They share their reactions to two standout music documentaries: “Noga” and “Sara Bareilles: Good Grief”, discussing the moments that stayed with them long after the credits rolled. To wrap things up, Lily jumps in with a roundup of the movies she's recently watched—and they couldn't be more different. This...

This week, Shai and Lily dive into the messy state of movie ratings and ask a simple question: Can we trust any of them anymore? From surprisingly great films with disappointing Rotten Tomatoes scores to the growing gap between critics and audiences, they unpack why trusting these rating systems has become harder than ever. Tune in for a fun conversation about our favorite “bad” movies, underrated gems, and the reboots ...

This week we share all the tea from Shai's bat mitzvah (jk it was his daughter's) and spoiler - it was the best weekend ever. We talk playlists, swag, food and how certain traditions will never change. We also go down memory lane and chat about some throwbacks from our bar and bat mitzvah days. We round off the ep with a few movie and TV recs since this is still technically a pop culture podcast. You're definitely invited to listen...

Becky and Shai are back with a packed watch list. They break down Influenced (in theaters now!), Jill Kargman's sharp satirical take on influencer culture — and yes, the sibs have a little skin in this one as co-exec producers. They also get into Devil Wears Prada 2, whether it lives up to the legacy, and why we always want more Emily Blunt. Plus: Dark Wizard the Dean Potter documentary, a tragic and riveting portrait of a BA...

This week the sibs talk about some upcoming movies and react to the trailers. We kick off the ep with Hugh Jackman’s latest thriller (or is it?) - Sheep Detectives - and can’t help going on a “Huge” tangent. We then discuss the controversial (for very different reasons reasons) trailers for Michael and Practical Magic 2. We close out the ep with some “Buy, Rent Meh” Trailer edition.

The gang is back together and we've got lots to chat about this week. We accidentally delve into the "Mandela Effect", which leads Shai to quiz Lily and Becky on various ripples in the Kormanverse. We also play an unexpected movie food game (comments welcome!) and chat about what TV we've been watching, which includes "Love on the Spectrum U.S.", "The Pitt", "Vladimir" and "Rooster" (mostly no spoilers, promise!).

Director Lee Lawson joins the sibs to talk Man Eating P, the horror film she accidentally made while trying to make something gentle. Lee breaks down the conceptual heart of the film — the relationship between sex, death, and birth — and how the warmth of the cinematography holds the maternal feeling that carries it all together. They dig i...
