Starting a Podcast with My sister… Yes Please!

What started as a late night chat after Maggie finished watching (for the 10th time) Nobody Wants This on Netflix (iykyk) turned into a full-blown brainstorm session on potential podcast ideas!

It was natural for us to land on the idea of doing a movie rewatch podcast of our favorite movies because we already spend a bulk of our chats dissecting films, ruminating over pop-culture, and sharing tid-bits about the entertainment industry! Plus, we were both frustrated by the lack of coverage of our favorite movies… so here we are! Ready to yap!

Honorable Mention! Maggie’s first pet and the most handsome cat. He loved treats, long naps, and Jersey Mike’s turkey. He showed Prue the ropes and was the best companion. Rest in peace, sweet boy.
