We're just a few short days from Christmas, so in this episode, we get a surprise mystery guest dropping by the store to pick up a very special watch, then the boys tap in with their favorite gift picks – one practical choice, and one proper grail. Maybe these are gifts for loved ones, or we're just projecting and we're really just shopping for ourselves this year. And on that note, who do you think would be the most difficult to shop for in the Christmas season?

As always, thanks for all your support this year — we're thrilled to have you along for the ride. Questions, comments, or feedback can all be sent to [email protected].
