Based off their mildly successful blog of the same name, best friends and romcom aficionados Kat Jiang and Alex M. Lu review your favorite romantic comedies and ask the hard questions, like, how DOES Katherine Heigl afford that apartment on an assistant's salary? New episodes every two weeks! Hopefully.

Wednesday Jun 15, 2022
Wednesday Jun 15, 2022
In which Fire Island comes through for Jane Austen, creator of English literature's hottest curmudgeon -- which is probably what Netflix will call her in their next trailer of her work.

Episode 50: The Philadelphia Story
Wednesday Feb 16, 2022
Wednesday Feb 16, 2022
In which we celebrate our 50th episode and Valentine's Day with our favorite romantic comedy!
Also, please note that we wondered aloud in this episode whether any of Neil Simon's many plays had been adapted to film... I mean, surely, right?? And indeed, upon looking it up later later, we realized (unsurprisingly) that Neil Simon has so many famous works that we did not even know he wrote some of them...and yes, there are many movies.

Episode 48: Single All the Way
Wednesday Dec 15, 2021
Wednesday Dec 15, 2021
In which Kat and Alex, shockingly, enjoyed a film! A Netflix Christmas miracle!
Alex claims in this episode that Philemon Chambers and Michael Urie were actually classmates at Julliard, but that was incorrect (damn you, Wikipedia!). It was actually Luke Macfarlane and Michael Urie who overlapped at Julliard.
Happy holidays, Romcomathon listeners!

Wednesday Nov 24, 2021
Wednesday Nov 24, 2021
In which Alex foolishly tries to apply logic to the choices of the Hudgenses, Kat wonders how much space is left in Europe if Netflix keeps adding countries, and we both share Vanessa Hudgens #1's skepticism that Vanessa Hudgens #3 deserves a full pardon for KIDNAPPING... Happy (American) Thanksgiving, Romcomathoners!

Episode 46: Gigli
Wednesday Oct 13, 2021
Wednesday Oct 13, 2021
In which Alex made Kat watch Gigli, which is maybe the worst thing she's ever done in the course of their friendship.
TW: This episode does discuss an act of self-harm that occurs as part of the storyline in the film. Though it's not discussed for long, we do refer to the incident more than once.
