YKS Premium S38E7: Jingle Smells w/ Chris James
It’s a Jingle Smells Miracle! Chris James, former standup comedian, is back to discuss a holiday movie featuring some of the greats of the form – including Brad Stine, and well, I guess Jim Bruer. Maybe Victoria Jackson did stand-up before SNL, I’m not totally sure. But with those stars, how could you go wrong? Perhaps by enlisting the help of Mike Huckabee, Eric Bischoff, Sean Hannity, the guy from Dukes of Hazzard and WWE’s Hornswoggle to tell the hamfisted tale of a garbage man who steals action figures of a canceled movie star to give to kids. And letting Eric Roberts pack his own cooler. Anyway, we had more fun talking about this than the producer of Michael Knowles’ podcast had starring in it, so give it a listen while you play with your favorite toys! Merry Smellmas!

I'm only about 11 minutes in, but this episode is the real Christmas Miracle
Release the good morning good morning files
i heard TNA switched to WoW
My favorite of Eric Robert’s filmography are his soft core-adjacent movies with Shannon Tweed. Makes me wanna lay on my milking table 💦
Makes me miss Good Morning, Good Morning so much seeing you all together ❤️
All of my family is dead so I’m very grateful for my handsome parasocial podcast pamily, Kissy Prissmas gang 🎄
One of the things I fucking hate about Christmas movies are the characters bemoaning the fact that they wouldn't have Christmas without presents. "We were afraid that we wouldn't have Christmas this year!" You can celebrate by hanging out with your friends and family and just having fun, fuck off. (I don't know why I'm so mad.)
I'm so glad Mike's here :)
My mom’s corny ass Methodist pastor did a Die Hard is a Christmas movie joke like last year. The octogenarians loved it!
I really enjoyed this one

My favorite part is when they dunked on the chuds!

Merry Christmas y'all
hi mike, i watch these sometimes
Weird choice for Howell to use his natural voice for the new theme song
The fingering/tonguing segment is exactly why I pay $3 more for the Squeeze Louise tier
Your username got me to genuinely laugh out loud
Michaelmas is September 29. I left a voicemail wishing Mike a happy Michaelmas one year and I've always assumed the transcripting thing just couldn't handle it.
