Episode 26: Thanksgiving Movies, Family Fights, and Awkward Homecomings

Do You Even Binge? Episode 26

Felipe and Lesa celebrate the post Thanksgiving weekend with a feast of films all tied to the holiday spirit. From animated classics to family dramas, we’re diving into everything from A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving to indie hits like Pieces of April.

In This Episode:

• Charlie Brown and Family Holiday Chaos: We unpack Peppermint Patty’s self-invited Thanksgiving, Snoopy snacks, and even a wild Family Guy gag where Peter finally lets Charlie Brown kick the football.
• Indie and Classic Drama: Felipe and Lesa analyze Hannah and Her Sisters, The Big Chill, and The Ice Storm, exploring themes of family tension, existential crises, and awkward holiday dynamics.
• Pieces of April & Home for the Holidays: We reflect on messy family dinners, awkward reunions, and the small moments that make holiday films both relatable and memorable.

Perfect for anyone still recovering from the turkey coma or looking for holiday movie inspiration.
