This week, Dave and Meg load up on various leftover nogs and head back to 1983 to watch it's second highest-grossing movie: Terms of Endearment with guest comedian Sam Burns!  We do a Canada Corner first half and go over a deadly toilet fire and a guy who landed a dead 767 on a racetrack before diving into a movie about a gin witch, her problematic daughter and the daughter's flappy husband who is actually full-on named Flap.  Good times!
