The Holiday Episode

Our thoughts on holiday stories, movies, and songs

We fondly remember President Jimmy Carter, and we share events from our own holidays.

We address the critical question of whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie and we find more common ground than expected.

We debate our favorite holiday movies and songs.

Tim calls out a college football coach who cannot seem to win or play fair.

John praises heroes who open their hearts to rescue dogs.

We end by thanking all those who have made the podcast what it is.
