Mads' Mouth Is Only for Communion (People We Meet on Vacation)
Episode 11
Wednesday, 15 April, 2026
This week, our hosts embark on a few holiday hijinks wrapped up in some beloved rom-com tropes with People We Meet on Vacation (2026). After Madison attempts to soft-launch a new horticulture podcast and hard-launch a war with her local stink bug population, Chelsea reveals that this movie did not, in fact, suck like she thought it would. (It was foolish to have ever doubted Emily Henry IP.) And while Mads sorts through her feelings on this page-to-screen adaptation, Chelsea contemplates whether anyone actually sells condoms in bulk or if that's just a fun filmmakers' gag. Starring Emily Bader and Tom Blyth, with an unforgettable Molly Shannon cameo, this film has 2026 jet-setting off to a fantastic start for our hosts. (Yeah, yeah, we know it's April now, but for the Mads and Chels recording this, it's only January.)Connect With UsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/loveatfirstscreening/Email: loveatfirstscreening@gmail.comProduction Hosts: Chelsea Ciccone and Madison HillMusic: Good StephArtwork: Chelsea CicconeSocial Media: Marissa CicconeAbout the ShowAn examination of classic tropes and iconic characters pits connoisseur against cynic—one romantic comedy at a time.
