For the final episode of the year, Hayne rounds Joey and Robbie up for some Christmas talk, picking up where they left off last year in "Baby, It's Cold Outside (EP13)," the last episode these three talked Christmas for an hour. Today they talk whether or not the brilliance of the movie Four Christmases is all due to Vince Vaughn's humor. They deliberate on whether Santa and elaborate gift-giving conflicts with the purity of the true Gospel story, and consider if the German tradition of “night of Saint Nick” may be a better option. The three go in to a bit of the history of that tradition and reflect on Christmases past, how their parents implemented Santa into their childhood christmases and how they have walked this season out with their kids currently as parents themselves. They also manage to fit in a conversation about a scientific study on guys' need for quality “guy-time.”
