Join us this Christmas as we discuss one of the worst holiday-themed movies to come out two months after December, Reindeer Games.  We talk about terrible open-mouthed kissing, how much Ben Affleck likes pecan pie, and a strange cameo by Ashton Kutcher.  Also, we learn all about Paul's intimate relationship history with his mom.  Joining us this week is Who Charted's Howard Kremer who helps us learn about symbolism and what the holidays really mean.  There are no reindeer games here! Happy holidays from How Did This Get Made!

We asked you to vote which movie represented the best/worst Christmas movie and John Frankenheimer's last theatrical film, Reindeer Games (which you can watch on Netflix Instant) took the fruit cake! Paul goes through a special holiday Viewer Mail Bag and answers very important questions regarding the origin of kissing under the mistletoe, the worst version of a Christmas song, and why there aren't more movies about Hanukkah. Be sure to keep submitting new logos for the show as we will choose one real soon!

Join us as we discuss the crazy time jumps and smashed bottles that make up Lifetimes Liz & Dick. We discuss everything from the career of Lindsay Lohan to the inexpiable togas seen throughout the film.  Don't forget to grab your Vodka Vodka and "Norbit it up" for this spectacularly bad made-for-TV movie that we saw with the incomparable Groundling, Drew Droege.
