The Swap (2016)
Ah, it’s a tale as old as time. Boy meets girl, they decide they’d rather have each other’s lives, then their attachment to their cellphones means that magic is real and can totally swap their bodies. Hmm…actually that part is all new, and it must mean we are covering The Swap! That’s right, this year might almost be over (despite the fact that this episode is actually for November), but we’ve gotta watch these two try and get back in their bodies first. And, wouldn’t you know it, it actually ends up being way more compelling than most body-swap stories you might be familiar with. Listen in to find out how!
Emma has Wicked brain rot and retells her romantic history.
Lucas is really Lasso-pilled and takes a stand on his towel usage.
