Xmas Eve, Not Xmas Steve

It’s a Christmas Eve special, recorded on “Christmas Eve Eve” (aka “Christmas Steve Eve”), where Husband and Wife roleplay the dreaded holiday boss fight: Uncle Dude Bro (a.k.a. Steve) and Aunt Karen, armed with bumper-sticker theology, cable-news grievances, and the unstoppable urge to ruin the ham with culture-war nonsense.

The hosts roll out a grab bag of survival tactics: polite shut-downs, hard redirects (“Who made this pie? It is criminally delish.”), allyship call-outs, and the crowd-pleasing move, weaponizing the Bible back at Christians (because if they want “biblical marriage,” congrats, they just signed up for polygamy, concubines, and assorted Old Testament weirdness).

This episode’s greatest hits include responses to: “It’s Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve,” “I’m not homophobic, but…,” and “People are too sensitive.” Also: a cameo from Gen Z queer energy, point, laugh, and hit ’em with the “stinky” hand-wave, and a mini-rant about how these “just joking” lines are often code for “I’d like credit for being nice while saying something mean.”
