Episode 101 - Love Actually

What could be worse than the total agony of being in love? Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew – Ian, Liam, Ethan, and Georgia as we review what Working Title told us was The Ultimate Romantic Comedy in Love Actually. We're going to give this film our absolute truth because at Christmas you tell the truth.  Love actually is all around in our 101st episode as we discuss:

• The mash-up that inspired this story
• Some of the personal circumstances that inspired one actor's performance in the film
• Which two actors/actresses are only 1 day apart in age
• Which actors from this film are second cousins
• What is the genius of the comedy in this film
• Who is eating all the garlic that Jamie is bringing home
• What's with all the fat shaming in this movie
• We get into a debate about Mark's ethics in this film
• Whether or not Love Actually is the Best Film Ever
