Episode 232: Movie producer Dan Angel tells us the best Christmas movies ever made

Dan Angel joins Rusty on the podcast to ring in the holiday season with the best Christmas movies ever made.
My friend Dan Angel is back on the podcast again, and it’s an honor to have him. It made sense to have such a great film producer and writer back on the podcast and this time, we’re talking about some of the greatest Christmas movies of all time. Take a listen as Dan and I go through our favorite Christmas movies and dissect what makes a truly wonderful film for the season. It was a great time recording this episode, so I hope you have just as much fun listening to it. And be sure to share your favorite Christmas movies with me in the comments below. 

Happy holidays from me and the Leading Simple team!
