POPULARITY
Melissa is back to talk Christmas at Castle Hart! This film includes an all-star cast that includes Lacey Chabert, Stuart Townsend, and the amazingly talented Ali Hardiman. In my humble opinion, this is the best of the movies so far, and that isn't just my Irish roots talking. My only regret is that we couldn't secure sponsorship from Kerrygold. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
