Tune in for an episode that is equal parts hilarious, touching, and enlightening. 

Remember, in the world of Fiction Fixation, no story is safe from the hilarious scrutiny.

A Husband-In-Law and A Hot Mess Teacher (Movie Recap, One True Love)

Courtney loads her cynicism and sharp-wit tongue. THIS EPISODE IS AWESOME. Join us for a hilarious, insightful, and sometimes ridiculous recap of a story of TWO true loves--one who comes back from the dead. What IS love, anyway? And how do we know if it's going to last? These are deep questions we don't answer in this episode, but we do answer much more ridiculous questions you would never ask outloud.

We delve into the messy, relatable, and sometimes cringe-worthy world of a couple going through a breakup. From the awkward dinner parties to the petty post-breakup shenanigans.

As the fictional couple therapists, we dissect the characters' choices and actions, while sprinkling in our own absurd but surprisingly insightful observations. Expect lots of laughter, ridiculous analogies, and a whole lot of fun as we navigate through the ups and downs of love gone awry.

So, whether you've seen the movie "The Break-Up" or not, this episode promises to entertain with its offbeat and comedic approach to dissecting relationships on the big screen. Tune in to Fiction Fixation for an unforgettable session of laughter, banter, and some surprisingly good advice (maybe). Grab your popcorn and join Courtney and Rose on this delightfully entertaining journey as they cosplay as couple therapists and hilariously recap "The Break-Up"!

It’s VeeOLa Not VioLA (Movie Recap, She’s The Man)

Get ready for this blast from the past. Courtney and Rose recap another nostalgic early 2000s movie, She's the Man staring Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum. While our recap is pretty amazing, you will have to sit through an hour of Courtney and Rose pronouncing the main characters name differently and never calling each other out for it. Regardless, early 2000 movies are our bread and butter so get ready for a hilarious episode.

It’s Giving...*Sociopath* (Movie Recap, Sweet Home Alabama)

Have you experienced the Mandela effect of thinking Sweet Home Alabama is a sugary-sweet love story? Courtney and Rose are here to set the record straight as they dissect the absurdity of a young woman with a sociopathic streak (blowing up cats with dynamite - seriously?!) who adopts a fake identity to tackle the brutal NYC fashion industry. 

As if that's not enough, she somehow manages to ensnare the mayor's son, all while keeping her already-married status a well-guarded secret. Who needs Jerry Springer when you have Sweet Home Alabama?

Tune in to hear Courtney and Rose's razor-sharp wit to questionable plot twist, every laughable decision, and every moment that makes you wonder if this is some sort of dark comedy gone wrong.
