Hey ya'll! As a little treat, here's a peak at Jess & Liz's other podcast "Carrey'd Away" where we talked about "The Grinch" with Andrew Keenan-Bolger. Check it out if you're interested! 

Guess who's coming to town this holiday season? No, it's not Santa, it's Jim Carrey's iconic Grinch from the 2000 film, "How the Grinch Stole Christmas!" We had the pleasure of bantering with Broadway's Andrew Keenan-Bolger, who once donned green fur as JoJo and young Max in the stage rendering of this tale. We strolled down memory lane, reminiscing about our own connections with Carrey as the green grouch, and Andrew spilled the beans about a special screening, and his Grinch stint that surprisingly didn't draw from Carrey's interpretation. Spoiler Alert: The film's marketing blitzkrieg and its ripple effects on all things Grinch were quite a chat fodder.

Now who can speak of the Grinch without diving into the nitty-gritty of its making? From Carrey's reluctance to play the Grinch to the Herculean efforts that turned him into the character, we've got the deets for you. We couldn't help gushing about the makeup and visual effects, clearly ahead of their time, but we did pause to discuss whether the film did justice to Dr. Seuss's original masterpiece. Opinions were split, but that's where the fun lies, right? Buckle up as we bring to you a rollercoaster of reviews, a fun game of guessing 'Letterboxd' star ratings, and a face-off between the recent Grinch remake and the original.
