Volume III: Is It Christmas?


Jamin reacts to It’s A Wonderful Life for the first time this episode, closing out our debatable Christmas lineup AND the season :( This black and white classic brings forth QUITE the discussion on suicide, authenticity in acting, character driven stories, and so much more!
