Not That German - 41 - Home Alone with Adam and Al
play

12/20/22 • 49 min

Christmas came early! Or at least our Christmas episode did. Adam and Al forget their French literature as they discuss 1990's Home Alone. They mention Scarface, Better Call Saul, and Greg Sestero.
Is it the Star Wars Holiday Special? No, but we still mention the franchise a lot. We moved up our Christmas episode so you can hear it BEFORE all that family time on Christmas Day - or during. No judgment. We'll be back in 2023 with more episodes (but less holiday cheer).
