Description
<p>This week Podstruck celebrates Valentine's Day with another rom-com in our Culture Clash category, this time the 1997 Salma Hayek Matthew Perry movie Fools Rush In. Joining us is Chelsea Devantez (Glamorous Trash, Basic, The Problem with Jon Stewart) who defends this movie with her life, from the Southwest setting to the fact that it's ballsy and progressive for when it was made. She also sheds light on why reading Matthew Perry's memoir will ruin him for you and how this movie was almost derailed by him insisting on doing his own stunt. Plus, Elena tells the story of how following signs changed her life, Chelsea Davison questions whether the WASPy busybody deserved a happy ending too, and we debate whether the Hoover Dam is romantic or a place of death. And it's almost Elena's birthday so go leave us a review to celebrate!</p><br><p>This episode was edited by Nick Duke: https://www.instagram.com/n_dukie/ </p><p>Follow Chelsea Devantez on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chelseadevantez/</p><p>Listen to Glamorous Trash's episode on Matthew Perry's Memoir: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/matthew-perrys-memoir-friends-lovers-and-the-big/id1533722524?i=1000586679944</p><p>Listen to Chelsea's previous episode on Podstruck covering Love & Basketball: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/love-basketball-courting-on-the-court-with/id1770187159?i=1000684995161 </p><p>Follow Podstruck on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/podstruckpod/ </p><p>Follow Podstruck on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@podstruckpodcast </p><p>Join our Patreon and get Meet Cutie Perks: https://www.patreon.com/c/Podstruckpod </p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
