ep. 41: Brittany gets chills every time she hears "The Man Who Got Away." Brendan was completely taken out of the story by the restoration method.

| Blue Valentine: Real-Life Relationships and Dirty Bathrooms | 17 Feb 2026 | 02:26:30 | |
ep. 21: Housewife Brittany would take absolutely no shit about her cooking. Brendan doesn't appreciate a good bird caw when he hears one. And FYI, it's called a melodica flexible tube. The next film for February's Unhappily Ever After theme is Blue Valentine (2010). P.S. For your viewing pleasure, the dirty toilet scene is around 32:18 in the movie. And upon further investigation, it looks like she's sitting on top of the lid with a pee sound effect added in post. What do you think? You can e-mail us at hello@blackandwhitemovienight.com.

| Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind: Romance, Regret, Repeat | 10 Feb 2026 | 02:50:49 | |
ep. 20: Brittany's not as impulsive as she thinks. Brendan's a true believer in love at first sight. And do you remember why The Mandela Effect is called The Mandela Effect? Neither did we. It's another episode chock-full of Brittany's mispronunciations as we discuss the next film for February's theme of Unhappily Ever After, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004).

| Interstellar: Holes Full of Ghosts, Love, and Amazing Visuals | 27 Jan 2026 | 04:24:03 | |
ep. 18: Brittany is too "slow in the mind" to understand the time slippage. Brendan has seen this movie 20 plus times and it shows. Buckle up, y'all, Brendan couldn't help himself so this is a delightfully long one. Our final film for "Our Favorites-Part 1" theme and the month of January is Interstellar (2014).

| Apocalypto: Zero Wolf Should Watch Peaky Blinders | 20 Jan 2026 | 03:01:38 | |
ep. 17: Brendan's survival skills are unrivaled. This movie somehow reminds Brittany of The Little Mermaid and Peaky Blinders. There's a big, huge, earth-shattering disagreement about a movie prop that prompts Brittany to ask listeners to weigh in. And FYI, quicksand is real; stay calm and lighten your load. Continuing "Our Favorites" theme for January is Brittany's next pick, Apocalypto (2006). -Music by Brendan and Brittany -Credits for the movie being reviewed:
