Why are people so bad at conversations?

This episode starts off festive and quickly turns into a surprisingly strong opinion about movies, including a few Christmas favorites you might not expect and a brief but passionate conversation about why some beloved actors just do not hit the same anymore. From there, things take a turn into the real holiday struggle: talking to other humans. We get into why Christmas parties feel so awkward, the subtle conversation habits that quietly ruin a good interaction, and how everyone seems to forget how to talk the moment they’re holding a paper plate of cookies. If you’ve ever left a gathering replaying a conversation in your head or wondering why small talk feels so painful, this one’s for you. Festive, slightly unhinged, and way too honest, this episode is basically a survival guide for holiday conversations with a side of movie opinions you may strongly disagree with.
