    We're back! Thank you for hanging in there through our summer hiatus.

  • 94: Mrs. Doubtfire & Matilda
    Mar 13 2026

    It's a Mara Wilson double feature today as we cover two 1990s classics, Mrs. Doubtfire and Matilda. Join us as we squee over tiny overalls and swoon over mixed plaids.

    Editor's note: JoJo's lovely kids were part of our recording session, and as a result there was a lot of background noise to be edited out. I ran it through a noise remover, and so at times she sounds a little over-processed and robotic, but trust me, it sounds better than it did! Thank you for your understanding.
