We're back, after a month's hiatus, blame Jimmy. This month, as it is December, Jimmy and Jen discuss the novelisation of the latter's favourite Christmas movie, Home Alone. They discuss the differences, obviously as that's the point of the podcast but they also finally answer the age old question... with all the kids in the movie, just who are the parents to who?

My money is on the latter but at the time, I didn't really give it much thought, I was too...
