Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #517: Welcome To The Party Pal!

We’re closing out 2025 the only way that makes sense: with explosions, one-liners, and a whole lot of holiday chaos. For our final episode of the year, we’re revisiting the action classic Die Hard and breaking down what makes it such an enduring favorite. From John McClane’s reluctant heroism to unforgettable villains, iconic moments, and the eternal “is it a Christmas movie?” debate, we’re going out with a bang—yippee-ki-yay and all.
