The Christmas Challenge
Synopsis
Laura Ross is the host of the regionally respected and successful podcast, “Modernly Independent,” chronicling her independent lifestyle through all types of modern and old-fashioned traditions and activities.
Laura engages and inspires listeners to be themselves, choose their own path, and not fear the life of a single woman. She and her producer, Paul, are the best of friends but have never made the jump to more than that.
Complications arise once they are offered a chance to be picked up by a national podcast network as they aim to impress the network exec who joins their team. Once an anonymous listener submits a daily “Christmas Spirit Challenge,” an advent calendar of activities to get someone truly into the Christmas spirit of togetherness, their podcasting relationship is challenged to make room for new traditions.
