Merry Christmas, America. We're so happy to celebrate today with you, and we have a blockbuster show ahead. We're answering your fan mail questions, and we're revealing our naughty and nice lists. Plus, we're doing our biggest and best secret Santa gift exchange ever. But first, time for the fastest. First up, are you sick of getting your house ready for Christmas?
See, I told you it was green. Don't anybody move.
One woman has solved your problems. Instead of packing up every specimen on your tree, try wrapping your decorated tree in plastic wrap to skip the holiday cleanup and reuse it next year. Let's go to you, Judge Jeanine. Is this an acceptable form of decristmasing?
Absolutely. As I get older, I buy into it even more. When I think about the years when my kids were little, it It was like every room in the house had to be decorated. I'm at the point now where the simpler things are, the better. If I can wrap that tree, but the problem is it's a really big tree, and just save the ordinance, because by the time you put them in the box, and then next year, you take them out, how many have been broken? It's crazy.
This only works on plastic Christmas trees. It's not the real thing.
I'm not a real outdoorsy type, but I think trees die, especially in plastic wrap for a year. We have what I've been told is a very sad tree situation, not enough ordinance. I just said it was minimalist because I didn't want to really do a lot. But we even save ordinance, and we pay for Manhattan mini-storage. It has ordinance. So I'm wasting money because I don't have a house. I don't have a garage to put the ordinance in. So we have to have a storage unit for stuff like that. You know, Jessica- It's the new golden age. I will be bringing them to Judge your name.
I will be bringing them to Judge your name. I will be bringing them to judge your name. You'll get a house soon.
Dana, shrink wrapping your tree. I love the innovation. I love a new hack like that. I have friends, the Whitlox, they put their tree up the day after Halloween, November first. They love Christmas. The only thing I don't like about this is one of my fondest memories of the Christmas tree was putting the ordinance on together. If it's already done, I understand the convenience and the efficiency. I like that, working with my sister to figure out who had the better specimen. Tires me.
I always make myself invisible when it's time to take down Christmas.
Well, unfortunately, that's not something for me, but this is pure and simple communism at its finest. You don't wrap anything in saran wrap and celebrate it. It's un-American as it gets. If you're going to take the time to decorate the tree, let everybody enjoy it. That's not enjoyable. But let me guess, all the couches have plastic on it, too. There's enough. I'm so glad that we have a new administration that this woke stuff will just go away. I have a tree in every room in my house against my will, but my family does not play in my office. Ingrid and George set up a grinch tree for me. Again, without my consent, but we go with it. There's a tree in every room. There's even bedroom Christmas trees.
Is it like electric green, your grinch tree?
Yes, it's grinched out for me. It would say pimped It's grinched out for me. But my family loves Christmas so much that the decoration are house. You can see them for miles.
I'm going to put a tree in your office because I know you love it so much.
Yeah, please come to my office.
Can I be? I want to be there when it happens.
I'll have Johnny deliver it. How's that?
Johnny's always welcome.
Up next. Is it ever okay to re-gift around the holidays? Well, an etiquette expert says, Go for it as long as you follow these five rules. Be sure it makes sense. Presentation is everything. Think of it as a renewed gift. Don't re-gift within the same group and be honest. Do you think we could follow these rules and get away with re-gifting?
Listen, we're men, Jesse. We know that we are never allowed to re-gift anything because we won't be able to say it was the thought that counts or we felt like this was a good gift for you. It goes against everything alpha men like us stand for. We will be criticized and shunned publicly. He couldn't afford a real gift. Plus, what am I going to re-gift? Size 17 socks For me, this is just not... Everything I get is too big. If I regift to anyone, they'll be like, I feel like this was for you, and you didn't like it. Then the word will get back to the person who got it from me. He'll be like, What happened with the Argyll size 17 socks I got for you? Why did you give it away to Judge Jeanine?
I regift a lot of stuff that I get at Fox, like the Fox News merch that we sell at the Christmas store.
You regift it?
To family members?
Yes, to Emma's side of the family. My family doesn't want Fox stuff.
I got burned so badly one time because I gave a speech and I got an award. As part of the award, I got an iPad, like a mini iPad thing, but I already had one. It wasn't a Christmas gift, but I remember I was at dinner with Peter. It was a Thursday night, and all of a sudden, it was somebody significant in my life's birthday the following day or two days later. I was like, Oh, my gosh, I don't have time. But they don't have an iPad. I'm going to send them that iPad.
Had your name on it.
It was engraved.
I knew it.
So thoughtful and annoying.
I had to call and I said, I'm embarrassed. But you know what? It was my dad and he was cool.
Oh, thank God.
There you go, dad. Do you ever get caught regifting?
No, but I've never really regifted anything besides a bottle of champagne, which I feel like everybody knows is communal. If you're going to give a bottle, especially if it has packaging, like VovClico does all the fun holiday stuff or whatever. People in your life who like that thing and think of it as an art piece of some kind, or it'll be really special. I feel like you just have a table with gifts like that, and anyone who's coming in and out can take it like, Oh, we have to go to so and so's for dinner. We have to do this, that. So I'm cool with that. But I've not gone big like an iPad, but I feel like your dad would like to have a Dana iPad.
He was cool about it.
Sure. He was probably happy he didn't spend money on him.
I would have been like, Where's the heart? It's supposed to be love Dana. There was supposed to be a heart on top of it. It was ridiculous. I'll call Best Buy and get to the bottom with his dad.
The National Association of So and So really loves you, dad.
You could have played it half. Jeanine?
You know what I do? If I get gifts that I'm not going to use, I have a closet and I put them in and I say, Okay, I'll re-gift them. I went in the closet and some of the stuff has been in there for five, six, seven, eight years. You never re-gift them. You do with alcohol, right? But all that other I end up giving away just not for a gift. Even though you think you're going to re-gift it, you really don't re-gift it. And I've got it stuff in my office.
Could I come see the closet?
Yes, you can.
Do you have fancy candles in there?
Oh, my. I have so many candles.
No more candles, everyone.
No more candles? All right. You heard it. Candles are off. Finally, the holidays bring people together, but not without a fee. A woman has started a debate after sharing that she wants to charge her sister and her family for staying in her home for Christmas. After past visits resulted in damage and extensive cleaning to her home. The bill includes $100 upfront cleaning fee and $50 per night to cover the cost of utilities. Would you ever have the nerve to demand an upfront fee to have family over for Christmas?
That's two questions. Do I have the nerve? Absolutely. Would I do it? Not in a million years. That's part of the fun. It's having people in your home and sharing your personal stuff your stuff or your life or your cooking. I mean, that's what the holidays are all about for me.
When they spill, you don't even think about how much it's going to cost.
I know what it's going to cost. She does.
She tells me about this stuff all the time. They're going to take me to the cleaners. Look at what's happening here, what I owe.
What But the thing is, I already have four dogs. I mean, I expect that there's going to be problems.
Exactly. This sounds like the offending family was really bad. If you've had that damage. Also, $50 for a day of utilities is a lot.
A Green New deal under Joe Biden. All right.
I don't know how this term part is in. We are here celebrating Christmas. Okay, so- She's doing her utility.
That's a lot of Netflix and toaster ovens.
You know what that is? That's like $1,500 a month in gas and electricity. That's not a lot, depending on the size of your house.
Someone's doing the math real fast. I had no idea.
I would never charge. I would be too embarrassed. I wouldn't have the nerve.
I wouldn't charge. I would just take notes. If you come to my house, well, first of all, if your child acts a fool in my house, I'll say, Obviously, dad is taking the day off, so I'll take it from here because my voice is very different when I see a kid acting out in my house because my kids don't act out. But if you do do something, when I come to your house, I will show you what a boy in a China shop can do. Oops, I'm sorry. I'm all shoulders, bro. I can ruin a chair. Act a fool at mine. How much was that coffee table?
