Happy Monday, Christmas fanatics! More importantly, Happy "The Batman" week for all those that celebrate! And, *most* importantly, Happy Final Day of February! Can you believe that, as of tomorrow, we're already in March? The year is flying! Were that much closer to the Ber Months!
This week, Julia, Thom, and Anthony are joined by two very special guests - Gerry Davila of "Totally Rad Christmas" and Chuck Mireles of "Just Another Friday Night" - to discuss the *very* festive and *very* Christmassy 2021 holiday film, "Spider-Man: No Way Home"! As Thom expresses incredulity that this movie somehow even made it onto the schedule in the first place, Julia, Anthony, Gerry, and Chuck gush over Marvel's latest - and arguably, *greatest* - installment in their long-running franchise. As always with films like this, however, the questions hanging over the episode are: is there enough Christmas within the movie to qualify it as a holiday film? And if not, how will it impact its final rating? To get the answers to those questions, you'll just have to tune in to find out!
Side-Note: Julia is absent for the first 40 minutes of this nearly two hour episode. This is because she had nothing at all to contribute to the conversation for the first half of this. Once her commentary began to add to the discussion, we decided to put her back in. *Checks notes* Wait a minute...it wasn't supposed to be Julia's audio we cut! It was supposed to be Thom's! We're so sorry, everybody!
We kid, of course! It was merely due to issues with our recording software that we didn't realize until after the fact that Julia's audio wasn't being captured. But, she's still in over half of the episode! We just wanted to give you all a heads up as to why you don't hear her for the first 40 minutes or so!
Anyway, make sure to let us know what you think of this episode, and this movie, on any of our social media pages which you can easily access from our new Linktr.ee at the following link: https://linktr.ee/TisThePodcast.com.
So settle in and enjoy this fun episode that’s full of geeky discourse and Christmas Cheer, despite the content that's being covered. As always, thanks for your love and support, y’all! 🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🚂🔔 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️
