A Christmas Story (1983)

You’ll shoot your eye out! The movie that makes 24 hours seem like a single watch. A Christmas Story has been revered as the quintessential holiday film while others call it over rated and pandering. This movie still taught us about licking cold poles, major awards, changing tires, haggling, a football is a terrible Christmas gift, where to eat on Christmas in case of emergency, and the importance of being honest about what you really want in life while lying about everything else. Luckily we got a compass in the stock.  •0:00:00-  Introductions/Reviews/Chats •0:07:00- Pertinent movie details •0:11:45- Memories of first viewing •0:16:00  - Critical and fan reviews•0:23:00 - Scene by scene breakdown •1:17:45- Modern day ratings —————————————————————— **Get 20% OFF at Manscaped + Free Shipping with promo code CONFUSED at MANSCAPED.com  —————————————————————— **Cedar Ridge Distillery-  Go check out our sponsor and order some whiskey.  http://cedarridgewhiskey.com —————————————————————— **Every link you could need from us.   Http://confusedbreakfast.com —————————————————————— **Give us a call and leave a voicemail about your thoughts of the show!  319.804.9596 —————————————————————— **Link to our friend Kyle Wyatt, who did the Mortal Kombat/Confused Breakfast yell.  Get more info on him and order a Mortal Kombat related cameo https://direct.me/MORTALKOMBATVOICE —————————————————————— **Also, we have a Patreon.  If you are enjoying the podcast, want to support us and enjoy some extra perks and bonus content, check it out at http://patreon.com/confusedbreakfast and speaking of Patreon, our highest tier supporters get mentioned in the actual episode and in the liner notes.  Dane, Joel, Tony B, Nick Merulla, Elisha, Camden Griffith, Francisco Rivera, Cameron Jay, Keerlana, Jordon, BigBigAndy, Bud Larsen, Anita Richard, Travis Hunziker, Bryan Hernandez, Nick Fulkerson, Cale James, Greg Jackson, Mr and Mrs Roommate, Jason Davis, Daniel Skaggs, Emilio Perez, Shaun Dixon, Skyler Brunssen, Jordan Hooten, Brynna Misener, Willie Cox III, Jewel Lewis, Joseph Thomas, Marshall G, Ryker Garrison, Mitch Cavanaugh, Ryan Carlton, Josh Miller, Conor, Macy, Jason Botsford, Stephen Moore, Chris Prior, Paul DeAro, Jason Hahn, BuckarooBonsly, Jeff Spencer, Moth Maiden Creations, Travis Scanlan, Erik Hein, Michael Hodde, Gary McCarthy, Corey Vaughn, Damien Zemek, Jukes of Hazard, Ranger Rick and Suebaloo, Mark Prior, Zachary Hearon, Eric Murrieta, Dallas B, Tim, Kitty VVitch Chaos, Revis, David Waggoner, Jeni Wilson, Tim Nash, Mike Zachar, Duane Van, Zachary Moore, Robert Vens, Pit Take BBQ, Joey Piemonte, Kool Derocher, David Waters, Allen Cross, Shawn, ZerophoniK, Amy N, Ryan, Andrea Santo, Dakota Holland, Samuel Miller, David Gould, Channing Rankin, Anthony Stone, SAM, John Devlin, Zachary Jones, Seth Murray, Tina Hansen, Matthew Brewer, Rolland and Julie, Matthew Schaffner, Leeloo Dallas Multipass, Johua Goodman, Lance Davis, Jesse Anderson, Biggie Brands and Mark Rosshirt.  You are the best.  You will always be number 1 in our hearts.   Thank you.    Learn more about your ad choices.
