032 - A Very Jonas Christmas Podcast

A Very Jonas Christmas and Other Season's Movies 🎄

We spent this episode wrapped up in twinkle lights and holiday chaos, giggling our way through the Jonas Brothers’ recent festive romp. (Ruha even saw a movie poster for it on her trip to Paris)

From cranking up Christmas playlists to debating which brother is the “relatable everyman,” we dove headfirst into the whimsical world of A Very Jonas Christmas Movie. Amongst the celebrity cameos, magical train detours, and a questionable canal jump (ew, but also… cinematic), we couldn’t help but connect the Jonas antics to our own holiday traditions.

Today's main topic: Christmas movies generally, but more specifically, A Very Jonas Christmas Movie. We broke down the plot, laughed at the brothers’ self-deprecating humor, and marveled at surprise appearances from Will Ferrell and Jesse Tyler Ferguson. Bekah’s daughter even took notes mid‑movie, proving that this holiday flick deserves at least four out of five stars. Spoiler alert: Kevin may or may not have been forgotten by Santa, but we’re here to remind you he’s still the dad‑energy glue holding it all together.

Along the way, we shared personal stories — Ruha’s kids refusing to watch anything non‑animated (except for Home Alone, obviously), Bekah’s daughter moonlighting as a film critic, and our mutual nostalgia (or lack thereof) for Disney‑era Jonas chaos. And yes, we had to Google whether Home Alone: The Musical was ever real (jury’s still out).

We wrapped things up with cozy reflections on our own must‑watch Christmas classics, a few snack shout‑outs, and the reminder that catching up with your besties — even while debating nepo babies and luxury candles like “Glow by Joe” — feels just like coming home.

Let us know in the comments: Glow by Joe or Wick by Nick?
