About this episode

The hosts discuss the Jonas Brothers' holiday movie and explore various related questions and topics.

The Jonas Brothers surprised Kerry and Collin with their charming holiday offering this past season that they decided to devote an entire episode to "A Very Jonas Christmas Movie." Please know that the hosts have little to no knowledge of the Brothers Jonas and their back-catalog, so be patient with the little that they do know. What exactly is figgy pudding (Andrea Martin wanted to know, so the question is being asked on her behalf)? Is Jesse Tyler Ferguson's Santa beard real or fake? Finally, if the Jonas Brothers returned for a version of A Christmas Carol , who would they play? And how would Miley Cyrus fit in? All this, plus a cheerfully jaunty Book segment. Book movies covered: Underground (1995) Head-On (2004) The Sorrow and the Pity (1969) Visit collinsouter.com RogerEbert.com Follow Collin and Kerry on Letterboxd.
