Do you hear that?!  Shhhhhh, listen closely.  IT'S THE SOUND OF CHRISTMAS!  Join the ladies as they craft the 2020 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket. If you thought last year's Hallmark vs Lifetime bracket was nuts, well just you wait!  We're bringing another channel into the fold. This year, our match-ups include movies on the Hallmark Channel, Lifetime AND Hallmark Movies & Mysteries!  Three channels compete but only one movie will take the crown!

This is a monumental episode for All The Feels - our first ever interview with a Hallmark Hallstar! Endlessly charming actor and activist Antonio Cayonne joins Dory & Mel for an open and honest discussion regarding Hallmark's diversity issue, the exciting addition of CEO Wonya Lucas, the Black Lives Matter movement, and even a smattering of Christmas in Evergreen and Mighty Ducks! We are forever grateful to Antonio for sharing his time, knowledge, and experience with us and hope you all enjoy this conversation as much as we did.

The Hallmark Podcast Avengers have assembled! In this episode, Dory, Mel, Erika, and our friend Rachel from The Hallmarkies Podcast discuss the latest Hallmark and Lifetime movie news, including Crown Media's new CEO, Wonya Lucas.

We also preview Hallmark's highly anticipated "Summer Nights" movie, Wedding Every Weekend, and discuss a bunch of other things that won't fit in this description.

With no Hallmark premieres to cover, Mel, Dory, and Erika continue their discussion on Hallmark's diversity problem, as well as trouble behind the scenes of their new favorite show, Freeform's The Bold Type - and spiral into a symposium on Netflix's Baby-Sitters Club reboot and the beautiful fiery anger of The Chick's latest album, Gaslighter. Plus, more Sweet Magnolias! This episode is a long and winding road to nowhere, but hopefully an enjoyable one?

In this supersized episode, Dory, Mel, and Erika discuss the murder of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter revolution, Hallmark's problematic response, and how our favorite Hallmark celebs have risen (or failed to rise) to the occasion. Warning: there is a lot of cursing in this one.

It’s nearly June, but the ladies of All The Feels still have Spring fever. In this episode, Mel, Erika and Dory, along with Mel’s new dog, Bones, discuss Hallmark’s 2020 Spring Fling movies: Just My Type, You’re Bacon Me Crazy, Fashionably Yours and Nature of Love.

It's still a national emergency out there, but this week we have a real treat - Erika emerges from maternity leave in a triumphant return to the pod! The ladies are back to discuss pandemic survival, what Hallmark stars would make the ideal partners in quarantine (and which would send us screaming) - plus some very special birthday shoutouts from our soon to be best friends.

This week, Dory and Mel are joined by movie critic and host of the Hallmarkies Podcast, Rachel Wagner. In this episode, the ladies take a trip down memory lane and share some of their favorite older Hallmark movies that you can find on Hallmark Drama or the Hallmark Movies Now app. Be sure to listen to the Hallmarkies podcast for all things Hallmark, and check out Rachel's movie reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.

The plan was for special guest Rachel (from the Hallmarkies podcast) to join Mel & Dory for a deep dive into classic Hallmark...but the ladies can't help but talk pandemic, instead sharing more tips and recommendations that may help bring joy (or at least some sanity) during the world's longest indoor recess. So join us for another round of Surviving Self Isolation! We'll be back to talk more Hallmark next week! We promise this time!

It's a national crisis out there, one that not even hours and hours (and hours) of Hallmark can sooth away - but man, are we trying! Mel and Dory gather (remotely)to discuss what is keeping them sane in these trying times. If you want to skip the gloomy current events talk, we get it, jump ahead to about 13:40. Stay safe, everyone!
