Rhett’s rec is very simple: make time for yourself. Isolate yourself with yourself. “You may not be in a position to travel right now...but there’s just something about giving yourself some space; releasing yourself of expectations, responsibilities, the need to accomplish something and just letting yourself off the hook and really spending some time just discovering yourself.”
Three outlandishly wild witches return from 17th-century Salem after they're accidentally conjured up by some unsuspecting pranksters!
Rhett’s rec on episode 261 is a millennial classic: Hocus Pocus. If you have Disney+, it’s available to stream there.
The entirety of episode 237 is literally a rec. Enjoy their list and maybe don’t watch Pulp Fiction with the whole family.

Directed by Marielle Heller. With Tom Hanks, Matthew Rhys, Chris Cooper, Susan Kelechi Watson. Based on the true story of a real-life friendship between Fred Rogers and journalist Lloyd Vogel.
Rhett’s rec in episode 248 was A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. He watched it recently with the family and everybody cried. (Which makes sense because Mister Rogers is a certifiable kind-hearted legend.) It’s currently available on Starz.
Link had seen the documentary Won’t You Be My Neighbor and that’s an incredible look at the life of Fred Rogers. (Listen, I’m going to hype literally anything that has to do with Fred Rogers. It’s in my blood.)
Bonus rec to watch Twister (CLASSIC), make out with your partner in between and then watch A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.

Rhett’s rec in episode 244 is a book that Jessie read and that he started reading. I realize that I’ve shared a link to Amazon for this read, but I strongly encourage y’all to grab this book from a Black-owned bookstore. Here’s a link to a few that sell online as well.
As an aside, if you haven’t read Rhett’s Letter to White Man, or watched him read it aloud, I encourage it.
(Thank you to @cerealbaths for helping me with this!)

Unsurprisingly, Rhett’s rec in episode 240 is Science Mike’s latest book! They both love it, but especially now, it feels incredibly fitting. It’s not “fluffy self-help”, but a compassionate, non-judgmental scientific view on why and how we are the way we are. (Full disclosure: I’ve already bought it and I’m looking forward to reading it.)

Rhett’s rec (and very much not Link’s rec) in episode 255 is a book he was reading at the time of recording the episode--How To Win Friends And Influence People.
🎶and isn’t it ironic...don’t you think?🎶
Just Mercy - #JustMercy - Only In Cinemas
Rhett’s rec in episode 252 is the film Just Mercy, which is based on a true story. (Side note, I have seen this movie and it is both haunting and powerful.) Link also mentioned The Hurricane as another excellent film to watch.
