Ep 52: Why So Many of Us Can't Stop Watching Hallmark Movies

Are you one of those Hallmark movie junkies? I have friends who go whole-hog, plopping down on the couch, propping up their feet, showing off those fuzzy socks that say “Leave Me Alone, I’m watching Hallmark movies”! Catch that plural “Hallmark movie(s)”. You can never “eat” just one! Why are those darn things so addictive, and a little contagious even? You may have been wondering just that, even as you can't help rewatching your favorite storylines, romances, and characters. In this lighthearted episode, multi-award-winning author and global marriage educator, Ramona Zabriskie, and her daughter, Hannah, a member of Team WifeSavers, try to solve the riddle about what our penchant for predictable romances, reveal about us as women.
