In the season of giving thanks, Kat & Marc have a lot to be thankful for. For today’s episode, we have a few friends stop by Kat’s apartment to talk all things Nic Cage.

Kat, Marc & Kayin discuss “Face/Off” while Kelen hops in to discuss “National Treasure”. Our good friend Melysette waxes poetic about Cage’s career while Greg impersonates Jimmy Stewart and Marlon Brando. (And a hidden Errick watches from the shadows.)

Was Castor Troy the queer alley we needed? What is John Travolta’s best performance? Could prime Will Smith pull off “I’m going to steal the Declaration of Independence”? Listen and find out!

Happy holidays!

What’s it like to meet Belle? What does it mean to be an ‘80s baby but no nostalgia for Disney? In this week’s episode, Kat & Marc debate if “Beauty and the Beast” is a “I can fix him” movie, question if Disney can ever get back to the glory they experienced in the ‘90s, and xylophones.

After an interesting week in the world, Kat & Marc take a breather to discuss “The Piano” and “Shakespeare in Love”. Can a movie be great and not pass the vibe check? Is Harvey Keitel sneaky hot? Why wasn’t Joseph Fiennes the biggest star in Hollywood? We explore these questions and much more! (SPOILER FREE!)

Sebastian Stan, we owe you an apology! We weren’t really familiar with your game! Marc is joined by Amber Nicole (@ambular_93) to have a spoiler-free discussion about “A Different Man”. They talk disabled and disfigured representation, Adam Pearson’s enchanting performance, and the pleasant surprise of Sebastian Stan. To end the episode, they give their three favorite films of 2024 so far.

“Joker: Folie à Deux” has finally arrived! Kat & Marc discuss confusion over if it is indeed a musical, hundred million dollar punk rock movies, and if Todd Phillip’s film was successful. To cleanse the collective palate, the gang unwinds with “Mary Poppins”.

October means one thing… BASEBALL! This week, Kat & Marc hold off from being spooky and gear up for the Fall Classic by reviewing “Major League” and “Moneyball.” The duo discuss if “Major League” is really a comedy, question if we going to get a new great sports movies, and if baseball can ever be cool again.
