  Speaker 1: By the way, I did not realize I've written a
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: pretty extensive blog post about Julie Sherman Wolf, and while
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: watching this movie, I saw her name come up, but
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I I know she wrote this one,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: so pleasantly surprised when I saw her name in the
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: opening credits. Peter Delouiz directed this project. Peter has directed

  Speaker 2: Marcus Rossner plays Alex. If we had to say which
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Hallmark movie among his sixty three credits is our favorite,
• 3:32

  Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break.

  Speaker 2: And we are gonna come right back with our first
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: impressions of the Birthday Wish. Hey, Wendy, what's your first
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: impression of the Birthday Wish?
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: So? I thought this movie was much better than February's
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: The Wish Swop, and I gave that movie four stars.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: So better birthday movie, better birthday movie of the two.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: I think my first impression is somebody find that giant
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: cookie for me, please. It's bigger than our whole head.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Now I can by cookie. Remember like those cookies from
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: you can get at the mall with like the frosting
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: on them. Missus g do you know what I was
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: just gonna say, tell me to say, have you seen
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: the new trend of cookie.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: Cakes all over TikTok?
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: No, Well, it's that they've come a long way. I've
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: seen so many of them that I've become convinced that
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: I could make my own. And I want to make
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: one for my upcoming children's birthdays. One of them would
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: like it, one of them wouldn't. I just like a
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: it's a cake. It's a cookie with frosting. They're so cute.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Wait, but how it's not flat? Right? Sure, it's flats?
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Is it just a cookie? Then with frosting on top
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: of it? Well, how do you make it to a cake?
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Well that's what they were called in the They were
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: called cookie cakes when they were in like the Missus Fields.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Hold on, I'm pulling up TikTok. I need to see
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: what a cookie cake. But what people will do is
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: they will stack too, so you will like do like
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a letter or a number, and then you do some
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: frosting in between the two layers, and then.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: You decorate the top.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Oh like they're making it in a sheet pan. Yeah yeah,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: oh interesting, and then you cut it into oh I
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I I it is not that hard, right, I mean,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: the frosting part would be hard, but well, especially if
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: you've never like decorated anything but high school I took
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: cookie decorated.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: We have class. But oh you hard to be.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: It can't be that hard. Get like those cute little
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: tips at Michael's and some pastry bags. Oh my, I mean,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: it's gonna taste good no matter what. But some of
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: these are really cute though. Oh there's one in many
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: square cookie pans like ten soil pans, and you can
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: make like individual ones.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: Oh ah, it's cute.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Have your daughter's friends decorate their own. That feels like
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: a lot of like you, because it's really only cute
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: when they.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Come out of the piping bags.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think sometimes I have like a
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: lot of piping bags and tips.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Okay, don't do that then, But these.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Are really but I don't I don't hate the idea
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: of the individual squares. But anyway, the idea is people
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: typically do them like you would do like a fifteen,
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: like a I was gonna say, a one and a five,
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: as if you couldn't figure that out for yourself, or
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: they cut them out in the shape of a letter
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: or some like this one you just sent me. She
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: has some that are just straight up rectangles, like decorated
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: like a cake. Yeah, we are so off target here,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: but I I really want to attempt to make a
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: cookie cake and worst case scenario, like we just eat
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: it at our house because it's just gonna be a
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: cookie and frosting.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: How bad it be? Sure?
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, how did we start talking about?
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Okay, we're talking about the giant cookie and then oh, that's.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Right, that's right, right, that's right. Let's get back to
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: the movie. What did you like? Well? I did think
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: this was a really fun storyline. Yeah, I enjoyed the
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: movie overall. I thought that the payoff at the end
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: pheels earned. I especially loved Jesse Shram and Luke McFarlane
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: in these roles. Like I forget how much I like
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Jesse because she's not in that many movies. Missic Christmas
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: was the last one loved her in that. I did
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: like a Nashville Christmas Carol as well. She's just adorable, natural,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: super likable, super cute. I thought Luke was great, and
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: I know Luke, you know, reported that he got tired
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: of playing these kind of roles. But He's so damn
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: funny and charming in the I just loved him, loved him.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I thought they had great chemistry. I just yeah, good casting. Yeah,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I did like it. I also liked Marcus Rosner. Now
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I do feel bad that he got like the terrible
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: narcissistic boyfriend. Sure he played it well though, And I
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: just think back when we saw him on stage in
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Kansas City and he really wowed me with his personal
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: stories about Christmas time, and I think he's really good.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: I hate saying this, but I want him to be
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: a lead in better movies.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of the work he does is
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: with his own production company. I mean, he's certainly on Hallmark,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: but I don't think he gets enough opportunity to shine
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: on Hallmark. I wanted to piggyback on a couple of
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: the other things that you said, Starting with Jesse Shram
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: she always delivers. I remember when we first started Girls
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Gone Hallmark, that woulde a Nashville Christmas Carol was pretty
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: early on in our lineup, and I remember we were like,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: is that Jesse Shramp or is it Anna Camp?
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Right? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that confusion is completely gone.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Jesse Shram stands alone. She's a star.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: I think she's fun and light and really good on screen.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: But remember when we talked about Bethany joy Lenz recently
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: in Royal mad you talked about how she makes the
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: distinction in your mind between actors and Hallmark actors, and
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: a difference, whatever the difference may be. I think Jesse Shram.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Is another one of those where she is an actor who.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Does well on Hallmark, but is not purely a Hallmark actor. Right,
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: You're comment about Luke McFarland. Like, to me, I'm like, oh,
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: that's baby Luke McFarlane. I thought it was great to
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: see him. I know it was only eight years ago,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: but it feels like one million years ago, and it
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: also feels like it's miles and miles from the Luke
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: we know now. And I like both Luke's I like
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: this classic Hallmark movie Luke a lot look. I like
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: the new Luke. I love him on Platonic. I love
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: his new show Where the Heart Is. I think it's
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: real fun.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: But this Hallmark Luke was pretty great. I think so too.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: He doesn't disappoint to me in any he's in Never
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Never Ever. I never go uh.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: He was fine, but it should have.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Been somebody else. Never. I always enjoy him in his
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: movies and his roles he plays.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: I really loved the speaking of his role.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I really love the character of Dave, and I like
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: how he's not really being coy about his affection for Gwen.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: For Gwen thank you, I mean, he lays it all
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: out on the table. He's talking about them being a
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: good partner. She's like at work and he was like
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: and other places too, Like he's really clear about the
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: fact that he likes her, and he's putting it on
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: the table and he thinks her boyfriend's a buffood and
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: he just continues to show up in really sweet ways
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: for her. And there's not really any confusion.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: We're not.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Trying to figure out like what did he mean? Kind
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: of like dating the Delineys, where Yeah, this character doesn't
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: really even though the Rachel Boston back his friend character
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: is like, there's no such thing as a practice date, right,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: He's not really putting it out there. Rachel Boston's character
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: isn't really like fully aware of the vibe here. Luke's like, Luke,
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Dave is putting it all out there. It's real clear.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: What's happening, and now it's up to Gwen's character to
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: make something of it. And I just I love a
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: straightforward man. Yeah, so do I. But let me ask you, though,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: because you hate a storyline where there is another person involved,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: a boyfriend or a girlfriend, right, And did you hate
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: that Luke was Luke Dave was pursuing Gwynn even though
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: she had a boyfriend.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: No, it's in my wishes to talk about the relationship.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: But no, I didn't hate that he was pursuing her.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: I now, maybe it's unfair. I didn't find him to
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: be behaving inappropriately. Okay, He like brought her a cookie
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: for her birthday and he brought her flowers. I think
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: he was putting it out there like yo, I'm here.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: He wasn't physically pursuing her, And at no point did
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: she make it seem like like something starts to happen
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and she was like, I can't do this, I'm still
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: in a relationship, and he backed off. If it were
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: a woman, would we call her a homework or maybe
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, but maybe Luke gets a pass.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: I don't know. It didn't bother me, and quite frankly, I.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Didn't feel like it was on him to decide what
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: was appropriate and what was not. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha? I
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: have it. Just a few more little likes. I love
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: me a magical realism storyline. I loved it in the
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Magic of Lemon Drops. I love it here. I don't know.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I would have never have characterized myself as someone who
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: likes that genre, but.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: I really do.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: I really like it a lot. I very much connected
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: to Gwynn's obsession with planning things as a mechanism to
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: gain control, a sense of control. I just felt that
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: was very relatable to me. And finally, I thought this
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: movie had a Julie Sherman Wolf written all over it.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Sharp witty dialogue, self awareness. It was a freshish traditional storyline,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: had like an energy that you know, I think maybe
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: didn't movies didn't have so much in twenty seventeen. On Home.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no way this came out in twenty seventeen.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: People weren't going like, oh, what do.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: We have here?
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Exactly, exactly. Yeah.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: My final like is just the Julie Sherman Wolf of
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: it all. The comedy, there's some really funny lines, like
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: when Marcus Rossner's character is like I'm going to be
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: an actor. She's like, oh, you got the lead, and
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: he's like, nope, I have two lines. Just there's so
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: much of that infused throughout so fun I agree, let's
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: talk wishes well.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: I hated, hated, hated that this successful, smart, cute fun
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: gal was wishing so hard to be proposed to digging
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: through her food for a ring.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Stop it.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: It just was her whole personality. She had so much
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: going for her. I just was a little put off
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: that she was like so obsessed with, like, where where's
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: the ring?
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Where's there?
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: This guy was not the guy.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: One hundred percent is echoes one of my wishes. My
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: notes says she was a badass at work and a
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: complete woos in her relationship.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: M m.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: Speaking of her relationship, I really wish she would have
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: broken up with Alex sooner. He was very clearly not
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: the guy. He was stringing her along. He knew what
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: she wanted, he wasn't able to get it. He was narcissistic.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: But at the same time, my notes also say justice
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: for Marcus Rossner, and I just keep calling him Marcus Rossner. Uh,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: even though I'm talking about Alex here. Alex yes is
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: a little is a little to a lot self absorbed.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: He was not the right guy for her. I don't
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: actually think he's a bad guy. I don't think he
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: was a good boyfriend, but I don't think he's evil.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: When we first meet him, I'm like, Oh, he's just
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: kind of a buffoon. He's just kind of he's not
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: going to be the guy. There's not going to be
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: anything aspirational about him. But I also don't think he
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: deserved the way in which he was kind of strung
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: along because she just had this vision of I mean,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: they were striking to each other along, but I think
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: she just had this vision of the perfect life and
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: she was like, well, I'm so much closer to it
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: with Alex as opposed to Dave, who I hardly even know.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: To me, it felt like she was like, I'm going
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: to stay in this relationship until I get this vision
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: of what I want, while still allowing her relationship with
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Dave took herow. I just wanted them to end this
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: relationship sooner.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, me too. I think that the character of Alex
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: for me, he was a buffoon. It meane I had
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: a hard time understanding like what Gwenn saw on him. Yeah,
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: and I was like, Okay, now that leads me to wonder,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: was she just wanting to get engaged to be engaged,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: not because she was actually in love with him? So
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: silf respect Yeah exactly when that other woman gets engaged
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: at the restaurant and she's just looking on sadly, I
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: literally shouted at my screen, leave him, like this relationship
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: is over. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I agree. One
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: other thing that I didn't really love is that they
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: were putting so much emphasis on Gwen turning thirty, and
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: for me, I'm like, it's just like furthers that narrative
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: like thirties old and women are running out of time,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: and like, don't do that. Don't do that, is what
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. I have one final wish, and it is
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: I needed a little more closure on the eye doctor storyline.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I just kind of maybe wanted her to
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: return to him and have him like even just offer
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: her like a little wink in a nod that oh
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: they want in on something together. That yeah, helped facilitate
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: her seeing her future.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: I didn't need like a long drawn out explanation of
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: his role. I just wanted something there to wrap that
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: all up.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that would have been good. Are you ready for
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: we did to see that? I am, but I don't
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: have any Oh okay, well, let's sit back, relax and
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: enjoy the show.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: First up, they're playing with the.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Puppies and days like he's just teething. You can't even
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: feel it. Lies. Lies.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Puppy teeth are like shark teeth. They do hurt. Are
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: they going to hurt you? Like, they're not going to
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: cause actual harm, but they will break your skin. They
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: will make you bleed, and their teeth are like little needles.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, I agree. I agree.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: She's like that was bad at all. I'm like, you're
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: a liar.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but that.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: Sweet puppy breath though, I know all they're so and
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: they're tummies. I know in the s'mores scene when and
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Dave were there together and they are talking to that
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: older couple, Gwen gets up to leave and they like
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: shoot to Dave sitting by the fire pit and he's
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: all alone, like you can see the other benches and
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: there's nobody there, and.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: Then Gwen comes back.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Dave's gone, but the couple's there, and it was weird
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: because like I felt like the couple.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: Didn't leave and come back. You know what I mean?
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Like they there was like a continuity. Err, yeah, yes, yes, yes,
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: I just think it's an oopsy. The final one is
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: from IMDb because Gwen comments sarcastically an ad agency from
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: nineteen sixty one and Jesse Shram was in Madmen? Was
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: She a show about an ad agency in the nineteen sixties.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: That's she played Bunny, a real estate girlfriend of Pete Campbell.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: That is a show. I never watched me either. I
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: wonder if we should maybe Mad Women preview podcasts.
