Episode notes

Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar

Much like the movie we’re discussing today, listening to this episode is like taking a tropical vacation. And to do so, we’re joined by the wonderful actress and writer Mary Elizabeth Ellis (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Santa Clarita Diet). The movie we dissect on the show is the delightfully kooky, Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar. Plus, the gang answers an email about their favorite Black romance movies. And, as always, we’ve got ‘Staff Picks.’

In news, Ta-Nehisi Coates is set to write a new Superman movie, Robbie Williams will be portrayed by a CGI monkey, and Dame Judi Dench opens up about her deteriorating eyesight .
