Sleepless in Seattle with Talia Koren: Rom-Com Vom
About this episode
Talia Koren joins DB to discuss the gender dynamics and obsessive themes in the film 'Sleepless in Seattle'.
This episode originally aired on Sex Ed with DB ! In Sleepless in Seattle, a woman hears a stranger’s voice on the radio and decides she has to be with him. A few cross-country flights, some light stalking, and one dramatic Empire State Building finale later. Was it a recipe for true love? Or just another rom-com ignoring boundaries in the name of "destiny?" In this episode, I joined DB to unpack the film’s gender dynamics, its borderline obsessive premise, and why rom-coms always overlook the stable, reliable guy.
