Cozyland EP 4 - "What's his name...?" (and other mysteries)
This is episode 04: What’s His Name…? And Other Mysteries
Escape to Cozyland! Your hosts Amy and Melissa have a lot in common, music, podcasting, a love of mysteries... and the not-so-guilty pleasure of cozy films and tv shows - you know the ones, with the predictable plots and familiar character traits. Each week we'll chat about new and upcoming tv shows and movies coming to what we like to call Cozyland!
So, grab those fuzzy socks, some snacks, and the tv remote, and join us in escaping the real world for a spell.
This week we discussed cozy mysteries. Mostly Hallmark, but also some other stuff including books! We gripe a little about TV channel apps. Amy has a beef with the Garage Sale Mysteries and the willy-nilly exchange of actors and characters. Amy’s dog, Vivian Pickles also makes an appearance. We also talk about our love for Brooke Shields and how we would like to see her in more of these movies. We also talk about fostering dogs (and foster failing).
We also talked about the best cozy gift you can give (it’s a wearable blanket). You can find it here: https://www.zulily.com/p/blush-ombr-plush-hooded-throw-601883-82307127.html
