105: A PhD in Sexual Innuendo, Also Taco Sausage: The Half of It

One Dry Kiss: An Unofficial Rom-Com Podcast

We are stretching into our month of movie Growing Pains and our next selection is The Half of It. It stars Ellie Chu, played by Leah Lewis, a smart, quiet, immigrant, high school student that is struggling to keep her family afloat. Out of desperation she accepts money from Paul Munsky, played by Daniel Diemer in exchange for writing a love letter to his crush Aster Flores, played by Alexxis Lemire. This gives them both much more than they bargained for. In this episode: we find the most ODK phrase ever uttered in a movie, discuss ghost hunting with cat toys and contemplate why you'd choose Diego Rivera over Frida Khalo as your handle. This movie is a literal sausage fest (the tasty kind you eat) and we are here for it, we hope you are too and join us as we explore The Half of It.
