The Princess Bride

from Get Your Popcorn · host Holly Holiday

Inconceivable! This week, The Princess Bride. Rob Reiner’s classic film full of action, adventure, pirates, giants, sword fights and yes even a little kissing. A staple of my childhood that has grown more beloved over time: its sincere embrace of love and friendship, its playful deconstruction of heroic myths, and the way its humour never undercuts its heart is what cements this into a classic. It’s an episode about storytelling itself the kind passed down, rewatched, and recited by heart ending, of course, as all great love stories should...as you wish.

Shut Up I Love It Sasha Feiler and Joe Cabello Many years ago, Sasha Feiler and Joe Cabello met in line for an improv show. They were young, dumb, and full of it. What followed were comedy shows so explicit, “genitalia” was practically a term of endearment.Fast forward 5 dogs, 6 cats, and way too many weird inside jokes later, Sasha and Joe are no longer young or dumb—but they’re still brimming with you-know-what. Here, they’ve teamed up to bring you a podcast where they interview a guest who passionately defends something universally hated, misunderstood, forgotten, overlooked, Mandela-effected, canceled—you name it. The key? They LOVE it. From toupees... to B-movies... to aliens, psychedelics, and the occasional surprise character, Sasha and Joe are here to spread love to the world that birthed them (but maybe should’ve used protection).So come and get that love because no one else will give it to you like we do.Also, don’t forget to check out the Patreon Bonus version of the show:https://www.patreon.com/c/ShutUpILoveItP Explicit
