Welcome back Christmas Cousins!

 

In this episode, Cousin Seth flies Cousin Chad in for a visit to see Seth at his mega-mansion. Before they can get into too much merriment, Seth has to help a neighbor feed her pets while she is away.

 

The cousins head over to help out and, much to Chad’s shock, turns out…Seth’s neighbor is the inimitable Oprah Winfrey!

 

While recording live from her pet menagerie feeding room, they knock something over and discover-a possibly yet-to-be-released-copy of Oprah’s Favorite Things for 2023.

 

This episode has it all-mega-celebs, lifestyles of the uber-wealthy, great gift ideas, cute pets, even a horse and chariot ride…and with holiday spirit to spare! ENJOY!

As always, we love the feedback, messages and support-frankly, it’s been amazing to hear how many of you are really enjoying this journey with the Cousins-please keep them coming-

What’s up, dudes? When people talk about the classics of Thanksgiving television, they always talk about the WKRP in Cincinatti’s “Turkeys Away” episode! My bud Vinnie Brezinsky from Huey and Bax joins me to gab–or is it gobble?–about this classic turkey drop!

The station is running so smoothly that Carlson is feeling useless and left out. He pries into everyone else’s projects, angering and annoying them in the process. Consequently, he decides to take matters into his own hands. He clandestinely plans a secret Thanksgiving Day publicity stunt. During disc jockey Johnny Fever’s segment, on-the-scene reporter Les Nessman gives live commentary of the spectacle. Actually, debacle is the correct term, because the stunt involved Carlson and Herb throwing live turkeys into the unsuspecting crowd from a helicopter. People run from the turkey bombs just as Johnny cuts the feed. Finally, Carlson, Herb, and Les return to the station and detail the horrific affair.

Based on a true story, this episode has comedy in spades! Drug references? Yep. Absurd ideas from incompetent bosses? Check. Turkeys hitting the pavement like sacks of wet cement? Definitely! So grab your microphone, hop in your chopper, and fly off into this episode about the classic WKRP Turkey Drop!

Check us out on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Totally Rad Christmas Mall & Arcade, Teepublic.com, or TotallyRadChristmas.com! Later, dudes!

In this merry musical episode, we welcome back the jolly co-host of the Christmas Morning Podcast and Tinsel Tunes Podcast, Scot!

 

It’s Scott’s third appearance on the show, and he’s here to guide our festive freshman, Cousin Seth, through the perplexing world of Christmas songsto AVOID. Yes, you heard that right.

 

We’re diving deep into the treacherous waters of Yuletide music, but this time, we’re avoiding the earworms, the cringe-worthy classics, and the cheesy or maudlin carols that make you want to cover your ears.

 

Scott, our resident holiday music expert, is on hand to share his wisdom and help us steer clear of the seasonal songs that should come with a “listen at your own risk” label.

 

From musical turkeys to overplayed duds, we’ve compiled the ultimate playlist of what NOT to listen to this Christmas.

 

So, plug in your earbuds, join the fun, and get ready to celebrate the holidays with some side-splitting song critiques. Your ears will thank you! 🎶🚫
