A Christmas deep dive nobody asked for... but you'll be glad exists. Unwrapping The Mistle-Tones is a smart, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt look at the 2012 ABC Family movie The Mistle-Tones - starring Tia Mowry and Tori Spelling. Host Nick Jaworski returns to the same film, episode after episode, to explore topics ranging from race, grief, work, nostalgia, and the magic of the American mall. Featuring experts in psychology, sociology, and music culture, this is a show for anyone who loves pop-culture analysis, storytelling, and delightfully overthinking the things we love.
