This week, we venture into the dark heart of the American experiment with a nativity play, a bounce house, and some of your favorite distressingly right-wing actors. It’s ‘Four Christmases,’ a certifiable not-classic that nevertheless holds some highly specific value for our hosts. We talk about childlessness by choice, Peak Vince Vaughn Territory, singers who act in movies but don’t sing in them, and the undervalued comedy stylings of Reese Witherspoon. It’s a nightmare landscape peopled with backyard wrestlers and fat Jesus babies, so grab your Velveeta dip and your pregnancy test and let’s quadruple the Christmas!

‘Twas ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ – Season 3 Premiere!
Welcome to the third season of A Podcast For Christmas! And what better way to kick off the Christmas season than with a Halloween movie? In this season premiere episode, we talk about ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas,’ the classic Tim Burton film that is somehow not directed or even written by Tim Burton. There’s pumpkin kings and oogie boogie men and no small amount of cultural appropriation afoot, so grab your candy corn and your Jack Skellington hand puppets and let’s make Halloween a Christmas thing!
