Crossroads
Would it even be a season of TFTRR without super best friend of the show Liz stopping by? Following up on our deep dive into millennial pop divas, we detour into pop star movie vehicle town on the weirdly slow cross-country road trip that is Crossroads. Were critics and audiences way too unfair to this movie or… was it actually kind of bad and we just feel guilty for everything else we put Britney through? Is it possible to include all this horrific subject matter in a movie targeted at tweens? Can we please have a little less exposition and more actual acting, or however that Elvis song goes? And maybe spare some Kim Cattrall? Plus, Bree’s nephew is born in the middle of the podcast. No, really.

Goodfellas
As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a podcast host. Being a podcast host to me was better than being the president of the United States! Mynty Cicero returns to the podcast to discuss Goodfellas and, more broadly, the legacy of organized crime, the mafia, Martin Scorcese and his gangster movies. We go over the “film bro” persona that has been much discussed over the last 20 years and what role Scorcese and Goodfellas played in this. Bree tries to convince Mynt that Ray Liotta is a good actor. Is it OK for non-Italians to play Italians? How about all the Jewish stuff in this movie? Also, is Christopher Nolan the brutalism of directors?

Super Smash Bros
No items, Fox only, Final destination. It’s time for our annual video game episode! Bree and video game culture correspondent Ted Raymond – host of Let’s Playmond With Ted Raymond – party (game) like it’s 1999 with a look back at Super Smash Bros and the franchise that followed. We discuss the divisive nerdiness and overcorrection that resulted in Melee’s pivot, the limitations of the cartridge era, Nintendo’s evolution to the party game platform and the very sexy Captain Falcon.
