Hello you beautiful people.
It’s a jam packed episode filled with festive joy.
First up it’s Do You Hear What I Hear and Bob Baker talks about Father Christmas. These days it’s just another name for Santa, but his origins are very different.
Then it’s Jack Ask and my self-appointed best friend Chris has a a question which isn’t a dilemma, but I answer it anyway.
We haven’t had a yule log for a while but we have one now. This one is Fireplace for the Home Classic Edition on Netflix. It’s an hour of a real fire, with a very exciting highlight.
Well worth a look.
Then it’s the quiz and to help answer the questions we have the return of Steven A McKay. He’s written some great Christmas short stories and he has a podcast. We also play his Christmas song.

Then it’s another Jack Ask. This one comes from Adam Parker from the Merry Britsmas Podcast. Should he decorate his neighbours tree as a festive surprise?

Also why not read my book. It’s only for grown-ups but it might make you laugh:
Then we have the triumphant return of Shelli Arnold and Frank the Tank. They give us a guided tour of their wonderful Christmas village.
I’ve posted pictures on Facebook, you really should have a gander.
This episode version of A Christmas Carol is an old time radio show from 1949. It’s an episode of Richard Diamond Private Detective and it’s alright I suppose.

This episode I’m recommending I’m Not Complaining with Robin and Juno.
