Gary and Brian are dressed like Benedictine Monks, Gary because it’s a chilly 63 degrees outside! Gary is also wearing his holiday plaid eyeglasses.

Gary recaps his Christmas get together with fellow teachers, including a second place finish in trivia thanks to his instant recognition of Brooke Shields.

Brian describes his visit to Dollar Tree on Sunday night, where he lost all faith in humanity. Gary and Brian discuss working in retail “back in the day,” and how much different stores are stocked and staffed nowadays.

A mid-life crises discussion breaks out among the boys, as Brian contemplates balancing nostalgia versus the future. Gary gives a heartfelt admission about what he knows now that he wished he knew then.

A quick recap of the World Cup final between Argentina and France, Fox’s handling of the trophy presentation, and a quick NFL discussion about Colts quarterback Matt Ryan needing to retire following the epic 33-point collapse against the Vikings.

Finally, the boys fulfill a Christmas wish for dedicated listener, Jay M., by serenading him with their own karaoke rendition of “O Holy Night!”
