Deck The Hallmark

Love the addition of the Diss List pod. After listening to Brian’s top chain food list I’m deeply concerned he’ll become diabetic from all that dessert. Eat a pizza once in awhile. Maybe throw some veggies on there. Please, get your annual bloodwork done.

If you’ve found this show, then I suggest you give a few different themes a shot (classic Christmas, spin offs with the best featuring hosts, seasonal (is Flag a season?), mystery, and *definitely* a preview episode). After that, if: (A) You don’t like it, then you’ve lost nothing and have certainly not been harmed (they’re so kind and positive - sincerely); or (B) You like it, then you’ll soon love it, and you’ll have more laughter in your life. It’s the rare but not impossible win-win-win.

I found this show because of the WCTH episodes following the newest season. Then I started listening to episodes about some of my favorite Hallmark mysteries and such. I’ve pretty much been listening nonstop for the last few days. I don’t always agree with all of their points, but I legitimately laugh out loud at least once per episode. And I find myself CRACKING up at the points I agree with. For example, the question of how Ryan Paevey’s character might get a Social Security number in A Timeless Christmas. I literally pose these kinds of questions to my mom (fellow cheesy movie lover), and she hates it! lol My daughter (8) also cracked up with me when Dan called Sally from Aurora Teagarden a “dummy dumb dumb-dumb” in the newest Aurora movie…because as super fans of the series, WE WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREED! During the episode about Home Alone 3, I appreciate that they acknowledged that this film is the only premise that actually makes sense of the series (kid sick at home because mom has to go to work so she won’t get fired). I cannot stand the first two Home Alone movies because the parents are absolutely reprehensible. I just can’t get over it, so I appreciate that they recognized this about the 3rd, even if they hated the film haha. Anyways, the synopsis music would’ve for sure run out if you were to read this aloud…all-in-all, five stars — I’m a new fan! I’d love to see some of the newer GAC movies covered.

Bran, Scott and Dan , the Christmas Songs Diss List you did was so much fun to listen to , enjoyed the banter between you guys. It was also nice to hear snippets of some great Christmas songs and I liked hearing each of your views on the songs selected by Scott and why Bran and Scott replaced some songs on Scott’s list. I also started following Tinsel Tunes and Pod The Parade podcasts that were mentioned . Joe W.
