Paid in Puke S8E5: Romy and Michele's High School Reunion
In Series 8, Episode 5 of Paid in Puke Podcast, we're revisiting the 1997 hit comedy, Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, starring Mira Sorvino and Lisa Kudrow. It was directed by David Mirkin (Get a Life, Heartbreakers), and written by Robin Schiff, based on her play "The Ladies Room". We discuss what doesn't hold up (some problematic body image messages, casual cruelty as comedy) and what does (pretty much everything else)!
Baxter's 12-year-old, Furn*, joins us to give her tween perspective on this sweet tale of enduring friendship, standing up to bullies, and being true to yourself.
On the Lunchtime Poll, we reveal the songs to which we'd choreograph a little dance.
*Furn went by a different name at this time.
