Episode 175: Fools Rush In
from Large Marge Sent Us
Wise men say, only fools rush in. Well you know what? Listen to the wise men because love at first sight is bulllllshit! We watched Fools Rush In guys, the 1997 rom comedy starring Matthew Perry and Salma Hayek! HBO had this on hard rotation when we were in middle school and we couldn't help rooting for the unlikely couple of fiesty, artsy "I have five brothers don't mess with me" Isabel, and melba toast WASP Alexa Whitman. This is not your average romantic comedy. We got outta wed lock pregnancy, Mexican/American cultural differences, a tiny dog named Cujo, and some really unflattering suits on Matthew Perry! We'll talk about why we can't stop watching this movie, even 20+ years later, what makes a cool girl cool, and try to determine what Isabel actually saw in Alex Whitman. Was it his baggy clothes? His job as a field manager for really horrible clubs? Who knows!
