'Tis the holiday season and what better way to wrap up 2021 than to cross a classic (Elf, 2003) and a modern (Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey, 2020) holiday film off of our lists. We chat about what we love about both films and the accidental Buddy connection. Plus, we discuss what makes certain holidays films a part of our annual watching traditions.  On a personal note, thank you for a wonderful year with us and your support of It's On The List. Wishing you and yours a safe and happy 2022! See you in the new year!  xo Roni, Jams, Rach, & Jen  ----- Want more from us, be sure to follow us, we're @nerdycurious all over the damn place!

We continue on the Disney train this month with Jams leading the episode as Roni, Jen, and Rach crossing The Emperor's New Groove off their lists!  Eartha Kitt. Enough said really. Rach will never forgive Disney for leaving Yzma's delicious song on the cutting room floor. Fun fact: The Emperor's New Groove was not the original name of this project in its first iteration and in fact had a completely different story. You can read more about the film's evolution in this Vulture article and check out the unofficial documentary about the drama of the production between the creatives and the executives, The Sweatbox. ----- Want more from us, be sure to follow us, we're @nerdycurious all over the damn place!

Join Roni, Jams, and Rach (with an assist from Pixel Jen) as we share what we think are quintessentially American & Canadian comedies. In true Curious fashion, we go on a few tangents, but they led to some interesting discussions on acceptance, identity, and nostalgia. How do you define being American or Canadian?
