About the episode
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle Crossroads (2002), the Britney Spears road trip vehicle that earned a 15% on Rotten Tomatoes but turned its $12 million budget into $60 million at the box office. Written by Shonda Rhimes and directed by the woman behind Half Baked and Billy Madison, the film follows three estranged high school friends — played by Spears, Zoe Saldana, and Taryn Manning — as they drive cross-country with a mysterious stranger to chase their dreams. The guys debate Dan Aykroyd's accent, Britney's status as the least convincing nerd in cinema history, and whether a karaoke crowd has ever been that enthusiastic about anything.

About the movie
After eight years apart, three childhood friends - Lucy, Kit, and Mimi - rediscover their friendship on a cross-country trip. With barely a plan, practically no money but plenty of dreams, the girls catch a lift with Mimi's handsome friend Ben in his convertible. Along the way they not only gather experiences that will change their lives, but they also discover how important it is to hold onto their hearts' desires.
