85: A Holiday Movie Battle Royale
After last week’s internet-melting controversy — Mike’s scorched-earth campaign to include Contagion in the canon of holiday movies — the guys return to restore order and festive cheer.
With Mike still on the bench, Mark steps in as moderator and ringmaster, guiding Jim and Randy through a spirited, heartfelt, and occasionally chaotic showdown of their Top Three Holiday Films.
From timeless staples like Home Alone, A Christmas Story, Miracle on 34th Street, and A Christmas Carol, to the personal favorites that make the season magical for each of them, every pick is defended with gusto, nostalgia, and just enough good-natured rivalry to keep things spicy.
It’s a warm, funny, and debate-filled sleigh ride—perfect for anyone who loves holiday movies, strong opinions, and friends who aren’t afraid to argue about both.
