Join us as we dive into the 1987 romantic comedy 'Overboard' starring real-life couple Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn. We explore this tale of mistaken identity and questionable ethics set in the Pacific Northwest, discussing everything from chainsaw art to fancy yacht living. We break down how the incredible chemistry between Russell and Hawn saved what could have been a problematic premise, debate the merits of Spaghetti-O Surprise as a dinner option, and share some passionate opinions about California Closets.
Learn about the film's interesting production history, including the yacht's surprising second career in the Philippine Navy, and hear our thoughts on whether this premise would float in modern times. Plus, discover the unexpected connection between Kurt Russell's blue truck and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, examine whether movie remakes need gender swaps to work in today's world, and find out why you should never discuss caviar with snobby yacht owners.
Come aboard for a discussion that's equal parts nostalgic and critical of this unique 80s gem!
