Podstruck: A Rom Com Rewind

This week we are joined by special guest Stephanie Beatriz (Man On The Inside, Brooklyn 99, Encanto, In The Heights) to cover a Christmas classic, "Love Actually". Join us as we discuss Alan Rickman as a love interest, and whether you'd get down with Snape or nah, Keira Knightley's creepy love triangle and how we romanticized stalking in the aughts, and why Colin Firth can always GET IT. And of course we dive fully into Hugh Grant's storyline with his not so subtly Monica Lewinsky coded love interest, Natalie. And we aren't afraid to say it: WE WANT MORE FOR LAURA LINNEY'S CHARACTER! This rom-com is full of Christmas cheer AND workplace harassment! A combo we never knew we needed!Follow Stephanie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stephaniebeatrizFollow Podstruck on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/podstruckpod/Podstruck TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@podstruckpodcastCheck out our Patreon and vote on Meet Cutie Perks: https://www.patreon.com/c/PodstruckpodThis weeks episode was edited by Matt Mancini

This week we "go troppo" for the 2023 rom com hit, Anyone But You starring Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell. Special guest Alex Levy joins the pod as we dig into whether butter should be cut from the middle of the pat, how grilled cheese sandwich making IS foreplay, and why you CANNOT get chlamydia from a koala. Fascinating stuff. Also romantic comedy fave, Dermot Mulroney, graces us with his presence in this movie and this may or may not cause Elena to go into an existential spiral about aging. If you love Natasha Beddingfield's Unwritten, the scenic wonder that is Australia, and fingers in the butt, then this episode is for you!Follow Alex Levy on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/AlexLevyFollow Podstruck on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/podstruckpod/Podstruck TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@podstruckpodcastCheck out our Patreon and vote on Meet Cutie Perks: https://www.patreon.com/c/PodstruckpodThis weeks episode was edited by Nick Duke: Instagram @n_dukie

Podstruck covers another Julia Roberts classic rom-com with My Best Friend's Wedding, a movie where everyone is determined to ruin sweet Cameron Diaz's life. Brooke Wied (Grace & Frankie) joins Elena Crevello and Chelsea Davison to discuss everything from how hot Dermot Mulroney is, to why bugs are the future! Brooke gives us the skinny on how Rupert Everett pitched himself to be in the ending of the movie (we do not fact check anything here - so don't quote us), and we hash out whether Julia and Dermott were actually even friends to begin with. Wow - what a journey! Join us as we rewatch the movie that taught a nation that Cameran Diaz can not sing worth a damn.Follow Brooke Wied on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/BrookeWiedFollow Podstruck on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/podstruckpod/Podstruck TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@podstruckpodcastCheck out our Patreon and vote on Meet Cutie Perks: https://www.patreon.com/c/Podstruckpod
