Hey everybody. I just wanted to remind you that we have a Patreon. If you are in a position to support one of your favorite podcasts, find us at patreon.com slash why are dads. You are able to do so. There are bonus episodes that come out almost weekly and I think you'll enjoy it. They're kind of just conversational chats between Sarah and I talking about things.

Sometimes dad related, sometimes not, you know, it's like just tuning in to our friendship.

More or less.

If you're not able to do so, we totally understand.

It is rough out there financially. These are rough, rough times. We're just happy to have you along for the ride. All right. Let's get into this. Hello, Sarah Marshall. Hello, Alex Deed. Here we are. It is the end of the year. I'm very proud of us.

You've had a big year. I had a big year. I think all of us had a big year. I'm very proud of us. You've had a big year. I had a big year. I think all of us had a big year. All of us had a big year.

There's this thing happening on Twitter right now. I don't know if this is important anywhere but

Twitter where someone who has a relatively small account was like, has anyone

noticed that, I guess she must be pronouncing it like Hilaria Baldwin, that Alec Baldwin's

wife has been pretending to be Spanish, like pretending to be from Spain for like 10 years,

and then had all this evidence. And you're like, yeah, she's pretending to be from

Spain all right. And then she made a statement about it where she was like, I'm not from Spain,

but blah, blah, blah. The culture is very important to me and my family and we're raising the

children bilingually, all this stuff. And I was just, I was thinking about it and I was tweeting,

like, maybe, you know, because the only person this reminds me of is Mandy Patinkin and the Princess Bride.

And I was like, maybe Mandy Patinkin was also having a hard year in in 1987 and found solace in doing a Spanish accent, you know, with great conviction. And then I was like, is it presumptuous to say that someone's having a hard year? And then I was like, no, everyone is having a hard year. And if anyone isn't having a hard year, there's something horribly wrong with them and that they're like, you could only be having a good year if you're profiteering off of this and don't feel remorse about it. And that's, I think, a very small category of people. So yeah, I don't think you're doing that. Right. I guess everyone's having a big Hilaria Baldwin year. Well, no, I guess she's been doing it for a really long time, though, so that destroys my earlier

point. I don't know. I think it's just a year when maybe there are more fake Spanish accents than

we started out within America. Let's put it that way. You talk in this episode about the movie

Moonstruck, which we're about to talk about. And you talk about why you consider it like a

Christmas movie, but like why was it important to bring the year to a close with Moonstruck?

And then also just tell us who we bring the year to a close with. Well, I felt like Moonstruck was a

nice excuse to have Claire Comstock Gay, aka Madame Clairvoyant, which is the name she uses for
