This week, we're talking about our favorite Christmas movies – old and new. Find out which 1946 Christmas movie classic is on our list and why Batman Returns is actually a Christmas movie!
We’re also giving you this week’s homework: be sure to watch Four Christmases with Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon. We purposely left that off our list today because that’s what we’re going to talk about next week.
HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS WEEK’S SHOW:
- Movies or TV shows that signal the Christmas season for us
- Jake says if National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is not #1 on your list of Best Christmas movies, then you need to reevaluate your list.

- Some of our best picks include The Holiday, Love Actually, The Christmas Chronicles, Tim Allen’s The Santa Clause, Home Alone, Fred Claus, Elf, and Mickey’s Christmas Carol
