Episode #217: "The Manson Family Christmas Special" | Scrooged (1988)

It's December! It's... it's the one month of the year when we all act a little nicer, we smile a little easier, we... we cheer a little more. For a little over an hour we podcast about a modern spin on the Scrooge story. It's really a sort of a miracle. And if you waste that miracle, you're gonna burn for it, I know what I'm talking about. 
And if you listen to the podcast with kids in the car, maybe skip ahead a minute or two at the 1:14:40 mark since Dennis basically ruins the big secret about Santa at that point. Way to go, Dennis.

Episode #214: "Oh, Funny Face!" | The Naked Gun (1988)

It's the same old story. Boy starts podcast, boy watches movies with friends, friends cohost with boy, podcast gets to 1988, 1988 sees the release of The Naked Gun,boy and friends podcast about The Naked Gunwithout dying in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day. I'd say that's a good year.
