Agents of SMOOCH

Welcome to our last mission to say goodbye to the Agency. It seems fitting that we do this on Valentine’s Day, exactly six years after we started. We’ve gathered a collection of Agents to reminisce about some favourite episodes, provide recommendations for what we should have talked about, and get sentimental about memories of the past 6 years. We are glad you are here to join us on our final love fest to celebrate what was and where you can continue to find us on the Incomparable mission. We love our listeners! Thank you for being Agents of SMOOCH with us. Annette Wierstra with Moisés Chiullán, Kirsten Goruk, Sandra Wong, Kathy Campbell, Shelly Brisbin, Micheline Maynard and James Thomson.

Our Agents just love Paris and Rome, so we are returning to Emily in Paris for season 5. This time, we’ve got a new Agent joining us on this mission. We’ve put on our most fashionable spring outfits, but we can’t tell a real Fendi bag from a fake. Join us as we overanalyze our not-so-guilty pleasure. Annette Wierstra with Micki Maynard and Kirsten Goruk.

We start the new year with a mission to celebrate one of our favourite Rob Reiner pictures: When Harry Met Sally. Although it’s been a while since our agents last watched this movie, it remains a strong example of a 90s romantic comedy. Join us to celebrate the fashion, the music, the supporting cast, and finally answer the question: can men and women be friends? Annette Wierstra with Shelly Brisbin and Micki Maynard.

Is the Return of Doctor Mysterio the most romcom episode of Doctor Who? We think so. We’ve got superheroes, secret identities, snooping reporters, and invading aliens. This calls for Doctor Mysterio! Join our Agents for this Boxing Day mission and relish the 12th Doctor as matchmaker while he saves the world again. Annette Wierstra with Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky.

This year is our 5th annual Holiday Movie Bingo Marathon. For this mission, our Agents watch three Christmas movies, including An Alpine Holiday, Merry Christmas Ted Cooper!, and A Keller Christmas Vacation. We unintentionally chose the theme of siblings, but there are still miscommunications, almost smooches, and European settings. And we learn that just about anyone can climb mountains in the Alps if you carry your yoga mat. Grab your Bingo Cards and get ready to play with us. Annette Wierstra with Erika Ensign, Steven Schapansky, Kirsten Goruk and Sandra Wong.
