1989: The War of The Roses with Carrie Courogen & Carrie Wittmer

Once in a lifetime, a podcast episode comes along that makes you feel like falling in love all over again. Last week we covered Kenny's favorite movie, now it's time for Phil to take the wheel with Danny DeVito's THE WAR OF THE ROSES.


How sexy is Michael Douglas? Is this Danny DeVito's first blank check film? Why does Phil love this thing so much?! These are the questions we're trying to answer this week with a cracker jack team of writers named Carrie; Carrie Wittmer (GQ, Ringer) and Carrie Courogen (Bright Wall Dark Room, Condé Nast) This may just be our widest spread of rankings in almost 200 episodes...it's all out war!
