In this episode of Pop Culture Weekly with Kyle McMahon, Christmas isn't all jingle bells and merry carols, especially when Amanda Baez returns and shakes things up with her candid take on the holiday season. To make things worse...or better (?) they return from break after a few potent, holiday themed martinis added a sprinkle of...spontaneity... to their holiday spirit. (aka they're drunk from a work lunch)

Then their discussion takes a more festive turn as they share a laugh over their favorite Christmas movies, From the timeless mischief of "Home Alone" to the warm-hearted charm of "The Santa Clause", you don't want to miss Kyle or Amanda's lists of their Favorite Christmas Movies.  They're not just raving about the usual classics, though—get ready for some lively debates over  "The Polar Express"  and a surprising new favorite, "Red One." Each film on their list brings a touch of nostalgia, humor, or even a fresh twist to the festive cinematic landscape.

With a lot of alcohol, this episode is a merry mishmash of laughter, reflection, and the kind of storytelling that makes the holiday season truly magical. Whether you’re a Christmas fanatic or a festive skeptic, there’s something here to jingle your bells!

00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:46.280

you know.

17
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:48.000
From year to year.

18
00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:50.200
It's like, oh my god, these are my favorite Christmas movies,

19
00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:55.600
and it's always interesting to get somebody else's take on

20
00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:56.280
what their.

21
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:58.560
Favorite Christmas movies are. We're also going to do our

22
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:01.439
worst favorite, are most hated?

00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:05.519

I'm doing good? Thank you for joining me again.

27
00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:11.280
Thank you for having me.

28
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.599
Of course, it's always fun having you. That sounded so weird,

29
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:18.840
but oh my god, it's always fun when you're on

30
00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:19.159
the show.

31
00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:20.319
I know what you mean.

32
00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:25.319
Thank you. Yeah. Anyway, so today it's all about our.

33
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:29.920
Favorite Christmas movies. I've done this episode or something similar

34
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:33.799
a few times. But I did notice, just like my

35
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:38.040
list of favorite movies, like a number of them change

36
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:42.640
throughout time. So like I might say, you know, Lord

37
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:45.560
of the Rings is my favorite even though that's six movies,

38
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:48.879
Lord of the Rings is my favorite movie. Yeah, next

39
00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:50.319
year that might be number two.

40
00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:51.599
I think everybody goes through that.

41
00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:54.560
Yeah yeah, but it's always like, for the most part,

42
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:57.719
the top ten is always i'd say seven of them

43
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:00.640
are always in there in some number, you know what

44
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:00.920
I mean.

45
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:05.040
So what are you are you? Are you excited for Christmas?

46
00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:10.039
Sure? I know I'm not. Wait what I don't?

47
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:10.520
Why not?

48
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:13.919
I'm not a big Christmas person honestly, And I feel

49
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:16.840
like I'm obligated to say that, yes, I'm excited for Christmas,

50
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:20.520
but deep down inside, I'm not a Christmas person at all.

51
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:23.400
Why did I just feel like.

52
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:27.479
When you were a child, yeah, drop kick me and everything.

53
00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:30.759
I just feel like ever since I was a child,

54
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:33.759
which you know, ironic, but ever since I was a child,

55
00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:38.120
I just did not like the hustle and bustle of Christmas,

56
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:40.080
Like if the hustle and bustle of Christmas just pisses

57
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:42.719
me off. And I feel like everyone is so fake

58
00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:45.439
around the holidays because everyone's complaining that they put the

59
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:47.560
Christmas lights up, the Christmas She's gotta go up, they

60
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:51.439
gotta get presents, and everyone just sounds so miserable, and

61
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:54.840
I'm like, guys, chill out, like I know, this is tradition,

62
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:58.520
this is whatever, but no one's happy. Like when you

63
00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:02.680
really think about it, no one happy. Like nobody nowadays

64
00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:07.560
really you know, likes their family. Oh wait, what Well,

65
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:14.159
I feel like, okay, listen, I feel like we all

66
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:17.879
have issues with our families that during the holidays, all

67
00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:21.120
you hear about tummy Kyle. You rarely hear about Yeah,

68
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:23.960
my family was over and it was amazing. There was

69
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.479
not one fight. All. You never hear that we all

70
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:30.120
got along, or when you do, it's very rare.

71
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:33.199
I feel like my family gatherings are like that.

72
00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:35.159
My god, Well, maybe I'm just part of a dysfunction,

73
00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:38.960
but I don't know. I just feel like for me

74
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:41.639
and my circle of friends and like the people that

75
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:45.199
I talk to, I just don't get the Christmas spirit.

76
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:47.800
Yeah, no, I get that. And here's the other thing.

77
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:50.120
You know, we've in my family have had a lot

78
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:52.400
of loss over the last few years. So I think

79
00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:55.199
it's a little bit different for us because it's like

80
00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:59.960
we're cherishing every moment because we've had such immense law.

81
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:03.199
You know, we've lost you know, three major loved ones

82
00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:05.080
and you know, my mom, my mom, mom, and my

83
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:09.120
uncle in three years. So it's like I think we

84
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.159
my family in particular, views it a little different right

85
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:15.840
now because it's like, oh my god, who's next. You know,

86
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:18.480
we're like getting smaller and smaller, so it's like we

87
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:21.480
want to cherish those moments. But I totally understand what

88
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:25.360
you are saying, especially with like the hustle and bustle,

89
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:27.920
because it's freaking stressful.

90
00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:30.519
It is stressful, and it just freaks me out. Like

91
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:33.439
I just feel like I can't go into the mall

92
00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:36.560
or it can't shop. I just feel like everyone's on

93
00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:39.800
this holiday mode and they don't take into consideration other

94
00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:43.600
people's feelings and they're just very impatient, and I just

95
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:47.319
do not like the people. The people is what makes

96
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:50.839
me dislike the time of year. It's not the actual

97
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:52.959
like Christmas lights, and it's not like you know, the food,

98
00:04:53.240 --> 00:04:56.040
it's just the people in the attitude. Like everyone can

99
00:04:56.079 --> 00:05:01.279
sense a shift in the in society when December first hits,

100
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.839
and it's like it's not in my cases that I've noticed.

101
00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:07.759
It's not a good one because everybody's just so impatient

102
00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:11.160
and everyone's just so anxious and stress rightfully so because

103
00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:13.279
they're trying to do all these things I want, and

104
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:17.600
it's just disheartening to hear people just talk about how

105
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:20.199
miserable they are, and I'm just you.

106
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:23.000
Know, everybody's just like in a rash in their own

107
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:25.399
zone kind of I don't want to say selfish, but

108
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:28.639
like no selfish, you know what I mean.

109
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:31.879
Very like the holiday itself is not what you know

110
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:35.600
makes me, you know, you know what I mean. But

111
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:39.040
it's just I just don't like this time of year

112
00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:43.759
because I just feel like there's no authenticity with people

113
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:45.800
because they're just so focused on themselves. And like, you know,

114
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:49.240
by all means you can do that, but people their attitudes.

115
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:51.720
You know, when you put the attitude on me and

116
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:54.759
people around you when you're out and about, that's what

117
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:56.839
I have a problem. I'm like, listen, Jeef, like what

118
00:05:56.839 --> 00:05:59.279
are you talking about right now? Like I understand little

119
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:02.959
JOHNI needs to little present. Yeah, but you have no

120
00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:05.800
right to yell at this target worker who gets paid

121
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:08.279
a whack weight, who just trying to do their job,

122
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:10.319
you know what I mean? Yeah, and not everyone's like

123
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:14.519
that and I know that, but I just don't. I

124
00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:15.079
just do not.

125
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:18.079
Yeah, And it starts for me with what you're saying.

126
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:20.439
It starts on Black Friday. Oh yes, you know what

127
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:23.199
I mean? Or sure I went. I made the mistake

128
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:25.519
and I didn't even realize it was. But so I

129
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:27.759
used to go Black Friday shopping. I would like go out,

130
00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:30.639
you know, at midnight, blah blah blah, and do the

131
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:34.279
whole thing. And now I'm just like why because I

132
00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:36.920
would always end up buying way too much stuff, and

133
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:39.279
then literally that weekend I would return half of it

134
00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:40.279
because I would.

135
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:42.600
Get in that oh my god, this TV for four

136
00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:44.680
hundred dollars, one thousand dollars.

137
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:46.800
So I'd buy all this stuff that I didn't need

138
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:50.079
and I'm like, half of it's for me, which it

139
00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:52.600
wasn't what I was shopping for anyway. And then like,

140
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:54.560
I don't even need any of this stuff, why am

141
00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:56.839
I buying it? So I would literally spend the weekend

142
00:06:56.879 --> 00:07:00.399
and now there's giant lines, so I would spend that

143
00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:04.319
the Black Friday weekend like in lines at places, returning

144
00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:06.959
all the stuff that. So anyway, I made the mistake

145
00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:08.879
this year of going with my boy Zach.

146
00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:09.959
Shout out to Zach.

147
00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:12.360
Singer came over to help me with something and then

148
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:14.199
like we were going to get lunch or something, and

149
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:17.319
we went to the mall not even thinking like it's

150
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:20.800
Black Friday. Yeah, And like once we got into the

151
00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:24.279
line of cars to get in one of the entrances

152
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:29.199
to the giant complex of the mall, I was like, wow,

153
00:07:29.399 --> 00:07:31.000
there's a lot of people, but it still didn't dawn

154
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:32.000
on me like Black Friday.

155
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:32.399
Yeah.

156
00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:36.160
Once we got to the actual mall, like outside, and

157
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:39.120
there were zero parking lots and you know there's probably

158
00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:42.920
ten thousand parking lots at that mall, zero parking spots.

159
00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:46.240
I'm like, oh god, it's Black Friday. I'm like, we're

160
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:49.519
going to get lunch at the mall on Black Friday.

161
00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:50.560
Like that's so dumb.

162
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:54.879
And what started happening was to try to get back out,

163
00:07:55.319 --> 00:07:58.120
everybody's like honking at you. I'm like, bro, I can't

164
00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:00.680
there's seventeen cars in front of me. I can't go anywhere.

165
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:01.519
Where are you honking at me?

166
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:02.399
Exactly?

167
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:03.480
Yes?

168
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:05.199
And then it stresses me out and I'm like, I

169
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:06.959
wasn't even in stressed before.

170
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:08.079
Now I am you know what I mean?

171
00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:11.279
And everything is just delayed because you know, shout out

172
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:13.319
to the postal service people, but like they have to

173
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:15.959
work over time, so then the male is more likely

174
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:18.720
to get lost and packages are delayed that you genuinely need.

175
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:20.879
Not even thinking about Christmas, and I'm just like, this

176
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:22.040
is just terrible.

177
00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:24.639
Like then you have the porch pirates and all that.

178
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:29.759
Yes, and sometimes it's not even a present. It's just

179
00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:32.360
like something that for my dog or whatever, like dog food.

180
00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:35.799
You know, it's I don't even know. It's just I'm

181
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.200
not like a hater, but when it comes to the holidays,

182
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:44.840
I just do not feel any joy that they're promoting

183
00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:49.000
that they're promoting. And you know, maybe it's because of

184
00:08:49.879 --> 00:08:52.720
where I am or you know, who I associate myself with,

185
00:08:52.840 --> 00:08:54.879
But when I go out in public and try to

186
00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:57.360
do things, I'm just I hear skimming in the background

187
00:08:57.399 --> 00:09:00.399
and I hear, you know, just honking like you said,

188
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:02.600
and it's like, oh my goodness, I don't even want

189
00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:03.960
to go out. I want to go out.

190
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:06.639
Damn. I want to cancel Christmas now. No, no, I

191
00:09:06.639 --> 00:09:15.679
don't merry Christmas. Everybody. Thanks for listening. Yeah you know what?

192
00:09:15.799 --> 00:09:22.679
Yeah, all right, well that was a great intro to

193
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:24.120
our Christmas episode.

194
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:26.159
Oh my god, you should put this at the end.

195
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:29.360
Or I mean, like, now that we've expressed our love

196
00:09:29.480 --> 00:09:32.879
for these Christmas movies, we actually hate it or I

197
00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:33.639
actually hate it.

198
00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:36.840
Do you have any cool Christmas traditions that you do?

199
00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:39.440
I don't have nothing, really nothing. I don't have anything.

200
00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:42.000
You don't like do something? Have something you do every year?

201
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:42.519
No?

202
00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:48.399
Just watch movies, like with your family or anything. No,

203
00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:51.320
you guys have Christmas dinner or lunch.

204
00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:53.799
Or breakfast or no?

205
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.000
Wait really yeah?

206
00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:57.440
Do you not have a place to go you can

207
00:09:57.440 --> 00:09:57.919
come to mind?

208
00:09:58.000 --> 00:09:59.919
What? Like? No, I have a house.

209
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:02.360
No. I didn't mean like you're homeless.

210
00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:04.240
I mean like, do you have like a place to

211
00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:06.480
go have Christmas dinner or something.

212
00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:09.399
No, Well, you're welcome to my house if you want.

213
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:11.159
I'm having a thank you.

214
00:10:12.039 --> 00:10:13.639
It's white people food that I'm just telling you that

215
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:19.120
now because I, uh.

216
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:20.720
You know, I'm not a cook, so it is basic

217
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:24.000
well like mac and cheese. Well, yeah, we'll do they

218
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:27.600
want me to. I'm like, I'm like, you want me

219
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:28.440
to cook a turkey?

220
00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:31.120
That's a that's a bit on the expert side.

221
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:31.519
Yeah.

222
00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:33.000
Yeah, so I don't know how this is going to

223
00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:35.320
turn out, but but we'll dore like turkey and all that.

224
00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:38.519
Kind of stuff. But what about like Christmas morning? Do

225
00:10:38.519 --> 00:10:39.679
you guys exchange gifts?

226
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:40.320
No?

227
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:42.960
Wait, are you serious?

228
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:47.679
I am serious? I mean, okay, listen. I come from

229
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:52.200
an immigrant family. Yeah, so you know, I don't expect

230
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.960
anything from them and vice versa, and so it's like

231
00:10:57.919 --> 00:11:02.120
they work hard and they don't have to show that

232
00:11:02.200 --> 00:11:04.080
to me on Christmas. And I've known that since I

233
00:11:04.120 --> 00:11:07.799
was like and I take care of them throughout the

234
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:11.639
year too, So I feel like when I was younger,

235
00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:16.600
we didn't have the time to really focus on Christmas

236
00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:20.240
because my parents were working vigorously to you know, help

237
00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:24.480
maintain me and themselves. So the holidays didn't really have

238
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:26.720
an impact on me because they were just like every

239
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:30.360
other day, and I honestly wasn't sad about it as

240
00:11:30.360 --> 00:11:33.480
a kid because I don't know, I saw how hard

241
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:34.879
my mom and I were working, and I was very

242
00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:38.519
grateful for it, but I just, I honestly was not.

243
00:11:38.600 --> 00:11:40.200
I didn't take it any type of way as a child,

244
00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:43.600
and I still don't to this day. And you know,

245
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:45.679
I'm glad that my parents didn't do it, actually, because

246
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.639
then they would have been really stressed. But as I

247
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:50.639
got older, it became that they were like, you're not

248
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:52.799
a kid anymore, so we're not even going to try anything.

249
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:54.360
And I was like, Okay, I get it, Like I'm

250
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:57.759
not upset about it, but I don't have anything like

251
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:01.639
that I do with them. And I'm also only child,

252
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:05.799
so it's like, I don't it sounds sad, but I

253
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:06.720
swear I'm fine.

254
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:09.480
Well, I mean, I think the other thing is because

255
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:10.519
were your parents.

256
00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:11.519
Are you first generation?

257
00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:17.000
Yeah, so your parents literally were working and or working,

258
00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:21.080
you know, but especially with you as a baby, Amanda working.

259
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:27.480
Their essentially gift to you was survival at being in

260
00:12:27.519 --> 00:12:29.879
a you know, a stable home and all that stuff,

261
00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:33.759
because that's what they had to do just to establish

262
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:35.919
themselves here. So you had a good place to live,

263
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:38.919
a roof over your head all that stuff, So that really.

264
00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:40.919
Is the gift, yeah, you know what I mean, their

265
00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:41.519
gift to you.

266
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:43.679
So and I also feel like that's the reason why

267
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:47.440
I'm not like so nostalgic over Christmas, because I just

268
00:12:47.440 --> 00:12:50.039
think that I've experienced it a little differently than you

269
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:52.399
know a lot of the people that I know. And

270
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:55.320
I think that that's why I don't take to heart,

271
00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:57.360
you know, when I say I don't like Christmas or

272
00:12:57.399 --> 00:13:00.320
I'm not a Christmas person. And of course I feel

273
00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:02.960
a little bit weird because everyone is a writer or

274
00:13:02.960 --> 00:13:06.159
die for Christmas, it seems like, but I just think

275
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:08.600
of it as another holiday. But that's because of my

276
00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:12.240
life experiences and how I was raised. So I respect

277
00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:14.320
what other people you know, say and how they feel

278
00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:17.080
because I know kids who or I know people who

279
00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:19.159
were kids and Christmas was the biggest thing for them

280
00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:20.720
and it was a time where friend they got together

281
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:22.399
and they cherished that because they didn't see them. So

282
00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:24.480
it's like I shout out to you, like I love

283
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:26.320
you for I love that for you, you know. But

284
00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:28.919
as for me and my household, we ain't do none

285
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:32.600
of that. But it's not like it was fine though,

286
00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.519
Like that's what worked, Like my parents instead took me

287
00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:36.919
to like Disney, you know, for like a year, they'll

288
00:13:36.919 --> 00:13:39.840
took me to like Universal, So it's like yeah. So

289
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:43.360
it's like they worked hard and they like gave me

290
00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.600
presents throughout the year that were like big ones. Yeah,

291
00:13:47.039 --> 00:13:49.639
and it's like by the time Christmas came, I was like,

292
00:13:49.679 --> 00:13:52.960
as a child, I was satisfied, you know, I was like, Okay,

293
00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:54.840
I don't got all presents. That's fine. I'm in Florida

294
00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.720
right now, you know what I mean. But so yeah,

295
00:13:57.720 --> 00:14:00.399
I think that's I don't have any traditions. I don't

296
00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:02.639
have anything, but I don't feel like I need them.

297
00:14:02.840 --> 00:14:05.759
Yeah. Well I also feel like soul now because I'm like, what,

298
00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:07.000
you don't do anything.

299
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.120
I get it came over from you know, to America,

300
00:14:13.639 --> 00:14:16.200
and basically their Christmas present was my survival.

301
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:20.120
Thank you, Kyle. I'm such a no like.

302
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:22.480
I get it, though, Like I do not think it's

303
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:25.919
a heart. I really don't. Like I understand everyone's life

304
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:30.039
is different, like their experiences, so it's like I would

305
00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:32.360
feel trash talking about Christmas to like, you know, one

306
00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:34.360
of those less fortunate kids that isn't like a third

307
00:14:34.399 --> 00:14:37.440
world country, right you know. So it's like I'm very grateful,

308
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:41.919
you know that I get to experience just this, you know,

309
00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:45.360
this peaceful you know, world that we live in are

310
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:47.039
not really peaceful, but like you know what I mean

311
00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:49.799
compared to what the world is going through some parts,

312
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:55.840
but I just feel like I'm fine and I'm surviving. Yeah,

313
00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:56.480
and I'm here.

314
00:14:56.840 --> 00:14:59.519
Well, you are welcome to come over on Christmas if

315
00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:02.240
you wants. We'll have plenty of white people food for

316
00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:04.399
you and bring your own sauce.

317
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:07.600
Bye not the sun.

318
00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:11.799
And I mean that you absolutely are.

319
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:13.759
And if you want to bring your cousin slash sister,

320
00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:15.159
you guys are more than welcome.

321
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:16.879
Oh my god, thank you of.

322
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:19.919
Course, because that's what Christmas is about for me, you know,

323
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:23.720
my mom and dad, but especially my mom and my

324
00:15:23.759 --> 00:15:24.360
whole family.

325
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:26.720
Christmas is always a production. And I don't mean that

326
00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:27.480
in a bad way.

327
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:30.240
I mean, like, so I would wake up and we

328
00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:32.679
would do presents, and my mom always overdid it.

329
00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:34.559
Just because that's how she was.

330
00:15:35.480 --> 00:15:39.919
We would open presents and then she would make like

331
00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:43.960
a Christmas like breakfast, and then my Aunt Kathy and

332
00:15:44.080 --> 00:15:47.600
like whoever would come over for like Christmas breakfast and

333
00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:51.039
we would all do presents. Then you know, everybody would

334
00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:54.200
go back home, and then my mom would have Christmas

335
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:57.600
dinner where everybody came in over cool. So yeah, so

336
00:15:57.600 --> 00:16:01.600
it was like really cool tradition and and it's something

337
00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:04.120
that I love. And now that my mom passed, I'm

338
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:05.840
holding Christmas dinner.

339
00:16:05.559 --> 00:16:06.279
At my house.

340
00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:12.159
And so my house, our house was always filled with everybody, neighbors, friends,

341
00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:12.919
blah blah blah.

342
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:14.879
It was like, Oh, you don't have a place to go,

343
00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:16.320
You're coming to our house, you know what I mean?

344
00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:17.559
Like a community centers.

345
00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:20.360
Yeah, exactly, And that's how I want my house to be.

346
00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:25.440
You know, somebody I invited a relative and they were like, oh,

347
00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:28.840
well I might go to my aunts or whatever because

348
00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:31.200
she doesn't have anywhere to go. I'm like, then bring

349
00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:33.000
your aunt to my house.

350
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:36.200
Like what you know what I mean? Yeah, Like, no,

351
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:38.759
there's never for me at my house.

352
00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:42.399
There's always a seat at the table, not literally because

353
00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:45.480
the table only seats for but there's a seat. There's

354
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:49.080
a seat in my house for you. Yeah. And food,

355
00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:51.000
Like I would rather have way too much food and

356
00:16:51.039 --> 00:16:55.159
everybody takes some home then not enough. So that is

357
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:59.559
what ultimately I learned from my mom and my grandmother,

358
00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:02.879
My mom and my grandma, and and you know, my family.

359
00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:06.039
My entire family has always been like that. So that's

360
00:17:06.079 --> 00:17:09.279
what Christmas especially means to me. It's like, not just

361
00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:13.240
like I love giving gifts, but I also love sharing.

362
00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:14.880
Time with people I love, you know what I mean.

363
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:18.279
Yeah? So anyway, well now I feel like why because

364
00:17:18.279 --> 00:17:20.880
I'm Chris, was in your life, but it reminds me

365
00:17:20.960 --> 00:17:22.880
of my family, and I'm like, well.

366
00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:26.680
No, The thing is it is. What we're both showing

367
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:29.359
is that it is individual. Yeah, you know what I mean.

368
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:32.440
It is based on These are based on my experiences

369
00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:35.319
growing up in my worldview. Yours are based on your

370
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:36.920
experiences and your worldview.

371
00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:39.880
That's why you know we have.

372
00:17:39.799 --> 00:17:43.000
Two different views on it because we came from two

373
00:17:43.039 --> 00:17:46.279
different backgrounds on it. Yeah, and that's cool though, I mean,

374
00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:49.680
you know sos different.

375
00:17:49.680 --> 00:17:51.079
Thank you? That was the word I was looking for.

376
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:57.559
Why Why?

377
00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:08.119
So all right, so we have to explain to you guys.

378
00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:11.319
We have to explain to you listening that we got

379
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:12.960
called for a lunch.

380
00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:18.319
Here at the station.

381
00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:25.640
So we went to lunch and explained this. We went

382
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:27.359
to lunch and it was a client lunch and we

383
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:30.279
love St Anne's Grill. Shout out to St Anne's Grill

384
00:18:30.359 --> 00:18:32.680

385
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:35.319
And they have a very special drink venu.

386
00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:39.039
Oh yes they do. It's very special. Indeed.

387
00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:43.920
I got the sugar cookie Margarita.

388
00:18:44.319 --> 00:18:48.839
You got the cremberlet cremble Martini Martini.

389
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:52.200
That's w I met Martini, Yes, Martini.

390
00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:54.359
Something about that Martini Martini.

391
00:18:54.799 --> 00:19:00.519
I don't know why I'm writing with that. I just

392
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:01.079
wrote it in my.

393
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:21.119
TV. I mean exceptional, mine had it did. I was jealous.

394
00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:23.680
I was jealous over that I got mine, and I

395
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:27.279
was like, where's my freaking fancy stuff. Just put some

396
00:19:27.720 --> 00:19:30.000
grated sugar on and I was like, oh no, I

397
00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:33.039
wanted designed, but I didn't want to be that Karen.

398
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:37.720
But I was kind of disappointed. It was still so

399
00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:38.880
freaking delicious though.

400
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:40.000
Did it taste like cumberlet?

401
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:44.000
Oh yeah, it tasted so good, so good. I was like, yeah,

402
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:50.519
I won the sugar so bad. But I knew. I

403
00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:55.759
knew he had a dubacco drafter and I was like,

404
00:19:55.799 --> 00:20:17.799
I'm not gonna do that. I'm glad. Okay, oh boy, okay, okay, okay.

405
00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:21.680
So suffice to say we may sound different than.

406
00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:26.039
We did before you don't comment on it. We know,

407
00:20:28.000 --> 00:20:30.880
you know, we know, Okay.

408
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:32.480
We just wanted to get the elephant out of the

409
00:20:32.559 --> 00:20:33.640
room or whatever.

410
00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:38.720
Because we are.

411
00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:46.640
How are they all quiet and like normal the last

412
00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:47.920
segment and now they.

413
00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:51.920
Crashed out so bad. At my table, I was so quiet,

414
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:55.720
like locking in. I was like, oh my god, I

415
00:20:55.839 --> 00:20:56.880
feel it. Well.

416
00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:00.279
What's funny is like I was trying to like sip

417
00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:03.319
throughout the meal, so I was like pacing myself. But

418
00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:06.640
then at the end, like there was so much left

419
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:08.880
in my cop that I had to drink it all

420
00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:11.480
really quick. And that was the wrong decision too.

421
00:21:12.160 --> 00:21:14.880
So No, I chowed that thing down like with a

422
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:18.400
five minutes, and I thought like, if I drink it

423
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:20.160
fast enough, it will wear off by time I go

424
00:21:20.200 --> 00:21:24.880
back to the studio. No, that thing, I don't even

425
00:21:24.880 --> 00:21:25.799
know what it was there.

426
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:29.160
It was very strong, good, very very strong.

427
00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:33.559
I was like Jesus Christ, speaking of.

428
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:42.400
Jesus Christ, this is the Christmas episode. Thank you for

429
00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:43.720
that lovely introduction.

430
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:52.319
Oh my god, oh my god, my stomach's gonna be

431
00:21:52.359 --> 00:21:55.960
like yo, yeah, don't come back, don't come.

432
00:21:55.799 --> 00:21:58.799
Back here or come back every day one or the other.

433
00:21:58.880 --> 00:22:01.759
Oh yeah, maybe we should do Pop Culture weekly drunk

434
00:22:01.799 --> 00:22:02.359
every week.

435
00:22:03.240 --> 00:22:04.079
I'm not opposed to that.

436
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:04.960
It's like more fun.

437
00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:12.759
We should get an uber next time we did, Yes,

438
00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:19.480
we did. That's how drunk I am. Remember the uber.

439
00:22:19.839 --> 00:22:22.160
Oh my god, shout out the whole day. Thank you

440
00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:23.480
Hodany for driving us.

00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:32.400

All right? Should we take a break for a second?

449
00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:07.680
I think so.

450
00:23:07.839 --> 00:23:14.000
Okay, let's take a break. Okay. So we've taken a

451
00:23:14.039 --> 00:23:19.079
little break and just to give.

452
00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:24.000
Ourselves more time to cool down. Yes, and you've got

453
00:23:24.039 --> 00:23:29.480
some water. I got some coke cherry zero. You have

454
00:23:29.519 --> 00:23:39.279
four cups. I don't know why, but that's okay.

455
00:23:39.480 --> 00:23:40.680
It's perfectly fun.

456
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:42.799
Okay, okay.

457
00:23:43.039 --> 00:23:51.200

461
00:24:05.119 --> 00:24:11.400
Favorite Chris, our favorite Christmas movies?

00:24:11.519 --> 00:24:23.960
Yes, okay, all right, I'm fine, okay, okay. So Christmas

00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:33.519
movies come every year, just like Santa. Yes, they do,

464
00:24:34.319 --> 00:24:45.480
and some of them are beloveds classics. I'm so sorry

465
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:48.960
for you to listen to this. We did not mean

466
00:24:49.039 --> 00:24:53.240
to drink crimberlet and sugar cookie martinis at the work

467
00:24:53.319 --> 00:24:58.200
lunch and then have to work. I thought, you know,

468
00:24:58.519 --> 00:25:01.119
you could have an adult during cannot be trash, but

469
00:25:01.160 --> 00:25:06.359
clearly we're lightly Yeah in any event, So.

470
00:25:11.799 --> 00:25:15.839
What is your favorite Christmas movie?

471
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:17.920
Yes, let's start with your one of them.

472
00:25:19.160 --> 00:25:21.160
I'm gonna say the classic Home Alone.

473
00:25:21.279 --> 00:25:23.960
Home Alone is such a classic Christmas movie.

474
00:25:23.960 --> 00:25:26.599
I feel like that's everyone's favorite Christmas movie, as it

475
00:25:26.680 --> 00:25:29.279
should be because it's one of the best.

476
00:25:29.680 --> 00:25:30.880
How about Home Alone too?

477
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:33.000
I love that one equally just as much.

478
00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:35.720
Yeah, me too, And that's rare for a sequel to like.

479
00:25:35.799 --> 00:25:36.640
Extremely rare.

480
00:25:36.759 --> 00:25:37.799
Yeah, And I love.

481
00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:39.839
That it's in New York, and I feel almost that

482
00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:41.680
one's even more Christmasy.

483
00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:42.960
Than Honestly Alone, I love New York.

484
00:25:43.079 --> 00:25:46.519
Yeah, so it's like, yeah, I love that.

485
00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:49.920
So I grew up with Home Alone, same, and I

486
00:25:50.039 --> 00:25:52.559
used to watch it all the time, not even during

487
00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:55.200
Christmas time sometimes, like it's just a movie that I

488
00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:57.880
feel like, yes, it's geared to Christmas, but you can

489
00:25:57.920 --> 00:25:59.720
watch it whenever you want. It's a funny movie.

490
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:00.279
Yeah.

491
00:26:00.440 --> 00:26:06.519
I love Marv and Harry. Yes, they're so funny, and

492
00:26:08.079 --> 00:26:11.799
I just think that watching them as an adult, like now,

493
00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:16.319
it's just even funnier because you're, like, dude, especially the

494
00:26:16.359 --> 00:26:19.200
second one where they just got a what prison, Yeah,

495
00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:23.640
and it's like they're just still doing the most bizarre

496
00:26:23.839 --> 00:26:26.960
stuff and it's just, oh, I don't even know. I

497
00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:31.200
just love Home Alone. I love the whole entire storyline,

498
00:26:31.319 --> 00:26:32.960
and it's just so funny to me.

499
00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:36.160
Yeah, it's interesting they never made a third because like

500
00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:39.759
the second one was equally successful, so like why not

501
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:42.000
make a third? I mean, now, now it'd have to

502
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:44.559
be like it'd be interesting to have him as like

503
00:26:44.599 --> 00:26:46.880
a forty five year old or however old he is now,

504
00:26:47.359 --> 00:26:51.160
like being home alone and Marv and Harry come back

505
00:26:51.240 --> 00:26:52.119
or like find him.

506
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:55.039
What, Like are they like in nursing homes by the.

507
00:26:57.640 --> 00:26:59.599
Just because they're like in their seventies or something.

508
00:27:00.440 --> 00:27:03.200
Could you imagine a seven year old like Burker?

509
00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:04.519
Why not?

510
00:27:05.599 --> 00:27:07.640
I mean they're gonna bring a hip gig into the window.

511
00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:11.880
I mean, did you see how much damage they went through?51200:27:12.240 --> 00:27:15.319



And the first and second one that's true. Once the51300:27:15.000 --> 00:27:19.920



fir had been gone one fault, the credits come in.51400:27:22.799 --> 00:27:23.799



Maybe it's their sons.51500:27:24.720 --> 00:27:27.720



Well that now we're talking. Now we're talking their Wait,51600:27:27.759 --> 00:27:30.720



it could be Kevin's son, and Kevin leaves his son51700:27:30.759 --> 00:27:32.000



home alone by accident.51800:27:32.759 --> 00:27:36.000



True, but I feel like Kevin has so much trauma51900:27:36.799 --> 00:27:38.680



from being left twice by his own.52000:27:38.480 --> 00:27:40.759



Parents, and he'll do like a Lori strode.52100:27:44.599 --> 00:27:50.279



Michael, So he's gonna murder the family.52200:27:51.799 --> 00:27:57.079



Talk about you know how Laurie was prepared for Michael52300:27:57.599 --> 00:28:00.519



and Halloween twenty eighteen, Yes, and how she was like52400:28:00.519 --> 00:28:04.359



this assassin type lady like Kevin could be that.52500:28:04.480 --> 00:28:07.400



Oh that's true, right, Yeah, he could be training the52600:28:07.480 --> 00:28:08.720



last like twenty years.52700:28:08.880 --> 00:28:17.559



Yes, and they show up in their like dementia. They're52800:28:17.599 --> 00:28:21.799



only seventy Jesus, isn't that when that kind of stuff starts.52900:28:21.839 --> 00:28:24.680



I don't know, but I feel like that's like Shaer53000:28:24.680 --> 00:28:26.799



and Dolly partner, like in their seventies, they still go53100:28:26.839 --> 00:28:27.720



on tour and stuff.53200:28:28.559 --> 00:28:31.279



That's true, but I don't know, but I'm talking about53300:28:31.319 --> 00:28:35.039



regular people, normal people.53400:28:35.000 --> 00:28:38.640



Right, Yes, I don't know, but anyway, yes, I think53500:28:38.680 --> 00:28:42.799



that'll be a cool plot. So Home Alone makers, you know,53600:28:43.039 --> 00:28:45.640



you can have that for free. I think one of mine.53700:28:45.680 --> 00:28:48.079



Actually Home Alone and Home Alone two were on my list,53800:28:48.440 --> 00:28:52.400



but one of mine would be The Santa Claus with53900:28:52.839 --> 00:28:56.039



Tim Hallan Allen, I mean Alan Tim Allen. That is54000:28:56.079 --> 00:28:58.559



such a classic movie. It's like one that I grew54100:28:58.599 --> 00:29:04.440



up with. It's fun, it's like heartwarming, it's Christmas Eve,54200:29:04.720 --> 00:29:07.240



It's just like all the Christmas things. And that's one54300:29:07.279 --> 00:29:08.519



that I try to watch every year.54400:29:08.720 --> 00:29:10.039



Yeah, I do like that one.54500:29:10.839 --> 00:29:11.759



There's are your thoughts?54600:29:12.920 --> 00:29:16.039



That's it. I'm trying. Well, I never watched it.54700:29:16.559 --> 00:29:17.559



Oh you seen it?54800:29:17.640 --> 00:29:18.680



No, I never watched it.54900:29:19.720 --> 00:29:20.680



Why didn't you say that?55000:29:20.799 --> 00:29:24.000



Okay, Like I've never watched the movie. But it's that55100:29:24.079 --> 00:29:26.319



thing where it's like I know the whole plot. Yeah,55200:29:26.359 --> 00:29:29.240



I've seen so many scenes from it. Yeah that it's like,55300:29:29.319 --> 00:29:31.359



even though I've never sat there and watched it front55400:29:31.359 --> 00:29:34.119



to back, I know basically everything that happens.55500:29:34.240 --> 00:29:34.759



Yeah.55600:29:34.799 --> 00:29:37.960



So it's like I do like it, but I feel55700:29:37.960 --> 00:29:40.640



like since I haven't watched it, I don't count to55800:29:40.759 --> 00:29:44.319



like voice my opinion. Watched it, but I like the55900:29:44.359 --> 00:29:45.559



one with Jack Frost in it.56000:29:45.960 --> 00:29:47.640



Oh, I think that's part three.56100:29:47.759 --> 00:29:50.240



I love that one. Now that's one that I did watch.56200:29:50.359 --> 00:29:53.759



You've yeah, I don't think i've seen like the first one, okay,56300:29:54.079 --> 00:29:56.720



but I love the Jack Frost one where he's in56400:29:56.799 --> 00:30:01.039



it because I used to be you know, never mind56500:30:03.079 --> 00:30:07.319



nothing nothing nothing, nothing, nothing nothing. I don't even know56600:30:07.880 --> 00:30:10.759



that nothing nothing.56700:30:10.960 --> 00:30:12.440



I used to be Jack Frown.56800:30:12.519 --> 00:30:12.559



No.56900:30:15.640 --> 00:30:16.960



Oh, just really quick.57000:30:17.160 --> 00:30:21.720



There's a series called Santa Claus that continues the story57100:30:21.759 --> 00:30:23.400



on Disney Plus. I haven't watched it yet, but I57200:30:23.440 --> 00:30:25.960



figured I would before Christmas is here.57300:30:26.039 --> 00:30:27.119



Okay, we're running.57400:30:26.839 --> 00:30:29.519



Out of time, Okay, already, Yeah.57500:30:30.880 --> 00:30:31.559



Just sneaks up.57600:30:31.799 --> 00:30:38.880



Yeah. My other Christmas movie that I like is Jingle57700:30:38.920 --> 00:30:42.799



All the Way. Oh my god, I watched it last night.57800:30:42.880 --> 00:30:44.839



So I watched it two nights ago. Yeah, it was57900:30:44.839 --> 00:30:45.359



on Pluto.58000:30:45.599 --> 00:30:47.960



I love that movie. I actually found out that that's58100:30:48.000 --> 00:30:52.480



my dad's favorite movie, and I was like, this is58200:30:52.519 --> 00:30:53.960



your favorite movie, net and he was like, yeah, I58300:30:54.000 --> 00:30:55.559



love that movie. I watched that movie all the time.58400:30:55.559 --> 00:30:58.319



And I'm like, I've never seen you watch it. I58500:30:58.359 --> 00:30:59.839



know he watches it, but like I don't see him58600:30:59.839 --> 00:31:02.559



watch shit frequently. I was kind of shocked, and so58700:31:02.640 --> 00:31:04.839



I watched it and my sister watched it for the58800:31:04.839 --> 00:31:06.799



first time with me last night, because my dad has58900:31:06.799 --> 00:31:08.559



this thing where he just puts on movies on the59000:31:08.599 --> 00:31:11.400



TV and just walks up the living room. I don't know,59100:31:11.519 --> 00:31:14.000



I don't know why he just does. And me and59200:31:14.000 --> 00:31:16.200



my sister were downstairs and it was on, and she59300:31:16.279 --> 00:31:18.319



was like, I've never seen this movie before. And I said,59400:31:18.319 --> 00:31:20.920



you've never seen Jingle all the way and she was59500:31:20.960 --> 00:31:23.519



like no, and I said, Okay, we gotta we gotta59600:31:23.519 --> 00:31:26.519



lock in right now. Yeah, And we studied at the59700:31:26.559 --> 00:31:31.000



part where the Turmoman door had just sold out, so59800:31:31.039 --> 00:31:32.599



it was like the beginning of the movie. So I59900:31:32.680 --> 00:31:34.160



told her a quick backstory and now I was like,60000:31:34.160 --> 00:31:36.640



I'm not rewinding, like you want to watch it, you know.60100:31:37.400 --> 00:31:40.119



And I just freaking love that movie. And I'm watching60200:31:40.119 --> 00:31:41.680



this and like it's so nostalgic for me because i60300:31:41.680 --> 00:31:44.200



grew up watching that movie as well. But now that60400:31:44.279 --> 00:31:48.000



I'm an adult, yes, movie is like freaking lit.60500:31:48.200 --> 00:31:50.480



Now. What was cool was on Pluto TV, which you60600:31:50.519 --> 00:31:51.000



know is free.60700:31:51.039 --> 00:31:54.079



I love Pluto, just like watching like the old tv60800:31:54.400 --> 00:31:56.440



ye like back in the day, because it's just like60900:31:56.480 --> 00:32:00.160



plays things you don't choose. So after that, Jin All61000:32:00.200 --> 00:32:02.680



the Way two came on. Oh really, Yeah, have you61100:32:02.680 --> 00:32:03.240



ever seen that?61200:32:03.480 --> 00:32:06.160



No, it stars Larry the Cable Guy.61300:32:06.480 --> 00:32:07.799



Okay, you know who he is. Yeah.61400:32:07.839 --> 00:32:10.480



That was a that came out in twenty fourteen. It61500:32:10.559 --> 00:32:14.599



was direct to video at the time, and it is61600:32:14.759 --> 00:32:17.400



really just like a sequel name only it doesn't star61700:32:17.759 --> 00:32:22.599



Arnold Schwarzenegger or anything. But the plot is Larry is61800:32:22.640 --> 00:32:28.599



a truck driver and he's basically competing with his ex61900:32:28.640 --> 00:32:32.440



wife's new husband to be like the best dad, which62000:32:32.440 --> 00:32:34.720



one is the best dad for Christmas? So he's trying62100:32:34.759 --> 00:32:40.039



to get his daughter this toy Harrison Bear that she62200:32:40.240 --> 00:32:44.319



really wants, Okay, and then it's really hard to get62300:32:44.400 --> 00:32:47.559



and they keep disappearing, like from stores and stuff. It's62400:32:47.720 --> 00:32:51.000



really funny. Yeah, and way better than I thought it62500:32:51.000 --> 00:32:51.359



would be.62600:32:51.839 --> 00:32:58.319



Yeah, when I watched it yesterday, No, you're fine. Oh62700:32:58.400 --> 00:33:01.799



my god, he's just so freaking hilarious. I'm just thinking62800:33:01.799 --> 00:33:02.880



about it.62900:33:02.960 --> 00:33:04.160



Oh, there was nothing you were gonna say.63000:33:04.440 --> 00:33:10.640



Oh, I mean I did like the part. Probably one63100:33:10.640 --> 00:33:12.400



of my favorite parts of the whole movie is like63200:33:12.440 --> 00:33:14.160



when they call in the radio to get the trible63300:33:14.200 --> 00:33:16.519



man dole, and I feel like I work in radio,63400:33:16.960 --> 00:33:20.079



so it's interesting. It was interesting to see that and63500:33:20.119 --> 00:33:22.519



how he called and how when he went into the63600:33:22.599 --> 00:33:26.200



actual studio, like he like busted the door down, and63700:33:26.240 --> 00:33:29.079



I just started laughing so hard because I was imagining63800:33:29.160 --> 00:33:33.000



myself as the radio person because we work in that industry.63900:33:33.559 --> 00:33:35.000



And I was like, I don't even know what I64000:33:35.000 --> 00:33:39.799



would do for a call or just busted down the64100:33:39.839 --> 00:33:42.000



glass and I was saying for a thrill man doll,64200:33:42.920 --> 00:33:45.960



and it was just so interesting to see and then64300:33:46.000 --> 00:33:48.559



it was just so freaking hilarious, cracking up. I had64400:33:48.599 --> 00:33:50.720



tears in my eyes, and my sister's just watching this64500:33:50.799 --> 00:33:52.880



for the first time, like do you watch? What do64600:33:52.880 --> 00:33:55.400



you make me watch? And I'm just like, this is comedy, Yeah,64700:33:55.599 --> 00:33:58.720



this is this is film, Like you know, I was64800:33:58.839 --> 00:33:59.799



very passionate.64900:33:59.440 --> 00:34:01.200



About it, very passionate about it.65000:34:01.240 --> 00:34:04.920



But yeah, I just love that movie so much, you know,65100:34:05.039 --> 00:34:07.839



and it just it's one of the rare movies that65200:34:08.039 --> 00:34:12.760



I feel like makes me nostalgic, okay, you know, because65300:34:12.760 --> 00:34:15.119



I don't really have many movies where I'm like nostalgia,65400:34:15.280 --> 00:34:18.320



Like no, right, no, no, but that's one of the few,65500:34:18.800 --> 00:34:27.079



so I'm just like, it's so nice.65600:34:30.280 --> 00:34:30.599



All right.65700:34:30.840 --> 00:34:33.960



So one for me is the Grinch, not like the65800:34:34.000 --> 00:34:37.360



one from like the sixties or whatever, the recent one65900:34:37.519 --> 00:34:40.000



like with Jim No no, no, not that one either,66000:34:40.159 --> 00:34:42.440



like the cartoon that came.66100:34:42.239 --> 00:34:44.760



Out the animated Grinch, yes.66200:34:44.599 --> 00:34:48.840



In twenty eighteen from Universal and Illumination.66300:34:49.480 --> 00:34:51.239



Oh he looks like the Lorax character.66400:34:51.440 --> 00:34:55.719



Yes, yeah, yeah, I love that version so much.66500:34:56.000 --> 00:34:57.920



It's like really funny.66600:34:57.920 --> 00:35:03.800



Parrell Pharrell was in it, and Benedict cumber Patch, Rashida Jones,66700:35:03.880 --> 00:35:06.360



Keenan Thompson, Angela Lansbar.66800:35:06.119 --> 00:35:06.880



It's big names.66900:35:07.000 --> 00:35:10.519



Yeah, Danny Elfman did the music, which I love him.67000:35:10.679 --> 00:35:13.559



But I love that version so much. I don't know why.67100:35:13.639 --> 00:35:17.239



I think because it goes into more like developing the67200:35:17.360 --> 00:35:20.320



character like more than the other ones. Because the book67300:35:20.360 --> 00:35:23.719



is what like twelve pages, and then like the special67400:35:24.000 --> 00:35:26.920



like from like the original animated one from like the67500:35:27.039 --> 00:35:30.199



fifties or whatever, is like eighteen minutes or something.67600:35:30.360 --> 00:35:30.760



Geez.67700:35:30.840 --> 00:35:33.960



Yeah, it's like super short. And then the Grinch who67800:35:34.000 --> 00:35:37.000



Stole Christmas with Jim Carrey. Yeah, and then this one,67900:35:37.079 --> 00:35:39.039



like I don't know, I just really love this one68000:35:39.039 --> 00:35:39.320



a lot.68100:35:39.440 --> 00:35:42.000



Yeah, it's your movie, it's your thing. Yeah, there's nothing68200:35:42.039 --> 00:35:42.480



wrong with that.68300:35:42.599 --> 00:35:44.159



Have you seen that one?68400:35:44.440 --> 00:35:47.840



No, but you know what I'm not. You know, I'm68500:35:47.840 --> 00:35:48.480



not opposed.68600:35:48.599 --> 00:35:50.519



Okay, you should. You should add that to your list.68700:35:50.679 --> 00:35:53.079



I have to add the original to my list. I've68800:35:53.079 --> 00:35:54.360



never seen any Grinch movie.68900:35:54.599 --> 00:35:57.639



None of the Grinch movies. No, oh my god. Okay, yes,69000:35:57.760 --> 00:35:59.679



you have to add them all. You should go in69100:35:59.760 --> 00:36:02.000



order they were made too, that'll be interesting.69200:36:02.079 --> 00:36:06.360



Yeah, the original animated one, then the Jim Carry one,69300:36:06.400 --> 00:36:06.920



and then.69400:36:06.800 --> 00:36:07.679



The new one.69500:36:07.719 --> 00:36:09.760



Because every time I think about the Grinch, I mean,69600:36:09.960 --> 00:36:13.199



everyone's mind goes to the Jim Carry one. Yeah, because69700:36:13.239 --> 00:36:15.480



you know, I've It's a movie I haven't sat down69800:36:15.519 --> 00:36:18.800



and seen, but I've seen so many scenes from it. Yeah,69900:36:18.840 --> 00:36:21.199



and I like, you know, I know the storyline.70000:36:21.400 --> 00:36:21.840



Yeah.70100:36:21.880 --> 00:36:24.320



For that one, I just felt like it was just70200:36:24.360 --> 00:36:26.119



with the costume and all. I don't know, I just70300:36:26.119 --> 00:36:28.159



felt it was kind of corny. I mean, I love70400:36:28.239 --> 00:36:30.519



Jim Carrey, but it was just a little bit cringey.70500:36:30.800 --> 00:36:31.559



Yeah, for that one.70600:36:31.599 --> 00:36:33.840



It's kind of funny though all the memes I see.70700:36:33.800 --> 00:36:36.280



Yeah, yeah, I mean it's fun for memes, but like70800:36:36.400 --> 00:36:39.360



I don't know, but my favorite is this the twenty70900:36:39.400 --> 00:36:40.159



eighteen version.71000:36:40.280 --> 00:36:42.280



Yeah, but what's your next one?71100:36:42.760 --> 00:36:45.519



My next one? It's not one of my favorites, but71200:36:45.559 --> 00:36:48.239



it's the most recent Christmas movie that I saw.71300:36:48.639 --> 00:36:50.639



What this is supposed to be a list of your71400:36:50.639 --> 00:36:51.559

It was so freaking good.71800:36:59.239 --> 00:36:59.880



Yeah.71900:37:00.119 --> 00:37:02.000



I did not expect to like it as much as72000:37:02.039 --> 00:37:05.239



I did. Number one. I walked out of a theater72100:37:05.360 --> 00:37:07.599



and I thought, why in the world was everyone so72200:37:07.800 --> 00:37:12.519



freaking buff? Yeah, like everyone Santa Claus buff. Yeah, his72300:37:12.559 --> 00:37:16.039

know steroids. Everyone was so freaking buff, And I was like, okay.72600:37:24.599 --> 00:37:28.119



Number one. I did not expect the storytelling to be72700:37:28.199 --> 00:37:29.079



as good as.72800:37:28.960 --> 00:37:30.719



It was, either, did I.72900:37:30.719 --> 00:37:34.199



I thought that it was like such a unique story73000:37:34.920 --> 00:37:37.199



and I just was looking at the movie and thinking73100:37:37.239 --> 00:37:38.960



to myself, this is actually not half bad.73200:37:39.159 --> 00:37:42.119



No, it really was, like I really enjoyed it. My73300:37:42.199 --> 00:37:44.159



friend wanted to see it, and we hadn't hung out73400:37:44.199 --> 00:37:46.639



in a while, and he was like, let's go see73500:37:46.679 --> 00:37:48.159



I think we're gonna see Venom and then it was73600:37:48.159 --> 00:37:49.400



like out of the theater, so it was like, let's73700:37:49.400 --> 00:37:52.039



go see Red One and I was like whatever, I'm73800:37:52.119 --> 00:37:54.119



just going to hang out with him basically, and I73900:37:54.199 --> 00:37:55.559



have Regal unlimited.74000:37:55.199 --> 00:37:57.199



So that's literally. I was like, I'm not even excited74100:37:57.199 --> 00:37:58.719



for this movie. I'm just gonna watch this to watch it.74200:37:58.760 --> 00:38:01.039



And I walked out like, yeah, it's so good.74300:38:01.239 --> 00:38:03.840



Yeah, yes, I loved it. It is one, you know,74400:38:03.920 --> 00:38:05.800



and it is one that I would revisit again.74500:38:06.239 --> 00:38:08.239



I do like that one, and I feel as though74600:38:08.239 --> 00:38:10.039



a lot of people didn't like it, but I like74700:38:10.199 --> 00:38:12.960



all the movies that people hate. So I walked out74800:38:12.960 --> 00:38:14.400



of the theater and I was like, I know the74900:38:14.480 --> 00:38:16.039



general public gonna hate this one.75000:38:16.039 --> 00:38:19.480



Yeah, And I was right, you know, I like critically panned.75100:38:19.679 --> 00:38:21.880



Yeah, And I was like, that's how I know I75200:38:22.039 --> 00:38:22.239



like it.75300:38:22.440 --> 00:38:24.880



Yeah, yeah, all right.75400:38:24.960 --> 00:38:30.199



So my next one is another classic a Christmas story.75500:38:30.559 --> 00:38:32.000



You've seen this one is that the.75600:38:32.079 --> 00:38:35.920



Guy, like the old guy that has like the dress75700:38:36.840 --> 00:38:41.480



what and the hat with the little thing. I have75800:38:41.679 --> 00:38:44.400



no idea what you're talking about he has a little hat.75900:38:45.119 --> 00:38:47.159



He has like a lit little lamp thing that he76000:38:47.320 --> 00:38:52.880



like goes out. He's old. Oh he gets out of bed.76100:38:53.280 --> 00:38:55.199



You're talking about a Christmas carol?76200:38:55.480 --> 00:38:56.199



Is that what you just said?76300:38:56.360 --> 00:39:00.000



No, Christmas story? Christmas story. I thought you're talking about76400:39:00.119 --> 00:39:03.320



the leg lamp. Oh no, the lamp that's shaped like76500:39:03.360 --> 00:39:04.079



a woman's leg.76600:39:04.599 --> 00:39:09.079



No, sorry, no, you're fine.76700:39:09.159 --> 00:39:12.639



So Christmas Stories from nineteen eighty three is based on76800:39:12.719 --> 00:39:15.360



a book actually called and God We Trust All Others76900:39:15.440 --> 00:39:20.679



Pay Cash by Jeane Shepherd and it stars Melinda Dylon,77000:39:20.840 --> 00:39:25.280



Darren McGavin, Peter Billingsley, And it's from MGM.77100:39:26.079 --> 00:39:30.280



It is a Christmas classic. For me, it's the one77200:39:30.320 --> 00:39:30.679



that's like.77300:39:30.760 --> 00:39:33.440



We'll shoot you ray out. I mean, you'll shoot your77400:39:33.519 --> 00:39:33.960



ry out.77500:39:34.199 --> 00:39:35.159



Do you know what I'm talking about?77600:39:35.239 --> 00:39:35.280



No?77700:39:35.480 --> 00:39:40.519



Oh, then it's like Fredziele. Wait, am I combining to movies?77800:39:41.480 --> 00:39:42.599



Am I combining to No?77900:39:42.800 --> 00:39:45.039



No, I don't even know what you're talking about.78000:39:46.559 --> 00:39:47.079



Christmas?78100:39:47.559 --> 00:39:48.079



What is that?78200:39:49.119 --> 00:39:52.039



This is the lamp I thought you were talking about.78300:39:52.840 --> 00:39:55.880



Oh that's weird. What in the world?78400:39:57.239 --> 00:39:57.599



Hold on?78500:39:57.880 --> 00:40:00.400



So that's what it's called the Gloom?78600:40:00.519 --> 00:40:05.199



Yeah, yeah, so it is hysterical, it is old timey,78700:40:05.840 --> 00:40:08.360



so like it takes place in nineteen thirty nine and78800:40:09.400 --> 00:40:15.320



it is hysterically funny and it's like heartwarming, And that78900:40:15.480 --> 00:40:17.159



is one that I watch every single year.79000:40:17.519 --> 00:40:19.880



It's just a classic. Add that to your list too.79100:40:20.119 --> 00:40:23.079



Okay, with the Grinch all everything?79200:40:23.519 --> 00:40:27.719



Okay, what is your next one?79300:40:28.599 --> 00:40:32.000



I'm not sure if this is a Christmas movie, but79400:40:32.119 --> 00:40:35.440



I watch it for during Christmas all the time because79500:40:35.480 --> 00:40:38.320



it's like a winter movie. Is Hands?79600:40:38.800 --> 00:40:40.960



I love everisusor Hands? And I was going back and79700:40:41.079 --> 00:40:43.400



forth on adding that I'm gonna add it for you.79800:40:43.679 --> 00:40:44.599



I love that freaking movie.79900:40:44.639 --> 00:40:47.239



So it's a classic. And it's Tim Burton, who I love.80000:40:47.320 --> 00:40:48.199



I love Tim Burton.80100:40:48.320 --> 00:40:51.519



Yeah, Johnny Depp, I mean when on a rider like80200:40:51.920 --> 00:40:53.440



it is such a classic movie.80300:40:53.920 --> 00:40:56.360



Why do you love it so much?80400:40:56.719 --> 00:40:58.440



I mean it was Johnny Depp when he was young,80500:40:59.519 --> 00:41:07.519



like he was you know okay, and the story is good, I.80600:41:07.559 --> 00:41:13.039



Mean great insight when he was young, and the story's good.80700:41:15.079 --> 00:41:16.280



She was cool too.80800:41:16.639 --> 00:41:18.599



What reminds you of it being Christmas?80900:41:19.400 --> 00:41:24.679



Like the snow when he was like on you know81000:41:24.760 --> 00:41:26.480



how when he would do the ice sculptures and stuff81100:41:26.480 --> 00:41:29.280



like that, and the snow like fall or whatever, And81200:41:30.119 --> 00:41:34.039



wasn't it a Christmas story that her character was telling81300:41:34.119 --> 00:41:36.880



to her grandchildren or it was a story that she81400:41:37.079 --> 00:41:40.920



told them at night around Christmas time. So I think81500:41:41.000 --> 00:41:45.119



that that's why it's like, you know, in my brain,81600:41:45.199 --> 00:41:48.440



it relates to Christmas, because she is telling a story81700:41:48.599 --> 00:41:54.000



around Christmas, you know, to her grandchildren. And so you know,81800:41:54.079 --> 00:41:55.920



when a movie ends and like it goes back to81900:41:56.039 --> 00:41:58.159



like the present time. I don't know, I just really82000:41:58.280 --> 00:42:00.960



loved it that move in that movie when I was82100:42:01.000 --> 00:42:04.079



a kid and all my friends used to be scared82200:42:04.119 --> 00:42:07.280



of really yeah, he was, I don't know. I mean82300:42:07.400 --> 00:42:09.639



I was in elementary school and nobody liked the movie.82400:42:11.519 --> 00:42:13.639



People were just kind of scared in him when I82500:42:13.800 --> 00:42:17.000



was little, and I kind of liked it him, like82600:42:17.199 --> 00:42:18.679



he was kind of cool to me. I was like,82700:42:18.760 --> 00:42:21.280



do got switches for him? It's kind of dope, you know.82800:42:21.880 --> 00:42:25.599



And then I was reading into the storyline, you know,82900:42:25.679 --> 00:42:28.239



as an adult, and I'm not sure if this is83000:42:28.760 --> 00:42:32.280



accurate or not, but I know that Tim Burton, he83100:42:33.239 --> 00:42:37.840



has briefly stated that he's a little autistic and how83200:42:38.719 --> 00:42:42.880



he based the character Edward on someone who is kind83300:42:42.920 --> 00:42:47.440



of on that same spectrum and I rewatched a movie83400:42:47.519 --> 00:42:49.239



with that in mind, and yes, you can kind of83500:42:49.280 --> 00:42:51.960



tell because he doesn't talk that much. He's kind of like,83600:42:52.079 --> 00:42:54.559



you know, not nonverbal in the beginning a little bit83700:42:54.679 --> 00:42:57.679



or just barely speaking words. And it's kind of like83800:42:57.760 --> 00:43:02.239



a movie about how society views people who are different83900:43:02.280 --> 00:43:04.960



in that way. And as an adult when I was84000:43:05.039 --> 00:43:07.800



watching it, you know, it kind of brought a little84100:43:07.880 --> 00:43:11.039



insight to me that, yeah, you know, this is kind84200:43:11.079 --> 00:43:13.159



of what people have to go through who are different,84300:43:13.239 --> 00:43:16.559



you know, who are classified as different from society. And84400:43:16.679 --> 00:43:19.239



how they instantly turned on him, you know, they were84500:43:19.280 --> 00:43:21.480



looking at him like he was some type of spectacle84600:43:21.480 --> 00:43:23.239



in the beginning. And you know, I'm sure that some84700:43:23.400 --> 00:43:27.400



people who suffer with you know, that kind of challenges84800:43:27.440 --> 00:43:28.960



in their life probably feel the same way when people84900:43:28.960 --> 00:43:31.840



look at them. And it was just kind of bizarre85000:43:31.960 --> 00:43:34.800



to me, you know, making that connection, and I just was,85100:43:35.719 --> 00:43:38.159



you know a little bit insightful for me to understand85200:43:38.199 --> 00:43:40.639



a little bit more about that character in a way85300:43:40.639 --> 00:43:44.000



that I couldn't understand when I was younger. I know.85400:43:44.119 --> 00:43:45.960



So it went from Johnny Depp's Hot too.85500:43:46.599 --> 00:43:50.719



Yeah, Actually it's for I love it because of its85600:43:50.880 --> 00:43:52.920



representation of all the underrepresented.85700:43:53.840 --> 00:43:56.159



It's got to give me a minute to get my85800:43:56.320 --> 00:43:59.119



thoughts together because I'm like, yo, hold on.85900:43:59.440 --> 00:44:00.519



Okay, all right, cool.86000:44:01.239 --> 00:44:02.039



So my.86100:44:03.599 --> 00:44:06.199

Polar Express? No, I don't know. I just think that92600:47:08.039 --> 00:47:11.360



it's just kind of weird. It always gave me weird92700:47:11.480 --> 00:47:14.679



vibes when I was a kid. I don't know. It92800:47:14.800 --> 00:47:19.559



was just the they look never mind what they just92900:47:19.679 --> 00:47:23.880



look so freaking weird. The characters like they look, I93000:47:23.920 --> 00:47:27.800



don't want to say it, like creepers, like they look93100:47:28.239 --> 00:47:32.519



they just look weird. Yeah, and it's just the storyline93200:47:32.599 --> 00:47:34.960



is weird. I don't know. I hated that movie when93300:47:34.960 --> 00:47:37.760



I was a kid man. I used to die every93400:47:37.800 --> 00:47:40.360



time when my teacher would say, yeah, we're gonna put93500:47:40.360 --> 00:47:44.320

on me, but it's just I don't find no spirit94100:48:00.079 --> 00:48:03.239



in it. My only favorite scene from that movie is94200:48:03.239 --> 00:48:06.480



probably the hot chocolate scene. I'm say something. The scene94300:48:07.000 --> 00:48:11.239
