In this episode, Colin talks about two great Christmas stories: Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol and It’s a Wonderful Life. These are not just great holidays tales, they say something important about the class struggle. It’s a Wonderful Life, especially, resonates with people in the 21st century struggling to get by. And because, you know, it’s about the American Dream.
