About this episode

The hosts discuss the film Cyrano (2021) and related works while exploring themes of love and romance.

February is a month associated with love, poetry, and romance, so we thought: everybody could probably use a good cry. Along the way we discuss Roxanne (1987), the Dark Angel TV series (2000-2002), Glen Hansard in Once (2006), dinosaurs riding motorbikes, and that pickup artist guy Mr. Mystery (or whatever).  Plus : Allison read the play to prepare!  Remember to microdose your misery, it’s Cyrano (2021)  Questions, comments, requests?
