Jimbo joyously responded, “They said they wanna do a Christmas episode. And I said, that sounds cool.. that would be great. I.. didn’t know the whole scenario, behind how all that comes to be. By the way, before I committed to it, they sent me the script. & I looked at it, and I asked your mom. I said, ‘what do you think about it?’ And she goes, you got to do that. It’s unbelievable.”
