Happy almost Christmas and almost Hanukkah. Did you know that Hanukkah and Christmas,

the first night of Hanukkah, is Christmas Day? Yeah, I heard that and that's pretty unusual,

right? It happens every great once in a while. I don't love it. I don't love it, to be honest with you,

because we are a blended household in many different ways. I guess I'm a blended human title insofar

as, as I think I've said many times in the show,

dad was raised Jewish, although he doesn't really practice now.

Mom was raised Catholic, doesn't really practice.

So I was basically raised feeling guilty for everything.

We celebrated Hanukkah and Christmas as I was growing up. And in my you know, with Aaron and the kids, we recognize

Hanukkah and to a small degree celebrate it and of course Christmas and don't love when

they overlap like this. Not my favorite. What's bad about it? What's bad about the overlap?

Because then neither one of the, well, Christmas, first of all, Christmas overshadows everything,

which I, fine. I mean, I get it. That makes sense. But then Hanukkah doesn't have the space to, like, be its own thing, to, like, be its own person, if you will. And that, that kind of bums me out. But it's fine. It's also, you know, how do you delineate the presents and what's from Santa and what isn't and what's, you know, Hanukkah and what

isn't and it's, I don't know, it's fine.

It's just not my favorite.

But you know what is my favorite?

Doing member specials.

And we did a member special, uh, and even before the last recording of the regular episodes,

but we did what is probably the worst promo for that member special.

When we recorded, it actually happened, I believe, at the very end of the episode and through

the magic of editing and Marco, he shimmied it up to the front. But we're going to make an attempt

of doing a better copy this time. So let me tell you, guess what? There's a new member special.
