There is one thing true to all relationships… Breakups are never fun when they occur. Even the most amicable of severed ties can be stressful and depressing for all parties involved. Through the avenue of storytelling breakups can be made a little bit easier when we can laugh at someone else’s misery. That is the main topic of this episode of Parallel Quest through discussing the film Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The guys talk about this 2008 film as well as the challenge of home repairs, smoothies we don’t like, the challenge of trying to sleep, and other interesting things that happened in the year 2008.Watch the show on YouTubeBuy Zach’s newest book, Something Strange at Grandma’s House: https://www.steellakestudio.com/booksSign up for our E-MAIL LIST: https://www.steellakestudio.com/emailTIMESTAMPS0:00 Welcome0:48 Quick Audio Disclaimer2:56 Home Repair Struggles10:00 Indian Food and Smoothies15:00 “Sleeping In” on Weekends24:00 Hard Copies of Terror Town (Link in Description)29:00 New Show Coming Soon for Steel Lake Studio32:30 Main Topic: Forgetting Sarah Marshall34:00 2008 State of the World39:45 The Housing Crisis and The Big Short46:00 Interesting Stats from 200849:50 Why Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a Great Breakup Film51:45 Plot Summary59:00 Critical Reception1:02:00 The Impact on the Stars’ Careers1:06:00 Aldous Snow/Russel Brand1:12:00 Appreciating the Main Character1:18:00 A “Fun” Way to Process through a Breakup1:21:00 Our Two Favorite QuotesThank you so much for checking out Parallel Quest.
