This Christmas Eve, we're unwrapping a special gift for everyone. Normally, our Rom-Com Recaps are exclusive to our Patreon partners, but for December we're sharing this one on the main feed as a thank-you and a holiday treat. In this episode, Jess is joined by Bri from our Patreon community to recap and unpack Happiest Season. The 2020 holiday rom-com starring Kristen Stewart and Mackenzie Davis set out to be a festive queer love story, but left many viewers divided. We dive into: The central relationship between Abby and Harper and why it frustrated us more than it warmed our hearts The emotional cost of closeting a partner and where consent breaks down Why Dan Levy's character delivers the most honest moment in the entire film The chemistry that arguably should have changed the ending Whether this movie was made for queer audiences or about them How family pressure, image management, and unspoken expectations shape holiday dynamics This conversation goes beyond a simple movie review. We talk honestly about coming out, family roles, emotional labour, and why "happily ever after" sometimes feels unearned. If you love rom-coms, have complicated feelings about Christmas, or have ever watched a holiday movie and thought "wait… this isn't actually okay," this episode is for you. 🎁 A Christmas gift from us to you.
