The Gargyle Podcast Christmas Spect-adequate 2018 - part 2

Having not found the true meaning of Christmas...movies...by the end of part 1, The Chimerican and I used The Gargyle Signal to call upon the friends of The Gargyle to aide us in our quest!! And now, in the acceptable conclusion to The Gargyle Podcast's Christmas Spect-adequate, join me, The Chimerican, and the friends of The Gargyle as we find the true meaning of Christmas...movies!!

Since so many friends answered our call for help so much more than expected, part two of the Christmas Spect-adequate kind of ended up being a little ridiculously long. In fact, the episode was so long that it was not able to be distributed from where it is hosted to the other podcast platforms. So, along with the full episode, you can find each segment below:
