EPISODE 109: THE CELL

Mom and I sat down and watched The Cell. There is no food in the movie, so we had breakfast from Mayberry Diner. We talked trivia and the director and the music videos of it all.

EPISODE 108: LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS

Mom and I sat down to watch Guy Ritchie's Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. We talked trivia, the director and the Madonna of it all. We had a lovely pub grub fish 'n chips meal and did a basic TikTok. We discussed a bad review we got too. Fun was had by all. I have to apologize for some farty sounding squeaking. I had my microphone too close to my face the whole time, and with a computer, a notebook and a couple of cats in my lap, it was hard to get comfortable LOL.

EPISODE 107: NIGHT OF THE COMET

Mom and I sat down to watch Night Of The Comet. We were...disappointed, though it's easy to see why it's a Cult Classic. We had a grab n' go style food court breakfast smorgasbord, talked for 2 seconds about the director, the end of the world and I troubleshot Mom's favorite news app on the Roku.

EPISODE 106: V FOR VENDETTA

Mm and I sat down and watched V For Vendetta. We chatted the director, trivia and stats and had a theme meal of Egg In A Hole's with a side of hash and fruit. We get a little critical of current events and my brain melts down at the end. Go watch our accompanying TikTok.

EPISODE 105: RONIN

Mom and I sat down to watch Ronin, a movie I was sure would cleanse her palate after The Shining. We had a lovely charcuterie board lunch and talked about the director, trivia and stats.

EPISODE 104: THE SHINING

Mom and I finally sat down and watched The Shining. We didn't have very much snow to accompany it, but we enjoyed it nevertheless. We had a room service meal from the Waldorf-Astoria in Chicago because the room service at The Stanley was all steak and I had to think of Mom's digestion. We talked trivia, stats and the Kubrick of it all.

EPISODE 103: WHITE CHRISTMAS

Mom and I sit down to watch this Christmas classic. We had lovely lettuce wrap sandwiches and talked about the movie. We get a little political at the end, so put on your tinfoil hat and join us!

EPISODE 102: DRACULA

Mom and I sat wrapped up Halloween 2025 with Dracula 1931. There is no food in this movie, so as a nod to Bela Lugosi, we had goulash and boy was it good.

EPISODE 101: FRANKENSTEIN

Mom and I are doubling back to Halloween 2025 and we watched the 1931 James Whale classic, Frankenstein. We talked about James Whale, the making of the movie and trivia. We had a lovely theme meal of our family's version of Rouladen and we made a ridiculous TikTok

EPISODE 100: IDENTITY

Mom and I had a real celebration going on as we watched our 100th movie!
