your seatbelt cutter. (dramatic orchestra music) - Whoa. - It works. - Now you open the door,

was anything to go by, all I remember was Max bringing in some Miata shaped-
- Miata slippers. - Slippers. - I said I didn't like them. It almost ended my career. To start things off, Nolan, it looks like somebody left us a couple of stockings.
- Whoa. - Should we tear into those? - Sure. - We have no idea what any of these are. This is gonna be our blind reaction. - It's a wrapped gift
inside of a stocking. - Which is a good gift. - Oh, they're socks. - Oh, they are. They're socks. - Clutch. - Gas.
- Gas. - No brakes, baby. - [James] No brakes. - No brakes. - So these socks are $15. They're from Amazon.com. They seem like a high quality sock, not the kind of sock that I like to wear. - And maybe it's like, maybe you give these to a
newer driver in your life- - So they can drive
around without shoes on? - No, so like the muscle memory kinda goes into their body- - Always studying.
- By osmosis. - Yes.
- Always studying. I'd say if I got those,
my reaction would be like, oh, yeah, thank you. The sentiment behind
it, I think it's a win. - James, I totally agree. Clutch gift. - Enough about you. Let's talk about me. Similarly sized package. - [Nolan] Really squeezing it out. (fart bleats) - Universal Socket. Universal Socket two-fers for men. 7 to 19-millimeter. - For men? So only men can use this? - Yeah. I don't know how I can tell. There's a bunch of little, what would you call those, pinions? Yeah. Pins, pinions, whatever you desire-
- Pins in there. They're spring loaded. - And to test it out, we've got various sized bolts here. - [Nolan] Oh yeah. It's working. (dramatic violin music)
(ratchet clacking) (fart bleats)
You are tightening it. (James chuckles)
(Max chuckles) - I don't like how it feels. - I've never tried one of these. (ratchet clacking) What? That is bizarre. (dramatic orchestra music) Jeez, Max, you have to do
these so freaking tight? - What'd you torque those with, an impact? (Nolan and James laugh) - Well, it does work.
- It does work. - [Nolan] And now it's stuck on there. Uh-oh. - Like if someone got this for me, and gave it to me for Christmas, I think my reaction would be like, oh, I saw these on TV, yeah. Thank you. (dramatic orchestra
music drowns out speaker) - That is, that's stuck on there. - Yeah. Here. This thing stinks. Oh my God. (men laughing) - [Nolan] Yeah, skip that. Don't get him that. (pieces clanking) - Now that I know what this is. - (gasps) I know what that is, too. - Yeah, ooh. That's a real reaction. Got a Lego Porsche 911. It's $30, available at all
major retailers, and online. Dude, I think this is a great gift-
- I love it. - And look how cool the Lego guy is. I'm gonna pull him out. What? It's broken. I gotta build the guy? - His head and hair is in one bag. - He's got a helmet. - He's got a little Porsche shirt on. That's how you know he's
a real Porsche owner. - Dude, this guy's cool. He can hang out for the rest of the show. - [Nolan] Yeah, for sure.
(Super Mario coin dings) Great gift. 100%, I want one. I will always accept Legos as a gift, because I am a child.
(retro video game music) Okay, let's open our next gift here. Feels kind of dense. - Yeah, not giving us a lot of clues. - No. What the heck is this? Alexa Auto? I guess if you're already
part of the Amazon- - Yeah, if you use Alexa in your home-
- Alexa ecosystem. Yeah, it's kinda cool.
- You wanna take it to your car. - Sure. Let Amazon track you, wherever you go. - You have a phone, you boob. - That's true. - For the right person,
this is a great gift. - Yeah, for the right person.
- A great stocking stuffer. If someone uses Alexa a lot
in their home, then 100%. They'd be like, oh my God. We can use Alexa in my car now. Like Alexa, what time was my dad born? (men laughing) Okay, so- - What do you think it is, James? - I have no idea. Max said it was an actual car part. - I don't see it.
- It's heavy. I can't put it-
- Here, let me see- - I don't know. What is it? Maybe if I look at it like this, look at it like this. I don't-
- I don't see it. - I just don't know. Oh, what's in it? Only one way to find out.
- Yeah, open it up. (James grunting) (Nolan laughing) - Oh. It's a nice wheel. - Did you get this off Wish? (James giggles)
- Oh, so it's not nice. We are not doing a bit here. This is really difficult- - Look at this wrapping paper. It's stretching. Okay, so this is a fake
MOMO steering wheel. Max got it off Wish.com. The quality is not nice. It feels terrible in the hand. - I was tricked by that logo. And then I saw the
buttons, and I was like, I don't think Max bought a MOMO-
- This is not real. So if this were a real
MOMO steering wheel, and it didn't look like this, then I think that this be a great gift- - Oh, that'd be slick to get a MOMO-
- for the car enthusiast in your life. Even as wall art, it's great. - I have it. We had an old MOMO at the old office. It's in my bathroom now. - Little known fact, you can use them to steer a car, too. - So would you want to
steer your car with this? - I would not. This is a fake- (Max laughs) But this is a fake wheel from Wish.com, which means not only is it
ugly, and cheap, and crappy, it's downright dangerous. So don't buy this for someone. - But if you buy a nice steering
wheel, that's a cool gift. - Very cool. Probably coolest gift so far. - Definitely.
- But they are expensive. I think this is checks. - (laughs) It feels like checks. - (chuckles) It feel exactly like checks. Why did you get it with this paper? - This paper, it doesn't even tear. It's made of plastic-
- It makes your hands feel terrible. - This is a car safety tool, James. - This thing is $32 on Amazon. It's a multi-tool. - Yeah, it looks like it's
got a tire pressure gauge, which I actually like.
- That's nice. - It's got one of those things where you can smack
your window and break it in the case of car accident. It's got a torch function too, which I assume is its- - Like a British torch. It's got a red LED light for some reason. Tire nozzle, safety lock
button, glass hammer, scissors, screwdriver,
pliers, seatbelt cutter. In case one of your enemies
is in the passenger seat. And we happen to have
a seat belt right here for you to cut, Nolan. - Oh, perfect. Where'd you get a seatbelt? - [Max] Auto Zone. - Really? - [Nolan] All right, so
here's your seatbelt cutter. (dramatic orchestra music) - Whoa. - It works. - Now you open the door,
and jump-push him out! Get outta my car! - Do you think if you got in a car wreck and were flipped upside down or whatever, you'd have the presence of mind to be like, oh, I have one of those window things.
- Yeah, no way. - Yeah. Me neither. Yeah. I'm not really feeling this. - I don't like it. So this is kind of a gimmicky gift. Like we said, if you're gonna get, so if you're thinking about
getting somebody this, get them a nice tire gauge, a flashlight- - A nice tire gauge, dude. That is a good gift idea. That's a gift idea.
- That's right from Nolan's mouth. Ooh.
- Ooh. - Oh, I want one of these. - I do, too. - It's a genuine car cup mount holder. I've tested a lot of phone
holders on this year. - You have, - I've seen my fair share. Okay, so I hate this. (creepy violin music)
- My initial worry was like, that's way too small a cup, but you can actually adjust it to the size of your individual cup holder, no matter what manufacturer you have. I'm gonna keep going until it runs out. James, there you go. So pretty big cup. I will be taking this with me. (mount clacking) - Not bad. It's kinda like in the
way of my shifter there. - [Max] If you drove a manual, that would (beep) you up.
- Oh, that would suck if this was a manual. I can pretend that's my shifter. (engine revving) - [Max] All right, you keepin' it? - I'm keepin' it. - [Max] She stays. - Ooh, it's soft. This could go either way. - Look at that. It's easy to open. Easy to rip. - The shirt.
- Oh, man. I remember-
- Could go either way. - We had some, we've had some dicey history
with shirts on this show. - We had some rough shirts on this show. - All right, let's see what it says. - I think this is gonna
be ironically cool. - Read it for me, James. - Car guy, noun, like a
regular guy, only cooler. (Nolan laughs) See also; all knowing about cars, comma ridiculously good looking. Wow.
- Wow. Dean is one of our editors here at Donut, and he loves t-shirts. He loves-
- Ironic shirts. - Ironic t-shirts. - I wanna see what you think about this-
- Go ahead and just open that up, and- - [Dean] This is what this is? (air whooshing) (Dean laughing) The pathetic spelling- - Yeah, yeah. So you're our like resident
ironic t-shirt guy- - [Dean] Because I have the one? - You have many. You have many. - Would you wear this? - [Dean] Yeah, I would
definitely wear this. - Okay, okay.
- All right, well happy holidays, Dean. This is yours now.
- It's yours. - [Dean] Thank you, Donut.
- Thank you. - Now get back to work! Get back in your cell! That one actually turned into a gift. - Great gift. - I gotta say I'm not the
biggest fan of that shirt. - Nah. Same. - It's a good gift for the right person. Terrible gift for the wrong person. So maybe, is it worth the risk? I don't know. That's up to you. (James screams)
- Oh my God. - What the heck? - Should we do it together?
- Yeah, let's do it together. (paper crinkling) Ooh.
- Whoa. - The bow fell in there.
- Oh, yeah. Oh, it's heavy. That means there's a lot in there. Oh, this is a great gift. - Some microfiber towels. - Some soap.
- Car wash. - Some little cleaning wax. Glass cleaner. - Seems like a- - A very well thought out kit. Tire cleaner-
- Varitable car washing kit. All in one, huh? - Oh, and isn't that cute? A little shark sponge. (Nolan laughs)
And a bucket. This is a car washing kit. It's a great gift for any auto enthusiast. It's maybe one of the only things that no matter what
kind of car you're into, whether it's trucks, Japanese, European, muscle cars,
you're gonna use this stuff. - Yeah. 1000%. - Okay. That's a winner right there. Winner, winner, chicken dinner. I think I know what this is. - Looks like a shoebox. - A buncha checks.
- There's always that. I'm getting in the holiday spirit. - I know, man. It feels like it. For the first time. Ooh.
- Oh, it is shoes. - Oh, these are cool.
- I was joking. - You didn't even get my size. You got your size? - [Max] They're not yours... I figured they'd fit Nolan. - Ooh.
- Oh, ho ho. Are these driving shoes? - No. - They're Ferrari... Yo. - Dude, I was hoping
that they're in my size, and they were like the
BMW ones or somethin'- - [Nolan] Oh my God. - Puma does collabs with
a number of car companies. It's sorta like one of their
things they do right now. I might like these. - Try 'em on.
- I'm conflicted. I can't. Max got 'em in neither of our sizes. - We should've just hooked
Dean up with all the plug- - Just drip out Dean? - [Max] So these cost $70 on Amazon. - Ooh, I don't know. - This just ruins it. What were you thinking, Puma? - The shoes might be cool. I wasn't a huge fan of those shoes.
- No. I think some driving shoes- - Driving shoes would be cool. - 'Cause it's like, I would
not buy myself driving shoes, but if somebody else got me driving shoes- - I'd be like, oh, I mean, I am an amazing driver. Thank you. This'll only make me a little bit better. - All right. (paper crinkling) Hey.
- Oh. - It's our Donut orange hoodie. - It's a hat. (Max laughs)
- That is a- - It's a beanie.
- A beanie. - Oh, a Donut Media beanie in orange. It also comes in blue. You can get it at donutmedia.com. And today, December 10th, is actually the last day
that you can order stuff on the website and get it by Christmas. So finish the video, head on over there. We'll put a link in the description below. Great gift. 10 outta 10. 100 outta 10, 1 million outta 10. If you get this for them,
they'll be calling you daddy. - [Max] This is the most expensive item on the entire episode- - That means it's the best, right? - [Max] This one cost $170. - Oh my-
- $170. Dibs. Dibs. - [Nolan] Enjoy. - You guys heard it. Dibs. - That's dense. That's a lotta checks- - That's a lot of checks, dude. Whoa.
- Whoa. - Actually, I un-dibs it. I don't shave. But a Bugatti-
- What the hell? - Gillette razor. - What? - What? ♪ I woke up and shaved with the Bugatti ♪ Whoa. It's heavy. - [Max] The box says it's supposed to feel like a hot towel every swipe. - Ooh. I know what a hot towel feels like. Okay, so this is the heavy part. - Oh, oh my God.
- I feel like it unnecessarily heavy.
- That's like steel, dude. - Oh, it's a heating element. If you have enough money to spend $170 on a pretty funny joke
that's not completely a joke, it's like still like usable, then this is a great gift. - For $170, I think that's... You're paying for that branding, really. I think that's a lot of money. - It's a lot of money for a Gillette. (Nolan and James chuckle) We are now, we have arrived
at our final present, and it's a little one. It's number 13. Why'd you get 13, Max? What is that (indistinct)? - Here's- - No.
- Keys. - Terrible gift. These are the keys to the Jetta. The worst gift of the whole list. - Really bad.
- Don't buy your friend a piece of crap, old car
with a broken head gasket. Terrible gift. Way to end the show, Max. - Yeah, that's pretty funny.
