So, grab your beloved stuffy, settle in, and enjoy! As always, thanks for your love and support, y'all! ❤️🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🔔🚂 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️

Happy Monday, Christmas Fanatics! And Happy April 1st! Can you believe we're a quarter of the way through the year already? We sure can't! Yet, here we are - one major holiday closer to the most wonderful time of the year!

This week, the elves kick off "Animation/Children's Movie Month" by covering the 2023, Disney Plus original movie, "Diary of a Wimpy Kid Christmas: Cabin Fever"! The elves' reactions fall all over the place with this specific film, and we'd bet you'll be surprised about which elf feels what  - and no, the feelings expressed are not part of an April Fool's Day prank! Regardless of how your hosts feel, however, they have a blast discussing this new holiday movie amongst plenty of other things!

So, settle back, relax, and enjoy this extremely festive episode! As always, thanks for your love and support, y'all! ❤️🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🔔🚂 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️

Happy Sunday, Christmas Fanatics! And Happy Easter! We hope the Easter Bunny was good to all of you and that you have a blessed day full of food, family, and friends!

To celebrate the occasion, please enjoy this special bonus episode in which Julia and Anthony (sans Thom, who had prior commitments the evening this was recorded!) travel back to the trippy world of Rankin/Bass for the first time in almost *two years* to discuss their 1971 holiday special, "Here Comes Petter Cottontail"! Even by Rankin/Bass standards, this one is bizarre - but that makes the conversation between your two hosts all the more hilarious as they try to make sense of it.

So, after enjoying your Easter hams and all of the chocolate bunnies and eggs you can stomach, settle in and enjoy this holiday treat! And get excited - because we're another major milestone closer to Christmas! As always, thanks for your love and support, y'all! And again: Happy Easter! ❤️🐇🐥🥚🍫🧺🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🔔🚂 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️

Happy Monday, Christmas Fanatics!

This week, to end TV month on a high note, Julia, Thom, and Anthony gather to discuss the one Christmas episode (so far) of the 2023 Paramount Plus revival, "Frasier"! For those following along at home, that's Season 1 - Episode 10: "Reindeer Games"! 

How does the revival compare to the original show? And what do the elves think of this specific holiday episode? Well, let's just say, there's a lot of gushing and laughing in this episode, so that should give you a hint!

Also discussed: a whole bunch of movies Anthony's recently seen and plans on seeing, and a really interesting discussion on the complications of separating art from problematic artists, amongst many other things! 

This is one stacked, fun, and festive episode you want to make sure not to miss! We guarantee it's the perfect way to kick off your week! So settle back, enjoy, and - as always - thanks for your love and support, y'all! ❤️🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🔔🚂 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️

Happy Monday, Christmas Fanatics! We hope you all had a wonderful St. Patrick's Day!

This week, the elves continue their foray into television month by covering the Texas-set, early 2000's sitcom, "Reba"! For those who want to follow along, the episode they are discussing is Season 2, Episode 10, "Cookies For Santa"!

Also discussed this week? This year's Oscar's ceremony, Ellie's first concert, recent movie news - both Christmas and otherwise - and much, much more! This is one festive episode you want to be sure not to miss!

So, settle in and enjoy! And, as always, thanks for your love and support, y'all! ❤️🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🔔🚂 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️

As a special treat for y'all, enjoy this once Patreon-exclusive episode in which Anthony and Thom are  joined by Ron Hogan - a.k.a. President Hotdog - of "Film Strip Podcast" to discuss the 1993 horror-comedy, "Leprechaun"!

Listen to them alternate between laughing at and express bemusement at this so-awful-its-actually-somewhat-enjoyable holiday film that continues to spawn ever-more ridiculous sequels to this day! Also discussed: leprechaun lore, why more long-running horror franchises don't pull a "Halloween" 2018, and much, much more!

What did our hosts think of this one? Is it too raunchy for Julia and Thom, who continue to bathe in their virginity seven-years into the show?
