    🎧 Episode 3 – Teen Wolf: Werewolves, Basketball & Boof

    Michael J. Fox plays a high schooler (??) who becomes a werewolf, dunks on his classmates, and somehow still treats sweet Boof like garbage. Jeremy relives a childhood favorite, while Lauren questions everything — from car surfing and Civil War school plays to Pamela’s wolf kink. Justice for Boof!

    Episode 2 – "Mannequin": Love, Lust & Late Capitalism (But Mostly Mannequins)
    💋🎬💀

    In this episode of So I Married a Millennial, Jeremy forces Lauren to watch the 1987 cult-classic(?) Mannequin, a movie about love, ancient Egyptian curses, department store espionage, and definitely a man getting way too friendly with a storefront dummy.

    We dive into the questionable casting of Kim Cattrall as an ancient Egyptian time traveler, the unapologetic fabulousness of Hollywood Montrose, and the very real possibility that the director was, uh, inspired by a little too much time in a Macy’s stockroom.

    Featuring:
    🛍️ ’80s fashion montage breakdowns
    🎶 The power ballad that somehow got an Oscar nod
    🐶 The bulldog that was wrongly labeled a pug (Lauren is still mad)
    🔥 Hot takes on mannequin-consensual relationships

  • Weird Science (1985)
    May 14 2025

    🎙️ Ep 1: "Weird Science" – AI Girlfriends, '80s Pimples, and Unexpected Missile Launches 💻👙🚀

    In the premiere of So I Married a Millennial, Jeremy introduces Lauren to the gloriously unhinged 1985 John Hughes “classic” Weird Science — a movie about two 15-year-old boys who build a sexy AI genie woman using a computer, a Barbie doll, and absolutely no understanding of how computers work.

    Lauren has... questions. Like, Why is Robert Downey Jr. here? Why is the internet a bowling alley? Why does Lisa have godlike powers? And why is everyone okay with the fact that she’s actively grooming children?!

    This episode includes:
    🧠 A deep dive into 1980s techno-magic logic
    👾 AI ethics (but make it horny and neon)
    🎭 Robert Downey Jr. without veneers
    💄 A lingerie montage featuring actual children (???)
    💥 A surprise missile — because, why not?
    🐷 And yes, Bill Paxton turns into a literal turd monster.
