The Broken Hearts Club: Bottoms Of The Ninth (with Drew Droege)

SUBCATEGORY: LGBTCUTIES

Today we revisit WeHo circa 2000 via The Broken Hearts Club: A Romantic Comedy. And joining us is actor, writer, comedian, and creator of everyone's favorite Chloë Sevigny parody videos, Drew Droege (Heathers, Search Party, Bob's Burgers)! This movie has pretty much every TV star from the 90's and early aughts in it: Zach Braff, Dean Cain, Andrew Keegan, John Mahoney, Timothy Olyphant, Billy Porter, and Justin Theroux, plus a very fun cameo by Jennifer Coolidge. And it was written and directed by megastar producer, Greg Berlanti! Wowowweewah! We cover everything from why a hairdresser can be seen in lieu of a therapist, how important chosen family is, and why you should never date someone you meet at the gym. Plus we discuss why this movie was revolutionary for its time, and whether it still holds up today. Is it a time capsule? Is it heartwarming AF? Is it a public service announcement about the dangers of forming friend groups entirely made up of exes? Yes, yes and yes!
