We talk about the inexplicably star-studded comedy, The Bigfoot Who Saved Christmas. Excuse us, “Pottersville.” Meanwhile, Stuart brags about his back strength, Dan uncovers the world of Raising Cain conventions, and Elliott goes on his longest (most infuriating?) bit ever.

“Hey, I think you’ve hit on something there: Sheep’s clothing — Sheep’s clothing! Let’s get out of these gorilla costumes.” – Gary Larsen, The Far Side
“Obiwan never told you what happened to Bigfoot.”
“He told me enough. He told me you’re Bigfoot.”
“Oh, uh, well yeah. I guess he did tell you. Wow, this reveal is anticlimactic.”
“Sorry. I don’t suppose you’re also my father.”
“Nope. Sorry.”
“Oh well, next time.”
“I saw a movie on a plane called Blindspotting; it’s about blind Scottish junkies…”
