Best & Worst Rom-Coms of the Year: Our 1-Year Podcast Anniversary

Any takeaways from this episode?

Woohoo!  It’s been one whole year of the Rom-Com Rescue podcast.
A year of movies, missteps, magic, and yes—more than a few rants about enemies-to-lovers.

In this special anniversary episode, Kira and Dr. Izzy reflect on:

• The rom-coms we loved (Rye Lane, Love at First Sight, Idea of You)
• The rom-coms we barely got through (Anyone But You, we're looking at you)
• Our favorite series of the year (and which ones deserved better)
• What we’ve learned from a year of love lessons on screen
• Why repair matters more than romance
• Our hopes, dreams, and manifesting Kristen Bell & Adam Brody as guests

And because this is Rom-Com Rescue, we of course go off on:

• Why trailers lie
• Why enemies-to-lovers needs to go to therapy (or just… go)
• How we really feel about the "soulmate myth"
• Why Hollywood and healthy relationships still aren’t speaking the same language

But beyond the laughs and hot takes, we’re celebrating something bigger:

 🎉 A full year of doing this thing. Together.

This podcast started as a dream and has become a weekly deep dive into what love can be—messy, real, and worth talking about.
