In this whiskey-fueled bonus episode, we’re bringing the laughs, the pranks, and some questionable beverage choices.

Joe the Christmas Aficionado joins Cousin Seth and Cousin Chad to taste-test Southern Tier Pumpkin Whiskey, determining if it’s a fall-time hit or if it belongs underground with its fellow gourds. But that’s not all!

Good ol’ Cousin Seth gets hilariously pranked when he is pitched a completely fake Hallmark movie and listen in as he seriously weighs in on its “potential.”

Will Seth fall for the holiday fake-out? Tune in for festive mischief, questionable drink decisions, and lots of laughs!

Welcome back Christmas Cousins!

Last year, Cousin Seth and Cousin Chad took you on a merry journey across four countries, uncovering quirky and heartwarming holiday traditions—from the Yule Cat’s mischievous antics to the surprising KFC craze in Japan.

In classic Christmas Cousins fashion, Cousin Seth and Cousin Chad are doing things a little backward (as always) with their post-start season preview.

From Trader Joe’s tastings to fall activities that Seth has to tackle, and even a pumpkin beer showdown, this season is shaping up to be a merry mix of seasonal delights.

Oh, and don’t worry—we’re diving into the ultimate fall debate: Dunkin’ vs. Starbucks.

By the way, Cousin Seth gives an update on his quest to have 18 PSLs by Halloween!

From the much-anticipated reunion of Lacey Chabert and Brennan Elliott in “His & Hers” to the spooky vibes of “Haunted Wedding,” they’ll give their unfiltered, fun, and witty take on what Hallmark has in store this fall.

And of course, we’ll catch up with Seth on how he’s handling his second season of Hallmark movie madness. Grab your favorite fall beverage and settle in for a cozy, laugh-filled episode!

Welcome back Christmas Cousins!

We watched and reviewed the 1986 classic, “Santa Bear’s First Christmas”.

And you’re now probably asking the same thing we keep asking ourselves is…why?

Frankly, we are still not sure…

Anyway, on this episode, we try to get to the bottom of why Gerry chose this special, what we loved, disliked about it and did we bail halfway through.

And, of course, what lessons we all learned from it…it’s an ’80s Christmas special after all…there’s always a lesson in there somewhere!

But seriously, why are we reviewing this?!?

Audience Question:

Are you a big Santa Bear fan? Have you seen this? What are your thoughts?

Welcome back, Christmas Cousins! After our brief summer hiatus, we’re thrilled to be back (Cousin Chad is ecstatic, while Cousin Seth insists a proper hiatus should involve months in the Alps or French Riviera, but I digress).

Join us as we update you on how the Christmas Cousins spent their hiatus and how our summer adventures have been going. We’ll also read some listener reviews and feedback, giving a shout-out to our amazing community. Of course, we’ll get the highly anticipated update on Seth’s love life, which promises to be as intriguing as ever.

Plus, we’ll discuss our upcoming shows and plans for the rest of the summer as we gear up for the fall and holiday season. So grab your iced cocoa, settle in, and let’s beat the heat together with some festive cheer!
