What is Christmas time without a little schmaltz? On today's show, we dive deep into what the critics called a "very schmaltzy" Christmas classic, 'The Family Man.'

This sappy film starring Nicolas Cage and Téa Leoni is currently Rotten at 54% on the Tomatometer, but it has a fresh 67% Audience Score.

Actor and comedian Tony Baker joins Mark and Jacqueline to discuss whether Rotten Tomatoes is wrong about 'The Family Man' and also get into some of their personal favorite holiday classics.

How do you feel about 'The Family Man' from 2000? Is it overly sentimental? Or is it an underrated Nicolas Cage gem?
