Happy Monday, Christmas Fanatics! Can you believe that next week is Christmas? Where did the time go?

This week, Julia, Thom, and Anthony cover Hulu’s brand-new, 2020, Holiday original movie, Happiest Season! Join them as they take a deep dive into this beautiful, hilarious, heartwarming, and heart-wrenching love story focusing on a lesbian couple going home to spend the holidays with one of their conservative families. Listen as they celebrate the long overdo representation this movie provides for the LGBTQ+ community – something that should absolutely be normalized and happen far more often, both in and out of holiday movies – in addition to discussing the amazing cast that makes up this wonderfully dysfunctional family, talk about their favorite scenes and quotes, and defend Kristen Stewart as an actress while talking about a film they all really enjoyed which more than earns the place it ends up falling on their Christmas canon list.

This a jam-packed episode that covers a lot of ground outside of our movie of the week as well, including:

  • Julia and her family landing themselves into quarantine just before Christmas
  • Warner Bros.’ announcement that they will be releasing their entire slate of 2021 films simultaneously on HBO Max and in theaters – and what this means for the future of the film industry
  • All of the recent casting confirmations and rumors about Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 (Home Dimension?) and what it says about the possible plot and the MCU overall.
  • Whether Julia and Anthony were Team Edward or Team Jacob fans during the heyday of the Twilight Saga
  • Keanu Reeves and Schitt’s Creek 
  • GaryBlauman’s/Matt Eurich’s Question of the Week: “What is a non-Christmas song that you now associate with Christmas?”
  • Anthony’s Question of the Week posed to discuss Next Week: “What classic Christmas movies do you think are most poised to have a remake happen in our lifetimes?”
  • And much, much, much more.

So settle in beside your Christmas tree with your favorite holiday beverage, sit back, and enjoy this fun episode which is one of Anthony’s personal favorites of the show so far! Also, if you want to hear the elves of Tis the Podcast elsewhere this week, check out the following places:
