Episode 31 - The Princess Bride

Inconceivable! The Princess Bride is number 19 on The 50 Best Rom-Coms list and returning guest, Michael Andres, returns to the podcast to break down this 80s family classic. Nathan and Michael discuss what makes this movie so memorable as well as frightening (shrieking eels anybody?). The two can’t deny that The Princess Bride is an all around great movie, but listen to find out if they think it should be classified as a romantic comedy. This movie definitely evokes memories of childhood as the two discuss their favorite fairy tales, movie creatures that haunted their dreams and the power of 7 Up and saltine crackers on a sick day. If you believe in true love, this is the episode for you! 🏰 #50BestRomComs
