"Playing football at West Canaan may have been the opportunity of your lifetime, but I don't want your life!" - Mox
If you didn't just read the end of this quote in James Van Der Beek's southern accent circa 1999, we don't know how to help you. For this episode, Andrea and Melissa ruminate on high school football and its highs and lows through the vehicle of VARSITY BLUES. That's right, Dawson's Creek fans, this is your moment! We have so much fun talking about this movie, you might say it had whipped cream and a cherry on top....

"Sounds razor." - Rachel Wagner
Sorry, Mr. Rosenberg, STOP torturing poor Katie Holmes with this nonsense. "Razor" never took as new teen slang and didn't sound nearly as clever as it may have looked on paper. Back in 1998, the film Disturbing Behavior brought Stepford Wives to high school? Yep. You remember. The grunge kids versus the preppies meets mind-altering brain treatments by a misguided doctor. Andrea and Melissa revisit this addition to 90s teen horror for some laughs during this episode.

"I don't care whether you like me or not!" - Meredith Morton
Dysfunctional families. We've all got experience with them. Holidays are usually the best catalyst to amplify those dysfunctions. Add a new person/guest into the mix, and you have a recipe for lots of antics to ensue. For this episode, Melissa introduced Andrea to The Family Stone from 2005. There are some pretty big name actors in this cast but the movie was under the radar for both your hosts. The holiday season may be coming to a close, but family embarrassment has no calendar! Have fun listening to this episode!

"Throwing a party it's like... it's like an invitation for abuse. It's like the last desperate act of someone who hasn't had a lasting relationship since Junior High." - Monica
Sooooooooooooo.........New Year's Eve was very different this year. Covid19 has parties squashed, but that is no reason you couldn't find a way to ring in 2021 with some fun! Andrea and Melissa joined this virtual NYE set in the 80s ,by digging out the well-loved DVD - 200 Cigarettes. Through recording this episode, we discovered that this movie has become a rare vintage gem! 200 Cigarettes is not streaming or On Demand, but you can go old school and buy the DVD on eBay for a pretty penny. The cast in this movie had us laughing out loud and reminiscing about the early careers of SO MANY STARS! What a great way to virtually party and get our New Year's Eve positive vibes. Think of this as going to a party without all the B. S. of going to a party *said in a NY accent*.

14 Going On 40 - Episode 33 - I Know What You Did Last Summer

"A toast... to us, to our last summer of immature, adolescent decadence." - Barry Cox
Once upon a time, there was a golden age of teen horror movies. That time was the late 1990s. Sadly, they weren't all as brilliant as Kevin Williamson's Scream. Sometimes, we see success and say...."so, what else have you got?" Mr. Williamson had a script that was once rejected. Based on a teen novel by Lois Duncan, the movie I Know What You Did Last Summer was born. This movie had all the A-list hollywood youths to splash across its marketing. Add to that, some urban legend, a coastal fishing town, beauty pageantry, parade floats, and a "killer hook" and you've got yourself a fun slasher flick. Revisit this creepy Independence Day movie with Andrea and Melissa for some much-needed laughter!

14 Going On 40 - Episode 34 - Thelma & Louise

"You could park a car in the shadow of his ass." - Thelma
Sometimes a story ends up being EPIC. We throw that word around a lot, now. Make no mistake about it, 1991's Thelma & Louise is truly an epic story. Andrea and Melissa were only 12 years old when Ridley Scott directed this movie. It was no surprise that this story was above their heads, at the time. It was truly exciting to revisit this movie with the eyes of grown women. Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon are exquisite in this. Brad Pitt isn't so bad, either. Get ready for your summer road trip to the wild west! This will get you in the mood for summer, best friends, convertible cars, and bittersweet bonds that last to the end!

"Whoa, wait, you're having a party on a Wednesday? On a school night?" - Bianca Piper
Designated Ugly Fat Friend......a DUFF, if you will. This teen movie took the wingman concept and spun a new definition to help label the insecurity monster we all have had to face in one way or another. While Mae Whitman is hardly ugly or fat, she has the sarcasm delivery the role of Bianca Piper needs. This movie came out in 2015 and one of your hosts had never seen it. Join Andrea and Melissa on this fun episode! We hope you have a great time laughing with us.

"See when a girl decides that you're her friend, you're no longer a dating option. You become this complete non-sexual entity in her eyes, like her brother, or a lamp." Happy Holidays, friends! Join Andrea and Melissa as they chat about Just Friends, a modern Christmas comedy. This movie is so much fun and absolutely worth revisiting! Ryan Reynolds, Amy Smart, and Anna Faris are the much needed comedic relief we all could use around the craziest time of year!

"High school star, never quite lived up to your potential. Sooner or later you all come back to your old school, stand there and look at the picture of the glory days wondering "What might have been." Seems to me you guys are living in the past." - Janitor
No matter what your answer to the age-old question of "would you go back to being 17 again" - we've all thought about it. This movie is not original in concept, but 2009's 17 Again was still a worthwhile revisit. Zach Efron and Matthew Perry take us on a fun romp through a sort of time travel/ body switching experience. It may not be a cinematic masterpiece, but Andrea and Melissa have some thoughts on the whole concept. If you need a good dose of nostalgia, have a listen to this hilarious episode!
