548: RSVP-ing To You're Cordially Invited

After NBC screwed up Charles Star's booking by dropping The Hunting Party series premiere weeks early, it's fitting (?) that he should, instead, join us for a Prime Video original movie about a scheduling snafu: the Nicholas Stoller-written and -directed You're Cordially Invited, starring Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon at war over a wedding venue. Did it leave us wanting to toss rice, or toss our cookies? Listen to find out. Around The Dial takes us to Clean Slate, The Hunting Party (Charles watched it so he might as well warn the community about it), Band Of Brothers, and just a whisper about the imminent third season of Reacher. Sarah pitches "Forks" from The Bear for induction into The Canon. Then, after naming the week's Winner and Loser, it's on to a Game Time that tests our TV and movie knowledge SAT-style. Grab a slice of cake -- hope it's not too dry -- and listen!GUESTS👤 Charles StarTOPICSAnnouncement: 📢 Patreon UpdateLead Topic: 👰‍♀️ You're Cordially InvitedAround The Dial: 🫧 Clean SlateAround The Dial: 🏹 The Hunting PartyAround The Dial: 🪖 Band Of BrothersAround The Dial: 🧱 ReacherThe Canon: 🍴 The Bear S02.E07: ForksWinner & Loser: 🐲 James NortonWinner & Loser: 🗯️ Dumb fans of InsecureGame Time: 🎬 Adaptation Aptitude TestSUPPORT THE SHOW🔥 Join the EHG Club for bonus episodes, no ads, community Discord and more!🛍️ Shop our merch store!NOTES🗒 Full episode notes can be found on this episode's page on our site🦋 Charles Star on Bluesky💍 Tara's You're Cordially Invited review at Cracked🫧 Tara's Clean Slate review at Cracked🏳️‍⚧️ Donate to Trans Lifeline⚖️ Donate to the Transgender Law Center✊ Donate to Advocates For Trans Equality👨‍💼 The ALAB Series podcast🏈 The City Saint/Country Saint and Hostile Witness podcast⚾️ Baseball Prospectus🎶 The Mark And Sarah Talk About Songs Grammy episode💰 Sweet Relief Musicians' Fund📷 Photo: Glen Wilson / Amazon
