Description

We debate how to decide if a movie counts as a “holiday” movie. We also discuss how the holiday season seems to be morphing into one long celebration, with Halloween flowing directly into Christmas. Plus, we share what's making us happier: the anticipation of hosting a holiday gathering and the special joy of having a child home from college for a long visit.

Shocked that Gretchen couldn't place A Christmas Story as the movie she was referencing- what a seasonal classic! 🛷
