Favorite and Criticized Christmas Movies

00:04:30
Speaker
start? you want to talk about our favorite Christmas movies?
00:04:33
Speaker
Let's talk. Yeah. I do. You have, what is your, you said National Lampolans Christmas. Sure. But I can skip over that if you want. um My favorite Christmas movie. Yes. A hundred percent hands down.
00:04:44
Speaker
i watch it every year and I'm so happy that it I think it's TBS that does this. A Christmas story. Yes. Oh, I could get into that, dude. i would Hands down my favorite Christmas movie. So here's the thing. I also love A Christmas Story, but you know what I hated? And I'm sorry i hated it so, so much. I would i like couldn't wait for it to be over.
00:05:07
Speaker
A Christmas Story 2. Did you watch it? so So I've never seen A Christmas Story 2. Oh, brother, this guy stinks. That's how I felt. Yeah.
00:05:18
Speaker
But there's also another one that came out, I think last year or the year before. It was a Christmas story story. Oh, I'm talking about whatever the newest one was. no The newest one? That was the Christmas story story. Oh, that's the one I meant. That's the one I meant. That's the one where Peter Billingsley comes back? i hated much of it. See, I disagree. I thought that was pretty decent. I couldn't get Not as good as the first one, but there is a Christmas story, too, that that doesn't star anybody of the original think. It's kind of like Jingle All the Way 2. It stars Larry the Cable Guy. Yeah, I've never've never seen Jingle the Way 2. I've never seen Jingle the 2. No. Like, what's he getting? The Turbo Man. I saw a Turbo Man doll in a thrift store ah in Burbank. Did you buy it? No, it was like $75. American?
00:06:01
Speaker
Yeah. Oh! Yeah, so I don't know. I was like, but it's the hottest toy this year. So, I mean, I got to grab it. Turbo Man. The Turbo Man. Jamie.
00:06:12
Speaker
um Jamie, I love you, Jamie. Well, I own, ah i own um like you said, you love Christmas Vacation. I own that. I made sure to get a Blu-ray copy. That I love. nice That I love. You know what my favorite joke of that movie is? And it's so subtle.
00:06:28
Speaker
it it like goes by so quick is when the, I think the first set of grandparents show up or i don't remember if was the first or second, but everyone's like saying, Oh my God. Hi, how are you? And then the son, like the grandma gives him a quarter and he's just like, Oh, a quarter. She gave me a quarter and it's, it's in the back it's red there the blessing.
00:06:52
Speaker
ah bless a yeah does not bless Oh, another favorite of mine is like a when um he's talking about, oh, I heard that. Hey, kids, I heard that Santa was last. He was seen flying over town.
00:07:05
Speaker
And then because he's like, you serious, Clark? He's like, yeah, yeah, I'm serious. So there's so many little so many little jokes in that movie that I feel like you just have to have that dry sense of humor to get.
00:07:19
Speaker
You really do. It's also... They don't make comedies like that anymore, so um Like just like you said, a lot of those jokes are dry and there's kind of subtle. It just doesn't. Yeah.
00:07:31
Speaker
They don't make them like it anymore. Yeah. The most like it. Even though i hear Chevy Chase is kind of an asshole to work. I have heard that. I don't know if it's true. I've only heard bad things about him. Unfortunately, yeah I don't know the guy. I've never met him. So I hate to speak ill, but man, I've heard too many times. Yeah. He has an ego.
00:07:48
Speaker
um I've heard he you know, he would get into fights when he was on ah SNL. Yeah. But that was like over cocaine and shit. So. I mean, you you have a bunch of guys doing blow on a brand new comedy show. it was the 80s, man. It was the 80s. They're probably not getting paid crazy amounts of money yet. So and it was just high, like acting. So I don't know. It's it's got had to be a time.
00:08:11
Speaker
You

What Makes a Christmas Movie?

00:08:12
Speaker
know, I'm also going to go on record saying this. ah Beverly D'Angelo. Gorgeous. Beverly D'Angelo Googling. She was the one who played the mom. And wait, which one? Sorry.
00:08:25
Speaker
and national impoons across Oh, yeah. She gets naked in the first one. I know, but that's not what I'm I wasn't going to reference that because I'm not a pervert. Wow. You are. OK, OK. I'm allowed to talk about hot someone is. And the second you say anyway, whatever. um Set me up and knocking me down. That's OK. That's how we do it here on the Down With DP podcast. star Yeah. you Robert Dunn and Ron Prenamato. The Christmas special. Welcome to the podcast. The Christmas special.
00:08:53
Speaker
I'm in a silly mood today. I'm in a silly, jolly mood. see that. So probably because I have a Christmas hat with an ice pack under it. Maybe that's why it's freezing my fucking brain, Ron. Yeah, I'm just going to sweat with my radiator blast. I don't care. I don't even give it. It is weird. i'm And I'm in L.A. You're in New York. I'm going to I'm going to be like the New York Jets. Everything sucks, but I'm gonna fight through it. Well, hey, you know, ah is it snowing over there, by the way?
00:09:19
Speaker
It's not snowing, but it's cold and it did snow and it's the snow. I think melted a little today, but yes, we got it cool. I was on a layover in San Francisco, so I didn't have to do anything. But yeah, we got nice couple inches. Nothing crazy. Wow. You know, that's what she said, you know. um Exactly. So exactly. But um here's something when we're talking about Christmas movies.
00:09:41
Speaker
I don't know if I said mine. Mine is Christmas Vacation, but you know we've talked about on the previous episodes how much we love Jingle All the Way. um Jingle All the Way. i found and Mickey's Christmas Carol, Muppet Christmas Carol. Those are um classics as well. yeah Love Muppet Christmas Carol. Oh, absolutely. ah There's ah like a deep scene in ah the Disney one where like Mickey's son dies. Is that is that from that movie? Yeah, that's that's the animated one. I think it's made in 1981 or something like that. It's 25, 30 minute, 36 minute Short film. Yeah. Mickey Mouse's son dies in the movie. Tiny Tim dies. Yeah. He's got little crutch. They visit his grave.
00:10:19
Speaker
Yeah. They didn't fuck around. This was before Pixar. They were ripping at your heartstrings back then. Oh my goodness. They would never, I don't know if they could do that now. i don't if they could do that now. Yeah. They can't show things about real life. God forbid. Yeah. Well, um, God forbid.
00:10:35
Speaker
Uh, I also have a new love for elf. I, I always liked elf, but i want. Elf is good. Yeah. I love elf. Yeah. I did. A lot of people think it's the greatest. I don't think it's the greatest. It's fun.
00:10:48
Speaker
Bob Newhart. Gotta love him. um Shout out to Rob Reiner, by the way. Yeah. speech right yeah that's fucking um and um But something I want to ask you, I'm so curious because I am the minority here, but I'm not willing to die on this hill. Okay. Okay.
00:11:06
Speaker
i'm going What makes a Christmas movie a Christmas movie? Because there's- It takes place around Christmas. Is that? Okay. Because i generally want to know what someone's standard is because so people consider Die Hard a Christmas movie. So I want to know why. It is. why Because it is a Christmas movie. oh Because it fucking is a Christmas movie. Okay. Hey. my friend vick We're not fighting. I'm just asking the question. Sorry. just Sorry. Sorry. My friend Victor, who, who will, he will, I mean, he will die on this hill. Okay. He will fight you and he will die on this hill. Me, I, I might, you know, I'll battle, but I'll eventually get tired and go home. Yeah. um He will die on this hill.
00:11:41
Speaker
What side is he on? One thing he says that makes a Christmas movie, a Christmas movie, right? Uh-huh. The soundtrack. Okay. Is there a Christmas song? It just needs to be one on the soundtrack.
00:11:54
Speaker
Okay. Okay, I could see. for example I kind of like that, actually. For example, Die Hard. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
00:12:05
Speaker
That is a Christmas song, correct? Okay, that might i mean yeah might win me over, actually. I'm not even joking. ah That might win me over. yeah if it's on If there's a Christmas song on the soundtrack,
00:12:18
Speaker
Yes. Because consider... Ode to Joy. You usually hear that around Christmas time. Right. so Well, sometimes you do. But... Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. I believe that's the one. Yeah. yeah So, Let It Snow Alone soundtrack. Yes. Then you ask, well what about Batman Returns?
00:12:37
Speaker
Ooh, yeah. A good part of that is the Ice Princess dying. ahha At the lighting of the tree. Look at the plot. Okay. The tree lighting is a big thing.
00:12:49
Speaker
What does the Red Triangle Circus gang jump out of when they first attack? A giant present. Okay. That's given on Christmas. Wow. I'm just saying. So Batman Returns is a Christmas movie. Now, if you look at the soundtrack, it's basically a bunch of Danny Elfman.
00:13:07
Speaker
So it's kind of hard to label the sound. It's like i still consider it Christmas movie, but Danny Elfman kind of does his own shit. Yeah. so I think that gets a pass in my eyes.
00:13:18
Speaker
ah Yeah. So Christmas movie. One hundred percent. Harry Potter. Yeah, I was going to I don't think so, because it takes it takes place like Christmas is only there for like a little bit. I don't think the whole thing's around Christmas, if I remember correctly. Right. It's not. So, yeah.
00:13:32
Speaker
So not a Christmas. OK, so my thing is ah originally like I do like the soundtrack argument, actually, that's the best argument I've heard so far. Because most of the time it's gremlins.
00:13:43
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, no, I agree. I agree with gremlins. So um so um with me, it was all about does it feel like a Christmas movie? And Die Hard never felt like one. It just felt like it took place during Christmas.
00:13:57
Speaker
Does that make sense? But, as' you know, everything takes... Every Christmas movie takes place during Christmas. Sure, but it does but there's a difference between feeling Christmas The movie, why him? The movie, why him?
00:14:10
Speaker
Is it a Christmas movie? I didn't see that. That's the one with... um That's the poster with the guy. Yeah, James Robert. I know. James Franco. No day Brian Cranston Brian Cranston. Brian Cranston. I was like James Frank. I canceled his Yeah. Why him? Yes.
00:14:28
Speaker
Kiss comes to their house on Christmas. OK. Christmas. movie All right. All right. His whole thing is dry his whole thing is trying to save his company. For Christmas. Can I can I say one thing that is an absolute fact?
00:14:41
Speaker
Any time this conversation happens, there's always

Commercials and Christmas Memories

00:14:44
Speaker
hostility. There is always a... Yeah, it' people get fucking... People take this seriously. Even in this now, I feel like I got to calm Ron down. I'm good. I'm good because you you're under... you see You said you might die on this hill, but the soundtrack argument is a good argument. It is a really good... I agree. That is a good argument. And Harry Potter doesn't have Christmas songs in it, and so...
00:15:06
Speaker
Uh, it might in the soundtrack. I don't know. Maybe, maybe. I don't know. Might in the soundtrack. I don't know. I think they have, I think they have rocking around the Christmas tree in the Harry Potter soundtrack. I think that's, if they do, then it's a Christmas movie that I stand. correct No, no. Like for instance, like, okay. Oh yeah. This is a good one. My favorite, one of my favorite, favorite Christmas movies is a home alone too.
00:15:29
Speaker
All of those are Christmas movies. Absolutely. Yeah. And um mostly because of Tim Curry is the best thing in that movie. Yes. And like I saw that meme of a guy who does an impression. Everybody on your knees is like, I've called limousine to send you home and for breakfast. I in the rooms. There was an insane man with a gun for breakfast. A pizza.
00:15:53
Speaker
Compliments. Hello. I'm Nigel. Like I love Tim Curry so, so much. And I love home. He was Nigel. pore Yeah, he was. um So, yeah, that's cool. I like that argument. um I guess ah for me, I still lean into like, does it feel like it? Like, do I feel like, but at this point with diehard,
00:16:12
Speaker
it it's become such a big thing that for me, I guess it has become a Christmas movie. If a for me, if it's part of the plot, which it is. Okay.
00:16:23
Speaker
Uh huh. If it's on the soundtrack, Christmas movie. If those two meet, automatic Christmas movie. If they if one of them does not, usually if you're going Christmas song on the soundtrack, it's usually a Christmas movie. But if the plot is so like around Christmas, like where there's ah the relighting of the tree and you know all things like that, yes,
00:16:46
Speaker
and And there is that scene in Die Hard when Alan Rickman falls out of the window and is caught by Santa's sleigh at the very last second. Remember that part? So yeah, maybe it is a Christmas movie.
00:16:59
Speaker
That'd be a nice A. i did it. Yay. I convinced Robert. Yay. did it. AI artists. And I'm using quotations around the word artists. Hey, AI artists, why don't you make that? Make that Die Hard where Santa's sleigh. not give them ideas. You know they're watching us. know. And they're fucking genius ideas. Damn it. So...
00:17:15
Speaker
I wouldn't call them genius idea. Absolutely not. That makes one of us, I guess. um Okay. So, yeah, okay. that's a I like that. um So something that happened to me during Christmas one year, I was a mere child. I was a mere child. And I was in New York. I was in Brooklyn. And prayed for and i prayed ah for snow one year. And this is ah ah this is like a shout out to my cousin who left a really funny voicemail.
00:17:48
Speaker
And I prayed for snow one year in the nineties in New York. And apparently it was like one of the, it was like a bad year. Like snow wouldn't stop. It was like one of those. Was this the 96 blizzard? Oh, was it?
00:18:00
Speaker
I think so. You tell me. I wasn't there. That kind of lines up, actually. nice So was the 96, from anybody that's from New York or the Northeast, I believe it was 96. The 96 blizzard was so much freaking snow. My cousins from Jersey still talk about it to this day. Wow. My wife talks about it.
00:18:18
Speaker
Okay. Yeah, if you, almost all my New York friends, if I reference the 96 blizzard that I wasn't there for, that I saw on TV, because I was in Florida with my air conditioning on, Yeah. Wow. Okay. Because my cousin, my cousin Cliff left a funny voicemail after I went back to Florida because I was just visiting and he just left a voicemail and said, hey, this is Cliff. Can you just tell Robert to ah pray for the snow to stop? Because it's still going. And I just thought that was. ah Yeah, here it is.
00:18:47
Speaker
The northeast, the blizzard was 96 started on on january sixth and dissipated on the That's a good day. Yeah, nothing else has ever happened.
00:19:01
Speaker
No, nothing else has ever. Three Kings Day. Anyway, yeah. Yeah, so it dropped about 48 inches, and that was the highest in Pocahontas County in West Virginia.
00:19:13
Speaker
Wow. Okay. Yeah, so everybody a lot of fucking stuff. Is it my fault? It might be. maybe think it was i think it was my first time seeing snow too so i was like i was if were up there in january yeah yeah probably i don't know i'm gonna say it's my fault even though it might have been like 94 but whatever for the story i'll lie so uh that was something that was special to me um i wonder how we should do these penetrating questions because we have seven of them should we split them up we have seven i think we should do what we always do i think we should finish the agenda and then do the training questions okay well oh yeah let me um okay that's how we do it if you didn't know we do the agenda and then we do the questions you know maybe we do the cold jokes we intertwine them ron ron you know i never go to the meetings with with the staff and the board i know
00:20:05
Speaker
You know i know, I just don't I don't like being around our staff. You know, they kind of like they're so lower. You know what I mean? Wow. I think this I am getting a lot of complaints from you. Hey, you say that, too. You just don't say it in front of them. I am HR. I also own HR. am HR, too.
00:20:26
Speaker
You're a I'm HR two. um I'm HR. I don't know why I did alpha five. better I know. I guess I said it like.
00:20:37
Speaker
Yeah. I don't think we're going to be able to. I think ah my Zordon impression is the same impression I do for the SNL host where I'm like Adam Sandler. Rangers. I just realized that now.
00:20:53
Speaker
um you I have range, obviously. So, yeah, um enough of this, like, jolly stuff. Tell me something you hate. Tell me something you well robert some hate to this Christmas special. Because it's me and I'm always fucking cynical. So there is a Christmas commercial.
00:21:13
Speaker
I hate it. love Christmas commercials, Ron. Like the M&M's They do exist. Awesome. Fantastic. That's been on for 87 years. that's coco The the one I'm about to talk about has also been on for 87 fucking years.
00:21:26
Speaker
Which, by the way, the voice of ah the Red M&M, shout out to... ah Crap. Shout out to the guy who does the voice of of... Is it Billy Crystal? limpy No, no. Oh, John Christoffel or whatever. no No, no, no, You're right. Billy... billy The guy who does the voice of Ren and Stimpy does the voice of Fry from Futurama. Yeah, i know who you're talking about. Fuckin' hell. Billy West. Billy westy West. You got it. You got it. dinging Ding, ding, ding. You win. Yay! Yay!
00:21:59
Speaker
That was really loud in my ears, but it's okay. No, no, no. It's okay. But yeah, tell me about something you hate, Ron. So this commercial has been around. This this is going snowball, no pun intended, onto a different part of the conversation.
00:22:12
Speaker
Cool. Okay. And i'm I'm happy we're going to bring this up. This is, so, do you know that Hershey's Kisses commercial? Is it? dan den du du den du den correctno onling Correct. I have a gripe about that too, but continue.
00:22:29
Speaker
We're going to go. So eat as much as I hate the commercial, they kind of remixed it few years ago. and are you about to wait, wait, I'm not going to say what it is, but are you about to say what I'm thinking? I'm going to write it.
00:22:42
Speaker
Potentially. I'm writing it in the chat. I'm not going to send it to you. I will send it after you're done. So what is the song that they are playing, Robert?

Christmas Shopping and Gifting Habits

00:22:53
Speaker
um and We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:22:56
Speaker
Da-da! And what color are the Hershey's Kisses rappers? What color? I assume red and green. Red and green. That's right. Exactly. And which are traditionally Christmas colors, right?
00:23:08
Speaker
Right. If you were playing the song, we wish you a Merry Christmas. And then at the holiday, and then at the bottom, but happy holidays or warmest holidays.
00:23:19
Speaker
Just say Merry Christmas at that point. Right. That's my whole point. that's what listen, New York. I say happy holidays all the time. I work in the airlines. It's happy holidays. I'm awesome with that. But if you're going to blatantly do the song, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, just say Merry Christmas.
00:23:37
Speaker
Then do another commercial. Happy Hanukkah. Happy Kwanzaa. Do something else. You can individually say it. It doesn't have to be so... po i hate to say it, change it to Jingle Bells. Or change it to Jingle Bells. Yeah.
00:23:49
Speaker
Something like that. Because there are literally little bells. Ding, ding, ding. Like to go through and say, we wish you a Merry Christmas. And then what? Happy holidays. Warmest holidays. ah you fuck Stop it.
00:24:00
Speaker
Just say Merry Christmas. We happy holiday. We wish you happy holiday. Like on plane and I see a Jewish customer, am I going to go to them and go happy holidays? No. I'll probably say happy Hanukkah. Because I know that's what they celebrate.
00:24:12
Speaker
How do you know they're Jewish, Ron? How do you know they're Jewish? How do you know, Ron? That's right. That's what you get from saying, what's your name's naked in the first?
00:24:24
Speaker
look at you look at you okay all right its anyway yeah anyway robert wow yeah that yeah it bothers me it bothers me every year um okay so i'm i'm gonna stick to what i said i'm um i know this is really vague i put in the chat so this is another reason why i don't like this is that that yeah so yeah so this is why i have a problem with that commercial the newer what yeah that but that makes the whole That pisses me off because yeah what you're about to say, as much as I hate that commercial, they fight you can't piss me off even more with that fucking thing. Go and say it. Say it. they do a new version of this of this commercial and this commercial has been so traditional. I love it. hate it, but I love that it's traditional. Yes, exactly. Millennial nostalgia. it it Yep, yep.
00:25:16
Speaker
But it ends with a little girl picking up one of the Hershey kisses and eating it. Motherfucker. And for some reason, I'm like, how dare you eat one of the Hershey kisses that have been singing to me my whole life? Some influencer.
00:25:30
Speaker
Some influencer talked about this, I think, a couple of years ago. And yeah. No way. Really? Yes. I'm going to write off. Oh, wow. This has been talked about. And I'm happy we're talking about it because you see the anger in our eyes. You see the anger in my fucking eyes. Oh, Hershey kisses.
00:25:45
Speaker
Getting so mad at Hershey kisses, Overrated. Overrated. over Hershey's Kisses are overrated. The hugs are better. The hugs are better. Oh, yeah. the The peanut ones? Yeah. No, the ones with the white chocolate and the chocolate swirl, those are better.
00:25:57
Speaker
Oh. I think there's milk chocolate on the inside. Those are better. Okay. they don't do they make They do make Hershey Kisses with nuts in them, or am I tripping? Yeah, they have the almond ones. Yeah, those are those are better than the original, too. Yeah. ah Yeah, honestly, Hershey's with any kind of nut is better than regular. But I will say i Or the dark chocolate kisses are better.
00:26:15
Speaker
Yeah, I am the rarity, and I've said this before, where I also like a regular ass Hershey bar. I do. I was offered a piece that I'm like, no, thank you, because they're too sweet.
00:26:28
Speaker
Like, good. Like, if you make a s'mores, they're fantastic. Right. But they're too sweet. Yeah. too much Well, I'm glad that we could share that um because I just don't like that. The little girl eats the thing. You know, it's like making it felt like a remake of a movie and the remake really bad. Taking the kiss.
00:26:45
Speaker
Hey, no. You know what? like I'm not going put it on her. So here, this is a good transition. cat just got up. She's like, are you yelling at me? what I was sleeping. What what are you doing? yeah um This is a good transition because this is one of those like, I don't blame the little girl. Obviously, she's an actress. No, I blame her. She's for allowing the change. Right. But here's one thing that um it's not really Christmas related, but I don't know how much of the radio you listen to.
00:27:11
Speaker
versus i don't really drive. So I listen to Spotify, but I don't really listen to actual radio. Well, my why are radio commercials? You probably could understand this. Why are radio commercials so cheesy?
00:27:26
Speaker
Like, I understand trying to be cutesy, but there's almost like unlistenable. I turn it off. by Yeah, it's it's bad. now Yeah, like there's one. I don't know. This is just a random one. There's a Swiffer commercial.
00:27:41
Speaker
Okay. And again, I'm not blaming the actress. She did a great job. But she talks about the Swiffer mop, whatever. And then she's like, listen all these things. And at the end, she's like, and that's the and she's like, and Swiffer will be, you know, it's the best mop ever. Ha, mic drop.
00:27:57
Speaker
but I mean, mop drop. And I cringe. I shrivel into a raisin in my car and I get into an accident and I have

Cold Jokes and Holiday Humor

00:28:04
Speaker
to buy another car every time that commercial comes on. You know how many cars? i bet I've had to buy 17 cars, Ron. So you think I'm made out of money? no Network must be paying you out.
00:28:13
Speaker
yeah Right? Yeah. Well, i make so much money out. from but yeah Oh, yeah. But yeah, I don't know what is with radio. And there's a few other ones that I just am like, there's one with Will Ferrell that I just can't get through. He's like singing me with you everywhere.
00:28:29
Speaker
Is that, that's it, right? That's the one, yeah it's it's the PayPal card or something like that, and then there's like a Christmas version. Yeah. Will Ferrell, you're so much better than that commercial. I know, Will Ferrell is fucking hilarious, and I'm shocked. I love Will Ferrell, but I'm so mad that he does that. I'm like, stop!
00:28:45
Speaker
You're so much better than this. You know what makes me feel better is that Will Ferrell, you know, he obviously has the chops. He has the comedic timing. yeah If he can't make that sound good, I would be embarrassed as a writer of that. I'd be like, okay, if Will Ferrell can't make what I'm writing sound funny, then what am I if I'm a comedy writer, you know?
00:29:04
Speaker
Yeah, but I mean, it is Will Ferrell. And I don't think anyone else could make it sound like that. Like it's, you hear and you go, that's Will Ferrell. Yeah, that's always that's a good point.
00:29:15
Speaker
That's a good point. I hate it. Well, um so last thing, this is a good thing. This is something that you might appreciate. What might I appreciate, Rob?
00:29:26
Speaker
So something that I really want that's Christmas themed. um I really want and I'm going to buy him someday. But my friend, Josh, shout out to Josh in Brooksville. um I wish I had an air horn. Arrow arrow arrow. I know that job but which else you're talking about.

Speaker
umhu I don't think we've ever, we never give each other gifts for anything really. Even an anniversaries, we just go somewhere or or go to a really nice meal. We don't do anything. Yeah. um She's probably divorcing me as we speak, but that's okay. So, yeah. I'm the one who has to serve you papers.
00:31:16
Speaker
You know she would use me to serve you papers on the podcast. That'd be fucked That's what would do. But, ah yeah, so she would... um So while we're talking, um, Oh shit. Oh, I knew this day would come.

00:31:48
Speaker
Yeah. A lot of times, and I kind of, tell me if this is something I should feel bad about. Because I do kind of feel bad. Yes, you should. But, like, my mom is in Florida. And sometimes, ah you know, i shop on Amazon. And Amazon does a thing where they gift wrap it for you and have delivered. just did that, actually. Yeah. And I heard, I've actually never had it sent to me, but I heard it's, like, kind of nice. like its My mother said it was actually really nice. Yeah, she's like, I got your gift. Thank It was actually wrapped really nice. Thank you so much. i'm like, yeah oh, well spent $3.99.
00:32:18
Speaker
Right. And that's what my mom said, too. So they like it. Right. But i there's a part of me that feels bad. Two attitudes spring home moms approve. Yeah. But there's a part of me that kind of feels bad that I didn't take the time and care to wrap it myself and to mail it because it is such a bigger pain in the butt to because then I have to go to the post office and everything. But it's like, I don't know. So this year I'm skipping the Amazon gift. I'm actually going to wrap it with wrapping. i like it.
00:32:45
Speaker
Good for you. So, but as long as ah you still think I'm, that's still okay. I'm good. As far as what? As far as like doing the Amazon wrapping. Absolutely. you'd Absolutely. Okay.
00:32:58
Speaker
Cool. If they're doing a good job and it's not too expensive and makes your life easier and you can afford it, most importantly, you can afford it. Fuck it. Do it. Which which I can because my family owns a Ferrari dealership. So um thank you for choosing Dun Clearwater for Ferrari.
00:33:16

I had heard that. That's what this one person said. But this person doesn't own a Ferrari. So maybe there's got to be one, right? No, I mean, he's got it so in the movie Scent of a Woman. Okay. Okay. Which I think is technically a Thanksgiving, which is a Thanksgiving movie, I think, because they go Thanksgiving. He won the Oscar.
00:33:49
Speaker
Yes, because he never got it for anything else he did. i know. Anyway, pity award. um yeah He was very good in it, though, I thought. Over the top, but good. They go to a Ferrari dealership.

This chocolate chip's so good. I know. You know, it's not that bad, actually. You know, it tastes great. The money. The money tastes great. The money tastes the best. My ears love the money, let me tell you. Oh, shit. Oh, I got a shout out from, for those who don't know, have this weird fascination with Kerrygold butter, and I make Kerrygold commercials on my Instagram.com, and I posted one on the podcast, and I got a response from Kerrygold. Oh, shit.
00:38:56
Speaker
Yeah, they commented on it. This is the second time Kerrygold has reached out. So maybe I'm working my way up to that. Keep going. Keep going, Rob. Keep going. That is something I would loudly and proudly share on this podcast. Kerrygold butter is the best butter. do have Kerrygold in my fridge right now. And it is and we're not sponsored by Kerrygold. I'm saying it. Their butter is fantastic.
00:39:17
Speaker
Oh, where'd my butter box go? i I always have a prop with me. Anyway. um Where's your butter box? Whatever. Yeah, I keep a Kerry Gold box near near my person at all times. don't know where it went. It's okay. Where's my Butterbox?
00:39:32
Speaker
Okay, so here we go. Holy Butterbox, Batman. funny you say that. Really? Guess what? This is Batman themed. Oh, really? So, um, all right, here we go.
00:39:46
Speaker
My joke. Jingle bells. Batman smells Robin laid an egg. The Batmobile lost his wheel and Robin is currently in ICU as a phenomenon occurred when a large egg protruded out of his rectal cavity, tearing it wide open. He's lost so much blood. His doctor said, but he's currently being pumped with countless amounts of morphine and is set to make a full recovery.
00:40:09
Speaker
So yeah it's good in the end. was a little... What the fuck? i also want to want to put a note that you misread it. It's tearing it wide, wide open. i wrote wide twice, Ron.
00:40:23
Speaker
So, yeah. What the fuck did I just read? Whether I missed a word or not, what the fuck did I just read? ah You know what you read. It's ah it's a tale as old as time.
00:40:34
Speaker
Song as

Memorable and Horrifying Christmas Gifts

00:40:35
Speaker
old as rhyme. Ron lays an egg. um Does Beauty and the Beast take place during Christmas? Probably not. It's fine so there is a separate Christmas movie.
00:40:46
Speaker
Beauty and the Beast, the enchanted Christmas. Tim Curry actually plays a giant organ.
00:40:52
Speaker
Oh, like the voice of an organ that comes to life. Yes, he doesn't. He doesn't actually play a giant organ. No, he is the organ. Yeah, he is. The organ is OK, cool. Yeah. Well, Robert, that I don't know if that was a joke or i don't know.
00:41:08
Speaker
Terrifying. ah Yeah. Yeah. That was that was for that was for everyone listening. So um anyway, moving on ah One um last thing i want to say, and then we can get to our penetrating questions. ah There's a Home Alone idea. i don't know if we talked about this before about Kevin McAllister.
00:41:27
Speaker
Like. um which you call it Macaulay Culkin playing him again, but still as a nine year old. But he's an adult, but no one acknowledges it. He's just a nine year old. Have we talked about this idea?
00:41:39
Speaker
don't know. This is real. No, no, it's not real. But I think it was like a pitched as a fan thing. But I thought that I thought that would be really funny. Leave it. No, no, no. That's dumb.
00:41:51
Speaker
No. No. right, moving on. Macaulay? No. Macaulay? No. If Macaulay did it, of course I would watch it. Of course I would see it. Uh-huh. He's doing a commercial, right? Yes, and that was' that's fun. that's That commercial's Yes, that is fun.
00:42:07
Speaker
But I don't know. so Just leave our shit alone, man. I think you and I are older than Marv now. and ah the Daniel Stern in 1992. Oh, God, we are. I think so. I don't think we're now older than Joe Pesci yet. No, he was like 90 when we did that film. Yeah. Yeah, he's 140 right now. oh God bless. um Yeah. um But yeah, we can ah move on because we got seven of them to tackle. Seven. And that what I'm talking about? i do.
00:42:38
Speaker
What is it? The penetrating questions.
00:42:51
Speaker
So guys, this is the segment we call penetrating questions, which ah you can anonymously send us questions via our little form that we have on our Instagram profile link, or we have a little link tree. It's really easy. Three questions to fill out. It'll take no time at all. And it is actually anonymous. We genuinely don't know who is writing in unless you tell us tell us, unless you tell So let's see. um Let's see how this goes. Um,
00:43:17
Speaker
You want me to read the first one? Who should start? I'll start it, yeah. Sure, you're okay. Yeah, there we go. Okay. What is your favorite Christmas memory ah as a child and as an adult?
00:43:31
Speaker
Ooh, that's a good one. Huh. Huh. As a child, my father being there... No, um... Too dark? My father. No, my favorite memory as a child probably would...
00:43:48
Speaker
it's It's not just one memory. I think it's a collection over time of the Christmases with my my two uncles. um they They live in Palm Harbor, you know, about an hour drive from Spring Hill. They would sometimes come up. We would go to them. And um just being with them, they're no longer with us. So um my my my uncle actually died ah December 14th, 2020. Yeah. Yeah.
00:44:12
Speaker
fourteenth twenty twenty so yeah yeah i um Probably memories with them, I think. I think one single memory was that was really great was I got like a bunch of Batman stuff that year or something like that. i was really happy about that. So that's pretty cool.
00:44:29
Speaker
As an adult? Yeah, that's a hard one. I kind of have an answer, but... i really I've become Scrooge over the Christmas years.
00:44:42
Speaker
I've become like Krampus. Oh, Krampus. Sehr schรถn. When is Krampus? Is Krampus not tonight? I don't know. Krampus, by the way, if you haven't seen Krampus, it is such a fun... It's just good time. Krampus not is... It's like scary good times. It's not really scary. Oh, it's December 5th. We missed it already. Anyway.
00:45:03
Speaker
Oh, damn. It happens. um As an adult,
00:45:09
Speaker
I'd have to say... So, it was... It's kind of hard to say because surrounding it was really, really bad times. It was my first quiz Christmas with my wife as a couple, not as married, as a couple.
00:45:24
Speaker
And um we went to her friend's place in okay ah New Hampshire at the time. And I tried herring salad for the first time.
00:45:35
Speaker
Her best friend's mom is like a first generation German. So she made herring salad. And was fucking delicious. And it was, like I said, very sad times because it was just a major death in our families literally days before. So it was really rough. But that Christmas, I don't know, considering everything was bad, was really special. in the fact that I ate the herring salad with no problem. And right it was roast.
00:45:59
Speaker
I think we had roast. We had goose. Yeah, was goose. And then I argued. You've had goose. How is goose? Goose is good. Goose is good. And argued politics with people who actually work in Washington.
00:46:12
Speaker
at the time, I was very libertarian, so and they were very liberal, so we had um of a friendly argument. And they actually worked in D.C., like in politics, not like at the Kmart. They worked at D.C.
00:46:23
Speaker
So um that was fun. So I have to say that was probably one of my, that I can think of right now, one of my favorite memories as of it. Oh, that's good. That's actually a good one. yeah um My yeah favorite memory as a child was actually that year that I prayed for snow because it was it's probably the last. I think it was the last time I saw my grandma um because it was at her house in Brooklyn. Oh, And it was it was it was like a you know lightning in a bottle. All the cousins were there. i remember wrestling with my cousins.
00:46:53
Speaker
And it was like that was like one of the last times like the whole family was there. yeah Because it was one of those things where you have your elder that's kind of the last string of keeping everyone together. And the second they go...
00:47:06
Speaker
Second they go, everyone just separate lives. Don't have to see over. Like I have some, yeah and I love my cousins. I do, but same thing. My Italian cut there. You're Italian. love my cousins. Yeah, I do. do my My Italian cousins. I haven't seen them all of them at once in a few years.
00:47:21
Speaker
it's, it sucks. yeah You know, I, you know, how Italian I am. How I have a cousin, Vinny.
00:47:28
Speaker
I have a cousin, Vinny. I have a cousin, Anthony. All right. Well, but you know, the movie. Cute. With a, cute with a, let's say, ah you know what I'm saying? So funny. Oh, it's just close. So this goes anyway. um Yeah, it was probably that. That was great. I loved like hanging out with my cousins. We were talking about my cousin, Nick coming on the show. Cause he's, he's just such a funny dude. Um, we have, we, uh, for people who don't know, we have been working on the sidelines. We don't want to make any official announcements yet, but we have been working on some, like our first guest appearances, uh, that, that might come on the show, but we're still working on it. It's, it's easy to schedule things, just you and me to, to an extent, of course, but when you, when you add a third person, it's just like all hell. Yeah. It becomes a whole other thing.
00:48:18
Speaker
Yeah. um But yeah, anyway, with that said, ah that's probably my favorite childhood one. My favorite adult one. And here's here's where it gets a little bit weird because it's technically not on Christmas, but man, it felt like Christmas. It was technically a Thanksgiving thing. And um it was spending...
00:48:35
Speaker
But everything we did was Christmas. So it was in New Jersey. And I went to see my sister, who I haven't really spoken for the most part of my life. And now I'm really close with. And so on Thanksgiving, she's been like the place I go. But when I'm going to New Jersey, I also take the train out to the city New York. And everything is so Christmassy that I really forget it's even Thanksgiving. And I remember talking to my girlfriend on Christmas, which is always great to see her family, too, go out to Arizona. It's actually such a good time. Lies. Yeah. Oh, no, I have a terrible time, honestly. Liar. I can smell it on you. Honestly, I have a great time.
00:49:16
Speaker
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. um But there was just something so Christmassy about visiting my sister, despite it not being on Christmas. So that's probably like my favorite Christmas one in think the Northeast and Chicago Christmas very well.
00:49:32
Speaker
I agree. Yeah, maybe it has to do with the weather, but I think those cities and New Orleans, New Orleans actually does. They do everything fun. But um yeah, yeah, they do a really good Christmas. And ah right. i mean I mean, New York City in Christmastime, as much as I hate the crowds, as much as I hate people, it is one of the nicest times of the year with the city with all the holiday markets that are up. It's it's really nice.
00:49:54
Speaker
Yeah. Well, thank you, Holly Jolly, for your we have a lot. We have a lot of Christmas names. I love it. Except for the last one. i don't want to say what the last one is yet, but it's just funny to me. yeah um Not well, actually, does that?
00:50:08
Speaker
Well, we'll talk about when we get to it. So the next question is going to be from Mrs. Claus herself. Mrs. Claus says, um do you think you're on the naughty or nice list this year and why? We kind of had this question, funny enough, last episode.
00:50:23
Speaker
And I think we like we came to a, you know, i was like, I think I do the best I can. You know, I try to do the nice things for people. I try to give people things i think they'd like. I don't know. I try to I know. I know gifting things doesn't make you a nice person, but I try to, like, come in with a good morale. And I am best I can.
00:50:44
Speaker
Probably on the I'm probably one of the last minute decisions. i've said So you would probably get a lump of coal, but in that Amazon gift. Yeah, I've said cunt a lot this year. So um that might have something to do with it.
00:50:59
Speaker
I'm usually nice to people. My wife would say I'm naughty. um o Yeah, i prow I don't know. I'm probably on the nice list, I think.
00:51:10
Speaker
Okay, well, fuckers I would think so. like you You don't seem like a threat to society. No, I'm only five foot four. I'm not very threatening. I don't know. you You almost like killed that man at the bus stop. was about to knock that motherfucker. I guess I'm on the naughty list. Meet that motherfucker. wish you fucking would.
00:51:29
Speaker
You were also defending yourself. Yeah, yeah yeah I wasn't and starting it. I'm like, no, fuck off. I had a moment like that happen to me. i don't know if I shared it. where um So in l L.A., for those who don't know, one of the biggest freeways that we have is called the 405. Yes. And I remember stopping at a gas station like kind of late at night, and this car...
00:51:49
Speaker
with like a bunch of dudes that look kind of shady. They like roll down the window and they're like, hey, how do you get to the 405? Or like, where's the 405? And it's like, that's just not a question you would ask. like They didn't look like there were tourists.
00:52:05
Speaker
like It just looked like we're killing time to do something that we want to do while you're thinking. And I remember I just quit pumping gas and I was like, ah, you go that way. I didn't really know where it was. But it's just such a big it wasn't like they asked for a specific street. they're Like, where's the biggest freeway in Los Angeles? Oh, I don't know.
00:52:26
Speaker
You know, I don't know which one it is. the five But 405 is a very known freeway. And so you're not going to ask someone that. um But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe there are just four innocent young men looking for the biggest freeway. I don't know. But um yeah, thank you, Miss Claus. That is I'm sorry. i don't know if that's a lame answer. We did go into detail about it last episode. So um that's kind of cool. um Next one. Do you want to read the next one? Yeah. Also, thank you, Holly Jolly. I don't know if we thanked her.
00:52:55
Speaker
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Shout out to Holly Jolly. Elf on on the shelf. What was your favorite Christmas gift you've ever received?
00:53:06
Speaker
Ooh, so I can talk about what Christmas gift I was really excited about. And it's like, you know, a stupid, you know, probably a bit of thing where.
00:53:17
Speaker
Oh, yeah. I got like a Batman bike when was a kid. It was like the training wheels came off kind of thing. Yeah, probably a Batman bike. yeah. That changed my answer. Mine is a bike, too. But I got do you remember? I remember it was a Harley Davidson bike where they made bicycles look like motorcycles. Oh, how Florida. I love it.
00:53:36
Speaker
Oh, it was so cool. I thought it was the coolest thing ever. And so for a longest time as a kid, I drove this bicycle that looked like a Harley Davidson motorcycle. That's cool. That was really cool.
00:53:48
Speaker
That's And then there was one year where I got like all the Power Rangers or yeah, my Power Rangers that way. I don't know if i got that for Christmas. I think I did. That was awesome. Yeah, I got Ninja Turtles. i got those.
00:54:00
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. there I remember there's some good years. I forget which Power Rangers it was, but Power Rangers, for those who don't know, they always have their Megazord. And then later in the season, they bring out their like stronger Megazord, a reason to sell more toys. And I remember I got the main Megazord and I thought it was cool. i was like, oh, I got the Megazord in the back of my head.
00:54:21
Speaker
In the back of my head, I'm like, man, it would be cool to have that second Megazord. And then, and I opened that on Christmas Eve and on Christmas morning, I got the other Megazord and that was just, oh oh my God, I can't believe I have both.
00:54:33
Speaker
That's pretty cool. I think that's pretty cool. So, um, all right, we can move on. well thank you We're going to move on to, thank you. Oh yeah. Shout out to elf on the shelf. Thank you so much for your question. Appreciate you. Uh, frosty is up next frosty frosty frosty frosty.
00:54:54
Speaker
Stay frosty. Yeah. Stay frosty. Um, yeah. Snowflake. Wow. That sounds derogatory as fuck. Well, i mean, you know, snowflake. Anyway, um this person asks, ah do you have a Christmas horror story? muffin man um Do I have a favorite Christmas horror story?
00:55:18
Speaker
Yeah, like I guess something that went terribly wrong. That's what I'm thinking it meant um because I don't have any scary ghost stories. I don't have any tales of a glory. So Christmas horror story. i have one.
00:55:31
Speaker
I have one. i I was a teenager and definitely like, you know, not all you're never too old for Christmas, right? But um right so a lot of times I would wake up like four o'clock in the morning and go to the tree and like find my stocking and go look in my stocking before everyone else woke up.
00:55:52
Speaker
um It was like, i think this year was like six or seven in the morning. Don't do it. And... ah Yeah, I went out and there were no presents around the tree.
00:56:06
Speaker
And I'm like, yes and my sister was still very young. So I'm like, you're like, what's the deal? what you You know, i sit my sister was still, I think she was like nine or ten or something like that. So she was still young.
00:56:18
Speaker
So I go knock on the door. like, mommy didn't put the presents out yet. Okay, I'll go do that. And then I go sit in my room. And it was the first time in my life I went to the tree on Christmas day.
00:56:33
Speaker
Now, mind you, this probably happens to a lot of people and I feel for those people, but it was just like, there was nothing there. And I'm like, I'm a child still. And there's nothing there.
00:56:44
Speaker
This really sucks. I was just like, ah, and like I said, this probably that happens to a lot of people and that really fucking sucks. But it was just kind of like, mom, what the fuck were you doing all night?
00:56:57
Speaker
You're a single parent. who are you you What are you doing? You have one job tonight. One job. eat Two jobs. Eat the cookies, drink the milk, put the shit under the tree. Yeah, maybe you do deserve it. And I'm on the naughty list.
00:57:13
Speaker
And they're just like that. but yeah um It's that's kind of like an interesting thing, because I remember at a time in my life, this is like a little bit not related to Christmas, but that transition of when you're getting older and you're not playing with toys anymore. Do you remember that moment? Because I definitely have a distinct memory of when I went from really want to play with toys to now like, ah, I don't. um Right. Maybe when masturbation first came into play, that's when start losing interest in toys. ah I do not remember the moment. I was probably around like 11, 12, 13 in that range where the transition kind of happened. It's like, I'm playing with toys and the next day I'm doing algebra. Yeah, no, I um right i do not know exactly when that happened. Do you know you remember exactly when that happened?
00:58:02
Speaker
Yeah, I remember a distinct moment when, because, you know, I was a big Power Ranger kid, so that was like my go-to. I played with Power Rangers. And again, people that don't know, there's always a new set of Power Rangers like almost every season. So you always have to buy new toys. It was a toy making factory. That's what Power Rangers was. And I remember when the new set was out, you know, like clockwork, I would want to get the new set. was like, oh, these are the new Power Rangers. I want to play with them. And I remember...
00:58:28
Speaker
Starting to buy the new ones. And I got like, there's usually five Rangers, six later, but I got like three in and I remember going to buy like the fourth. And I just remember having this like hesitation of like, do I...
00:58:43
Speaker
Do I want, am I, am I excited to, to get this? Like, am I going to go home and play with this? Or like, it was a, such a weird thing. Cause I was like, I want to want to play with it, but for some reason I just couldn't. I was like, oh I kind of don't want to play with this. i did have that. um I do. i do remember, recall having a moment like that. I got like the, like the beast wars, transformers kind of thing, or it was like, yep.
00:59:10
Speaker
And you could build them and they become one giant transformer kind of thing. It was like an elephant, an eagle or so something like that. I don't know. But I remember at a certain point being like, yeah, same thing.
00:59:22
Speaker
I too old for this? It's fun, but I feel like I'm just... And that's when my childhood died. That was the moment. I know. and And I did i hated it because I wanted to want to do it. Yeah. know I wanted to still... Because you have so much joy playing with toys as a kid. but For some reason, it just turns It just hit differently. Yeah.
00:59:44
Speaker
Yeah. And I don't mind like buying... Because I have my nerdy shelf of stuff.

Collectible Action Figures

00:59:49
Speaker
But I'm not playing with them. It's a different kind want now. I have Batman action figures kind of thing. That's like... Right. They're still in their...
00:59:59
Speaker
in their ah in they' In the packaging, yeah. Yeah, like I have a friend, he loves Venom. He has a bunch of cool Venom stuff, but no one's no one's playing with them. So it's it's ah's a weird switch.
01:00:10
Speaker
like the childhood is still there, but I understand the importance and the how they might be worth something one day. So we keep them yeah in mint condition if we can. Right. Yeah. yeah no So um my my Christmas horror story, Frosty, I don't know if I technically have a horror story. Nothing went like horribly wrong on Christmas with me. um There's definitely been like some like there is one where it was just my mom and I and that was it.
01:00:38
Speaker
Um, not that that was a bad Christmas. It was definitely not as exciting and energetic as it has been in the past. So yeah, I guess I've been kind of lucky. Um, but yeah, that's a great question. Frosty.

School Plays and Childhood Memories

01:00:52
Speaker
Do you remember when I played Frosty the snowman in middle school?
01:00:56
Speaker
um No, fuck no. Anyway. No. In fact, you know, you know who? OK, so we have our we have our friend, Brad. Fucking Brad. And I, I, I generally I remember telling him this and he was like, ah fuck you, as if I was making fun of him. But I genuinely thought he played Charlie Brown in a Charlie Brown like like play. OK, first of all, first of all.
01:01:21
Speaker
There was a Charlie Brown play in Central High School. I don't if it was high school, but I don't know I don't remember. Yes, I think one year they did do You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown in high school. Yes, I was not part of that production, but they did do it. Yes. And Brad did not play. I swear.
01:01:37
Speaker
I swear Brad was in it. Like, who was it? Maybe I thought it was him the whole time because I know he was into theater and stuff. yeah So it didn't it it wasn't like a shock. I was like, oh, that's clearly Brad playing. And and I didn't play it. So, um yeah, I don't know who you're thinking buddy. I don't know.
01:01:54
Speaker
um Anyway, that's Timothee Chalamet now. Right. Just kidding. He's I know I should have said like Shia LaBeouf. He would not be in our graduating class. All right. Thank you, Frosty.
01:02:06
Speaker
Thank you, for Frosty. Yeah, Shia LaBeouf would be like, no, no, no, no no no Santa! Bumblebee! ah So the next question... Flounder. and right Okay. This is this is you. Flounder.
01:02:20
Speaker
This guy is from Flounder. i know who this person is now, but I will not say. Okay.

Friendship Updates and Personal Preferences

01:02:25
Speaker
i wanted to follow up on Gen G. that's what We got a penetrating question about Gen G, about their friendship or something, or like he liked her, they were friends or something. yeah Oh!
01:02:36
Speaker
Okay, let's go. She moved back from Florida because it was too boring. So now everything is back to normal. Karaoke continues onward. Thanks for helping. Flounder rediscovered his friendship with Gen.G and finds insight in the complex emotions he faced.

01:03:07
Speaker
kind of remember. I think he was like, he was trying to, hard out I don't think Gen.G really appreciated him or something like that. And think that's what I'm remembering. And it was like, what should they do? Or how should I do it? And I'm like, where you and I were both like, dude, if she's going to treat you like shit, fuck her.
01:03:24
Speaker
I think that was it. Oh, yes, right. oh Also, I want to give um just something I noticed in this. ah Though that we, I don't know how to say this, but we we also accept just like these stories. Like I know it's called penetrating questions, but this is technically not a question. i We actually just like hearing like- Yeah, following up.

I genuinely love giving gifts and always do my best to be as thoughtful to the recipient as I can. But on the flip side, ah i think I am a terrible gift receiver.
01:05:38
Speaker
Oh, I could speak on this. For better or worse, I just can't hide my instant reaction. Obviously, I always appreciate gifts, but it's just always, it always means more when the gift is personal to me or my interest. That being said, what's the gift you were most proud of giving someone

Memorable Gifts Given

01:05:55
Speaker
and why? Best of luck and here's to many episodes in 2026. Thank you. Hope your son's doing well, by the way.
01:06:02
Speaker
So I'm guessing she, ah it's hard for her to kind of like... Hide the emotions of something? toilet seat covers! Thank you so much!
01:06:13
Speaker
Right. Like, my mother is not a reaction gift. Thank you for the gift. So... Yeah, basically. i stay like i could i could i could I could pull up in a brand new car made out of gold and be like, oh, wow, this is great.
01:06:29
Speaker
Oh, that's very nice, Ronald. No, she's not Italian. She's German. right That's very nice, Ronald. Wow. Yep. Yep. And you're just like, oh my goodness. But hey, it's ah it's ah it's just how they are.
01:06:46
Speaker
um But what is the gift you're most proud of giving someone and why? um There was a moment I remember where I gift, I don't know if it was for Christmas, but I remember- I love how a lot of these questions are about Christmas. you're like, this actually didn't happen during Christmas. It took place in spring of 95.
01:07:06
Speaker
Well, guess what? Natasha said, what's the gift? you were most proud of giving someone. So maybe it was Christmas actually. You know what? I just remembered it was, it was on December 25th. Uh, but I remember, um, I, uh, I was, I was like kind of a, I think I was in a teenager and it was the first time I think I had a credit card and I was like, be able to buy it. It was also online purchasing. Sorry. No, no. Yeah. Um, I, uh,
01:07:37
Speaker
I remember um going online and purchasing something, which was kind of a new thing. yeah And i got my I got my parents' Neil Diamond tickets. Oh, and it And that was the first... And I think my dad, who was never good with computers, either is my mom, but...
01:07:55
Speaker
I think he was just like caught like curve ball. Like, wait, what? You bought how? Like he was just and I remember was the first time my dad like kind of got a little emotional because I think he was so shocked that I got something.
01:08:11
Speaker
that he probably want, he would never think that he would get, you know, that I got him tickets to see Neil Diamond, who he loved. and i And I think it just hit him out of nowhere. It's like, whoa, whoa, wait, wait, I'm now going to a Neil Diamond concert? Are you fucking kidding me? So that was always like a special moment because it just caught him so off guard.
01:08:30
Speaker
And I loved, that was a gift I loved giving. I don't, I don't do gifts. So all right thank you, Natasha, so much for sending it. Oh, sorry. Sorry. i Sorry. So like to say I'm proud of giving somebody, I i don't know.
01:08:48
Speaker
I really can't think of it. like try Like, yeah, it is like hard. I think I got my mom, Billy Joel tickets up here in New York.
01:08:59
Speaker
um But I don't remember if that. Yeah. The garden um at February 2020, right before the world ended. Yeah. Yeah, good times. I don't... So I don't... Nothing's coming to me right now.
01:09:14
Speaker
like Like, I don't do gifts. Like, for example, like, when you're at a company, like, your office does a secret Santa, I'd never participate. Because i think it's yeah it's so impersonal.
01:09:25
Speaker
I don't do it. I agree. you kind of You're doing it because you feel like you have to. I'm like, no, I fucking hate these people. i am getting cold as here. Shit. ah yeah i know i don't like that i don't I don't like Brian in accounting. He fuck himself. I don't care.
01:09:40
Speaker
No, you're doing it. Fuck you. I'm not...
01:09:44
Speaker
That's how, like, when you say, like, I don't really gift, like, my girlfriend i will do, like, ah we'll spend money on a or something. But it's kind of it's kind of turned into, like, gift giving, though, because, like, you know what happens? You say, no, let's not get anything. Let's spend our money elsewhere. here's one that I can think that i was like.
01:10:00
Speaker
Someone gets gift. Here's one I can think of. And then you feel guilty. I have one. I have one I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I have one. and want to lose it. Okay, okay. My nephew, he's... He's 10 or 11. He's 11 now. Years ago, he was into art.
01:10:14
Speaker
And I remember I took him to a baseball game at St. Pete to see the Rays. And he was like mesmerized by all the street art on the walls and stuff like that. He thought it was really cool. So I went and got him a collection of all the Banksy street art.
01:10:28
Speaker
And I thought i was like, all right, that's pretty cool. he's He does look at it it from time to time. So, yeah, that was what I'm pretty proud There you go. There you go.
01:10:39
Speaker
That's cool. Well, thank you, Natasha. First of all, thank you for the nice note. Hope you have a great Christmas and you have a great Christmas. Yeah. um So here we go. Our last and final penetrating question. Not a Christmas name. This person goes by Robocop0101.

Wishes from Santa and Old Christmas Movies

01:10:58
Speaker
is Robocop, does that take place during Christmas at all? Are you reading two in a row? Is that you're doing right now?
01:11:08
Speaker
Isn't this my turn? Yeah. I'm so sorry. i am so sorry. i am stealing all the joy out of Christmas. Anyway. I think I just wanted to talk about the username. No, go ahead. I'm sorry. No, this is yours.
01:11:19
Speaker
No, no. i I was asking if RoboCop was a Christmas movie. Is it? I don't remember. I haven't seen it in years. i don't know. I don't know. I would say no. Does it take place during Christmas? I'm biased. I don't remember, actually. i haven't seen it in years. I don't remember. Okay.
01:11:34
Speaker
If Santa was actually real with the North... with the North Pole, reindeer, elves, and etc. And age was not an issue. What would you like to ask Santa?
01:11:44
Speaker
Like, what would you wish for? First off, Robocop0101, Santa is fucking real, okay? Yeah, it's a robot. He doesn't know better. Okay, like, I saw this today online.
01:11:59
Speaker
If I can believe that The Undertaker and Kane were really brothers, okay, then I can believe Santa Claus is real, okay? Um... that What would I like to ask Santa for? What would I wish for?
01:12:11
Speaker
It's going to sound cheesy like I'm Miss America, but I would just want all this fucking anger to stop, man. See, I was going to stop you before you said that because I don't treat Santa like a genie. I think so i think Santa gives you materialistic things.
01:12:28
Speaker
I think he would have to give you objects. I i don't i but i know that movies do different shit. He hits his nose. I'd like a car. you know I'd like a car. It doesn't have to be a nice car. It just has to be a car.
01:12:40
Speaker
I don't need it. More of a want. Yeah. ah dont I don't want the payments. I just want... I just want a membership to the jelly. But I do. If I could wish for something, it's I want all this shit to stop.
01:12:52
Speaker
Really. do Yeah. Yeah. um I would want a new car for sure. um My car runs, but it's kind of like cosmetically appealing. And you need a car. And you really do.
01:13:08
Speaker
You do. Oh, no, no. yeah I'm dead. well You guys do have a car. i'm go to Air quotes bus system, right?
01:13:16
Speaker
Yeah, we sure do. But anyway, i I would say a car or a new iPad. A new computer. I need a new laptop. So yeah, forget the car. Give me a laptop. Yeah.
01:13:28
Speaker
Definitely need one of those. Yeah. but um Yeah, that would be good. So have the Elvis make that. Thank you, Robocop 0101. Yeah. It's funny how Santa still only gives more gifts to the rich kids.
01:13:41
Speaker
Do you think that's weird? Kind of skips over the poor kids. Fred Claus is a good movie. I like Fred Claus.
01:13:51
Speaker
Fred? Yeah, Fred Claus. Paul Giamatti plays Santa. Oh, right, right, right. The reason I thought of that is because the boy Slam, his nickname is Slam. His real name Sammy, I think, but he goes by Slam.
01:14:05
Speaker
um Fred Claus gets him ah a puppy or something like that, and he's like in an orphanage, I think. So it's like, you know, a lot those... They're always at an orphanage. It's always an orphanage. Every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings. um Just for record, I hate It's a Wonderful Life. I said it.
01:14:25
Speaker
I'm going to bring that back. Oh, well, well, why, why, why do you hate all? I understand it's iconic, but it's too fucking cheesy. the best impression I could do. Jimmy Stewart. Too fucking, too fucking cheesy. Yeah. I've never done a Jimmy Stewart impression. But, um, yeah, well, it's like, it's like one of the earliest, like, you know what movie I haven't been able to get through.
01:14:42
Speaker
Maybe I could now as adult is white Christmas. I just never, it was so boring. I couldn't get through it, but maybe I, maybe I'd appreciate it. I don't know.
01:14:54
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah, so maybe I'd appreciate it more as i'm older. Last question, and then I'll do my fire ob and beer, and then we'll leave everybody. um Okay. Miracle on 34th Street. New one or old one?
01:15:09
Speaker
I don't think I've seen either. thank you very much. um They're both, in my opinion, and they're both fantastic. One of them has Matilda. One of them has Mara Wilson. Yes.
01:15:20
Speaker
Yes, 1930s one.
01:15:25
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, yeah. the The comparison thing is cool. Like in the for in the original one, how do they prove Santa's real? Santa gets mail delivered. They have to deliver every piece of mail.
01:15:36
Speaker
So that's kind of cool. In the newer one, which I actually like this better to prove Santa's real in court. They circle on the back of the dollar in God we trust.
01:15:47
Speaker
People put their faith in a being they've never seen before. And everyone says he's real. So how can you say Santa's not real? which I thought pretty Right. Right. Okay. Um, Rob, do you have anything else want to say?
01:15:59
Speaker
Not really. Um, yeah, not, just not really. Uh, I, I thought of this weird idea for a movie, ok but, um, where Santa runs for president. i would watch that. don't know if that's played by Timothee Chalamet.
01:16:14
Speaker
Um, Oh God. Yeah. Or I thought of a title called King Santa. And i don't know what that means. i don't know what the story would be, but um I don't know. Okay. don't know. I don't know why you said that. That's like a weird thought I had the other day. we're going to go into the fire an year. Here we go.
01:16:32
Speaker
What do you said, Robert? What else do you have to say? Never asking that again. Here we go. um Yep. And it's going to come out and it's going to start Jack Black. Actually, Jack Black has never played Santa that I can think of right now.
01:16:46
Speaker
He did. No, he did. He did recently. think. Right. There's a recent one. that he Yeah. forgot Well, this is um I think it's from the book the company's called the Book of Nomad, I think, or it's called the Book of Nomad.
