MERRY CHRISTMAS

Jen sits down while visiting family to watch an entire Hallmark Christmas movie and comment and narrate to you all. In this exciting episode Jen is alarmed at the thought of putting tinsel on a tree before ornaments and how there are zero details about how this busy organizing business woman invented an app, and why is no one freaking out over the fact that this toy maker literally designed a hologram technology that doesn’t yet exist.

There was a LOT of ener...
