Description

After a long absence and travels, Jim and Mickey are back, with a lament of how the entire week after Thanksgiving has turned into some sort of giant Retail Hannukah: Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday, Whatever’s Left Wednesday and Stop Creating New Faux-lidays Thursday. We return to the relentless big-budget ominousness of HBO’s Westworld, mock the friendship-wrecking holiday gift ideas from Goop, the lifestyle site run by Gwenyth Paltrow -- more or less the official piñata of The Jim and Mickey Show – and conclude with a detailed dissection of the unnerving theological implications of Frosty the Snowman.
