    Episode #13 - Holiday in Handcuffs

    Merry Christmas dear listeners! Anthony and Jillian wish you the merriest and brightest of holidays as they gift you a retelling of the mack daddy of all bad holiday romcoms, 2007's festive flop, "Holiday in Handcuffs." One of the greatest works of classic film, ABC Family's masterpiece, starring Melissa Joan Hart and Mario Lopez, is nothing short of a farcical, homophobic romp that will make you believe in the magic of Stockholm Syndrome.

    Episode #12 - Love Actually

    Merry Christmas Eve 2024! You know you want to spend it with Anthony and Jillian as they tear apart beloved holiday ensemble favorite, 2003's festive not-so-much-of-a-flop, "Love Actually." While, yes, it's a product of its time, our hosts can't help but roast the transphobic, fatphobic, and sexist "festering turd" of a script produced by people who should have known better in 2003.

    It's almost Christmas 2024, so join Anthony and Jillian as they embark on one woman's inter-dimensional journey to get rich and abandon the husband she hates in 2007's festive flop, "Holiday Switch."

    Episode #10 - A Christmas Letter

    This week, Anthony and Jillian tackle David Lipper's author self-insert festive flop in 2021's "A Christmas Letter." Full of runaway orphans, ADT product placement, and romantic chemistry scores in the negatives, will writer/actor David Lipper score the hot female lead he wrote for himself to woo?? Oh, and this one stars Colin Mochrie as Santa Clause!

    Episode #9 - Eve's Christmas

    This week, Anthony and Jillian jump back in time to retell and review a Christmas gone-wrong in 2004's festive flop, "Eve's Christmas." In this tale of reused sets, last minute wedding planning, and Zac Efron look-alikes, join our hosts for a magical recounting of this poorly edited, mid-00s time travel romp.

    Episode #8 - Girlfriends of Christmas Past

    This week, Anthony and Jillian tackle the revenge scheming of three scorned women to recount and review 2016's festive flop, "Girlfriends of Christmas Past." Full of closeted lesbians, attempts at slapstick comedy, and omniscient exes, join our hosts for this laughably poor attempt at the "band of unlikely exes get revenge" trope.

    Episode #7 - Desperately Seeking Santa

    In this week's episode, Anthony and Jillian venture to the South Boston Mall to recount and review 2011's festive flop, "Desperately Seeking Santa."

    Episode #6 - Naughty and Nice (2014)

    This week, Anthony and Jillian venture into the world of a shock jock vs. a Frasier rip-off in 2014's festive flop "Naughty and Nice." Can they stomach a runtime of 88 minutes packed with an office filled with Styrofoam peanuts, "homemade" Christmas cookies, and Marcia Brady?
