Every family swears they’re not like the Griswolds, but if you’ve lived through even one chaotic holiday, you know the truth, you might be lying to yourself. In this episode of Undressed Conversations, we break down Christmas Vacation scene by scene and prove why it might be the most accurate holiday movie ever made. From overhyped traditions, credit-card Christmases, awkward in-law dynamics, Cousin-Eddie-level relatives, and that inevitable holiday meltdown, we connect every unforgettable movie moment to our own 30 years of Christmas stories. If you’ve ever tried to engineer the perfect holiday, bought gifts on credit, fought expectations, or quietly wondered why your family feels like a comedy waiting to happen, this episode is going to feel way too real.

And in After Hours, we go even deeper, sharing the behind-the-scenes holiday moments the Griswolds definitely didn’t show, including the money fights, the intimacy droughts, and the private chaos that every couple lives through but no one talks about.

If Christmas Vacation felt like a documentary to you too, welcome home. 🎄🔥
