Office Christmas Party came out in 2016 and made $114 million at the box office on a budget of $45 million. It does not have a high IMDB (5.8) or Rotten Tomatoes score (40% Fresh) with either critics or the audience, but it did pretty well with this two-person audience in November 2022. Listen along as Stephen Douglas and Kyle Koster discuss whether you really need to bring an escort to a work event.

The movie feels a little forgotten, but was enjoyable to revisit. It features a huge cast full of notable actors including Jason Bateman, Oliva Munn, Jennifer Aniston, Kate McKinnon, Courtney B. Vance, Randall Park, Sam Richardson, Rob Corddry, Jamie Chung, and the since-cancelled TJ Miller.
