A couple of weeks ago, we talked about the three movies that our part of our Christmas tradition (Love Actually, Die Hard, Christmas Vacation). For Episode 148, we watched three movies that were homages (or parodies) of traditional Christmas movies: Elf, Gremlins, and Scrooged. We talked about what worked and didn\'t work, and why they didn\'t appeal to us as "traditional" movies as they may for other people. We agree that comedy is the hardest art form for writers.

Just for fun, we threw in Lethal Weapon and wondered why it isn\'t included in the "Christmas Movie" debate like Die Hard.

We talked about our favorite Christmas memories from when we were children, and we reminisced about our first Christmas as a married couple back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth and before the internet.

Finally, we previewed Episode 150 that will be our debut in our brand new studio in the Dungeon of Doom.

Good stuff as usual for the independent writer. Have a listen and let us know what you think. TIA LYL!
