This episode marks a fresh season, and is the turning of a new (music) page if you will. Together we talk through our recent experience at a Jose Gonzalez concert which had more twists and turns than Walter Mitty cruising down a mountain in Iceland. Hard to believe, right?! Well, give it a listen and see for yourself.
On this final installation of They Fell in Love on Set, we embark and are quickly thrown Overboard with both Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. While never married, these two lovebirds have been together for over 30 years and prove love is worth some smelly clothes and a messy house!
Picture this: you're sent to your dad's for the summer with your annoying little brother to a small beachy town. Little did Miley Cyrus know she would meet the love of her life, Liam Hemsworth, in Nicholas Spark's stunning flick, The Last Song. Hopefully your attention span will last longer than their relationship did!
It would be so NICE! We take a Christmas break to unwind, get a glass of cold egg nog and cozy up with Jack Black?! Even you would want to home exchange with him. You know it, you love it, the HOLIDAY!
In this episode, we take a 'peek' into the lives of the then-married couple, Tom Cruise & Nicole Kidman in Far and Away. Some fist-fighting, a chicken factory, and a sneaky kiss in an abandoned house later, and we are truly speechless. Come join us!
Put on your wife-beater and your drop-crotch jeans as we get down & dirty with Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan, who fell in love on the set of Step Up. You too will be convinced that this was Channing's audition for both Dear John & Magic Mike. The rest is history!

We made it! In the final episode of Season 3, we wrap up by discussing Regina King and her stellar performance in If Beale Street Could Talk. That's right - she wasn't always a diner manager in the Valley. You won't want to miss this!
We meet again for an episode of Who Knew They'd Win an Oscar. Brie Larson both scared and charmed us in Hoot, and she sure fills the space as Ma in Room.
Welcome back to Who Knew They'd Win an Oscar. Can you believe Anne's song and dance in Ella Enchanted would land her the Academy Award in Les Mis. What would Hugh do, if you were in Anne's position?
