[00:05.52] Jon: Can I interest you in Hannukah?
[00:10.03] Maybe something in a Festival of Lights
[00:13.79] It's a sensible alternative to Christmas
[00:18.71] And it lasts for seven -for you - eight nights.
[00:24.98] Stephen: Hanukkah huh? I've never really thought about it.
[00:28.94] Jon: Well, you could do worse.
[00:31.95] Stephen: Is it merry?
[00:34.18] Jon: It's kind of merry
[00:36.14] Stephen: Is it cheery?
[00:38.37] Jon: It's got some cheer
[00:40.72] Stephen: Is it jolly?
[00:41.91] Jon: Look, I wouldn't know from jolly.
[00:44.57] But it's not my least unfavorite time of year.
[00:49.01] Stephen: When's it start?
[00:50.07] Jon: The 25th
[00:51.46] Stephen: Of December?
[00:52.48] Jon: Kislev
[00:53.60] Stephen: When is when exactly?
[00:56.37] Jon: I will check
[00:58.25] Stephen: Are there presents?
[00:59.20] Jon: Yes, indeed 8 days of presents
[01:02.38] Which means one nice one, then a week of dreck.
[01:08.07] Stephen: Does Hanukkah commemorate events profound and holy?
[01:13.17] A king who came to save the world?
[01:16.73] Jon: No, oil that burned quite slowly
[01:23.88] Stephen: Well, it sounds fantastic!
[01:25.71] Jon: There's more
[01:29.78] Jon: We have latkes
[01:31.18] Stephen: What are they?
[01:32.38] Jon: Potato pancakes.
[01:34.63] We have dreidels
[01:35.68] Stephen: What are they?
[01:36.70] Jon: Wooden tops.
[01:38.83] We have candles
[01:39.69] Stephen: What are they?
[01:40.64] Jon: THEY ARE CANDLES!
[01:42.86] And when we light them, oh the fun it never stops.
[01:47.80] What do you say, Stephen, do you want to give Hanukkah a try?
[01:50.80] Stephen: I'm trying see me as a Jew
[01:53.67] I'm trying even harder
[01:56.02] But I believe in Jesus Christ
[01:58.84] So it's a real non-starter
[02:04.40] Jon: I can't interest you in Hanukkah?
[02:10.28] Just a little bit?
[02:12.14] Stephen: No thanks I'll pass.
[02:14.91] I'll keep Jesus, you keep your potato pancakes.
[02:19.78] But I hope that you enjoy 'em on behalf of all of the goyim.
[02:25.60] Jon: Be sure to tell the Pontiff, my people say Good Yontif.
[02:33.12] Stephen: That's exactly what I'll do
[02:38.63] Both: Happy holidays, you
[02:44.75] Jon: too!/Stephen: Jew!
[02:48.83] Jon: Too?
