Or...."Fa-La-La-La-La-La-La-La-Hat" -- PART TWO!"Man, oh, man. If you know this movie, you know it. If you don't, you are in for QUITE a film. For one thing, absolutely watch it. They truly do not make them like this anymore. They just don't. This quality is unmatched. It's so bad in the best way. It has it all. It has Lizzie McGuire's sister in 2013 dressed like she's in 2004 playing a 26 year old former teen mom who acts like a middle aged woman, it has a wheelchair-bound child whose father died in a car wreck who wants nothing more than to drive fast in cars who miraculously walks by the end because his paralysis was psychosomatic, it's got patient zero, it's got zero chemistry, and most of all, it has a year round hat shop that gets saved by the brilliant business decision of opening MORE hat shops. Also this is a halloween movie and a Christmas movie but thanksgiving is completely omitted.It is insane.And we were so lucky to have on the brilliant Jen Lancaster!!! You've probably read her work, but if you haven't, you've read someone inspired by her. She's fabulous and she was REAL fired up. Get your wine ready for this one.Find Jen at Jennsylvania.com or on Instagram and pick up her new book, House Moms! You can also find her personal Hallmark bingo cards here.Also she mentioned the podcast Hello From the Magic Tavern, and Paige mentioned the episode of MST3K about the movie just called Santa Claus. It's perfect. Also love Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. MST3K is on Tubi for anyone who wants to give them a watch! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

OMG YOU GUYS IT'S NATE FROM BIG LITTLE LIES! Also it's James Tupper! He was our fifteenth choice, but since he was available we let him come on because we're REALLY nice. Just kiddddinggg, we love James and we're so glad he could come on! He's been in Hallmark movies, he's been on TV, he's been in other movies, he's been in everything!! And mostly, he's lived under a rock, because he had never seen The Holiday. We know. It's insane. But we got him to watch, and it was really fun getting his professional take on the movie, but especially seeing someone see this movie for the first time!!!! This single guy has a cow in the backyard and The Holiday is his new favorite movie. You're welcome, Tups. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

"Christmas Blow Up" -- Just like how Paige has talked a lot about the film buffy movie Blow Up but has never seen it, we wish we had talked about this but never seen it! We are SO glad we made the choice to do extra (delightful) work and watch extra movies at the end of the season here because if this was the last episode of the year/season we would have SCREAMED. We could NEVER have left you on this note! This movie had like zero plot, and in fact, in retrospect we realized after editing the episode that the movie description did describe one of the characters as being new in town when in fact, she wasn't. So, it wasn't even. So this movie didn't even know what it was. We had higher hopes. You can skip it, but don't skip the episode! And get REAL excited for the Christmas weekend episodes, because we have FAB guests and movies!!!! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or..."Glitter Succession"...well, we've learned the lesson ONCE AGAIN--don't watch these movies without snacks and/or wine in the cold light of day. Watch at night cozy with carbs and tannins! This one is good. Cute, good actors, good lil banter. Watch it. It's, you know, a Hallmark movie, but it's a little more than that. Beth liked it more than Paige did. But possibly only because Paige did it wrong. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or...Root Ball's Drag Race...a secret shopper insists that a man needs a tweed coat until he lets her kiss him. This one was not great, gang. Nottttt great. But lots of red coats! Not like American Revolution level, but close. This one posed so many questions. Why would a man like him need a personal shopper? Why wouldn't he buy his daughter a christmas tree?? Why wouldn't he get his daughter a present at all, much less an age appropriate one? Why do they keep putting us through christmas karaoke?You don't have to watch this one. But you DO have to listen to the episode. Also, this man is almost too handsome. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Or...A Boring Movie With an Interesting Scandal! Welcome to our first Fireside Chat! The girls sit down to talk about a scandal in the Hallmark world. Well, in the real world, and one that Hallmark apparently isn't going to acknowledge. For those of you who are only here for the first time, on this podcast, we cover insipid delights like Hallmark movies, rom-coms, Christmas Specials, reality TV, and anything ridiculous and fun we feel like covering. Our first order of business was covering the 2023 Countdown to Christmas, and that included a movie called "HOLIDAY ROAD." In our episode we well-established that the movie itself was pretty meh, but we were totally bewildered by the fact that it said "inspired by true events," but then didn't say what the original source material was. For once, we even researched. Then, lo and behold, it turns out that Alanah Story had her story totally fecking ripped off and Hallmark didn't compensate her at all! Which is ridiculous. We're LIVID.The article Beth finally found on the true story.Alanah's Instagram. Alanah's TikTok Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or "500 Days of Hanukkah" -- IT'S A GOOD ONE. IT'S. A. DAMN. GOOD. ONE. Paige won't say it with Jack in the room, but she thinks it's might be just as good if not better than Santa Summit. Mmmmmm maybe not better. But maybe? Ugh hard to say. It's on par, no question. This movie is hilarious. Watch before you listen to the episode. It's a real movie. Nuff said. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Inception. Memento. Das Boot. Tenet. Christmas on Cherry Lane.Googles: Christmas on Cherry Lane ExplainedLook you guys, it turns out we were wrong about who an ENTIRE character was supposed to be in this movie. So we are amending what we said there with a mini episode! But it’s not like we magically 🪄loved it more! Anyway come on down for some extra chat if you want! We also discuss White Christmas for a few minutes! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

"Pepper Grindr" -- We don't know whether to recommend staying stone cold sober for this one or going balls to the wall. It's like Tenet levels of confusing, or maybe our brains are just completely fried, you tell us--because surely we're the only ones out here actually watching THE ENTIRE countdown to christmas, right?!?!?To be honest, we are wrong about the entire, ENTIRE Erin Cahill/Catherine Bell thing and we'll take some responsibility for that but not ALL OF IT.We think this one had some great writing, some REALLY good characters, and some stuff that just...I mean...what?Also this is the last episode before Round and Round which is SUCH A GOOD MOVIE so GET EXCITED! (not sarcasm! for real!) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or "Not a Lot of Kissing for a Movie About Mistletoe"... this one has another nameless best friend on it! This time it's Taryn, someone Paige has a matching tattoo with (and it's the name of another, different, better movie, but that's not why they have them), Beth claims to have 'baby brain' after 23 years, and everyone says they didn't hate this movie and then spends an entire hour sounding a lot like they didn't like it one bit!We think this one is worth watching, but take that with an ENORMOUS three person shrug. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or..."It's Not Always Easy to Be a Smithsonian"-- Well, this gang is a bunch of total suckers for old Hollywood. We do live in L.A. and Palm Springs after all. And we also fall for a movie with a good budget. This one had that--or at least was HELLA sponsored by THE BILTMORE ESTATE! DID WE MENTION THE BILMORE ESTATE?! Which Beth hasn't been to, Richie has been to, Paige has been outside of, but which her grandmother deemed too expensive so instead they went to the Grove Park Inn. So it was nice to spend time there. We also all love a good time travel! So if you haven't watched this one, we recommend it!This one still didn't have enough seals for Richie. If you don't get that reference you may have missed our episode on "Mystic Christmas...."Speaking of unsolicited recommendations, we also made some recommendations in this episode. Mostly for time travel romance novels, including A Knight in Shining Armor by Jude Deveraux, Rhapsody in Time by Judith O'Brien, Green Darkness by Anne Seton, and if you've been meaning to get around to read the 800 page behemoth that is Outlander here's your reminder. These are also wonderful escapist holiday present ideas! Richie also recommended Terminator. Less romantic but you know. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

 or...“What? Don’t repeat it, I heard you.”-- WE SWEAR, we actually WANT to like these movies. We know it sounds hard to believe. But we're really trying here.We talk messenger bags (with disdain), Shirley Temples, and yearn for deep fried food.We also mention one of Beth's books, Every Time You Go Away, which has the setting we wish this one had. On account of the red flags, we also mention Blythe Roberson's book, How to Date Men When You Hate Men.Please keep sharing, rating, downloading! It makes such a difference! Truly!!!! Share us on instagram! Tell your nameless best friends about us! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or..."Nightmare in Christmas Alley."--- Sigh. If it weren't for the guest, we'd truly say not to listen to this one. Honestly, we'd tell you to just pretend this never happened. We had to watch it, we had to talk about it, we had to record it, we had to do all of that, because of a commITMENT we made it to YOU. Because of an arbitrary commitment we made to all three of our listeners that we would watch all six hundred --sorry, THIRTY ONE-- movies for the Hallmark Countdown to Christmas. This movie is one of those movies. And we watched it.And Keeley had a song in it! It was truly the best part of the movie! The best song of the season, even, and that includes the N*SYNC song in Holiday Hotline.You can follow her on Instagram here!You can see her VERY cool music video for Dancing on My Grave that Richie directed and that Paige did the set design for here! You can find her new EP on Spotify here and on Apple Music here! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or...""A Stupid Fight Amongst Liars"-- on this one, we have a REAL best friend in the house! The girls have Emily over! Paige's very own Nameless Best Friend. They've been friends so long they used to play pretend together, learned to be boy crazy together, and yet still Paige didn't know her well enough to know that the reason they watched Lord of the Rings so many times was really because of Gimli all along.You just never know. You just. Never. Know.Anyway, in this one, Paige and Beth LOVE the movie and their guest HATED it which is another first for NBFFs! Emily is WRONG about this one, it stars THOMAS of Merry Scottish Christmas fame (aka, Will Kemp) and it's delightful if...you know. Flawed. Thanks for sharing and downloading and rating!!!! Keep doing it!!! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or...."Grandma Got Run Over By a Troll Subplot."-- It's hard to believe "Letters to Santa" was even on the same channel as this. You know what I'm saying? We have a special guest on this one! The girls have Sarah over to sip cocktails and talk about this cozy lil movie. The Ted Lasso comparisons just WILL. NOT. STOP. So again, just a reminder, that if you're a fan of Ted Lasso, be aware or beware that next week on Patreon we'll be releasing a special episode covering Hannah Waddingdam's Christmas Special on Apple Plus! Not only that, but our special guest will be Richie! Beth, Paige, and Richie will be recording the episode after heading to a night of comedy at the Largo in LA where Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent himself) will be in attendance, so hopefully we'll have some gravelly voiced gossip from that too!Paige thinks the grandma is haunted, Beth and Sarah think she's lovely, everyone agrees there's not enough snow, and we HIGHLY recommend you watch this one at night with a glass of wine or a cup of tea, and some sort of highly indulgent snack.Thank you so much for sharing, downloading, and telling all your nameless best friends about us IRL and on the internets, it makes such a difference! We love you! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or..."Bend it Like Bethlehem" or also "The Newbourne King," man, Paige was really on FIRE coming up with alternate titles for this one. Here's one Beth hated and Paige loved! A first for Nameless Best Friends, but not a first in life. In this one, the NBFFs discuss jiffypop hats (and they don't care), more inevitable Ted Lasso comparisons come up, and some dreamy imaginings of the eighties in London with trench coats and walkmen playing a-ha are wafted around. If you're a fan of Ted Lasso, be aware or beware that next week on Patreon we'll be releasing a special episode covering Hannah Waddingdam's Christmas Special on Apple Plus! Not only that, but our special guest will be Richie! Beth, Paige, and Richie will be recording the episode after heading to a night of comedy at the Largo in LA where Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent himself) will be in attendance, so hopefully we'll have some gravelly voiced gossip from that too!Thank you so much for sharing, downloading, and telling all your nameless best friends about us IRL and on the internets, it makes such a difference! We love you! We would give you five stars if we could! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or..."A Bad Case of the Jolly Johnsons" -- It's here! The sequel to Haul Out the Holly! We covered the original episode in a Patreon episode, so if you wanna catch up, cough up. But if not, it's okay, it's just a fun lil romp and you'll probably be able to keep up without our original quips.In this one, Evergreen Lane is alight again, but some reality stars on the block again to drive Lacey Chabert MAD. It's HILARIOUS. We recommend you watch this one! For real!Please keep rating us, sharing us, downloading us, telling your nameless best friends about us, and posting about us on Instagram and everywhere else! It makes SUCH a difference. And to our Patrons--oh my gosh. What superstars you are! <3Follow Beth! Follow Paige! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or.... "Nobody Blow"In this one, a bunch of people can't get to Denver but insist on going, and going together. Ugh. In this we discuss Paige's brief but endless lifetime on Concourse C in the Atlanta airport, the wax figuring at MCO, and discuss Tragedy Anne's insurance fraud scam. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or "18 USC Section 1702" -- Not to be all Cliff Claven about it, but um it's illegal to open someone else's mail...So yeah, two brats gets a magical pen and a meddling grandmother uses lying to parent-trap two toxic people back together (for a while, they def break up after the movie ends). In this one Paige goes full Fa La La Kent, we wonder where the puppy went, and of course, discuss mail law. Follow Beth on Instagram! Follow Jack on Instagram and listen to his music on Spotify and Apple Music!Follow Paige on Instagram!Things are heating up on Patreon, we're uploading recipes and gearing up to do special episodes soon, so get your coffers ready! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or: "Cloudy with a Chance of Nepotism" -- This one is about a woman who wants to be an on-air reporter but instead, meets Santa's son.In this one we are joined by chief meteorologist from NBC2, Allyson Rae! Also, she and Paige have been Nameless Best Friends for over a decade. She gives us her take on the Pig Diver journal, we agree that we'd like to party with the theater troupe in spite of the accents and dental work, and we rename the lead actor Luke McGarland. Follow Allyson on Instagram! Follow Beth on Instagram! Follow Jack on Instagram and listen to his music on Spotify and Apple Music!

or: "You'll Believe a Man Can Fry"Well, well, well! This was a movie with many names, sponsored, we think, by the Nickname Organization (to donate, please send any and all donations to Venmo at @paigeharbison)This is a movie about a "British" "chef" who works at a holiday hotline for people who cook their turkeys with the plastic on and then call other adults to ask if it's okay to do that. She falls in love with someone, and they have in common the fact that they are both lying about their names. But he hates that about her. In this one, we discuss the correct chicken way to pronounce "MACABRE," we learn about Gazoo, and Jack plays the guitar for .8 seconds at the very end with EXTREME reluctance. "You'll Believe a Man Can Fry" was Jack's alt title which he got in the first record of the episode (yes we had to record this one TWICE) and forgot about in this one, so please appreciate his Superman reference.Speaking of Jack, his new album is out! Check it out on Spotify and Apple Music! Every listen helps! Here's the book of Beth's that we reference, Secrets of A Shoe Addict. It's a sequel, but you can read out of order if you want. Otherwise, here is the first one! And hey let's go totally out of order, here's the third one, a novella, which became a Hallmark movie! And thank you so much for listening and sharing and downloading and rating us. It makes more of a difference than we ever knew when we were just listeners of podcasts. Tell all your nameless friends!

or: Bagpipe Anastasia THOMAS THOMAS THOMAS THOMAS THOMA--sorry. Ahem. Two estranged siblings can't decide if they wan't a free castle. Yeah, that's really what happens in this movie! We discuss Thomas, Fiveheads, medieval intrigue, and Paige gets a new hat made out of the outdoors. Keep on rating us and downloading us and sharing us, it really makes a difference! Jack is starting to apply to restaurants and we're getting closer and closer to losing him, so please share as much as you can and join our patreon if it's in your budget! <3 Also listen to his new album which is out now on spotify and apple! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or, "Ok, Whippersnapper"You know how when your sixteen year old doesn't get to go on a snowboarding trip and you don't have a passport you go ahead and book an Airbnb for a lighthouse where you have to work the entire time you're there? Well, so do the players of this particular melodrama.This one is a long one, so buckle up! If you're traveling home from Thanksgiving, this one is perfect because it'll get you halfway home. We considered breaking it into two episodes, but figured you can simply pause it and not deal with extra ads.In this one, we discuss the ill use of lamaze bellies, wolves, and the reminder that even the most boring couple you know has an origin story. FYI, Paige's stomach DID hurt and she really didn't think it would.Jack's new album is finally out!! Download it and listen to it on Spotify here or on Apple Music here!This reminded us of one of Beth's books, Every Time You Go Away, which you can find here!And as usual, Paige is out there doing funny things on Insta. No one can make her stop. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or "I Broke My Ornament 2: Adventures Of The Alliterative American"In this one, a woman trusts a comedian at a shipping facility to ship her most prized worldly possessions across the world for a bargain price and then she goes to a beautiful place to wait for them to arrive broken. AKA, a foreign language film about an unwell woman.In this one we discuss asking a flight attendant to por favor sit right next to los baños, we try to prove Beth wrong but it does't really work, and we discuss Chekov's Dog.Thank you so much for rating and sharing and reviewing!

or: "Captain Hot Cocoa & the Wetter Weather"An awful rich family is stranded by a pilot, whom they blame for the bad weather, on an island around Christmastime. Love ensues.Well, this is a movie with Belsnickel in it. A lobster death tree, a lot of food in actor's mouths (but not ours, don't fret), and we talk about the first note of the happy birthday song. Speaking of songs, listen to jack sing some! Paige is on some too. His new album comes out soon, but you've never heard his old music, so that's new to you!

See acast.com/privacy for more information.

or: "The Harbisons Get Religion"Welp. This movie is perfect. I'd apologize, but this might have been our favorite episode to record to date. Was it because we'd consumed a bottle and a half of wine before deciding to record the podcast in the middle of the night after watching the movie because we just COULDN'T WAIT to talk about it?? Yeah, partially. But also, rarely does Hallmark give us a gift that is this GOOD! Especially when the trailer gave us the LOWEST expectations. Ugh, look at me. Look at me! I can't even stop in the caption. I must control myself. As always, thank you so much for listening and sharing. We are so grateful to our listeners!!

Or: "The Notebook 2: The Rise of the Video Cartoons"Here's the trope here: two people inherit something and fall in love about it. This one has it all!
