Christmas Movies, Why Mushrooms Suck & Childhood Stories | Comic - Joe Botelho | UncutJams #50

from Uncut Jams with James Cummins · host James Cummins

Christmas Day special with my guy Joe Botelho and we're drinking rum and eggnog like adults.Joe came through for the Christmas episode and we got into everything: why he refuses to ever do mushrooms (and went on a 10-minute rant about drug users trying to convert people), his theory that A Bug's Life vs Antz was a spite movie, why his 21-year-old virgin son doesn't drink, and the time he smashed his dad's garage radio with a sledgehammer as a kid.We also debated which Christmas movies are elite, why Santa doesn't need to be about Jesus, whether Joe needs to "find himself" (he doesn't), and why destroying things as a kid just hits different. Plus Joe's plan to be a mall Santa despite not even liking Christmas that much.This one's unhinged in the best way. Merry Christmas, degenerates.📍 JOE BATTELLO:Instagram: @joebotelho⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:0:00 - Intro: Christmas rum and eggnog2:30 - Joe's 21-year-old son is a virgin4:18 - Losing virginity on Valentine's Day in grade 127:00 - Day Trip sponsor + Serenity Now for depression8:30 - Why Joe went on a 3-week mushroom bender12:00 - A Bug's Life vs Antz: The spite movie theory15:10 - Mushrooms make you see trees breathe (Joe hates this)19:00 - "I don't need drugs to know myself" - Joe's anti-drug manifesto22:01 - Was Santa invented by mushrooms?
