A New Year's Resolution

Episode 9: A New Year’s Resolution (2021)

Theme: Hallmark-esque Christmas Movies
Hosts: Oz & Curtis

This week Oz and Curtis wrap up Hallmark Month with A New Year’s Resolution — aka Yes Man meets the Wells Fargo account scandal. We follow Kelly, a Milwaukee morning show producer whose New Year’s resolution is to “say yes more,” and Tom, a bank marketing guy whose company is… accidentally criming. Polar plunges, obstacle courses, a suspiciously tiny chili cook-off, and a Gatsby-level 30th birthday party somehow all coexist in the same Milwaukee that apparently has one bakery and twelve board games.

Highlights include:

• Tom “guessing” resolutions like a discount Brian Fantana while Kelly bites her lip every 12 seconds.

• A nationwide bank fraud scandal solved in about as much time as it takes to brew a K-Cup.

• Two nieces who greet their uncle with the energy of golden retrievers spotting the mailman.

Final Verdict:

Oz — One solid New Year’s resolution to avoid Hallmark until next December.
Curtis — 23 board games and a copy of “Sorry.”
