Show Notes

This week, we chat about one of our favourite 90s films, Sister Act (1992); white women doing inspiration (and face-palmy) things in Australia, our opposing views on Marvel films and February 14th - is it no longer appropriate to celebrate romantic love? Is Galentines Day more fun? (Yes, we think so!) 

We also look back on the rom-coms of the 2000s and how they made us fantasise about romantic love that is just not useful.
