On this episode of Mortified, Aaron and Leyla kick off our month of romance with the 1940 romcom, "His Girl Friday!" We talk about the importance of tension in comedy, the contradictions of 40s gender expression, and try to pull our mental states out of their steady nosedives.

Our theme song is "Obsolete" by Keshco, from the album "Filmmaker's Reference Kit Volume 2."
