  • Season 4 – Episode 2 – Baby Shower
  • Season 5 – Episode 10 – Negotiations

Also discussed: the upcoming Halloween season; 2023’s Advent Calendars; and much, much more! This is one extremely fun episode you want to be sure not to miss!

What’s up, dudes? Remember the Brit-pop group XTC? Well, in 1983 they released a Christmas single under the pseudonym The Three Wise Men in order to test out a new producer, David Lord. Ken Kessler from Sounds of Christmas joins me to talk all about “Thanks for Christmas” and its B-side “Countdown to Christmas Party Time!”

The single had a few in jokes in the liner notes too! The writing is credited to Caspar, Melchior, and Balthazar, the traditional Western names for the Magi. Credit was given to producer The Good Lord as well.

Pseudonyms? Check. Modulations? A bunch. Adding a B-side just so the album doesn’t warp? Definitely! So head to your local record store, pop on some headphones, and listen to this episode all about XTC “Thanks for Christmas!”

Christmas Podding

This week on Christmas Podding we ask the hard question How long should you keep your family Christmas Tree. Why is it so hard to throw away decades of  memories?

There’s a new trend of leaving receipts in Christmas Gifts to give the option of returning it, is that a clever idea or just a humble brag to show off what you’ve spent? Plus

We have the very honest discussion about why we believe Kids should be excluded from the Christmas Table and relegated to their own Kids area. Are we being mean or just festively practical?

Merry Christmas you beautiful people.

It’s a packed show, so let’s get started.

Inspired by my segment last week, Mary Polte sent us a link to a forgotten Monkees single.  It’s actually We Three Monkees as Mike Nesmith didn’t get involved.
It’s a cover of  Christmas is My Time of Year and you can have a listen here:

Then Jennifer Kay shares the story of when she, her sister and in a separate story her son found out the truth about Santa Claus.

Next up Bob Baker talks to us about Rubbish.

This episode’s version of A Christmas Carol is a 7 minute study guide summary.  It’s surprisingly thorough and the speech emojis are quite funny.
If you have a spare 7 minutes you might want to check it out:

Then Bob is back and he has a nice way to start each day with a mug of Christmas.
Check out Bob’s podcast here:

Next up we look at The Burning of the Devil, a yearly custom that starts off the Christmas season in Guatamala.  It’s also a good oportunity for a spring clean (in the middle of winter).

Then it’s the quiz…  woo hoo!

If you want to get in touch, why don’t you.

You may be dying to know that for this episode, we dig up Mark’s past — and it’s of grave interest.  Since his dad was the town’s undrtaker, he is best suited to lay out our film for public viewing.  We explore a dreary holiday in a town entombed by its sole industry — asbestos mining.  And Mark buries it pretty good.  But don’t write our obit yet, we also enjoy the better part of being Quebecois at Christmas — pig’s feet soup, flying canoes, lumberjacks, and a star fairy.  And don’t forget to wash it all down with communion wine!

What’s up, dudes? I’ve got Robert Nicholas from Behind the Bells with me to talk all about the anthology special “Bugs Bunny’s Looney Christmas Tales!” Released in ‘79, right on the cusp of the ‘80s, it’s got 3 newly animated shorts held together by a loose framing device! Oh, and it’s quite fun and spectacular too!

The meta aspect of the special begins as Bugs Bunny, rehearsing his carolers, tells the tale of A Christmas Carol. Yosemite Sam is the miserly Scrooge who fires Porky Pig’s Cratchitt. Bugs, mischievous as ever, takes it upon himself to play the Ghost of Christmas. Sneakily, he haunts Sam by banging drums, pouring snow in his hot bath, and threatening to take him to see the “other” guy in the red suit.

As Bugs and gang sit for Christmas dinner, they congratulate each other on their acting performances of the Dickensian characters. Meanwhile, Wile E. Coyote eyes the turkey and immediately wishes he had roast roadrunner. The chase begins! Time and again the coyote is stymied by Acme products. His snow machine wallops him repeatedly, his sled dogs try to eat him, and his rocking horse leaves him.

Returning to the choir, Bugs leaves to read his nephew  A Visit from St. Nicholas. Unbeknownst to the rabbits, the Tasmanian Devil escapes his confinements and accidentally hijacks Santa’s sleigh team. Trying to avoid being eaten, Bugs tricks Taz into eating an inflatable raft, levitating him away.

Taz in a Santa suit? Check. Stuttering characters trying to sing? Yup. Wile E. Coyote constantly getting crushed by snow? Definitely! So grab your acme rocket skis, bang your drums really loudly, and trick your way into this episode about “Bugs Bunny’s Looney Christmas Tales!”
