Drunk On Rom-Coms

Send us a textBut has it really been 20 years since THE Pride and Prejudice movie?? Join us for an extra long episode talking about every glance, every hand hold, and all the yearning!Not only can Coni recite this movie by heart, but she her British accent is so good, you wouldn't even know she was doing a British accent. And Marie makes it very clear that she would never survive in this universe of quick British wit and dance banter. Come tell us how much you love Pride & Prejudice! Support the show

Send us a textNo, this isn't an April Fools trick. We really are here for Mr. Big O himself! Join us as we talk about this age gap romance filled with exotic scenery and predictable backstory. And if you've never seen this movie before, please note that it is not a sci-fi love story that Marie thought it was. She was very disappointed. And with the amount of hijinks these love birds got into, you would've thought this movie should've been another Taken. Like it's amazing how no one got kidnapped or murdered running around so freely. Support the show

Send us a textShoutout to every assistant who ever had to do a weird, way-too-personal task for their boss! We've been there, and we see you. Join us as we continue our age gap series and dive into none other than A Family Affair. If there's anything you take away from this episode, it's that Coni REALLY wants to walk around the Universal Studios lot.And what makes this movie so interesting is that we wouldn't care if our mom dated someone younger, but we DO CARE if it's our terrible boss. Because that's just weird, Mom. Support the show

Send us a textEven though we're strong lovers of boy bands and VIP experiences, we are absolutely not fans of outdoor, multi-day festivals. We refuse. We won't do it. Well, maybe if it's free. . . AND if there's a very strong chance a famous singer falls in love with us after we use their trailer restroom. Because that's what this movie is all about. Come join us as we gush over The Idea of You and all it entails. We're in our age gap love era and embracing it wholeheartedly. So what if he orders chicken tends after doing the deed? If he dedicates a song to you in front of thousands of people, all pants are off. Now tell us, are you more a DORC or a Moon Head? Support the show

Send us a textOh hey there DORCs, it's been literally years! But Marie & Coni are back at it with romantic comedies. And what better way to kick off Season 3 than with something adorably romantic like THE Valentine's Day movie?We're suckers for a star-filled cast of intertwined stories, but throw in some cheesy love and grand gestures - *chefs kiss*. Join us as we talk through the connections, the teenage cringe, and all the inklings. And don't get mad if we miss a storyline or get people mixed up, because you know there's literally everyone and their mom is in this movie. We're glad to be back and hope you enjoy our tipsy shenanigans this season! Support the show

Send us a textIt's finally here! Season 2 finale is here and we're putting you in the holiday spirit with the one and only movie that you need a pen and paper to take notes on. Like if we gave you a quiz to name ALL the characters, right now, could you do it??? Because we definitely can't. If you haven't seen Love Actually. . . . It's like they took all the famous British people and a couple Americans and through them into a Christmas film.  Also, in this episode, we summarize each storyline for you as best as we can. We may have gotten side tracked with B-character Carl. And that's our bad.  Join us as we rant on the Prime Minister's generic character name and dream of escaping to a French cottage for the holidays. There's a lot of movie so naturally we have a lot of thoughts. Like why are there so many office romances happening at Christmas time??? Lastly, we'd like to thank you DORCs for joining us on our Season 2 journey and we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!!! Only want to listen to certain segments? We gotchu boo. Character Intros: 4:49Uncle Billy: 14:50Let's Talk About Jamie: 17:55John and Just Judy: 21:03Stepdad Daniel and Sam: 22:52Karen and Harry Drama: 25:20Juliet, Mark, and Peter: 29:13Prime Minister and Natalie: 31:58Sarah and Hot AF Carl: 35:42Colin: 37:52Take Me On The Piano: 39:38Why Are You Like This?!: 44:58Final Thoughts/Ratings: 48:55Support the show

Send us a textY'all! We are one more episode away from our season 2 finale! GASP. Carrying on with family ties, we're now bringing in Coni's sister Javi to join us for one of the greatest wedding romantic comedies to exist - My Big Fat Greek Wedding. You're going to learn so much about Javi and Coni's childhood in an immigrant household and how this movie is triggering in every way. Now the other crazy thing is, do we really believe Ian is the real deal?? No pushback at all with any of the wedding planning or family craziness? Perhaps he's too good to be true, even in rom-com standards. Either way, we will gladly take on oil-rubbing duties as his Godmother any day. So grab your "boont" cakes and lamb, cause we're talking about all of our favorite moments in this episode! Only want to listen to certain segments?

Send us a textOnly a few more episodes left before our Season 2 finale and we're spending some quality time with family. But not just any relative - Marie's mom is so graciously joining us for a family DORC episode! Fun fact! Marie's dad actually loves this movie and asked us to do it. However, he refused to actually talk about it with us. So Momma T is stepping in the podcast ring to help us dissect every ridiculous part of this 1981 movie. Don't get it twisted though, Liza Minnelli is forever a gem and we only slightly judge her problematic sticky fingers. Only want to listen to certain segments?

Send us a textAs we wrap up our Rom-Coms 'Round The World, we're finishing up with an all time classic, Bridget Jones's Diary. On this episode we're talking with our favorite blokes  and the only people we'll ever go to for Hugh news - Oscar and Diggory from Taking Hugh For Granted. Just so everyone knows, Renée Zellweger should've won an Oscar for this role and THFG will die on this hill. I mean come on, she sounded more English than some English people! We couldn't imagine anyone else crushing this role - NO ONE. That being said, Oscar and Diggory give us their best Texan accents and DORC is ready to ship them some ten gallon hats. But please, for the love of all that is good and wonderful, don't make Coni and Marie do British accents. Marie learns what an "e-boy" is and Coni shares her Pride & Prejudice collection to the group. Even though Coni does enjoy a great Darcy, Colin Firth will never win the majority vote with this group. You're going to want to listen to this episode, especially if you love bad boy Hugh. Only want to listen to certain segments?

Send us a textIt's a new episode today and that means Drunk On Rom-Coms is going full on Bollywood!!!We have the lovely babes from Bollywood Besharams with us to talk about 2013's Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. And if you're a newb to Bollywood movies like Marie & Coni, then you should definitely start with this one. TBH, this is like a really long music video and you can't help but get excited for the next big number. Are things getting sad? Song. Is someone getting married? Song. Are we just having a normal conversation? Song. Seema and Swas also educate us that the easiest way to find your protagonist is seeing who's got the magic wind blowing in their hair. You find the wind, you find your heroine. That's just how it works in the Bolly-verse. OH and if she starts out as a "nerd" with boring hair and glasses, you know she's about to have a classic rom-com GLOW UP with full volume locks and great vision. Only want to listen to certain segments? We gotchu boo. Take Me On The Piano: 19:45Why Are You Like This?!: 25:37Final Thoughts/Ratings: 32:23Support the show
