Description

This week on Drinks and a Movie Podcast, Malia joins me as we revisit Disney’s 1994 holiday hit, The Santa Clause. Tim Allen’s unlikely transformation from regular dad to North Pole icon has become a seasonal staple—but does it still hold up decades later? We break down the film’s comedy, heart, and surprisingly dark fairy-tale edges, and talk about why it continues to resonate with holiday audiences.

To keep things warm and festive, we’re pairing the movie with a pour of Old Overholt 12 Year Old Cask Strength Rye Whiskey. We dive into the nose, palate, and finish, discuss how the extra proof changes the experience, and decide whether this classic rye’s long-aged, high-octane revival belongs on your winter sipping list. 

It’s holiday nostalgia, grown-up spirits, and a reminder that sometimes the best way to watch a Christmas movie is with a strong rye in hand.
