This episode looks at how Jingle All the Way turned the hunt for a Turbo Man doll into sharp holiday satire. We explore the real shopping frenzies that inspired it, the production choices that shaped its chaotic style, and why it has grown into a seasonal favorite. We also ask whether Schwarzenegger, Sinbad, and full holiday desperation create an even better viewing experience when stoned.
