75 years after George Bailey tried to lasso the moon, this Frank Capra staple has cemented itself on the Mount Rushmore of winter classics. To celebrate, Danny and Speedy honor one of their all-time favorites by diving into its fittingly underdog history (Did you know it was once in the public domain?), lovingly nitpicking unique aspects of the movie (i.e. "How do they have a retractable pool inside their small-town gymnasium?"), and evaluating how much this heartwarming tale qualifies as a Christmas movie. In addition, Danny shares his thoughts on the new Beatles documentary series, "Get Back," as one of the few people who actually watched all seven hours. If you have comments, questions, or personal misheard-lyric stories, you can send them to [email protected]
