Yet another Garry Marshall movie on the pod! Princess Mia is back and is set to become the Queen of Genovia…if she can find a husband in 30 days! Gasp! We love this movie and enjoyed reviewing it for you all!
-
Excuse our delay with episodes! Life has been extra busy! We both really enjoyed The Unmaking of June Farrow by Adrienne Young. It itched our brains in a good way! We definitely recommend reading this one and between the hard copy book and audiobook, we think the hard copy text would be better. Let us know if you read it and what you think!

The unnamed protagonist is struggling to make freeze dried food taste slightly edible. We decided that Allie will volunteer to go to space in Andie’s place if necessary. We enjoyed Ausubel’s short stories but the initial reviews were misleading. The tone of the stories are sad overall with some hints of comic relief. Let us know if you read them with us!
-
Jungle animals help return Mowgli to the man village even though Mowgli doesn’t want to leave the jungle. We both picked Kaa the Snake as our favorite character and really enjoyed King Louie’s scene. Andie rated based on the nostalgia factor and it didn’t quite compare to Robin Hood for Allie but overall a good old fashioned animated movie.
-
This is the second pick in our short story mini series! Awayland by Ramona Ausubel has 11 short stories, one of them being Club Zeus. David takes a summer job in a foreign country as a story teller. Will he have crazy tales to share when he gets home?!
-
Triple the taxes! The classic tale of Robin Hood in animal form was one of Allie’s childhood favorites. Oodelally means yippee or hooray in case you were wondering. Join us as we discuss the animated story!
-
Everybody knows the name Frankenstein but have you actually read the story before? Neither of us had and turns out the story is not at all what we thought. Unethical science and MURDER!!! Let us know what you thought of this classic novel!
-
Allie and Andie both decided they would not go back in time to high school to relive any moments. Live and learn! Jenna Rink wakes up as a 30 year old woman when she was just 13 yesterday! She makes some questionable choices that we definitely did not agree with. Let us know what you think of the iconic dress! Are you a fan or is it overrated?
-
The first story in our next short story mini series is You Can Find Love Now which can be found in Awayland by Ramona Ausubel. Awayland contains several short stories and we will be reading three in total. The story focuses on a cyclops who is filling out a dating questionnaire on a dating site. We enjoyed this story but we would both swipe left on Mr. Cyclops! Too many red flags!!!
-
SomeBODY once told me… that Shrek was this week’s episode. Did you know the original Shrek was scrubbed from the internet?!?! Shrek (the movie) was based off of Shrek (a children’s picture book) and we never knew it existed. We both loved rewatching this masterpiece!!
-
Sarah and Eddie fall in love in just 7 days but then he ghosts her! What happened to Eddie?! We both thought Sarah should have gotten the message after 2 unanswered texts. This book is classified as a thriller but we agreed that this is the loosest form of a thriller that we’ve read. Overall, we were both “middle of the road” on this one.
-
Halloween People is our last short story from Helen Ellis’ Southern Lady Code. Ellis describes the difference between Halloween People and Christmas People. She needs help with an outfit for a party since she is a Christmas Person. Her friend Karen, who is a Halloween Person, goes with her on a shopping trip. Let us know if you are a Halloween Person or a Christmas Person!
-
Andie had not seen this movie since roughly 2012 and Allie saw it 3 weeks ago… we had mixed feelings on this movie but still an overall positive review. So many funny one liners and anything with Stanley Tucci is sure to be a good watch. Biggest take away is that no job is worth this amount of stress!!! That’s all…
-
Up next in the Southern Lady Code by Helen Ellis is Serious Women! A murder trial is conducted by several serious women and Ellis is in attendance to show her support for her friend, Meredith, the prosecutor. This story has a very different tone and feel than the first two stories we read. Let us know what you think!
-
Overlapping storylines all happening on New Year’s Eve! Directed by our fave director, the one and only Garry Marshall, New Year’s Eve is packed with a huge list of famous actors and actresses. Although neither of us rated this movie very highly (can you believe Allie didn’t like a Garry Marshall movie??), it’s not a bad option to play in the background around the holiday. Let us know which character you liked the most!
-
Eleanor and Timby spend the day looking for Joe because he’s not where he says he is. Panic ensues and Eleanor’s scatterbrained way of thinking causes her to make decisions that are questionable. Definitely read the book over listening to the audiobook on this one! Let us know what you thought of this book!
-
A Christmas time favorite! We both appreciated Kate Winslet’s character the most. Let us know if you would do a home exchange with a stranger! Andie would with limitations…Allie would not haha.
-
Allie and Andie take a dive into Southern Lady Code by Helen Ellis! We started out learning how to be the best guest at a dinner party and when it is appropriate to write a thank you note. Helen Ellis writes in true southern style with a hilarious southern accent. We hope you enjoyed these short stories!
-
Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan are the perfect mother/daughter duo in this hilarious early 2000s movie. You would only rate it 1 out of 5 fortune cookies if your name is Stacey Hinkhouse! So many funny scenes and quotes throughout the film! Let us know what you rate this movie!
-
So good!! The twists were unexpected though Allie’s guess about who was responsible for the murders was mostly right. Willingham’s debut novel is a must read! Definitely let us know how you liked it!
