About this episode
Today, In the second of a trio of episodes where members of the Fine Beats and Cheeses team, we talk 2006's new classic movie, "The Holiday" and our guest is our very own co-host, Leslie Gray Streeter. We talk knowing your worth, loving people who love you back, the thought of swapping houses with perfect strangers at the very last minute, and how pretty Jude Law is. Oh, and we talk how we have wanted to fight two of the characters in this movie for almost 20 years. This is one of our favorite movies, and we hope you like this episode.
