I have loved a lot of Lea's projects but hands down favorite movie is Some kind of Wonderful and favorite TV show is Caroline in the City.... Lots of love to all these ladies!! Another great podcast!! 💜💜
Just found your podcast. I have to say I agree Some Kind of Wonderful is one of my all time favorite movies. I have watched it more times then I can count.
Wonderful episode. Lea Thompson is amazing. Love the part where Lea and Amanda both expressed how much they love Star Trek. I hope one day you can have Sir Patrick Stewart on the podcast. That would be totally insane.
Awesome interviews. I was positively entertained.
dont have email on my phone so that is the first thing to do. second is to do what melissa does (but not necessarily how she does it) and then dont sub to new stuff. i get very few emails and i check it everyday so the most i will ever have is when i check it for the first time that day. i think 6 is the max i've gotten but it all depends on when i first check. if its morning? 0-3. afternoon or evening? thats when i get the 3+ emails
i love your bangs
Great guest
❤️😍 this episode! I haven't been watching these lately, but I'm going to again!
So cool to see you on TH-cam. 👍😊
Another great episode and celebrity interview! Doing this episode from Melissa's L.A. home was a nice touch, too!
Omg
I hope I’m the first lol
How much I love you and the character you played on Sabrina ! Love love love for you !!!
Didn't realize that Lea's daughters are the same age as my daughters. Great interview.
Love! Love! Love these podcasts!! Give me the feelings like I’m hanging out with my girlfriends!! Keep them coming!!! 💕💕
Too bad she forgot sign language because on Switched at Birth she did a great job at it. I love that show!!
❤
First of all, I want to express my appreciation to Melissa for inviting her fans into her bright and airy L.A. cottage for this episode-what a privilege! I got giddy when I saw Lea Thompson appear on the screen because she is 80s movie royalty; I can’t count all of the movies I’ve seen that she-and her talented daughters-have starred in. Her conversation with Melissa about delving into directing was fascinating and made me admire both women and their artistic accomplishments even more. That being said, Amanda’s anecdote about bursting into tears when her crush Patrick Stewart entered the room during her trip to the Cotswolds was one of the most memorable moments of the season.
White privilege looks amazing.
Thinking eric stoltz left Lea bc of back to the future his firing or the some kind of wonderful -- bc hoard the duck won
Das ist süß☺
Hey Melissa! Could you invite the beautiful, smart, talented, strong Gina Carano onto the show? God bless!
