2022/12/06

In a Film to Table first, we’re talking about a film both of us have not seen and probably do not want to see again. This week we’re chatting about the 1996 classic(?) Jingle All the Way, but mostly mall culture, growing up in the 90s, and our fear of ball pits. Put some sugar cookies in the oven, grab your headphones and join us!

The Chinese food may be terrible, but the grits are flowing this week as we head to Beechum County, Alabama, where we encounter a judge who's aching to put us in jail, an idiot who wants to fight us for two hundred dollars, slaughtered pigs, giant loud whistles, no sleep in five days, no money, a dress code problem, and a little murder case which in the balance holds the lives of two innocent kids, not to mention your (stomps floor) biological clock.
