Hallmark Movie Classic - "A Christmas Melody"
We were treated to a visit from actor Ellyn Jameson and producer Kayla Foster today to get their takes on - get this - the first Hallmark movie either of them had ever seen! Don't tell Kayla's mom, though! Anyway, Director and actor Mariah Carey is at her blurry best - if by "best" you mean "worst" - in this Lacey Chabert gem from 2015. Enjoy!

33. Disney Movie - "The Ultimate Christmas Present" - From the Patreon Vault!
50:08||Season 3, Ep. 33It's Paige's fault. Entirely. Teen Beach Movie and now this.Look, if you're looking for a great or beautiful film, this is far from it. But if you want a time portal directly to sitting in front of your heavy, bulky monster of a TV in the year 2000, it's a miracle! Is there magic in it? Yes. Is it magical? No. Worth watching? We did it for you!32. Hallmark Movie - "Hannukah on the Rocks"
01:30:28||Season 3, Ep. 32Hilarious author Lindsay Hameroff (Till there was You) joins us for what some of us found to be a pleasant holiday diversion. It's no "Round and Round," sure, but it's also not "Letters to Santa." Most importantly, it brings Marc Summers back to our screens, where he shows genuine warmth and charm at a time when we need it most.If you hate commercials but love a sassy movie breakdown with a lot of pithy life observations strewn in, or if you'd like to give a membership to someone else look for us on Patreon for an ad-free experience and bonuses! https://www.patreon.com/posts/118376002/editYou can also find us on Apple Podcasts here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/nameless-best-friends/id1714011277 and on Spotify here: https://open.spotify.com/show/5TL5kAlHI2uQ3NGet2FO0g?si=e16dadfa84684df5Find books by Beth Harbison everywhere books are sold, and definitely look for Paige’s book The Other Side of Now in Spring 2025 and find her hilarious one minute Hallmark, etc. videos on TikTok and Instagram, where she’s known as Pharbeaux.31. Netflix Movie - "The Christmas Prince" - From the Patreon Vault!
01:08:41||Season 3, Ep. 31If you love The Sound of Music so much that you'll settle for anything even remotely similar, this is the movie for you! Not saying that's a bad thing, we actually found it pretty enjoyable. Were there a few ridiculous coincidences? Of course. A cheap device to create pity and a "serious" tone? Indeed. Was there a happy ending? Weirdly enough...we're not going to say. Even though you could guess.30. Netflix Movie - The Princess Switch (from the Patreon Vault)
57:11||Season 3, Ep. 30Vanessa Hudgens and Vanessa Hudgens star in The Princess Switch! Little to no effort is made to make this in any way plausible but it's still a pleasant movie. The rental house "Kevin" and "Stacy" have is fantastic, but what isn't beautiful in Belgravia, amirite? Besides the castle.By the way, only one of us thought it was a good idea to leave the rambling intro in. It wasn't Beth.29. Hallmark Movie - "Sugarplummed"
54:37||Season 3, Ep. 29Mixed feelings on this one. Is "Sugarplum" the actresses single name? Is she human? Why doesn't she understand anything about life? If she's just a character, does she have a human double out here somewhere? Why aren't these questions ever answered???If you hate commercials but love a sassy movie breakdown with a lot of pithy life observations strewn in, look for us on Patreon for an ad-free experience and bonuses!You can also find us on Apple Podcasts here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/nameless-best-friends/id1714011277 and on Spotify here: https://open.spotify.com/show/5TL5kAlHI2uQ3NGet2FO0g?si=e16dadfa84684df5Find books by Beth Harbison everywhere books are sold, and definitely look for Paige’s book The Other Side of Now in Spring 2025 and find her hilarious one minute Hallmark, etc. videos on TikTok and Instagram, where she’s known as Pharbeaux.28. Hallmark Movie - "Private Princess Christmas"
01:09:58||Season 3, Ep. 28Wasn't Nancy Meyers working on a new, updasted Private Benjamin? And could they re-release the original with Goldie Hawn in the meantime? That was a great movie.This is not that movie.This is the story of a man with Issues that any sensible woman would stay away from. Not one surprise here. But we had fun discussing it!
