In today’s episode, my daughter Grace comes back to talk about her favorite Christmas traditions and memories. We also talk about some recent romantic Christmas movies I’ve seen lately. Then, for our cozy story, I read Chapter 3 of “Old Christmas” by Washington Irving. In the chapter today, our narrator arrives at Bracebridge Hall on Christmas Eve, and continues to observe the old traditions.

If you have a questions for Gracie, let me know and it might appear on an upcoming episode!

Gracie’s Favorite Christmas Memories, and “Old Christmas” Part 2 of 3

A Cozy Christmas'

What’s up, dudes? Nicholas Pepin of Pop Culture Roulette and Jeremy Phelps the Alamo City Santa  to talk about the 2nd Christmas episode of Quantum Leap “Promised Land!” Do we talk physics? Not really, but we discuss Scott Bakula for sure!

“Promised Land” was the 11th episode in Season 5 of Quantum Leap, and the 86th overall series episode. Written by Gillian Horvath and Tommy Thompson, the episode, which was directed by Scott Bakula, first aired on NBC-TV on December 15, 1992. Sam leaps into Elk Ridge, Indiana on December 22, 1971 as “Willie” Walters, Jr., one of three brothers who are robbing the town bank. The bank loaned them an exorbitant amount of money, but with failing crop yields, they resort to robbery in order to pay it off.

Meanwhile, Sam struggles with his emotions of returning to his hometown and his relationship with his own father. Eventually, he manages to escape the bank and uncover the reason the bank lent money to these farmers who could not possibly pay it back. Sam confronts the swindler and  prevents the brothers from being killed when they try to escape. Joy to the world! Oh, and he runs into his dad and gets to say what he always wishes he had said.

Confusion and disorientation? Yep. Investigation? Got that too. Death prevention? As only Dr. Sam Beckett can! So put on your white body suit and time travel into this episode on Quantum Leap “Promised Land!”

Season seven of 12 Songs comes to a conclusion with three very different conversations and artists. Ha-Sizzle is one of the finest examples of the New Orleans-specific brand of hip-hop known as bounce. I talked to him about his Christmas in New Orleans in front of a live audience.

The members of the British punk band Goddammit Jeremiah talk about their irreverent approach to Christmas and Christmas music and share a few of their holiday favorites that haven’t made much of an impact here in the States.

At the end of an interview with MacMcCaughan of Superchunk for another story, I got a few minutes to talk about their cover of John Cale’s “Child’s Christmas in Wales,” as well as his other attempts to make music for the season.

In that conversation, The Kinks’ “Father Christmas” was referred to for the second or third time this season, and it took a lot of discipline not to play it again.

We also hear new music from É Arenas and Saturday Looks Good to Me, the latter from the new compilation Have Yourself a Merry Indie Christmas Vol. 4. I interviewed its compiler/producer Kevin McGrath in 2022.

In the episode, I mention a piece I wrote for The New Orleans Advocate. I also mention this year’s downloadable Christmas mix, which you can get by writing me at alex@myspiltmilk.com.

12 Songs will return on July 24, 2025. Mark that date on your calendar or subscribe to 12 Songs wherever you get your podcasts.

This episodes version of A Christmas Carol is the Netflix original from 2022 called Scrooge: A Christmas Carol.  It’s a sort of remake of the Albert Finney version from 1970 and it’s alright I suppose.

Then Bob Baker is back with Spread A Smile of Joy and he suggests some ways to get the little ones to spread some happiness.

What’s up, dudes? Today we’re talking about the present Santa brought me for Christmas 1985. Yes, it’s the Defender of the Universe itself: Voltron! Joining to dig into these Christmas wishbooks is my buddy Lucas Hinojosa and DJ Chad Sheppard! We dig into the history and awesomeness that is the mighty robot! It’s a Voltron Christmas!

From days of long ago, from uncharted regions of the universe, comes a legend, the legend of Voltron, Defender of the Universe. A mighty robot, loved by good, feared by evil. As Voltron’s legend grew, peace settled across the galaxy. On planet Earth, a galaxy alliance was formed. Together with the good planets of the solar system, they maintained peace throughout the universe. Until a new horrible menace threatened the galaxy. Voltron was needed once more. This is the story of the super force of space explorers, specially trained, and sent by the alliance, to bring back Voltron: Defender of the Universe.

The series was primarily edited from Beast King GoLion (Hyakujū-ō Goraion), and it features a team of five young space explorers commanding five robot lions which can be combined to form Voltron. In this undefined future era, the Voltron Force is in charge of protecting the planet Arus, ruled by Princess Allura, from the evil King Zarkon of planet Doom, his son Lotor, and the witch Haggar. Each episode huge killer “ro-beasts” terrorize the people of Arus. In the decades that followed, companies produced Christmas tie-in merchandise, such as ornaments, sweaters, and stockings as well.

Lion robots? Check. Flaming swords? For sure. Edited and sanitized original anime for American audiences? I’m looking at you, Sven! So grab your key, hop in your lion, and form your mighty robot to this episode on Voltron Christmas!

Ded Moroz (“Grandfather Frost”), went from folk tale to fairy tale, from beloved symbol of Christmas to exile, and then back to beloved symbol, all in surprisingly short order. It’s a story of ups and downs, set against the backdrop of a violent social and political revolution, and which resulted in a strange stint as the “Soviet Santa Claus.”

Karen Petrone, University of Kentucky history professor and author of Life Has Become More Joyous, Comrades, joins Brian to tell the story.

Clara in Australia shares a Christmas memory in this episode. Check out her podcast, The Festivity Files.
