Welcome to Weepies, pod pals, the movie podcast for people who love to ugly cry about pretend stuff because it beats screaming into a pillow when life gets too real.
Hosts Melanie Tait (veteran cryer) and Kim Lester (reluctant cryer) from A Country Podcast take their friendship to the next level by sharing their favourite weepy movies with each other and inviting their most emotionally intelligent friends to do the same.
In the words of CC Bloom's mum Leona, 'It'll keep you honest' or as Kim/Tom Hanks in A League of Their Own would say 'There's no crying in baseball!'

Who knew Green Card was a weepy? For a teenage Gabrielle Rumble it certainly was, and remained that way well into her twenties. Will it still have the same weepy qualities with 2022 specs on?
This week we look at the classic Peter Weir comedy, starring a post-partum Andie McDowell and Gerard Depardieu in his first role in an American film, launching him to international stardom.
Gabrielle Rumble is the Content Director at ABC Canberra, and one of the favourite friends of Kim and Melanie.
