  • Summary

  • Sabrina and Torsten go back to a time in which people have jobs at print magazines. No it’s not a historical fantasy, it’s a romcom from the early 2000s! They are not on board with Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey being mean to each other in boring ways, but maybe it’s all for the best since there is a Marvin Hamlisch cameo.

    They talk about a few things you may want to check out: – The inspiration for the movie: https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2023/02/how-to-lose-a-guy-in-10-days-oral-history – Carrie Bradshaw and the question how 2000s era magazine writers could afford things: https://thoughtcatalog.com/stephanie-georgopulos/2011/06/carrie-bradshaws-budget-in-real-numbers/

    Welcome to “In Front of Ira,” the podcast in which historians, friends, and lovers… of rom-coms Sabrina Mittermeier and Torsten Kathke discuss how the romantic comedy genre has evolved, what it can tell us about society, and whether this movie is worth watching.
