Hey everyone, we're doing things a little differently this month with the Love Story series,

which is sponsored by my book. It's a Love Story soon to celebrate two years of existence

on actual bookshelves and actual stores and on the Amazon. What? This week I'm discussing

Hope Floats with my rocket scientist author friend Rebecca. That's right. She's both right-brained

and left-brained. Of all the romantic movies in the world, I'm glad Rebecca picked Hope Floats.

Why? Exhibit A, Harry Conic Jr. Exhibit B. Harry Conic Jr. in a straw cowboy hat.

Exhibit C. This plot line.

Bertie Pruitt has been humiliated on live television by her best friend who's been sleeping with

Bertie's husband, Bill.

Bertie tries starting over with her daughter Bernice by returning to her small Texas hometown,

but she's faced with petty old acquaintances who are thrilled to see Bertie unhappy, except for her friend Justin, Harry Conach Jr.

As he helps Bertie get back on her feet, love begins to blossom.

Thank the good Lord that love really began to blossom on the dance floor.

Who wouldn't fall in love with some handsome cowboy two-stepping in a barn with a glittery horse saddle

posing as a makeshift disco ball?

Sign me up.

Hey everyone, I'm Lindsay and welcome to the I Hate Green Beans podcast.

During each episode, I'll be discussing television, movies, music, and books with friends

who love pop culture as much as I do.

For those of you wondering, yes, we will be talking about the Bachelor franchise, and

no, I do not want to try your grandmother's famous green bean cassero recipe.

But thanks for offering.
