What’s up, dudes? Jeremy Phelps the Alamo City Santa and Sean Sotka from the Christmas Podcasts Podcast join me to talk all about 1980’s “The Christmas Raccoons!” It’s an ”Inception”-like dream/reality hybrid of pink aardvarks lumber barons and talking raccoons. It’s also Canadian and narrated by Rich Little.

The trees begin to disappear rapidly. Someone is cutting them down, and Ranger Dan has to solve the mystery. As he goes off into the wilderness leaving his poor children at home, some plucky raccoons soon find their own dwelling chopped. Ralph, Melissa, and lazy Bert were decorating for Christmas too. What a shame.

As they investigate, they mistake the ranger’s children for the tree cutters and sneak into their cabin. It turns out, however, that the culprit is Cyril Sneer. The raccoons, along with their new sheepdog friend Schaeffer ambush Cyril, and get him to discontinue his assault on the Forest. Subsequently they move into the tree in front of the cabin.

College educated nerdy son? Check. Raccoon stockings? Got ‘em. Christmas tree Yggdrasil upon which Midgard hangs as an ornament? Definitely! So grab your coat, put on your scarf, and sled down to this episode on “The Christmas Raccoons!”

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!

BREAKING NEWS: Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas Preview Part 1 with Joe, the Christmas Aficionado!

Christmas Cousins

Let’s face it – sometimes, Christmas can be hard. But does that mean we have to lose the joy of Christmas forever?

My guest today is Alexandra Walker – and she has just written a fantastic book called “Reclaiming Christmas” in which she explores her story of how Christmas was a difficult time for her, and the steps she took to reclaim the joy of Christmas. Healing is possible, and I think that her book can be a help to many who might find the season of Christmas difficult. I admit that abuse recovery is not a “cozy” topic, but we do focus more on the recovery aspect and steps you can take towards recovery, especially in connection with the Christmas season. It’s not all serious conversations though – we do also take time to talk about some of our favorite things about the Christmas season, including whether or not Brussel Sprouts should be a part of Christmas dinner…

Alexandra and I invite you to sit back and relax, and enjoy this cozy conversation that brought tears of joy to my eyes!

I’m excited to introduce you to my new friend Alexandra. Just so you know, I am not being paid to say these things – I think Alexandra has a genuine good product here, and I am personally benefiting from what I read in her book and from the discussion we had. Here are some links to her website and book, and you will find a full list of what she offers, including free gifts, 1:1 packages, group programmes and on-demand courses. The list is grouped into different categories – Sing After The Storm, Wellbeing Toolbox, Christmas, and Entrepreneurship. Enjoy browsing!

Closer to Christmas

Welcome to episode 120 of Holly Jolly X’masu! In this episode, I talk about Yuzoh Kayama’s 1983 album, “White Christmas.”

I hope you enjoyed Yuzoh Kayama’s “White Christmas.” He’s been a massive star in Japan since the 60s. One difficulty I had writing this episode was the fact that there’s such a wealth of information about him. I did my best to cover the highlights, though. I’ll get to his music from the 60s eventually.

I’ll do my best to get caught up before October. I have a couple great albums lined up for the rest of this month. First up is Yasuko Agawa’s “Come In Christmas” from 1990. It’s a wonderful vocal jazz album. After that is the 1997 compilation, “Winter Gift Pops.” It’s one I’ve been looking forward to covering, and you’re sure to enjoy it.

As always, any feedback on this episode would be appreciated. If have any suggestions, or if you’d like to recommend a song or album for a future episode, drop me a line and let me know.

Remember, I’ve added a button to my Ko-fi page. If you’d like to support me one cup of coffee at a time, a donation is only $3. I’ve also opened a Redbubble store. I only have a couple designs up, but keep an eye on it as I’ll be trying to add more. Half of any proceeds or donations received will be donated to support the people of Ukraine, while the rest will be used to purchase new Japanese Christmas music to review for future episodes. You can also find me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. And if you get a chance, leave me a review on iTunes. Thanks!
