What happens when the Reel Debaters go Secret Santa shopping… for their favourite movie and TV characters?

Bad ideas, inspired choices, and a lot of judgment. In Episode 307, the cast debates the perfect Secret Santa gifts if they were shopping for iconic characters, deciding who deserves something thoughtful and who’s getting a wildly inappropriate gag gift.

Then it’s back to business with sharp takes on Knives Out, Wake Up Dead Man, reactions to the Jake Paul fight, Bugonia, and more.
