episode 188: FFR 188: Titanic with special guest Caitlin Durante


For over 20 years, both Anita and Ebony have successfully refused to watch James Cameron’s 1997 mega-blockbuster TITANIC, but today they’ve finally relented in order to have a discussion with returning guest and Titanic super-fan Caitlin Durante. Can Caitlin’s sincere love of this disaster movie/period romance warm the waters of Anita and Ebony’s icy reception? Or are two decades worth of parody, memes, and replays of “My Heart Will Go On” too much to keep them from never letting go?

episode 185: FFR 185: Terminator: Dark Fate - FFR re-release


This episode of the podcast was originally meant to be a look at the Terminator franchise as a whole, but there’s only two things that can stop a podcast: (1) the fall of civilization at the hands of our robot overlords, or (2) laryngitis. We’ll let you guess which took down this week’s attempt. Our Terminator meta-take will be out in a few weeks, but in the meanwhile we’re re-releasing our episode on 2019’s Terminator: Dark Fate...
