23 weeks / 162 days until Christmas! (“Christmas Vacation” Song Battle)

Chrismas Morning

On this episode, we continue the the 5th Anniversary presentation of our made-for-podcast Christmas movie: “A Bomb For Christmas” with parts 5 and 6. We will be releasing two parts of the movie every Wednesday leading up to our cast reunion episode on July 25th.

Brief Synopsis:
Holly is a dedicated cop who’s getting some time off for Christmas whether she wants it or not. Now she’s back in her small town and rediscovering her love of her husband. But when her job follows her home, instead of celebrating with her husband, she’ll have to save him. Can she save the day, save her marriage, and save Christmas at the same time? Tune in to find out.

Whether you’re a fan of those made-for-TV Christmas movies that are a hallmark of the season, or if you’re a die hard fan of action packed Christmas movies…A Bomb For Christmas is the perfect gift for you this year, five years ago, or really any year.

CWFC 144 – A Bomb For Christmas – 5th Anniversary (Parts 5 & 6)

What’s up, dudes? Come live your fantasy in Beverly Hills.Come on and make your dreams come true. William Bruce West from Remember That Show? and West Week Ever and Chad Young from Horror Movie BBQ are with me to do that, and talk about the 1987 cartoon Beverly Hills Teens Christmas episode “Miracle at the Teen Club!”

In this two-part episode from Dec. 17-18, 1987, Buck attempts to throw a big Christmas party. Unfortunately, Larke and Troy decide to go caroling and to give toys to needy children, making the party a bust. Only a few of the teens show up, and they all get snowed in at the Teen Club due a cheap snow machine.

In order to pass the time, they tell Jillian and Chester their version of Dickens’s “A Christmas Carol.” Of course, they cast themselves as the characters, with Buck as Scrooge. Radley, Switchboard, and Nikki are the Ghosts, and they show Buck the errors of being über-wealthy. In true Scrooge fashion, he donates a huge sum of money to the orphanage.

Surfing ghosts? Check. Travel via landline? Got it. Bah, hummingbird? Bah, hummingbird?!?! So grab your checkbook, hop in your oversized limo, and carol along to this “Miracle at the Teen Club” episode of a Beverly Hills Teens Christmas!
