Description
Love on the Pod is your go-to podcast for all things cheesy, cozy and heartwarming in the world of made-for-TV movies. Hosted by Sherri Adams and Jessica Guzikowski, we dive deep into the delightful universe of Hallmark and other feel-good films, serving up honest reviews, behind-the-scenes insights and plenty of laughs along the way.
Each week, we unpack some of the most beloved - and sometimes most cringeworthy - movies in the genre. From swooning over the charm of Savoring Paris, where Bethany Joy Lenz’s character Ella finds love (and herself) in a quaint French cheese shop, to breaking down the predictable-but-comforting romance of The Professional Bridesmaid, we don’t just skim the surface. We get into what works, what doesn’t, and why we keep coming back for more - even when we know exactly how it’s going to end.
Sherri brings a warm, enthusiastic energy to every episode, always ready to celebrate the cozy details, heartfelt moments and silver linings that make these movies so comforting. Jessica balances that optimism with thoughtful, honest takes that dig into the emotional core of each story - what these films say about love, relationships and the beautifully messy realities of life. Together, their dynamic feels like chatting with friends on the couch during a movie marathon.
But Love on the Pod isn’t just about reviews. We love sharing behind-the-scenes tidbits, filming fun facts and occasional insider stories that give listeners a deeper appreciation for how these movies come together. We also keep things playful with games and trivia—guessing which Hallmark hunk delivered that iconic cheesy line, predicting how fast the leads will fall in love or debating the tropes we love (and love to hate).
At the heart of Love on the Pod is honesty. We’ll swoon when it’s deserved, side-eye a plot twist that makes zero sense and laugh when things go completely off the rails. If you love Hallmark movies, made-for-TV romances or just want a cozy, feel-good podcast that doesn’t take itself too seriously, pull up a blanket and join us. We promise you’ll leave with a smile.

Send a text This week on Love on the Pod, we’re heading to a little town you may have heard of… Schitt’s Creek. We’re kicking off our very first mini episode with the pilot, “Our Cup Runneth Over,” where the wildly wealthy Rose family loses everything and finds themselves stuck in a motel in the middle of nowhere; armed with designer luggage, zero practical life skills and truly unmatched facial expressions.

Send a text This week on Love on the Pod, we’re heading deep into the jungle (emotionally and geographically) to discuss Love on the Amazon, starring Jaicy Elliot and Rafael de la Fuente. We talk about what happens when purpose, passion and romance collide in one of Hallmark’s most visually lush settings...and whether the movie delivers on both the love story and the larger message.

Send us a text This week on Love on the Pod, we’re packing our emotional carry-ons and heading somewhere sunny as we dive into Lost in Paradise, starring the queen of cozy herself, Lacey Chabert, and certified charming human, Ian Harding. In this episode, we break down everything from the escapist setting to the surprisingly thoughtful themes of identity, ambition and what it really means to slow down.

Send us a text This week on Love on the Pod, we’re catching up on all things made-for-TV holiday chaos — from reality TV reunions to brand-new festive films, plus our ultimate Christmas movie rankings. First up: The Finding Mr. Christmas reunion. We share our honest thoughts on what worked, what definitely didn’t and why it maybe could’ve been an email. We talk about what we wanted more of (hi, Melissa Peterman 👀), the relationship dynamics we wish had been explored and why a reunion should l...
Send us a text This week on Love on the Pod, we’re diving into The Christmas Baby, starring Ali Liebert and Katherine Barrell — a Hallmark holiday mystery that asks the very important question: what if your entire life pivoted because of a baby at Christmas? We unpack the twists, the small-town vibes, the slightly chaotic timelines and the emotional weight this movie carries while still wrapping everything up in a cozy Hallmark bow. From Ali Liebert doing what she does best (grounded, heartfe...
Send us a text On this episode of Love on the Pod, we’re joined by the hosts of Movie Torture to tackle The Unauthorized Full House Story — that somehow thought nostalgia alone would carry it. Spoiler alert: it did not. We break down everything that didn’t work — from questionable casting and wildly uneven performances to a script that felt more like a Wikipedia summary than a compelling story. As lifelong fans of Full House, we wanted to love this… but instead found ourselves asking who this...
Send us a text This week on Love on the Pod, we’re diving into Have We Met This Christmas, the Great American Family holiday romance starring Danica McKellar and Jesse Hutch. Equal parts cozy, convenient amnesia and emotionally loaded Christmas timing, this movie gives us plenty to unpack. Danica McKellar stars as Katie, a driven real estate executive who wakes up at a mountain inn after a car accident with no memory of who she is — or why she once swore she’d never speak to innkeeper Emmett ...
Send us a text The journey to finding Mr. Christmas comes to an end as we break down the season two finale of Finding Mr. Christmas. With only three finalists left — Rustin, Craig and Angel — the pressure is fully on as the men face their final challenge: a three-part acting scene opposite the queen of Hallmark herself, Erin Krakow. Adding an extra layer of charm (and nerves) to the moment, Kristoffer Polaha joins as a special guest, offering guidance, insight and that unmistakable leading-ma...
Send us a text In this episode of Love on the Pod, we dive into A Grand Ole Opry Christmas, starring Nikki DeLoach and Kristoffer Polaha, and unpack the deeply emotional themes that set this movie apart from a standard holiday romance. We talk about how the film centers on the longing to revisit moments with loved ones who are gone, and the quiet ache of wondering why they made the choices they did while they were still here. The story’s time-bending elements allow the characters, and the aud...

We talk through...
Send us a text In this episode of Love on the Pod, we’re diving into Finding Mr. Christmas Season 2, Episode 6, where the competition cranks up both the chaos and the chemistry. The guys face off in a hilariously festive, holiday-themed booby trapped obstacle course that feels equal parts Christmas morning and slapstick survival challenge.

Send us a text In this week’s episode, we’re diving into the festive chaos of Netflix’s new holiday film Merry Little Ex-Mas, starring Alicia Silverstone and Oliver Hudson.

The result is a cozy, comedic, slightly chaotic story about old patterns, new boundaries and w...
Send us a text This week on Love on the Pod, we’re recapping Season 2, Episode 5 of Finding Mr. Christmas, and the competition has officially entered its unhinged holiday era. The Festive Faceoff sends the men barreling across the lawn inside giant inflatable balls, knocking over Christmas trees with the kind of chaotic enthusiasm usually reserved for mall Santas on Black Friday. It’s physical comedy at its finest, and somehow also the perfect metaphor for what happens when romance, rivalry a...

Send us a text This week on Love on the Pod, we’re setting sail through time with Hallmark’s A Newport Christmas, starring Ginna Claire Mason and Wes Brown. Set against the gilded backdrop of 1905 Newport, the story follows Ella—an ambitious, big-hearted socialite who dreams of using her privilege to help others.

Send us a text This week, we’re diving into episode 2 of Finding Mr. Christmas season 2, where contestants faced off in a gift-tossing challenge that required them to shoot presents into Santa’s sleigh, followed by a reindeer-themed photo shoot that was equal parts festive and chaotic.
