DB and Bre dive into 50 First Dates, where Adam Sandler’s Henry courts Drew Barrymore’s Lucy… every single day. They break down the film’s take on love, consent, and the tricky territory of dating someone who can’t remember you. Is it sweet, or just deeply unsettling?

DB and the delightful Florence Bark and Reed Amber from Come Curious dissect Twilight, the film that made eternal love seem… exhausting! They question the appeal of a 100-year-old high schooler, debate whether they’re Team Edward, Team Jacob, or just Team Therapy, and wonder if this series might be to blame for all our worst relationship choices. And despite all the cringe, our brave hosts ask... why does this stupid movie still turn us on?!
