Hooray! It’s me, The Total Christmas Podcast and I’m here to spread some joy and a load of old drivel. Hooray!
First up it’s our Christmas Not So Classic and we look at All I Need Is Love, the CeeLo Green and The Muppets Christmas song from 2012. It has a fantastic video (and needs it cause the song ain’t so special).
Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEgcLrgxUOw&t=193s
Then we discuss the tale of Babushka and the 3 Kings. It’s about an old lady who spends all her time cooking and cleaning her house then one day she gets a visit from the 3 kings and they stay at her house and tell her about the baby they’re going to visit and… hang on, maybe you should just listen to the episode. The story is read out in full by The Right Honorable Jacklington Fordhampton the 3rd.
This episode’s version of A Christmas Carol is naff.

The recommendation this week is Kath and Kim. It’s a great sitcom from Australia and is very funny. If you’re in Australia you’ve probably seen it, but if not, it’s on Netflix.

Title: Minute 62 – The Lithgow Show
Due to life getting in the way prior to Julia departing for Florida on a family vacation, the elves came up one episode short to cover her absence! As such, there is obviously no new episode this week. However, we didn’t want to leave y’all hanging, so we’ve decided to share one of our Patreon-Exclusive “Christmas Movie Commentaries” segments with y’all! In our “Christmas Movie Commentaries”, the elves provide a commentary as they gather to watch one of the marquee Christmas films that everyone loves – in this instance, “Elf”. The hosts will count you down and let you know when to press play on whatever device on which you’re watching your movie, but if you just want to listen and not watch along, this is still a fun episode to brighten your week with a bit of holiday cheer! So settle in, queue up that Blu-Ray player, and enjoy a trip through the Candy Cane forest to New York City with your favorite elves!
And don’t worry, next Monday we’ll be back with a brand new episode in which we’re joined by Todd Killian of “Christmas Clatter” to discuss the 2007 film, “Christmas in Wonderland” (his choice of film) and this upcoming Thursday with the next chapter of “Another Christmas Story” which Steven Beech, a.k.a. Disco54, will be reading to y’all!

Welcome to a special bonus episode of Holly Jolly X’masu! In this episode, Gerry D. from the “Totally Rad Christmas!” podcast joins me to talk about the 1987 album, “G.M.O. Christmas Songs.” It’s a great collection of video game-style Christmas songs.
This was a fun album and one I desperately wanted to get on vinyl, not just because of how amusing it would have been to have this all-digital album in an analog format, but because the vinyl came with a poster of the cover. I missed out on the auctions I found for those, so I had to settle for the CD.
Featured on the album are songs arranged by Tomoji, Nobuyuki Nakamura, Yasuhiko Fukuda, and Noritaka Ubukata. Their clever arrangements are sure to appeal to anyone who grew up playing video games in the 80s.
As always, thanks for listening. For my regular episode later this month, I’ll be covering Ryoko Moriyama’s 1969 album, “Ryoko’s Christmas.” It’s the first of her four full Christmas LP’s, and one you don’t want to miss
Any feedback on this episode would be appreciated. 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. Any donations received will be put towards purchasing 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!

It’s Monday, which means it’s time for another episode of Tis the Podcast! This week, the elves are taking a trip across the pond (and back in time) to cover the Christmas episodes of one of Thom’s favorite tv shows, “The Vicar of Dibley” – a show that follows the townspeople of Dibley who reluctantly grow to accept and love Geraldine Granger as their local vicar. These episodes follow some tropes common to many holiday specials, but is the vicar able to add enough of a unique spin on them to win over the hearts of Julia and Anthony? How will a new Christmas carol from Dibley sit with the elves?
Cozy up next to the A/C vent or poolside with a nice mug of iced tea and enjoy!
And if you can’t get enough Christmas during the summer, be sure to check our Patreon (tisthepodcast.com/patreon) for more bonus content, PLUS the next installment of Anthony’s audiobook, “Another Christmas Story” – this week, read by Tim Babb of “Can’t Wait for Christmas” – which drops in your main feeds this upcoming Thursday!

Title: Christmas Podding- Why we all should Celebrate Christmas in July
Just when you thought the podcast was improving I go and break my microphone, so girls and boys we’re back to poor quality sound.
Add that to the poor content and it’s a killer combination that everyone is talking about.
Anyway, it’s an episode so at least there’s that.
First up we have Robin Sings and the songstress has been busy in the playground at school creating a new version of Jingle Bells Batman Smells. Should a 5 year old really be sprouting this filth? The answer is NO!
I blame the parents.
Then we take a trip to Greece and look at the legend of the Kalikanzaroi, little goblin type creatures that create havoc during the twelve days of Christmas.
Then we have a 3rd joke from Benji Pearson our American Scandinavian correspondent. Will this episode’s joke match the high quality of the previous two?
Not likely.
Then thanks to our listener Julie we take a look at A Diva’s Christmas Carol. This modern take on the classic exchanges Ebeneezer for Ebony Scrooge and it stars Vanessa William.
