Season 2, Episode 10 – Des hommes et des dieux “Of Gods and Men” (Algeria)

Festive Fans Unite! (send us a message)

During this week of Thanksgiving, we are grateful to learn so much this episode, really, especially for a holiday week.  We are spending our Black Friday just basking in these hard truths.  After a vain search for a Colonial Christmas movie, we really learned what the Pilgrims thought about Yuletime festivities – that they should be banned.  Instead, we decide to travel to another area that is equally unfriendly to our favorite holiday, just to learn how initial appearances can be deceiving.  We visit Algeria, located in North Africa, a place that offers us a true story on film, with thoughtful resonance and emotional impact.  It is a real-life event that challenges perceptions about religion, sacrifice, and obligation.  What does it mean to have deep faith and to be tested with your life?  How strong is your belief and your convictions?  These are the weighty questions that we still contemplate while dining on turkey and stuffing.

We embrace the diverse challenges posed by a place with remarkable beauty, a sprawling desert, and a powerful ethnic heritage.  Despite the heartache of the film and its true-life events, it does offer hope and joy, but it also poses a question of what it means to be festive.  Unlike many of the other countries that we visit, Christmas is a private event for the small Christian minority in Algeria and the challenges they face.  And yet, since we were concerned, they are still able to celebrate with delicious delicacies like bourek with creamy bechamel sauce, cinnamon and butter topped Tamina, and a basket of dates, dried figs, and nuts.  At least some things are the same wherever you go.  Yum!

Episode 125: Takeshi Terauchi’s 1960’s Christmas Music

Welcome to episode 125 of Holly Jolly X’masu! In this episode, I talk about Takeshi Terauchi’s Christmas music from the 1960’s.

I hope you enjoyed this first episode about the God of Electric Guitar. His records were some of my favorites early on, and I still listen to them whenever I get the chance. Although I managed to get back on pace at the end of last month, things got really hectic again and I’m once more way behind schedule. I’m doing my best to get these three episodes out before the end of the month, and then I’ll dive into my December episodes.

Join me next time as I continue my look at Takeshi Terauchi. I’ll be talking about his 1979 album, “Let’s Go! Terry X’mas.” Then listen in for my third episode about Terry when I’ll be discussing his 1983 album, “Electric Merry Christmas.” They both great albums you’re sure to enjoy.

As always, any feedback on this episode would be appreciated. If have any suggestions, or 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. I’ve also opened a Redbubble store. I only have a couple designs up, but keep an eye on it as I’ll be trying to add more. Half of any proceeds or donations received will be donated to support the people of Ukraine, while the rest will be used to purchase 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!

Episode 121 – A Quiz, A Carol, A Gift, A Book… the lot.

This show has it all.
Well, it has some stuff.

First up it’s The Quiz, see if you can beat my score of 8.

Then Bob Baker explains the difference between University and College in Do You Hear What I Hear.

We’ve been sent another Worst Present Ever from Rob Taylor, and this one is a Festive Bounty.

After that, listener Benjamin Hall has sent us a definitive top 5 of the all time greatest US Christmas adverts.  If you disagree you’re welcome to send me your top 5.

This episode we have another giveaway.  If you’d like to win a copy of The Unofficial Elf Cookbook by Bryton Taylor, all you have to do is email me ‘Let’s ‘ave it’, and it could be yours.
Check out the book here:
https://www.simonandschuster.co.uk/books/The-Unofficial-Elf-Cookbook

Then, thanks to a question in The Quiz, we look at who Kerstman is.  It’s an interesting one.

It seems that in The Quiz last episode, Martin Goodman was the only listener who knew Showaddywaddy sung Hey Mr Christmas, well this episode we have a listen to it.
Check out the song here:

Then Bob Baker is back with Spread a Smile of Joy, and he looks at giving thanks as a way to spread the love.
Check out Bob’s pod, Festive Foreign Film Fans, it’s great:
https://4fpodcast.buzzsprout.com/

This episode’s version of A Christmas Carol is a Rude Retelling by Brian Harvey of East 17 fame.  It’s not for the sensitive, but it’s a bit of fun if you don’t mind swearing.
Here’s a link:

This episode’s recommendation is a British sitcom called Miranda.  Me and the wife have just rewatched all 20 episodes and I think you’ll enjoy it.
Not sure if it’s streaming where you live, but here’s a link:

The History of My Favorite Things – Iconic Song tied to Holiday Traditions

What makes something a “favorite” at Christmas? In this episode, we dive into the beloved classic song My Favorite Things—from its origins in The Sound of Music to its surprising rise as a holiday staple. Discover how this timeless tune became a soundtrack for the season, even though it was never originally written as a Christmas song.

But we don’t stop there! We’ll also explore the broader idea of “favorite things” during the holidays: cherished traditions, decorations, foods, media, and moments that bring joy year after year. Whether it’s snowy nights, warm drinks, or the sparkle of lights, this episode will leave you inspired to reflect on what makes your own holiday season magical.

And at the end of the episode, I’ll be reading a special excerpt from the book, The Lost Years of Santa Claus. Join us for a journey into Santa’s untold past and discover the stories that shaped the legend of Christmas himself. This is one of our favorite episodes—don’t miss it!
