Hallelujah! Where’s the Tylenol? It’s a very YMH Christmas, and the studio is lit up like Clark Griswold’s house because comedy legend Chevy Chase stops by! Tom and Christina unwrap holiday trauma, German Christmas music meltdowns, Santa vs. Baby Jesúska, dangerous European elevators, and the evolution of internet weirdos. Then Chevy joins to talk SNL, Three Amigos, the making of Vacation, Forrest Gump almost being his role, improv secrets, wild celebrity encounters, and why Richard Pryor was untouchable. Grab your eggnog and your wolf coat—this one is a Christmas classic.
