This week the Grouches are looking back at that time with the "Wonderful World of Disney" original movie, "The Christmas Tree." Listen to see what they think about this mid-90's made-for-TV movie starring that one guy from "Weekend at Bernie's." No. The other guy.

Trav has disappeared for the week, and left Paul and Zach to cover Goin' South on their own.

Until then, enjoy this episode!
