Binge Buddies Holiday Special Christas Carol
Welcome to the Binge Buddies Holiday Special — where instead of watching one wholesome Christmas movie together like normal people, we each locked ourselves into separate Dickensian dimensions. Bryan Dressel went full heart and felt with The Muppet Christmas Carol, embracing Michael Caine’s Oscar-worthy seriousness opposite a frog and a rat. It’s warm. It’s musical. It’s probably the most emotionally stable choice anyone made. Matt “Zombie Dog” Dykes chose the razor-sharp sarcasm of the Blackadder Christmas Carol episode, because nothing says holiday cheer like British cynicism and a moral lesson that might actually make things worse. Joel Dewitte… selected the Jim Carrey motion-capture A Christmas Carol. Yes, that one. The uncanny valley rollercoaster where everyone looks like wax figures that escaped a haunted museum. Bold choice, Joel. Deeply concerning. We’ll unpack that. And Ryan Lootens rounded things out with Scrooged, where Bill Murray discovers the meaning of Christmas through corporate greed, explosions, and pure 80s chaos. Four Scrooges. Four vibes. One timeless story about a man who desperately needed therapy and instead got haunted into personal growth. The chains are clanking. The snow is falling. And someone please check on Joel. Let’s get festive.
