Hey, it's Rachel Martin. I'm the host of Wildcard from NPR. For a lot of my years as a radio host,

silence sort of made me nervous. That pause before an answer, because you don't know what's going

on on the other side of the mic. But these days, I love it. Hmm. Ah. Gosh. Give me a minute.

Yeah, yeah. Think. Listen to the Wildcard podcast only from NPR.

Hey, before we get to the show, hey, you.

Yes, you with the impeccable taste in podcast.

If Pop Culture Happy Hour has ever helped you win a group chat debate, find a hit series before everyone else, or pretend you saw that movie, you definitely

didn't, we've all done it, do us a solid and leave the show a review wherever you listen to

podcasts. It helps more people find us. It helps us make the show even better for you,

and we thank you.

Have you ever found yourself completely caught up in a film only to find after the lights come up that the story didn't make any damn sense at all, yet you loved it anyway?

We're talking about those movies that leave you with two simultaneous feelings.

That was great.

And wait, what?

I'm Linda Holmes.

And I'm Glenn Weldon.

And today we're recommending three great movies with very, very silly plots on Pop Culture Happy Hour from NPR.

It's just us today.

So great movie, silly plot.

That's the subject.

Now, I want to be clear, we're not talking about, like, minuscule plot holes or your weird little nitpicks.

We're not doing IMDB goofs.
