Mike is still off on what Taylor insists on calling his “Artistic Sabbatical,” so Taylor welcomes You Had Me At’s resident book-to-screen expert, Katie, to the mic.

This week, they dive into the 2026 adaptation of Wuthering Heights, written and directed by Emerald Fennell. They break down what works, what doesn’t, how it stacks up against Emily Brontë’s original novel, and whether this latest take justifies revisiting one of literature’s most toxic love stories.

Father Quirk joins Taylor for a fun Anti-Valentines movie talk as they discuss Don't Look Now (1973) and Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975).

An absent Mike, a cold fighting Taylor and a sad special guest makes for a great kick-off to the February movie season! Friend of show, friend of Taylor, Nicole, joins us this week to review Dream Lover (1993) and we also hear what else has caught Nicole's eye recently on the big screen.

Mike dives headfirst into Together, the 2025 supernatural body horror debut from Michael Shanks, to see whether its ambition sticks the landing or collapses under its own weight. Meanwhile, Taylor checks out Song Sung Blue, Craig Brewer’s biographical musical drama, to judge if it hits the right emotional notes or plays it too safe. Two very different films, one shared question: did they actually work?

We interrupt this regularly scheduled episode for our Oscars Reactions! The nominations are out, and Taylor welcomes guest host Nicole in to discuss the films up for various awards and what they have seen or are looking forward to seeing...

Awards season chaos is here. Mike and Taylor break down the Golden Globe winners, who earned it, who didn’t, and which wins actually matter going forward. Then it’s a full mailbag episode, tackling listener questions, hot takes, and the topics you’ve been itching for us to dig into. Loose structure, sharp opinions, and zero filler.

This week, Mike revisits the jungle with the Anaconda (2025) remake to see if nostalgia or modern excess wins out, while Taylor digs into Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery to judge whether Benoit Blanc still has gas in the tank. Two movies, two very different outcomes, and honest takes on what’s worth your time.
