Would You Let THIS Santa Down Your Chimney?

Would You Let THIS Santa Down Your Chimney?

What Do You Get a Wookiee for Christmas?
Yes, that’s a real song. Richard Crouse takes us deep into pop culture oddities, including the legendary (and legendarily awful) Star Wars Holiday Special.

They also talk about viral teen slang forcing fast food chains to adapt, a digital-only “reality” show run entirely by AI, and a chaotic streak of celebrity ambushes that’s earned one influencer bans across multiple countries. Equal parts absurd and insightful, it’s a holiday episode full of nostalgic nods and modern madness.

Why a Killer Santa Movie Deserves a Cocktail This Good
’Tis the season for blood, booze, and bizarre holiday traditions. Richard Crouse brings back Booze and Reviews with a breakdown of Silent Night, Deadly Night, the slasher reboot you didn’t know you needed. This version mixes twisted nostalgia with practical gore and a surprisingly satisfying revenge plot — plus it leans hard into Dexter-style “bad guy vs. worse guy” ethics.

To balance the chaos, Richard serves up three unforgettable cocktail stories: the Snowball, created to unload a Dutch booze surplus; Irish Coffee, born during a brutal 1943 flight delay; and George Washington’s eggnog — packed with brandy, rye, rum, and regret. This episode blends history, horror, and hilarity in one boozy sleigh ride.
