Summary

On this Friday’s Feels ep, J&J review You’ve Got Mail, the iconic Upper West Side rom-com starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, diving into the movie that kicked off the era of online dating while nostalgically saying goodbye to small bookstores. They explore the magic of falling in love online before apps made dating complicated, from over-30 chat rooms to the classic AOL dial-up sound that defined a generation. From slow, meaningful email connections to Joe Fox’s low-pressure dating style, they debate whether this vintage romance still holds lessons for modern love. Plus, they question if Kathleen was actually forced to fall for Joe after his store puts hers out of business, wondering if romance can survive a little ruthless competition.
