Summary
"I am gonna do what I wanna do! And you know what? I don't need your permission to do it!"
What if your grandparents magically turned back into teenagers, and they were so hot that it caused chaos in your high school? And what if you look exactly like your grandma did at your age, so this magical regression inspires some twin magic hijinks? This week, The Wives Colangelo are joined by Aaron Perine of Free Space to talk about the only movie to feature all three Mowry siblings, SEVENTEEN AGAIN. Let's talk about the Tia/Tamera/Tahj trifecta, the lack of "fun" coming-of-age movies with Black protagonists, and outline all of the moments that explain why this movie was made by Showtime and not the Disney Channel.

| 0:06.9 | cinema about or marketed towards teen girls. I'm one of your hosts, B.J. Calangelo, and I'm joined |
| 0:13.4 | by my wife. Harmony Calangelo, a trans woman who grew up watching none of these movies. Is today's |
| 0:19.3 | movie a Queen Bee? Or are we killing the teen dream? |
| 0:23.1 | Get in loser. |
| 0:24.3 | We're analyzing the movies. |
| 0:25.6 | People make fun of us for loving. |
| 0:28.1 | I don't want to be your merch, girl. |
| 0:31.7 | I want to be your goddamn idol. |
| 0:34.6 | And I don't want to have to work twice as hard for the same motherfucking |
| 0:40.3 | tidal but I realize that I probably won't be so lucky. |
| 1:00.0 | How mad do you think the Disney Corporation was when they made Zach Ephron 17 again? |
| 1:10.8 | And they had to use a number |
| 1:12.4 | because spelling out 17 in 17 again was already taken by this movie. |
| 1:18.1 | I'm sure they weren't pleased, but listen, that was, that was like the late 2000s. |
| 1:22.9 | We were using like AIM Leet speak. |
| 1:25.5 | So I think 17 is just saving everyone time that's a good point because |
| 1:29.5 | i'm definitely that asshole who puts the number 13 and 13 ghosts and the number seven in seven |
