Episode 49: Marry Me Discussion and Critique

<p>Happy Goofday, All! We thought a goofy episode on relationships might go down poorly today, so we decided to drop a formerly Patreon-exclusive episode instead! Patrons got to listen to this in February; you too can listen to our content earlier by heading over to Patreon.com and signing up now!<br/><br/>Joel and Naomi dug into Marry Me, the Owen Wilson and Jennifer Lopez &quot;rom-com&quot; that dropped in February. Sure, they mostly spend the episode nitpicking the horrible concept and weird plot points like a lazy Youtube channel, but they also get into an interesting discussion about why a lot of rom-com plotting sucks, and some ways a clever writer might be able to write a kickass script and  revitalize the genre. <br/><br/>All credit to Universal Pictures for use of their poster.<br/><br/>All credit to Mr Loco for the use of their song <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VFkQa6ozmU&amp;ab_channel=NoahDeGarmo'>&quot;Religious Man.&quot;</a> <br/><br/>We strongly urge our listeners to support the work of Planned Parenthood by donating <a href='https://www.plannedparenthood.org/planned-parenthood-arizona/donate'>here</a>. Patreon donations are sweet, but there are more important causes to support.<br/><br/>Interested in starting your own podcast?
