Leslie and Ben
<p><strong>Episode Summary</strong></p><p>Move over, Hugh Grant — it’s Adam Scott’s turn to shine. In this episode, Ren and Madie talk about Madie’s all-time favorite sitcom couple: Leslie Knope and Ben Wyatt. While no sitcom wedding ever goes to plan, Ben and Leslie’s wedding episode is practically perfect television. Their chemistry, nuance, humor, and general adoration for one another makes this love story hard to beat (and might make Ren a fan of TV) (maybe).</p><p><br></p><p>Canonically Good Hang is a video podcast hosted by Ren Cottam and Madie Thatcher.

AN ANNOUNCEMENT!

Enjoy our final two episodes as CGH and stay tuned for brand new recordings, an actual website, and the same ridiculous banter (our only consistency in this project) (so far).</p><p><br /></p>

K-Pop Demon Hunters
<p>K-Pop Demon Hunters has taken the internet (and these two hosts’ hearts) by a storm, and there’s good reason for it. Animation is back with original, inventive storytelling, proving that the medium has merit, especially when it’s up against live-action remakes. (Spoiler: We’re not fans of the latter.) Ren walks Madie through why this movie made an impact from the first watchthrough — and why the subsequent several rewatches are worth it too.</p><p><br /></p><p>Canonically Good Hang is a video podcast hosted by Ren Cottam and Madie Thatcher.
