"Is this a kissing book?" Yes, Baby Fred Savage, it is. In our premiere episode we visit one of the most beloved cult classics of our time: The Princess Bride. We'll discuss why this movie is so wonderful, the absurdity of the book it's based on, the heart-wrenching motivation behind Inigo Montoya, and how we would dream cast the remake NOT THAT WE ARE CONDONING THAT BEHAVIOR. Sidenote: We're aware that Billy Crystal & Carol Kane didn't win Hugos for their performance (they actually won American Comedy Awards) and that Diego Rivera and Diego Luna are not the same person (please don't tell Wesleigh's college art professors that she mixed them up).
