Three-time guest Nicole Russell rejoins the committee for what was supposed to be a movie episode. However, about a month ago, we sat down and watched the movie: Kirk Cameron’s Saving Christmas. The experience left the three of us so deeply depressed, we couldn’t muster the enthusiasm or serotonin needed to record an episode. A month later, we’re emotionally healed enough to briefly relive the experience, if only as a warning to you, the audience, and humanity at large. We also talk the toys that attack little girls, the birds that attack Adam, and why it’s insane that McDonald’s employees aren’t paid more than dentists.

Hey everyone! Avery was off in Montreal at Just For Laughs, which is incredible, but unfortunately Canadians do not believe in Christmas or cheer so we were unable to record a new episode. So instead we put together a clip show of some of our favorite moments from the first 11 episodes. That's how soon you should have a clip show, right? I believe it is. Enjoy!

Look, a lot can happen when you record a podcast. You might, say, accidentally leave all the microphones off but one. And then you might have so much fun talking about all the weird Christmas monsters Dutch people invented to keep their children from talking shit about the king that you end up deciding to keep the episode even though it sounds kind of bad.

This was a fun one. Aaron Brooks gave us a primer on Midwest B-room comedy and we checked in with our very normal friends fighting the War on Christmas. THEN we get in to the saga of Legs, the Shorts-Wearing Cop. If we sound more energetic than last week it's because we recorded this one first.

It's our first movie episode and, like any good Christmas movie, this one is insane. It's two hours long, spans 8 centuries, the opening scene is Santa freezing to death and the last shot is John Lithgow in space, freezing to death. We did a deep dive into "Santa Claus: The Movie" with Nicole Russell so check it out, but also just get high and watch the movie because holy shit.
