We imagine the pitch for “Hot Frosty” was simple: Olaf from “Frozen,” but he fucks. This Netflix holiday rom-com is here to remind us that Christmas may take place during the cold season, but it can still be *hot*.

“Hot Frosty” follows widow-slash-diner owner Kathy (Lacey Chabert) as she accidentally brings a notably chiseled snowman (Dustin Milligan) to life with a magical red scarf. Is she his mother? His lover? The lines are blurry and the plot holes are plentiful, but “Hot Frosty” commits to the bit. It also boasts ACTUAL JOKES, a pretty stacked supporting cast (Craig Robinson! Joe Lo Truglia! Lauren Holly!), and an undercurrent of anti-carceral sentiment running throughout. In these dark times, honestly we’ll take it.

We had a lot of fun talking about this horny movie, and we hope you enjoy listening! We could all use a little bit of silliness in this moment. Xo
