The fellas highlight their favorite movies that have an "A" as the second letter of the title.

After some vocal warmups, the fellas recap Dick Stensland's last day in the office (and among the living), including all the fun a person can have with a banker's box. There's also some Watcha Watchin', we cast a great actress, and delve a bit deeper into Zumbo's Obsession.

Jack uses a telephone, Ginger delivers a line like a boss, and the fellas... wait a minute... Who the hell is Ginger???

It's the Confidentially Speaking Christmas Special! Sweet as a candy cane, cold as the North Pole, and packed with more cheesy holiday humor than you can shake Bruce Vilanch at. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!
