BIG GIRLS DON’T CRY

Season 4: The Buffs Learn to Love – A Rom Com Summer

Episode 5

Hosts: Matt and Joe

Movie: 13 Going on 30 (2004)

This week, the Buffs get flirty, thirty, and a little bit dirty with 13 Going on 30—the body-swap rom-com that dares to ask: what if your dream life isn’t what you thought it’d be? Matt and Joe dig into the nostalgia-fueled fantasy, the killer soundtrack, and whether “Thriller” flash mobs should ever be allowed at office parties.

It’s a sweet, silly movie about missed chances, girlhood dreams, and the dangers of dating your childhood crush’s evil boss. We talk time travel rules (again), mid-2000s fashion crimes, and ask the big question: did Jenna Rink really learn anything?
