Mike and Jay take a break while climbing Mt. Everest to talk about Everest. They are on their way up to Mr. Plinkett's house on the top. Even though he climbed down in a recent episode to kill them. Now I guess he went back up and wants his VCR fixed. Hey. He lives up there, what do you want him to do stay in a motel. He can't afford that. But he can afford to spend lots of money trying to fix a VCR to watch an old TV show from the 80's.

Mike and Jay continue to sit on Mt. Everest as they discuss a bunch of movies they've seen so far this year that they haven't discussed already.

Mike and Jay finally reach the top of Mt. Everest to fix Mr. Plinkett's VCR or whatever. Unfortunately, Mr. Plinkett is nowhere to be found so the guys are forced to talk about movies. It's Creed and Victor Frankenstein.

Merry Krampus, everyone. Mike and Jay talk about the latest Christmas-themed horror film Krampus, as well as all the shitty no budget Krampus knock-offs that have come out this year. Also, Mr. Plinkett's back.

It's episode 100 of Half in the Bag. Mike, Jay, and their new friend Kris Kringle celebrate this momentous event by participating in a normal episode and see the newest Star Warts movie. Lightsabers.
