Road Trippin'

Road Trippin'

Author: Pop Culture Junkie December 5, 2024 Duration: 47:24
This week, Olivia and Shauna give their book reports - how many books they've read this year above and beyond their goal, and not to brag, but we know two people who'll get coupons for a personal pan pizza this year. In other news, it's the holiday season, and for a lot of us, that means traveling, whether to get to or get away from family. And the perfect marriage of pop culture and traveling is the road trip movie. The Junkies talk about what makes a great road trip movie, and name some of the best road trip movies in every genre: comedy, drama, horror, comedy...well, they're mostly comedies because traveling is so much fun! Then, Olivia and Shauna plot out the perfect snack regimen for their upcoming trip to Frisco, and you won't believe what they plan to do with the Bugles.
