Surprise!
It's us. The podcasters you maybe know and maybe love who are maybe on hiatus?
We couldn't stay away. We've got catching up to do oh, and did I mention, WE WATCHED HUSTLERS!?!?
Happy Haloween, Family!
β οΈMany, many thank boos and thank yous to Jon Biegen for producing this hauntingly beautiful rendition of the Falling in Love Montage Theme Song.π€You guys, you can hire him!!!
If you have the taste for spooky, thematically appropriate episodes please enjoy any of these episodes:
If you're reading this, that means you've found our, err "August episode". Would you believe it, we said Pants so many times it took just forever to edit all of those Plosives. π€·π»ββοΈ
But hey, it's September and we're with special af guest Lauren DeBlasi Jackson talking about a movie that rates so high on the chick flick checklist, it needs its own subgenre.
In fact, join us in our facebook group to workshop this generic title.
If you've never tried on the pants, you can stream both the first and second Traveling Pants movies on US Netflix*.
*as of the time of this release, which is definitely in August π
Welcome to our Love Simon episode or as I like to call it, after listening back to it, our Veronica Mars - Alvin and the Chipmunks episode. π€·π»ββοΈ
Directed by Greg Berlanti, this adaptation of Becky Albertalli's 'Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda' breathes new life into the coming of age romantic comedy.
We can't stress enough how much we need more films with diverse stories and characters. β£οΈmore β£οΈmore β£οΈmore

We did it! We crossed another "weepy" off the list. Whew!
There was no shortage of tear emojis in our notes just as there are no shortage of bad puns in this episode. We even find time to praise and/or objectify the late, great Sam Shepard. Women really can have it all!
By popular demand request and because Eddie Albert tells us, "it's always open season on princesses", we talk Roman Holiday with special af guest Millie De Chirico of Turner Classic Movies and TCM Underground.

Hello, Murial! Goodbye Porpoise Spit!

You can show your support by visiting flyingmachine.network/support or by joining our podcast facebook group discussions here.
By unpopular demand, we close out Marchden (or Marsden March) with The Best of Me, the film (a) critic has called, "β¦a contrived manipulation and an insult to female sensibilities."
Written by suspected anti-Semite Nicholas Sparks and filmed in the breathtaking bayou, we try to love this movie with the oppressive sincerity of "lucky roughneck" Dawson Cole (Marsden). It's a miracle.
Big news guys, it's our first Katherine Heigl movieβand alsoβour first James Marsden movie! Is this serendipity or a highly contrived plot similar to that of 2008's 27 Dresses?
Either way Marsden March is here or James Marchden or whatever silly name we want to call it.

Valerie and Helen took to the theater this month (with friends, yes they have some) to watch 2019's What Men Want.
All of their secret thoughts about the film are contained within this episode. So, if you can't read our minds, you may have to listen - which, coincidentally, is also the theme of the film.
Thank you for your continued support. Falling in Love Montage podcast turned three this month! π

Happy January! We couldn't be more thrilled to pop the lid on 2019 with the discussion of this film, based on the first in a trilogy of books by Kevin Kwan and directed by sweetheart of the podcast, Jon M. Chu. We're talking Crazy Rich Asians y'all! (I can say y'all, I live in Atlanta where it is definitely not snowing).
