We're back from an extended Fallcation (a vacation where you fall down a lot) and we brought our movie correspondent Nicole Russell back to watch Santa's Slay, a movie that feels like a Disney Channel Christmas movie until they start decapitating old people. What did we think of this? Were we permanently scarred? Do we even like Christmas anymore? Find out!

The King of Snacks Rob Gagnon graces the Committee with his presence, and we honor his visit with a pork-stuffed, cheese-coated and chocolate-glazed episode that's all about the treats. We talk the marvel of the sous vide, Reese's penis, the ubiquitous green bean casserole and way more.

Hey everyone! Avery was off in Montreal at Just For Laughs, which is incredible, but unfortunately Canadians do not believe in Christmas or cheer so we were unable to record a new episode. So instead we put together a clip show of some of our favorite moments from the first 11 episodes. That's how soon you should have a clip show, right? I believe it is. Enjoy!

We play a little Yuletide Trivia with our guest, Robert Segovia. Then we deal out some Christmas Advice, and no, your priest doesn't need you to buy him an XBox. Plus we talk about why cops shouldn't drive (answer: they're bad at it!).

Look, a lot can happen when you record a podcast. You might, say, accidentally leave all the microphones off but one. And then you might have so much fun talking about all the weird Christmas monsters Dutch people invented to keep their children from talking shit about the king that you end up deciding to keep the episode even though it sounds kind of bad. Oh and also Danny Goodwin (@goodwinmaadcity) hangs out with us.

This was a fun one. Aaron Brooks gave us a primer on Midwest B-room comedy and we checked in with our very normal friends fighting the War on Christmas. THEN we get in to the saga of Legs, the Shorts-Wearing Cop. If we sound more energetic than last week it's because we recorded this one first.

What will Christmas be like in 2028? 2118? Or another year? The future is unpredictable as ever, and as we find out with our guest Melody Shifflet, the future of Christmas is...actually pretty predictable. We discuss why there's nothing ever to look forward to, plus we talk about Adam's new dog!

We had a blast with Ben Cholok talking grape soda, HBO's "Barry", and the importance of shaking your Christmas tree. Ben put birds on the Naughty List which made Adam feel vindicated, and we had the biggest Criminal Cop of the Week maybe ever?
