Podcasts about romantic comedies

The book-turned-Netflix rom-com that has the internet in a chokehold… it’s time for our brutally honest review of People We Meet On Vacation. We’re unpacking Emily Henry's beloved novel and putting it head-to-head with its Netflix adaptation — from what translated beautifully on screen to what absolutely did not. We get into the cast, the chemistry (or lack thereof), and Emily’s very strong gripe with main character Poppy (… can someone say Pick Me?).Plus we're breaking down the one scene that never should’ve made it into the film, and another that's we’re genuinely devastated was left on the cutting room floor...things get so heated at one point that Emily nearly walks out of the room. Honestly, we almost lost a host today.If you’ve read the book, watched the movie, or are just here for the mess — this one’s for you.THE END BITSThe Spill has a new podcast thats devoted to TV bingeing!

And the illusion that everything works better when life is on pause.This week on RomCom Rescue, Kira Sabin and Dr. Isabelle Morley break down Netflix's People We Meet on Vacation, starring Emily Bader and Tom Blyth — a friends-to-lovers story that should work… but maybe doesn't.We talk about:Why “vacation chemistry” is not the same as real-life compatibilityThe outdated question of “Can men and women be friends?”Emotional intimacy, blurry boundaries, and what actually creates problems in relationshipsWhy attraction alone doesn't mean you should build a life togetherAnd the big miss that kept this romance from fully landingFair warning: we liked parts of it… and still had a lot to say.

We talk about why mystery is not the same as thrillers, how “millennial cozies” are changing the genre, and why her books are the perfect gateway for romance readers who want puzzles, banter, and emotional payoff—without nightmare fuel.We also dig into why Jenny chose to write standalone companion novels instead of a single sleuth series, the rise of cozy mysteries set in big cities, and the nonfiction rabbit holes (poison! art theft!) that inspire her storytelling.

Any takeaways from this episode?This week on Rom-Com Rescue, we are diving headfirst into the internet-melting, emotionally devastating, wildly addictive rom-com series Heated Rivalry starring Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie (2025), now streaming on HBO Max.Hockey rivals.Secret lovers.A decade-long slow burn.One cottage that changed everything.And yes — some of the most talked-about butts on screen.We're breaking down why Heated Rivalry has taken over timelines, group chats, and late-night thoughts — and why this story hits so deeply for so many people.On the surface, this is a sexy rivals-to-lovers romance between Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov. But underneath? This show taps directly into anxious attachment, avoidant coping, long-distance fantasy, secrecy, and the very human desire to be chosen — fully and openly.In this episode, Kira and Dr. Isabelle Morley unpack:Why long-distance + time creates powerful fantasy bondsHow secrecy intensifies intimacy (and where it goes wrong)The anxious–avoidant push/pull dynamic at the heart of the storyWhy sex can feel like closeness — even when emotional intimacy is missingWhat makes this show feel emotionally safe in a way so many romances don'tWe also talk about:Why this story resonated so strongly with womenWhat it means to feel wanted vs. chosenHealthy vs. unhealthy longingRepresentation without traumaAnd why so many of us are still thinking about the cottageThis is not a recap podcast.This is a relationship dynamics deep dive — and Heated Rivalry gives us a LOT to work with.Come talk with us about your favorite rom-coms on instagram, tiktok, & youtube and Bluesky!Get show notes, transcripts, and more information on at Rom-ComRescue.com

We found a romcom to rival When Harry Met Sally (maybe). In the first episode of Weekend Watch for 2026, Tina Burke gushes over this book adaptation. With a gorgeous cast, great writing and steamy scenes, we think it deserved a cinematic release. Plus, Em is losing her head over a musical thats in cinemas. Recorded in the same style as Hamilton, its the perfect way to get your theatre hit without the price tag. Don't let the fact that its a musical discourage you, this show is basically a Spice Girls concert. And a new limited series has Laura hooked. Starring Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal, this thriller is full of twists and turns. No spoilers, but Em is pretty sure she knows how it ends.

We’re taking a long, hard look at the rom-com couples we love… and why they probably wouldn’t survive the real world. From laugh-out-loud mismatches to relationships built on shaky foundations, this episode dissects the couples who looked perfect on screen but would have called it quits ages ago. If you’ve ever wondered which of your favourite rom-com romances would actually make it past the first date, press play — it’s about to get brutally honest (and hilarious).

This week, Jaye Newport is back to talk about 2001's romantic comedy Serendipity. Starring John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale, it's a story of two people who meet by chance while holiday shopping in New York City. But are they fated to be together? Or do they make the choice to upend their lives for one another? It's fate vs choice, crossing paths and just missing each other all over NYC, with Jeremy Piven, Molly Shannon, and a scene stealing Eugene Levy. So, is this one worth a watch over 20 years later? Or just a product of late 90s Rom-Com silliness? Let's find out...Jaye and Audie Norman have a podcast!

It’s the second episode of our Summer Book Club and this time, we’re diving headfirst into Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry. So then, it was the book that promised joy, mess, meaning and maybe a mild existential spiral — did it deliver?

There's plenty of festive energy left with Stuart Maconie and guests in the Loose Ends twixtmas studio:Taskmaster champion Maisie Adams tells us how she got in touch with her previously hidden competition-demon on the show, her highly-flammable competition outfit and that nailbiting finish, as well as revving up for a new tour in 2026. ITV's hit drama Red Eye is back for a second season on New Year's Day and its star Jing Lusi tells us about reprising her role as the kickboxing DI Hanna Li. She thinks DI Li would not approve of her penchant for Romcoms and fitness avoidance. And Radio 3's Elizabeth Alker outlines how rock and pop musicians from The Beatles to Radiohead to Manic Street Preachers owe a debt to classical music with tales from her new book Everything We Do Is Music. She also has tales of her rockstar Yorkshire terrier Terry who rules the roost at her house in December and well, all year round really.Plus inspiring music for the turning of the year from Thea Gilmore and from Carly Mercedes Dyer singing You Are My Lucky Star from the musical Singing in the Rain.Producer: Olive Clancy Assistant producer: Sam Nixon Technical producers: John Cole & John Benton Production coordinator: Pete Liggins

When screenwriter Russell Hainline first moved to L.A., his goal was to write high-budget monster movies and thrillers. Then one day, he was prompted to write a Hallmark holiday rom-com, and something clicked. In this special holiday episode, Russell talks about his breakout Netflix hit Hot Frosty and how he found his groove writing movies for the Hallmark Channel. He also gets to the heart of why people connect to these movies and explains how he's able to convey steamy sexual tension between chaste TV movie characters.  This episode was produced by Cameron Drews.

In this episode, I'm joined by romance author Erin Nicholas to talk holiday books, audio “girlie” life, and her newest festive romcom, Merry Mayhem.Erin's been publishing since 2009/2010 (and has 70–80+ books… she's lost count in the best way). We get into how the romance industry has shifted from the “dark ages” of early ebooks to today's audio boom, plus why small towns hit peak magic at Christmas.

My Secret Santa is exactly what you think it is — a super predictable, basic holiday rom-com that you'll probably forget by New Year's. BUT… it's charming enough, light enough, and festive enough to get the job done.

Amy Lea is back with her latest novel promising a high-stakes rom-com with sharp humor, crackling tension and heart-melting moments. 

This week on The Nikki & Brie Show, everyone's asking the same question: Is Nikki starring in a holiday movie?! Not quite—but her new Google AI Shopping Ad has people convinced she's headlining a Hallmark film. Nikki spills the behind-the-scenes on playing “Holly,” starring opposite Taylor Kinney (yes, from Chicago Fire) and getting mothered by Donna Kelce! From cut kissing scenes to turtlenecks, Nikki shares what really happened on set and why Hallmark might need to give her and Brie a call ASAP.Then it's time to get unhinged in the “Hear Me Out” game: a hilarious round of unexpected crush confessions. Animated characters? Nikki's team Shrek. Fictional villains? Brie's trying to fix The Joker. And don't even get them started on hot UPS drivers and flight attendants. They're revealing who gives “dad vibes,” which professions are sneakily sexy, and the weird scenarios that shouldn't be hot but are (spoiler: getting coffee orders wrong is a BIG no).Nikki & Brie just might be ready for their rom-com era. Press play for some serious holiday laughs! Call Nikki & Brie at 833-GARCIA2 and leave a voicemail!
