    *Does it really matter what I listen to?*

    *But my music's not "bad"...*

    Hey friend!

    -What are we choosing to listen to?

    -How does it make us feel?

    -How/why to choose good music

    Take care,

    Hello friends!

    Wasn't General Conference great this past weekend??

    To celebrate this time of year, I thought it would be fun to host a little game and bring in a couple of experts...

    In this bonus episode of Family Movie Night for Latter-day Saints, we bring back my sister Tori and introduce my husband Evan to the audience for a 20-question game guessing whether quotes come from Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, or General Conference.

    Listeners at home are invited to play along! See how your knowledge compares to my guests 😄

    ⭐If you'd like your own copy of the questions and answers to play at home with your family, be sure you are signed up for our weekly newsletter email because I will be sending out two emails this week (1. Our regular email. 2. The bonus email with the questions and answer of today's game)
