This week on Films and Fermentation, we’re stuffing your stocking with Christmas Classics vs. Their Remakes and seeing who ends up on the naughty list. We’re pitting the originals like It’s a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, and The Grinch against their shiny, CGI’d, studio-noted descendants. Are the remakes holiday miracles or cinematic lumps of coal wrapped in nostalgia bait? Expect eggnog-fueled rants, hot takes, and more bah-humbugs than a Scrooge reboot. So grab a Christmas beer, cozy up by the TV glow, and let the festive film fight begin!

"Tonight we’re raising a glass to two holiday underdogs: the scrappy little TV special that almost didn’t get made, A Charlie Brown Christmas, and the scrappy little podcast that also probably shouldn’t have, Films and Fermentation. Sixty years ago, Charlie Brown taught us the true meaning of Christmas; five years ago, we taught you the true meaning of “maybe that was one beer too many.” In this episode we’re unwrapping nostalgia, grooving to Vince Guaraldi in our heads, and asking why a cartoon from 1965 still hits us harder than most modern Christmas movies. We’ll talk sad little trees, jazz-fueled existential crises, and which Peanuts character each of us most resembles after three holiday ales. So grab your security blanket, spike your eggnog, and join us as we celebrate 60 years of Charlie Brown, 5 years of this ridiculous show, and at least 1 year too many of pretending we know what we’re talking about.”

"This week on Films and Fermentation, we’re playing everyone’s favorite game: Real or Fake Movie Plots! Can you tell the difference between a legitimate Hollywood script and the fever dream of a screenwriter on a caffeine bender? From shark-filled tornados to time-traveling cheerleaders, we’re diving into the absurdity that makes us love movies even more. Grab a drink, take your best guess, and prepare to be baffled by what actually got greenlit. It’s movie madness, beer-fueled confusion, and 100% Hollywood nonsense!”

"This week on Films and Fermentation, we’re heading to a galaxy far, far away to celebrate 45 years of The Empire Strikes Back — the sequel that taught us family reunions can get really awkward. Join our band of rebels as we toast to lightsabers, lost hands, and the greatest plot twist since finding out your favorite brewery is switching to non-alcoholic beer. We’ll break down why this icy, emotional space opera still reigns supreme. Expect bad Yoda impressions, strong drinks, and stronger opinions. Grab your blaster and your bourbon — it’s time to strike back with style!

"This week on Films and Fermentation, we salute our veterans the only way we know how — by arguing over which war movies actually get the military right and which ones couldn’t pass basic training. From Saving Private Ryan’s gut-wrenching realism to G.I. Joe’s cartoon physics, we’re putting Hollywood on trial with beer in hand and sarcasm locked and loaded. Expect equal parts respect and ridiculousness. We’ll honor the troops, roast the scripts, and maybe learn what a chain of command actually is.”

"It’s election season at Films and Fermentation, and democracy has never been this fuzzy! This week, we’re recasting our favorite political movies — from The American President to Napoleon Dynamite — entirely with Muppets. Kermit’s running for office, Miss Piggy’s demanding equal screen time, and Gonzo’s foreign policy involves chickens. We’re mixing politics, puppets, and pints for one chaotic campaign trail of laughs. So grab your ballot and your beer — it’s time to elect the Muppetastic administration in Hollywood history!

Tune in before the podcast mysteriously cuts out mid-sentence… and remember — don’t split up, don’t look behind you, and definitely don’t stop listening!
