It's that special time of year again where every film and song rubs a winter wonderland in our faces while we all melt in 40+ degree heat. But Christmas can also be a time for learning, for teachable moments, for Christmas Carrol-like revelations.
This episode is all about how to handle some standard holiday fare while also keeping in mind what Christmas is really all about.

The simple 6 steps to cope with food pushers over the holidays:
Question 1: Am I an asshole for demanding the same Christmas present as my stepbrother?
Two 17-year-old brothers are faced with a pretty significant gift difference - a gifterence. One gets a car, the other gets $600.
So he does what any 17 year old does, he bails and tells his stepbrother to "get in his civic and fuck off".
You goofed it on this one mum and dad.
As always, we get the input of the people with The People's Response.
Question 2: Am I right to feel screwed by Christmas?
The classic Christmas move of "we're only buying for the kids."
This question hit home for me as I too have been the victim of this Christmas conundrum. It's a difficult situation that requires a very serious and bold response.
We also put our finger on the pulse with The People's Response.
