Merry Christmas, everyone!

Oh my god, I know it's not quite Christmas, but Thanksgiving is over, so it's finally socially acceptable for me to completely lean into my love of Christmas time.

I mean, let's be honest, I've been celebrating since a few days before Halloween. I love this time of year, and I've mentioned this before, and I'll say it again, but I feel like this year more than ever we need Christmas.

We need the holiday season, we need the happiness, we need the lights, we need the music, we need the gifts, we need all of it just to kind of help us cope with everything that's going on in the world.

I mean, every day we wake up and we check our phones, and there's a new news story that is more devastating than the day before.

So during these tumultuous times, I think it's important that we put on some fuckin' vincrosby, some rye carry, and we listen, and we eat a lot of cookies, we eat too many cookies, and we decorate with way too much garland, and we put our fuckin' twinkle lights in every corner of the house.

Ooh, and you guys, I just got a new ornament in the mail. It's actually a duplicate ornament, and it is a duplicate of my Rosie O'Donnell ornament.

You guys know I love Rosie O'Donnell.

And so last year I got in the mail an ornament of Rosie O'Donnell. It's like a cartoon Rosie, and I don't know if you remember back in the 90s, the late 90s, she had like a little cartoon version of herself on the show all the time.

And by the way, she actually came out with two holiday albums. Now Mandy Moore has zero holiday albums, but Rosie O'Donnell has two holiday albums. So let's just all let that sink in for a second.

But anyway, in the late 90s, she was the queen of daytime TV and Christmas and all that, and she had a line of cartoon ornaments that she sold for charity.

So last year in the mail, I got one of them with no return address. I have no idea who sent it to me. No clue. If you're out there, please let me know.

Otherwise, I'm just assuming it was an angel that came down from heaven and put in front of my mailbox. But anyway, I loved it so much. It's like my favorite ornament.

And of course, I'm like taking it out this year and I was like, oh shit, like what if this breaks? It's sort of fragile, you know? And I keep it in the box and I keep it very protected as I can.

But I don't want this to break. So I ordered a second one off eBay. So now I have two Rosie O'Donnell Christmas ornaments, like one backup.

And then one that's on my tree. And it's like, I don't I don't know what's wrong with me really, but I love it. And the other ornaments ornaments on my tree are just so lovely.

I try to do like a grown up tree. So there's a color scheme, but then I'm putting all my pop culture ornaments on. And I have like a share ornament, a reba ornament.

I have a Wonder Woman ornament. I have those Mermaid ornaments, which are like those shirtless guys who they have mermaid tails.

And it's like the gayest tree in the world ever. The gayest tree. But it's lovely and I love it.

And my second Rosie one just came in the mail. So I'm super excited I got it. Got my backup. Ready to go.

I have a great show for you guys today. I'm going to be talking to Marcus Hill. He's a producer who has produced tons of those wonderful hallmark in lifetime holiday movies that we all love.

And he's got one on this year. He's got a couple of them coming on this year that he produced. But one of them is called wrapped up in Christmas. And I just watched it. And I'm obsessed with it. I loved it. It's going to be on lifetime.
