) - https://bit.ly/4k3EtnT    Artwork by Laci Roth.   Check out Laci's coloring videos on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kKLhWb2g0bKA-RrvvLh0Q/  Matt has a monthly spin-off podcast covering the James Bond films!

In this episode, we sit down with Laci Davis and Natalie Hood from The Grit Game, one of the fastest-rising rep groups in the pool and spa industry. They break down who they are, how the company was born out of a desire to empower potential, and why being “the new kids on the block” is actually their biggest advantage. Laci lays out how their team—stacked with industry veterans from the Big Three, distribution, Aquastar, PHTA and more—was intentionally built to rethink what a modern rep firm should look like: faster, more transparent, more collaborative, and relentlessly committed to dealer and manufacturer success.From there, the conversation shifts into what truly separates The Grit Game from the traditional rep model. Natalie explains how education, certification, and content creation have become core pillars of their approach, while Laci digs into their digital strategy and the partnerships they've built with both traditional manufacturers and emerging companies. They talk culture, growth, and the movement they're trying to create—one that treats reps as allies, not order takers, and reshapes how the industry thinks about sales, service, and brand building.Send us a textPAL LightingLight up the night with PAL Lighting's innovative LED pool lighting and water feature products.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

We often say it's a miracle any movie gets made, but some movies are actual miracles. Groundhog Day (1993) is a perfect example of this, because its three primary creative voices (director Harold Ramis, writer Danny Rubin, and star Bill Murray) were each pulling in different, conflicting directions throughout the movie's production. Somehow, all that dissension led to a perfect object of a film, a hilarious comedy that gets at huge philosophical questions, but not in an annoying way. And it's also a sweet and lovely little romantic comedy... so why did it ruin the decades-long friendship between Ramis and Murray? Plus: Learn all about actual Groundhog Day!    Time stamps: 00:02:40 — History segment: The actual Groundhog Day holiday; screenwriter Danny Rubin writes Groundhog Day on spec and then re-lives his movie for the rest of his life; the intertwining careers of Bill Murray and Harold Ramis, as well as their falling out and eventual reconciliation 00:56:06 — Movie discussion 01:50:00 — Final thoughts & star ratings   Sources: "Harold Ramis Gets the Last Laugh" by Brett Martin | GQ (2009) - https://bit.ly/48T9Ddy "Comedy First: How Harold Ramis's movies have stayed funny for twenty-five years" by Tad Friend | New Yorker (2004) - https://bit.ly/3NcSfIc "Going Back to 'Groundhog Day.'

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Medieval Merriment: A Knight's Tale at Dinner Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-01-19-08-38-20-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A vasárnap estéje hideg volt, a decemberi hó még az utcákon pihent, ahogyan László és Katalin beléptek a középkori témájú étterembe.En: The Sunday evening was cold, and the December snow still rested on the streets as László and Katalin entered the medieval-themed restaurant.Hu: A levegő tele volt sült húsok illatával és a tűz pattogásával, ami barátságosan köszöntötte az érkezőket.En: The air was filled with the scent of roasted meats and the crackling of a fire, warmly welcoming the newcomers.Hu: A terem egy nagy középkori csarnok benyomását keltette: hosszú faasztalok, gyertyák és fáklyák fénye, valamint színes falikárpitok díszítették a falakat.En: The room gave the impression of a large medieval hall: long wooden tables, the light of candles and torches, and colorful wall tapestries decorated the walls.Hu: László csillogó szemmel nézett körül.En: László looked around with sparkling eyes.Hu: Mindig is szerette a történelmet, és most végre átélhette az egyik kedvenc korszakát.En: He had always loved history, and now he could finally experience one of his favorite eras.Hu: Katalin, aki inkább gyakorlatias volt, mosolyogva figyelte László izgatottságát.En: Katalin, who was more practical, watched László's excitement with a smile.Hu: Tudta, hogy ez az este tele lesz nevetéssel.En: She knew that this evening would be filled with laughter.Hu: A vacsora kezdetével a középkori előadás is megkezdődött.En: As dinner began, the medieval performance also commenced.Hu: Lászlót lenyűgözték a ruhák, a kardok fémcsillogása és a hangos nevetés, ami a teremben visszhangzott.En: László was captivated by the costumes, the gleam of the swords, and the loud laughter that echoed in the room.Hu: Egy ponton meglátott egy díszes lovagi sisakot, amit az egyik sarokba tettek ki.En: At one point, he spotted a decorative knight's helmet displayed in a corner.Hu: Nem bírta ki, hogy ne vegye fel.En: He couldn't resist putting it on.Hu: "Vigyázz, Laci, ne csinálj hülyeséget" – figyelmeztette Katalin játékosan.En: "Be careful, Laci, don't do anything silly," Katalin warned playfully.Hu: De László már a fejére húzta a sisakot.En: But László had already pulled the helmet onto his head.Hu: Az viszont valahogy megakadt.En: However, it somehow got stuck.Hu: Próbálta lehúzni, de nem sikerült.En: He tried to pull it off, but it didn't come off.Hu: „Ó, nem” - motyogta.En: "Oh, no," he mumbled.Hu: Ebben a pillanatban megjelent egy szervező, aki Lászlót összekeverte a fellépőkkel.En: At that moment, an organizer appeared, mistaking László for one of the performers.Hu: „Te jössz, vitéz!En: "You're up, knight!"Hu: ” – kiáltotta és a színpad felé terelte.En: he shouted and ushered him towards the stage.Hu: László nem mert szólni, elindult hátra, míg Katalin az asztal mögött maradt.En: László didn't dare to speak up and headed to the back, while Katalin stayed behind at the table.Hu: Alig bírta visszafojtani a nevetését, de tudta, segítenie kell.En: She could hardly contain her laughter, but she knew she had to help.Hu: Apró mozdulatokkal irányította Lászlót, mit tegyen.En: With small gestures, she directed László on what to do.Hu: Amikor eljött a sor a kardpárbajra, Katalin egy gyors tervet eszelt ki.En: When it was time for the sword duel, Katalin quickly devised a plan.Hu: Elterelte a közönség figyelmét egy nevetséges idézettel a pesti bálról, amit valódi középkori dialektusban mondott.En: She diverted the audience's attention with a ridiculous quote about a Pesti ball, recited in authentic medieval dialect.Hu: Ez elég időt adott Lászlónak, hogy felvegye a megfelelő pózt, és elkerüljön egy kétbalkezes pillanatot.En: This gave László enough time to assume the proper stance and avoid an awkward moment.Hu: A közönség tapsolt, tapsvihart zúdítva Lászlóra, aki végül sikeresen lecsúsztatta a sisakot.En: The audience applauded, showering László with applause, who finally managed to slide off the helmet successfully.Hu: Az étterem személyzete gyorsan a segítségére sietett, és a végén minden visszatért a rendes kerékvágásba.En: The restaurant staff quickly rushed to his aid, and in the end, everything returned to normal.Hu: László és Katalin mindketten nevetve ültek vissza az asztalukhoz, ahol a szereplők tapssal köszöntötték őket és ingyen desszertet kaptak jutalmul.En: László and Katalin both sat back at their table, laughing, where the performers greeted them with applause and gave them a free dessert as a reward.Hu: Ahogy ott ültek a fáklyafényben, László arra gondolt, mennyi érdekes helyzetbe kerülhet az ember, ha nem veszi magát túl komolyan.En: As they sat there in the torchlight, László thought about how many interesting situations one can find themselves in by not taking themselves too seriously.Hu: Katalin pedig ráébredt, hogy időnként, ha elengedjük a kontrollt, csodás élményeket élhetünk át.En: Katalin realized that sometimes, if we let go of control, we can experience wonderful things.Hu: Az este nevetéssel és boldogan zárult, és mindketten boldogan tértek haza az élményekkel teli kalandjukról.En: The evening ended with laughter and joy, and both happily returned home from their adventure filled with experiences.

Scott Peterson Diane Sawyer Interview analysis, revisited today.This episode examines Scott Peterson's nationally televised interview with Diane Sawyer while Laci Peterson was still missing. At the time, the case was unresolved, the search was ongoing, and Scott was publicly maintaining innocence.Rather than asking what happened to Laci, this breakdown focuses on Scott's own words. How he frames events. Where his attention goes. What he explains easily, and what he does not.Viewed now, this interview stands as an early record of how Scott chose to present himself before charges, before trial, and before the public narrative fully formed. It also sits at the centre of ongoing debate around the case, including renewed discussion linked to the Innocence Project and questions raised about how the story has been interpreted.This is statement analysis in real time.Not hindsight.Not speculation.Just the language Scott Peterson used when the world was listening.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

Laci welcomes back comedians, actors, and podcasters Paul Scheer and Jason Mantzoukas (How Did This Get Made?), and the pair immediately have a bone to pick with the studio: why is there a Chewbacca mural on the wall instead of one of them? Paul, Jason, and Laci then bond over their shared distrust of AI on social media before diving into a wild FBI sting that exposed former NBA players and coaches like Chauncey Billups and Damon Jones, who were allegedly involved in rigged poker games. Backed by the Mafia, the operation used insider information to cheat at sports betting on a multi-million-dollar scale.

Jordan Peele's modern horror-comedy classic Get Out (2017) is the subject of this bonus episode to tide you over while Laci and Matt take the week off. This discussion originally aired on our Patreon, one year ago. But here it is for the first time ever on the free feed!  The show shall return in one week with a brand-new episode about Den of Thieves (2018)! 

Laci welcomes back comedians, actors, and podcasters Paul Scheer and Jason Mantzoukas (How Did This Get Made?), and the pair immediately have a bone to pick with the studio: why is there a Chewbacca mural on the wall instead of one of them? Paul, Jason, and Laci then bond over their shared distrust of AI on social media before diving into a wild FBI sting that exposed former NBA players and coaches like Chauncey Billups and Damon Jones, who were allegedly involved in rigged poker games. Backed by the Mafia, the operation used insider information to cheat at sports betting on a multi-million-dollar scale.
