Whether you call them romcoms, rom-coms, or kissy ha-has, we love this genre, and we want you to love it, too. This is RomCom Commentary, and we are here to analyze and uplift the genre of the beautiful, entertaining romcom.
Dana Schwartz and Max Genecov do deep dives into the movies we all love and love to hate.
Jessica Richards and Chloe Jacobs love/ hate RomComs. Listen to them (and guests) breakdown their favorites!

Welcome to To All the Romcoms I've Seen Before! This is a fortnightly film review podcast, discussing the under-appreciated genre of romantic comedies, both critically and comically.
Join Katie and Lena as they revisit classic romantic comedies and their effect on...everything! Your quirky best friends/leading ladies/podcast hosts discuss the impact the films have had on their lives and how they fit into the social and political landscape of the modern world. Each week they chat with guests about fave points throughout the story, philosophize about the essential elements of a great movie, and share romcommoms (romcom moments) from their own lives. It's the RomCom Effect!
And with that, we enter into the final four movies of our tournament! Our good friend Howie joins us to discuss two spectacular movies, 2020’s Palm Springs and 2000’s Love and Basketball. That’s right, one of these movies actually has sports in it! And we loved it! Join Ruth, Kristen and Howie to discuss the talent of J.K Simmons, the history of th…
