Show Notes

This week on Every Rom Com, we’re spending Christmas at the ranch as we discuss the gay Christmas rom com “Dashing in December”! Joined by guest Billy Ray Brewton of The Incinerator Podcast and Scripts Gone Wild, we explore both the tired tropes and unexpected delights of made-for-TV Christmas rom coms, and introduce you to some queer creators who are beginning to shake up the genre. Then we wrap up the episode with some holiday double feature ideas you won’t want to miss!
