In this Christmas-spirited episode of their special “Rom Com Road-Trip” series, our hosts have been blessed with a visit from someone at the top of Santa's nice list: Caroline Bourke (@carrottlime on TikTok and @carolinekbourke on Instagram). With a story inspired by Anna Vaus's song, "Halloween on Christmas Eve" the LAFS team takes Caroline on a magical sleigh ride of Christmas magic, dive bars, and accidental love with the star of your 17-year-old dreams. While honesty is always the best policy, our main character Georgia finds herself in a mess of her own making. Perhaps, though, she may be able to dig herself out of the snowbank of lies she finds herself in. With a stellar cast including Jaz Sinclair and Josh Hutcherson, what more could you want? Cozy up to this one with a cup of cocoa and perhaps a pet cow.

In this episode of their special “Rom Com Road-Trip” series, Madison takes Chelsea to a cult-- wait... no. Not a cult. I swear, it's really not a cult. It's just a co-op living community. Together, wearing jewel-toned linen outfits, Madison reveals an over 55 romance to Chelsea in an attempt to make up for forcing her to watch that one Diane Keaton movie (you know the one). Your husband may die, but your opportunities for love with a hot lumberjack don't have to. Starring our Lord and Savior, Laura Dern and the smoking hot Cheyenne Jackson, LAFSters will get to sink their teeth into a slightly unconventional love story that is still cookie-cutter rom-com perfection.

In this episode of their special “Rom Com Road-Trip” series, Chelsea and Madison take a lakeside vacation with a family that's not too thrilled about their granddaughter's recent engagement. Starring Hailee Steinfeld and Ruby Barker, our hosts endure meddling rich folks, kayaking mishaps, and a non-consensual, fireside guitar solo or two. It's a tense gathering, but hey, they're just along for the ride.

In this episode of their special “Rom Com Road-Trip” series, Madison goes with the spirit of the topic and shows up a little less than sober... Don't worry, the whole driving part of this is only metaphorical and she somehow ends up putting this story together more coherently than she has told others in the past. In order to fulfill Chelsea's request of drunken wedding shenanigans, Madison presents a story of a professional bridesmaid-for-hire, a reluctant bride, and a gut-wrenching one liner that has Chelsea stop in her tracks. Also, if anyone wants to hire Madison as a bridesmaid, she is available. Starring Jeanine Mason and Jameela Jamil, listen as we actualize Chelsea's dream of seeing a wedding fall to shambles.
In this episode of their special “Rom Com Road-Trip” series, Chelsea has a lot to say about ambiguously fruit-flavored toaster pastries. Oh, but don't worry, she definitely gets around to telling a story at some point (even if she does get lost in the spooky potential and forgets the Com for this Rom). A witch on the run from her ex-boyfriend and a magical mafia reunites unexpectedly with her estranged sister and her college girlfriend in this seasonal second-chance romance starring Madelaine Petsch and Kaniehtiio Horn. Crank up the AC, because everybody knows there's nothing hotter than swords, daggers, and watching the love of your life annihilate your enemies!

In this episode of their special “Rom Com Road-Trip” series, Madison takes Chelsea on possibly the most banal trip yet. Like, seriously all we saw was corn and then Madison started ranting about hornworms? Not her finest work, but if you are into that kind of thing, she does tell a semi-decent tale of a marriage of convenience. Starring Kat Graham and an alarming number of male characters--seriously Mads, it's called the Bechdel test-- LAFSters can look forward to one night stands with Spider-Man, ways around your homophobic grandpa's will, and a lobster baby. What more could you want? Probably a lot, but this'll have to do.

In this episode of their special “Rom Com Road-Trip” series, Madison invites Chelsea to ride to an unknown town to a romance bookstore where love is brewing alongside the oatmilk lattes. Of course, it can't always be easy to be vulnerable and open yourself up to something amazing. Starring Jamie Clayton and Raymond Ablack, it's a classic feel-good will they, won't they that'll have you wishing that you, too, were a secret oil baron.
