You Know The One

You Know the One is the movie podcast where Gen-X sisters Rachel Roberts and Pam Wallace revisit films from the last 60 years and explore how they shaped us — not just as a generation, but as a culture. Together, they create a space that feels like a conversation you didn’t know you needed — part film podcast, part cultural time capsule, part shared remembering. From iconic 80s and 90s movies to cult classics and forgotten gems, each episode blends nostalgia, pop culture history, behind-the-scenes trivia, and thoughtful conversations about why these stories still matter - or do they? Along with a generous portion of sisterly banter, these are the movies we grew up with, rewound, argued about, and never quite let go of. If you love classic films, Gen X culture, and movie podcasts with heart, you’re in the right place. So pull up a chair and grab your popcorn - it's time for You Know the One. Let's get into it!
