The Craft vs Practical Magic: Which 90s Witchy Classic Did It Better?

It's time to grab your broomsticks, Midlifers! 🧙‍♀️

This week we're getting seriously witchy as we put two iconic 90s movies head-to-head in our latest Who Did It Better Battle: The Craft vs Practical Magic.

We're taking a nostalgic trip back to the 90s to revisit the fashion, friendships, witches, magic and unforgettable moments that made both movies cult classics. From Neve Campbell, Fairuza Balk and the teenage coven of The Craft to Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman's sisterly magic in Practical Magic, we're asking the ultimate question: which movie did it better?

And there's a twist… because the movie we would have chosen in our teens isn't necessarily the one we'd choose now! As two women firmly in midlife, our perspective on these movies has definitely changed.

We're also talking burgers — from Macca's childhood memories and the legendary "two all-beef patties" jingle to sliders, pulled brisket, fancy $29 cheeseburgers and the question: how the hell are burgers so expensive now?!

Plus, we chat about growing up with your best friend's family, older-brother crushes, Gen X makeup habits and the things that somehow make more sense when you're in your 40s and 50s.

And with the highly anticipated Practical Magic sequel on the horizon, there's never been a better time to revisit the original and decide whether the magic still holds up.

It's nostalgia, friendship, 90s movies, food and plenty of laughs - basically everything you'd expect from The Midlifers.
