Who wants to see a dead body? We do! Stand by Me, a Rob Reiner classic from 1986 and based on the the novella by Stephen King called "The Body", follows four 12 year old boys during the summer of 1959 as they go on a hunt for the body of missing classmate Ray Brower but more importantly go searching for the meaning of male friendship! And they find it! But they also find leeches! Spoooooky.  Sweety couldn't remember seeing this film, but Sweetie has fond memories of watching a movie that she knew was probably a bit old for her (it is rated R) despite it featuring preteens and enjoying it immensely.  We talk about our life long goal of someday finding a dead body, a lot about the Stephen King novella versus the movie adaptation, how we got some mad toxic masculinity in this film which at this point WE ARE OVER, and what is the hell is a goocher? I don't shut up. I grow up. And when I look at you I throw up! Nahhhhh!
