183: Twilight

So in the first installment in the saga film series, a teenage girl moves to a small town in the Pacific Northwest and falls in love.

with a vampire.

Falls in love in quotes.

A vampire who tries his best to keep her safe from other vampires and to remain chaste instead of succumbing to his thirst for her blood.

Now, let's stop here.

Have we seen this movie before? I don't know why I'm asking both of you, but I might as well.

I don't know either.

We know what it is.

Yes.

One or two of these I saw with you.

I believe, because the last ones I saw in college.

Yeah, I wasn't 100% sure, but we'll talk about that.

Listeners, I want you to know that Andrea is here.

You might not hear her for most of this episode, but she is present to hear this conversation.

So we don't prolong this.

Let's jump into the pop culture segment, because if any movie has a pop culture segment, this one does.

There's so much content.

So much discourse is hard to parse through.

All right.

So the author here is Stephanie Meyer.

There's really not much on her, though she does have an unauthorized biography out there.

I'm not reading that.

So essentially, she went to BYU.

She is from Arizona, I think.

She met her husband while in college.
