We watched Hallmark’s “Five Golen Rings”…and wished we hadn’t. Our review is fun…the movie was not.
Soooo, if you’re still reading this…here we go:
In Seth’s approximately 24th Hallmark viewing (who’s counting?), he, Cousin Chad and Joe, The Christmas Aficionado dive into Hallmark’s new holiday mystery, Five Golden Rings. When artist Audrey returns to her hometown, she finds herself swept up in an unexpected treasure hunt.
But with only nine days to solve it, can she and childhood friend Finn locate each ring’s rightful owner?
Join us as we review the cozy thrills, romantic twists, and, of course, holiday spirit…but, mainly, we question our life’s choices that lead us to watching this movie.

What’s up, dudes? Art Kilmer from A Cozy Christmas is with me to talk about the 1985 Hasbro sponsored Christmas special “The GLO Friends Save Christmas!” It’s insane, with Elder Wands, “Lost” smoke monsters, Care Bear stare-style glow, and Venus fly trap-esque ice flowers! What a trip!
The GLO Friends are celebrating Christmas Eve by ice skating, decorating the village, and making snowmen. Granny Bug is even baking pies. Meanwhile, Blanche, the Wicked Witch of the North Pole, is jealous of Santa. She follows him and sabotages his yearly flight. In fact, she imprisons him and his reindeer in an icy spike-lined cage on a raging river, so they cannot deliver their presents on Christmas Eve. Her timid sidekick, Moose (not a lot of though put into that name) tries to stop her, but she zaps him far away with her magic.
The GLO Friends find out what she’s done, and they set out to try and save Santa. They rescue Moose from a tree along the way and let him guide them to Santa’s location. Blanche tries to drown them in an icy deluge. Her scheme fails as they reach Santa despite her powers and rescue him with their soft, warm glow. Who knew that was more powerful against ice than a fire?
GLO Worm? Yep. Santa? Check. Unimaginatively named moose? Only if he’s played by Lorenzo Music! So grab your book of strange voices, head towards Santa, and listen to this episode on “The GLO Friends Save Christmas!”

The Christmas Cousins are back with their annual tradition: infiltrating Cousin Seth’s (very generous) neighbor, Oprah’s, closet of treasures!
Like last year, they’ll uncover the best of her “Favorite Things” and debate what Seth, with his bottomless budget, should splurge on this holiday season. Will this be a spending spree for Seth, or will Oprah’s security team catch them and kick them out before he decides? Tune in to see what magic Oprah’s closet holds for them this year!
.
Today I sit down with author Kevin Moore who has published two volumes of Christmas stories. First we talk about the joy that Christmas can bring, even during difficult times (which has been the unofficial theme of my podcast this year!). Then we dig into his book and talk about some of the short stories in it. Then we dive deep into the joy of Christmas and talk about our favorite Christmas things, the surprising differences between an LA and New York City Christmas (hint – it involves graveyards), and ways to spread Christmas kindness to our neighbors!
Stay tuned – on Friday another episode will be out, and Kevin will be back to read one of his stories!
