503 - Twisted Christmas: Black Christmas vs. A Christmas Story

You'll slash your eye out, Kidder! To close out our truncated season, it's a Twisted Christmas double feature, as Paul and Arlo explore both of Canadian auteur Bob Clark's yuletide classics: 1974's proto-slasher Black Christmas and the 1983 staple A Christmas Story. The boys separately find each of these movies to be deeply annoying…but who couldn't stand which one?! Just kidding, Paul's not that into the horror movie and Arlo can't stand the cutesy nostalgic one. We have a brand, and we're sticking to it. Plus, our favorite movies and TV shows of 2023.   NEXT: Merry Christmas and happy New Year! We'll potentially be back in January potentially with a guest and potentially discussing a movie. So much potential for 2024, can't wait to squander all of it!
