Yes, we're a little late for Christmas but that's because we were busy watching Michael Caine act his ass off in front of a bunch of Muppets. Jake, Holden, and Mike talk about their favorite Christmas movies and TV specials, and unlike the Chanukah episode there isn't time to list them all. And yes Die Hard gets it due because we're not having that argument and if you try we're throwing you off Nakatomi Plaza. Holden talks us through the qualifications of what makes something Christmasy and yes, sometimes it involves Jimmy Stewart trying to off himself and Phoebe Cates' dad burning alive in a chimney. Enjoy!

Get ready for the festival of lights that lasts eight nights with about half a dozen TV specials and movies that you can enjoy gelt free every Chanukah! Jake talks about growing up Jewish and celebrating a traditional Chanukah, Mike explains what it's like only be half Jewish and never more than half interested in Chanukah and Holden keeps talking about how Christmas is better even though we know it's better. What's nerdier than spinning a dreidel and eating bread the way you were supposed to thousands of years ago? Yes we gush over Rugrats but also talk about the newfangled trend of Hallmark Chanukah movies, and our Hebrew lord and savior, Adam Sandler.

The Rock was on top of the world for years but now he's making moves that have raised everyone else's eyebrows but his own. In the past few years he's tried to lay the smackdown on Vin Diesel, the DC universe, and...Christmas? What happens when a manly man becomes more of a brandy brand? And is it possible to still call yourself the people's champion when the people have turned on you and no longer like the smell of what you're cooking? Is the most electrifying man in entertainment out of juice or is it possible for him to kick out at 2 and be on top again?
