  • Love this unique format!

    They don’t do movie reviews per se— it’s a fun, competitor top 10 list creating competition and through that they talk about the hallmark movies being drafted into the lost. Great insights, lots of fun!

  • Love this podcast! The hosts and panelists are knowledgable and fun. Such a great twist on the usual Hallmark movie review pods. Instead, every episode their guests create a top 10 list of the best Hallmark movies in different categories and slide their reviews in that way!
