Professional nerd and hilarious writer Dani Fernandez thought she was picking the Mickey Mouse Christmas Carol, but she picked this instead so now she’s stuck talking about it. We still have a great time talking about the general wackiness of the Muppets doing Christmas, how Michael Caine totally kills it as Scrooge, and how some of these here puppets could use a little bit of cleaning. There’s a fun game about picking your favorit...

Richard Lawson tells us all why he loves nothing more than Catherine O’Hara’s performance in this Christmas classic. Still one of the biggest blockbusters of all times, both boys love this film, but for totally different reasons. Yes, all you may remember is that Macaulay Culkin tortures some crooks and also screams with his hands on his face, but there is so much more to this darling film. Richard also tests his movie knowledge by...

Nothing is gayer and Christmas-ier than this movie which stars both comedian Samantha Ruddy’s and Brian’s imaginary wife Kristen Stewart as part of a lesbian couple who has to go back into the closet when going to her girlfriend’s family’s house for Christmas. Yes, they both love this movie, but they also realize that it is completely insane, and there is no way that Kristen and Aubrey Plaza shouldn’t end up together in the end. Ju...

Homophilia podcaster Matt McConkey loves this movie during the holidays because it reminds him of escaping from his family to watch it alone in his room on his laptop, the way that God and SJP intended it to be watched. But it’s also all about the spirit of the holidays, being with friends, finding forgiveness, and trying to catch that little flash of peen when your hot neighbor is taking a shower. That is the real Christmas miracl...

In a very special bonus episode the geniuses behind the Watch What Crappens podcast and the president and founder of the Real Housewives Institute couldn't let a Kyle Richards Christmas movie pass without commenting on it. They talk about the new Peacock original movie where Kyle Richards and Betsy Brandt (from Breaking Bad) play best friends turned rivals in a small town Christmas decorating concert. The guys talk about all the Ho...

You mean the weepie with Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon? A Christmas movie? Comedian Liza Treygar makes a very convincing case for it, especially since she saw it in a theater on Christmas day with her whole family. Her dad is still mad about it. She and Brian not only analyse the stars’ wonderfully antagonistic relationship, but Brian talks about his dinner party with Susan Saradon, and they play a game where Liza tries to guess...

The only things Everything Iconic podcaster Danny Pellegrino and Brian love more than Real Housewives are Christmas movies. Here they talk about one of Danny’s unhinged favorites, the 2000 version of How the Grinch Stole Christmas starring Jim Carrey. They talk not just about the nonsense plot that was grafted onto the Dr. Seuss classic, but also all of Carrey’s awful on-set antics while filming it. Of course they couldn’t not talk...

Vox writer Alex Abad-Santos comes by to talk about gay Twitter’s favorite holiday movie: The Family Stone. What is not to love? There’s Sarah Jessica Parker, Rachel McAdams playing a bitch, tons of grey sweatpant bulge, a gay deaf character, and Diane Keaton as a New England Matriarch. You won’t even mind that the whole family is a bunch of psychopaths because the whole thing is just so damn cozy. Alex also plays a silly word game ...

Radio host extraordinaire Romaine Patterson absolutely loves the animated classic that started the kids’ Christmas cartoon trend, and so does Brian! They talk about the best things about the film, Charlie’s sad tree, Lucy being a bully, finding the true meaning of Christmas, and whether or not the whole thing is just a little bit too Jesusy. They also talk about the worst thing which is the erasure of lesbian icon Peppermint Patty....

Former teacher and stand-up comedian Joe Dombrowski stops by to chat about the film that essentially created the PG-13 rating. Gremlins isn’t a traditional Christmas movie, but it is set on Christmas Eve when a bunch of evil creatures (some of them clearly big old queens) take over a sleepy town. We go over the three rules of taking care of a Gremlin and how those are the same as the three rules for taking care of drag queens. Joe,...

Famous sex advice columnist Dan Savage joins Brian to talk about the ubiquitous Christmas classic that launched a million sitcom remakes. They not only recap this surprisingly communistic film from the 1940s but also talk about how it spawned the Hallmark Christmas Movie Industrial Complex and what that says about our great nation. Along the way, they chat about town sluts, why they’d rather live in the evil “Pottersville” rather t...

Hilarious internet and TV writer R. Eric Thomas joins Brian to talk about the Bing Crosby classic with a title song just about everyone can sing. The NAACP also gets on the phone to stop R. Eric from defending a rather cringey minstrel number from the original movie. Other than that, the movie has a hidden gay subtext with a hilarious drag performance, a gay icon in the making, and one of the characters prefers being with guys in t...

Olympic medalist and Quibi survivor Adam Rippon joins Brian to talk about Will Ferrell’s Christmas classic where a human baby is raised in the North Pole and then returns to find his biological father. They talk about all the best moments of the film, the creepiness of Buddy the Elf creeping on his love interest in the shower, and how the worst part of the movie is that Zooey Deschanel is a blonde. Adam also shares the odd Christma...
