Ho ho ho. 'Twas the Saturday before Christmas, so we collected a bunch of stuff from Craigslist Free and attempted to re-gift it. We tried to call into a psychic hotline but they wouldn't accept Franky's credit card, so instead we called up 1-800-FAT-GIRL and asked the phone sex operator to give us a psychic reading (41:15).

Music as always by the master, Rich Devletian.
