And now they're back with a new show that premieres Tuesday, January 28th on the Exactly Right Network.
It's called Dear Movies, I Love You. Please welcome Millie DeCherico and Casey O'Brien.
Guys, could you tell we were reading off a teleprompter?
Oh, it felt really good, though. Pros. We're just pros at this.
How would you guys synopsize what you're doing on your podcast? Or, like, what's your elevator pitch of the podcast? What's the vibe?
Yeah, well, you know, the name of the podcast is Dear Movies, I Love You. So it is kind of, you know, we say it's having a crush on movies. It's an infatuation with movies. It's a sincere celebration of film and film culture. And we just want it to be accessible to everyone. People because, you know, Millie and I, we can get in the weeds about like art house bullshit, but we like but we want to talk about it in a way that's like fun. And we also we like highbrow. We like really lowbrow, too. And so we want it to be like an inviting, fun, cute podcast. Yeah. Millie, anything to add to that?
Well, you know, I think I'm gonna get deep, perhaps a little deeper than Casey's just revealed. I personally, when I was, I'm kidding. You're not the himbo of the podcast, by the way, you're fine. You're not a film himbo, as I've heard in the past. I really, I think over the past couple years, especially during COVID, especially during, I don't know, just like living and life and bad news and, you know, things happening in the world, I started really thinking about like my relationship to movies because, you know, as a person who like lives alone and, you know, a lot of and has worked in movies for over 20 years, I started thinking about, do I have an emotional relationship with movies? Of course they're entertaining, of course it's my job, of course it's an intellectual pursuit, I guess. But what's my emotional relationship to it? Do they do things for me? Are they my comfort? Are they my partner, for crying out loud? I mean, honestly.
And I started thinking about it in that way where I was like, I don't know, I think they are. It's the one thing that has consistently stayed in my life that has been my refuge from all the bullshit, right? And there's some kind of, I don't know, I have this like, you know, deep feeling of appreciation for like what the art form, I guess, if you want to call it that has done for my life in that emotional kind of way. And so that's why I think when we were like, how, what's the vibe? You know, I was like, I don't know. We just love movies. We're like in love with movies. We, we, we like have crushes on movies. And Casey like immediately was like, of course, like I get it, you know? And so I don't know. I think that that's, Sort of, I think what the podcast is also about is it's about sort of like being in love with this wacky world that we're in and, you know, just sort of, I don't know, like being very earnest and sincere about it, so.
