There are so many reasons to celebrate the close of the year and the renewing energy of the next! One big one for us is 4 years of TV Told Me! And 4 years of people like you listening to 2 friends that just love to chat TV. We end the holiday season with a reminder to downsize with “Hoarding for Holidays” (HBO), heroes exist- “Allen Iv3rson”(prime) and not everyone is perfect- “Alex vs A-Rod” (HBO).
