Elf

Send us some fan mail!

Ever found yourself choked up by the cinematic warmth of "Elf" during the holidays? You're not alone. This week's episode is a holiday treat, unwrapped with care as we share our tradition of watching Buddy's sugary antics and discuss the laughter and unexpected tears it elicits. We're giving props to Jon Favreau for his directorial magic and chatting about the comedic genius of Will Ferrell. From behind-the-scenes trivia to the real effects of a candy-crammed diet, join us for a heartfelt homage to a film that's nestled itself firmly into our Christmas traditions.

Do you have a list of Christmas movies that veer off the beaten path? We're serving up a buffet of Yuletide flicks that range from the darkly comedic "Krampus" to the mischievously fun "Gremlins," and yes, we're wading into the "Die Hard" debate with bells on. Our stroll down holiday movie lane includes a nod to the lesser-known gems that deserve a spot in your seasonal lineup. Plus, we're taking a merry detour to explore the mythical origins of Santa Claus and follow Buddy's heartwarming quest from the North Pole to the Big Apple, complete with all the magical chaos you'd expect.

As the snow settles on our festive episode, we let our imaginations fly with speculations on "Elf" sequel scenarios that just might become your next holiday fantasy. From the dramatic showdown with Central Park Rangers to the community's chorus that could lift the heaviest of sleighs, we're unpacking the climactic scene that caps off Buddy's adventure. So, pull up a chair, pour some hot cocoa, and join us for a conversation that's as cozy as an elf-sized Christmas sweater. Remember to keep the holiday cheer going long after the credits roll, and we'll catch you next week for another lively discussion—just maybe leave the syrup out of your coffee this time.
