Based on a True Fiction

Kathleen Littlefield joins Abby Brosh and Stacy Shirk this St. Patrick's Day on a romp through New York during the Civil War! If that sounds like a lot, you'd be right. Enjoy a pint as we tackle Boss Tweed, xenophobia, and America's first draft.

This episode Abby and Stacy review their first romantic comedy based on history “How Stella Got Her Groove Back” (1998), and are joined by two special guests: the anonymous host and producer of relationship podcast “You Can Tell Me.”

Stacy and Abby explore James Cameron's surprisingly close-to-perfect historical depiction of Titanic (1997). From the old couple in the bed to the very carpet used on set, almost every character and image you see has some basis in fact. Besides the love story so, you know, the main plot.

Abby and Stacy went back to their bi-coastal roots and recorded separately in their own homes for some socially distant podcasting this week! They hope that the dulcet tones of Dame Julie Andrews in "The Sound of Music" (1965) will help to soothe listeners' quarantine woes!

Stacy and Abby are back for St. Patrick's Day! This episode delves into The Troubles of Northern Ireland as seen in Jim Sheridan's biographical film about Gerry Conlon, "In the Name of the Father" (1993).
