The holidays have a way of exposing what’s really happening in your marriage. In this episode of the Married Game Podcast, Keith and Jesse break down why Thanksgiving and Christmas often trigger tension, resentment, and conflict — and why it’s rarely about the holiday itself. From unspoken expectations to emotional maturity and tone, this conversation reveals the patterns that quietly sabotage connection.

They unpack how intention, effort, and leadership show up during high-pressure moments, why tone matters more than words, and how small mindset shifts can completely change the holiday experience for both partners. If holidays tend to bring friction instead of closeness, this episode will help you understand why — and what to do differently.
