Every Rom Com 45: About Time

This week on Every Rom Com, we’re joined by Jason Kleeberg of the Force Five Podcast, as we talk about one of his favorite romantic comedies - “About Time.” We’ll contemplate the beauty of ordinary days; explore the careers of Domhnall Gleeson, Bill Nighy, and Rachel McAdams; and we’ll answer the question: what would you do if you could rewind and redo your own life? All this and much more as we continue our Time Travel and Time Loop series!
