Or will Lisa have to team up with the ghost of Lucille Ball to teach them a lesson? All that and Hawaii in this week's podcast!

It's time for the final Xmas of the '90s, so we welcome back Luke Savage, writer for Jacobin and the cohost of the podcast Michael And Us! The school is closed thanks to Bart's broken butt, and that somehow leads to a parody of Furby almost destroying the holidays! Listen along for some of the show's weirdest celebrity appearances and one of its darkest jokes ever!
