Let it Be Christmas – despite what 2020 has become. That is the theme and the message of this merry episode of the Merry Little Podcast that is filled with music.
We take a look back at our thoughts of Christmas just months ago and the predictions we made last spring about what this Christmas will be like. It’s here now — so how are we dealing with it?
We have some pretty serious issues, not the least of which is the unexpected mental toll this year has taken on many. Are you feeling it? Have you lost that loving feeling when it comes to Christmas?
Many have and we’re taking that topic head on. For some the thought to let it be Christmas is difficult to put the head around in a year like this. Where can we turn for inspiration?
We take a look back in history with two very different stories. We discuss George Washington’s Christmas at Valley Forge and how Christmas saved things for him when the Continental Congress could help him not at all. The lessons of General Washington are a ponderous thing for those of us struggling to find the Christmas we believe in.
We also tell the story of Archie Roosevelt, son of President Theodore Roosevelt. This one is a little more light-hearted but its lessons are the same: that we need and even crave the love, warmth and security of a Christmas well-celebrated and that we will go far to get it.
Christmas for many this year — and Thanksgiving too, for that matter – is one many are having to reach far for.
How is that done?
While we do not claim to have the answers we do have some suggestions. It is something we can work on together. And for many, it is something we can over come together.
Please join us at the Merry Forums of My Merry Christmas, where we have ideas of plenty about the virtual Christmas and the things we can do together to let it be Christmas.

On this episode, we are joined by the hilarious Glenn Rose. We talk about how we relate mostly to the main character’s friends and family when they roast how she dresses and we find it very weird that she’s so hot yet super awkward. We (mostly Holli) talk about how HOT the main hunk is. Also, why was the best friend/partner also not a competing love interest? I mean, he’s hot too!Disclaimer: This podcast contains spoilers and swears.Where you can go to support our guest Glenn:Twitter

This week, Julia, Thom, and Anthony cover the 2020, Netflix original holiday film, Holidate! The opinions on this movie range all over the spectrum between the three elves with this one, as users speculated they would on social media in advance of this recording, and debate rages about whether the main relationship in this movie feels real, whether this qualifies as a Christmas movie, whether or not any film set in the present should be set at malls anymore, and whether or not this is merely a Hallmark Holiday movie dressed up with a dash of raunch and a plethora of vulgarity. Plus, Anthony once again finds himself on the opposite side of wide divide from Thom and Julia as it pertains to the the idea of infidelity in movies and television shows. In addition to all of this, the elves discuss how they spent their Halloweens, Thom teases a new podcast he’s launching with another host within the Christmas Podcast Network, Anthony talks briefly about The Dresden Files short story “Christmas Eve”, and Julia expresses her excitement for next week’s scheduled film! All of this and much, much more takes place within this festive, laugh-a-plenty episode that you want to be sure not to miss. So settle in beside your Christmas tree with your favorite Starbucks Holiday-Flavored drink in this year’s beautifully designed Red Cup, relax, and enjoy! Also, as mentioned within the episode itself, the elves have a new, exciting, additional way planned to count down to Christmas 2021 next year, so if any of y’all would be interested in taking part in that, reach out to one of them via the Facebook Group and let them know!In addition, for those of you who are patrons of the show, keep your eye out for the debut minisode of “Tis the Podcast: After Dark”, dropping this upcoming Wednesday – because some things shouldn’t be heard by the entire world. Hint: In it, one of the elves tells an extraordinarily embarrassing story from a few years back that will have you rolling with disgusted laughter.

What’s up, dudes? Rikki Meece from the Sleigh Bells and Mistletoe Podcast and I broke down two songs from the A Very Special Christmas album! Yep, it’s Bon Jovi v Sting in the Thunderdome! We talk their catalogue, their Christmas music, their look and sound, and definitely their lyrics! Two songs enter, one song leaves! Check it out!
We take a look back in history with two very different stories.
