Before we can fully embrace the season, Ian and Jam need to turn in some overdue assignments. We finally listened to a few long-languishing requests, and this episode is our essay comparing and contrasting them! "Our Last Christmas" by Thor and "I'm Spending Christmas Alone" by Future Wife both seem like melancholy ruminations on paper, but there's more to interpret than at first glance. Grab your No. 2 pencils and stare wistfully out of a classroom window with us!

The ranking music in this episode was "Santa Says Relax" by Joe Innis and the Cavalcade.

Thank you to CJ and Charles for these requests, respectively!
