[Moans Exclusive] Talking about some of my favorite holiday and Christmas movies and music!

Published: November 22nd 2024, 10:59:43 pm

Hi!

Similar to the horror movie/Halloween talk, I thought I'd talk about some holiday movies and music favs, since we're just under a week out from December! I actually made a little playlist of movies and songs to go with them, so SPOILERS below if you want to be surprised. I also do some reflecting about general audio/creative stuff at the end.

Enjoy and if you have any holiday movie/song pairings, I'd love to see them in the comments!!

Take care,

august 🌨️
