Summary

This is a special release of our previously donors-only 2017 holiday episode. Merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah and happy Kwanza from Adam and Ben! When a bumbling inventor gives a live animal to his son as a present, obeying the strict rules for its care becomes a challenge. But when the town is overrun by the animal’s mutated progeny, it’ll take more than breaking the rules of flash photography to save the town from their mischievous wrath. Is Gremlins in the Back to the Future cinematic universe? Which film achieves "Peak Cates"? Is the provenance of Mrs Deagle’s ceramics evil? It’s the episode that chooses the fun path to death! 🖖GET TICKETS TO GREATEST GEN KHAN II: STAR TREK III🖖 Support the production of The Greatest Generation.

0:00.0	Welcome to a very special episode, a holiday episode, of the greatest generation.
0:24.8	The Star Trek Podcast by two guys who are a little bit embarrassed to have a Star Trek
0:28.7	Podcast. I'm out of pranika. I'm Ben Harrison and this is not even going to be about Star Trek, is it?
0:34.4	I think it's canonical us in the way that this is sort of a, this is an embarrassing
0:42.4	admission of mine. This, this, this film that we're about to cover is my favorite holiday
0:47.8	movie, Ben, and it, and I'm not sure if many people know that. It's not a very popular
0:54.4	choice. It makes me wonder what your favorite holiday movie or movies are for the month of
1:00.5	December. Do you have any? Die Hard 2 obviously. The best of the Die Hard movies. I'll die on that hill.
1:11.5	I feel like Die Hard 2 is when Die Hard realized it was Die Hard. Die Hard 2 also canonical
1:18.4	trek for the involvement of one column, meaning as random airline pilot. Yeah. We have
1:26.6	started a tradition of watching a very Murray Christmas on Christmas Day. Do you see what I see?

1:54.5	popped into my head like, oh, that's what that is. Wordplay that's so tack sharp, it just goes
2:00.5	through you completely. I don't know. It's, it's good because it's not, it's not sentimental in a
2:08.0	schmaltzy way. It's sentimental in an affecting way. I've yet to see it. Maybe I should see it.
2:14.1	It's terrific. There's like the highlight is when Clooney shows up and sings a song called
2:21.7	Santa Claus wants some love in. Oh boy. It's a real treat. You just sprinkle on a little Clooney.
2:28.2	It makes everything better. Yeah. I mean, we do as much Hanukkah as Christmas if not more in my
2:35.2	family now. So it's kind of like the one really Christmasy thing that that my wife will buy into.
2:44.1	I've prepared myself a holiday beverage here, Adam. I'm having some delicious spiked eggnog with some
