Corbin and Matt talk about 'MIRACLE ON 34th STREET, a Sentimental Christmas Classic about Department Stores and the supremac y of the suburban lifestyle. We recorded it a few weeks ago so Corbin forgot specific topics but he suspects they talk about the emergence of consumer culture in America, the eternal American Christmas Disconnection, and the movie's oddly cynical edge.
