Why Grown-Ups Miss the Chaos of Christmas
Update: 2025-12-13
Description
When did giving one perfect gift become harder than wrapping a dozen? This episode unpacks the shift from childhood Christmas wonder to adult gift anxiety — and why some of us secretly miss the mess.
Shane Hewitt reflects on simpler holidays, the pressure to make one meaningful gift count, and what it says about how our needs and memories evolve. Co-host Ryan O'Donnell shares a vivid story about a Game Boy and the moment he knew Santa was real. Plus: a garage-built time machine, the most chaotic time travel movies, and a philosophical debate on whether to go forward or back in time. Discover the joy, nostalgia, and questions we carry into the holiday season.
