#097: When Harry Met Sally… with Dr. Jo

For our ninety-seventh episode, we’re joined by everyone’s favorite psychologist, Dr. Jo (“Felicity Was Here” podcast), for the second installment in our two-part salute to the late Rob Reiner, focusing on his audio commentary (alongside another late great, Nora Ephron) for the platonic ideal rom-com: 1989’s “When Harry Met Sally…”. Among the things discussed: whether or not New York is a “Star Wars” planet, faking orgasms in front of one’s mother, comparisons to “Casablanca”, the magic of Barry Sonnenfeld, collaborations compared to an everything pizza, memorializing our bipolar princess Carrie Fisher, mastering the comedy cry, being fond of your depression, toting water bottles before it was cool, and so much more.

Ryan’s Recommendations: “Sunset Blvd.” (1950), “American Movie” (1999), and “Thunderbolts*” (2025)
