It is time to kick off Erin's annual Birthday Month celebration with a look at the Rob Reiner classic, Stand by Me! Sara joins Erin to discuss how well the film holds up, why it spoke to an entire generation, favorite scenes, the core group of characters, and they honor the late River Phoenix. Trigger warnings for homophobia, ableist language, child abuse and neglect, vomiting, and leeches.
