Strap in, Christmas clowns — the lads are lighting up the neighborhood and diving into National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, the holiday classic that proves no one commits harder to Christmas than Clark Griswold. Chevy Chase is in peak form as America’s most determined dad, Randy Quaid’s Cousin Eddie shows up exactly when you don’t want him to, and we break down why this movie remains an annual tradition despite (or because of) its total chaos. Derek’s got the day off, but past guest Ian joins us to help survive the season, talk holiday expectations, exploding turkeys, and the true meaning of family — just remember, if things start going wrong, it’s all part of the Griswold experience.
