Who's the best Christmas movie dad of all time?
Welcome back to Ho-Ho-Who’s Your Daddy… Really? for Part 2 of our Christmas Special, where your hosts Joe Dehuai and Max Jones put festive fatherhood on trial. This time, we’re ranking all the dads of Christmas cinema - from absolute deadbeats to the big man himself, Father Christmas.
In this episode, we tackle the perennial question of whether Die Hard is actually a Christmas film (and why this argument may never die), reveal the surprising reason Joe once watched Elf in October, and explain why Richard Curtis needs to be stopped before he does any more damage the British culture. Along the way, we unpack the hidden meaning of Chekhov’s Duckbus and ask what truly makes a great Christmas movie dad — emotional availability, gift-giving prowess, or just not disappearing halfway through Act Two.
It’s a festive ranking, a cinematic reckoning, and another deep dive into dads, films, and seasonal nonsense that spirals exactly where you’d expect.
Put the mince pie down, stop arguing with your family, and join us for Part 2 of our Christmas descent.
