Now, Ross is taking him film by film through the movies he sadly missed (or smartly avoided) until now. Join us as we look at studio comedies from the late 90s and early 2000s. Week by week, we will tackle one (or two) films as Tripp tries to figure out what made them so funny and Ross explains the context Tripp avoided.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-11T16:19:59.097830+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-tripp-through-comedy-7045072"},"episode":{"title":"Crossroads","slug":"crossroads","published_at":"2026-01-22T07:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-tripp-through-comedy-7045072/crossroads","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-tripp-through-comedy-7045072","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/crossroads--69542896","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/69542896/08bbf5ee_e72b_ab98_3a4e_eb1a4d9136ce.mp3","summary":"Our exit today has us realizing that we’re not a girl but not yet a woman. This week, we are talking about the Britney Spears vehicle Crossroads, written by Shonda Rhimes and directed by Tamra Davis.While we spend a lot of time discussing Britney Spears (and defending her from our greatest enemy, the Razzie Awards), we also talk Shondaland, the Nintendo Power Glove, road trip movies, karaoke song choices, punk rock, bizarre age differences, Joan Jett, movies as commercials, Glitter, musicians turned actors, and the real life parallels of this film. Plus, Ross is baffled by the \"reality\" of the film and even more so by Tripp's bizarre film recommendation. And somehow, we talk Zoe Saldana without Tripp singing \"Eeeeemeeeeeeeliaaaa!\"Thememusic by Jonworthymusic.Powered by RiversideFM. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CFF Films⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Ross and friends. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies We've Covered on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies Recommended on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd.","meta_description":"Our exit today has us realizing that we’re not a girl but not yet a woman.
