I’ve been ill so don’t give me a hard time if this episode isn’t up to the usual standard.

We start with a Christmas Not So Classic this time it’s 21st Century Christmas an attempt by Cliff Richard to get a Number one single in his 6th consecutive decade.  It’s not that bad…   or that good.

Our Self-appointed podcast barman Bob Baker explains the difference between Pissed and Pissed depending on which side of the Atlantic you’re on.

Then we have a new segment.  I bought a Christmas quiz game at my local car boot sale and you all get to have a go at the questions.

Then Mike Westfall from The Advent Calendar House podcast tells us all about how he found out about Santa Claus.

This episode’s What The Dickens looks at 4 different words or phrases that are used in the description of Scrooge.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas.

We’re back with more holiday action hijinks! This week, in honor of the recently departed Ray Liotta, we take a look at his 1997 airplane thriller Turbulence!

It’s Christmas Eve and the feds need to escort a number of criminals, including the Lonely Hearts Strangler, from New York to Los Angeles. When all hell breaks loose and every officer and pilot onboard have been killed, it’s up to flight attendant Lauren Holly to fend off the killer and safely land the plane.

Turbulence is more of a Christmas movie that we honestly expected. Join us as we examine all of its holiday trappings, as well as how it relates to It’s A Wonderful Life, the other 1997 “criminals take over a plane” movie Con Air, basic cable programming of yesteryear, and more!

Sounds of Christmas

Ken Kessler from the Sounds of Christmas plays segments from the Modern Mann podcast as Ollie Peart takes on a listener challenge to make a Christmas hit (which turns out being called “The Sounds Of Christmas”)! Ken guides you through the journey when the listener first emails about the challenge, and then all the way through the creation of the song, the selection of a charity and the inclusion of the podcast community (plus follow-ups on how the song did, how much money was raised and how Ollie created a video with the help of listeners).

Welcome to episode 53 of Holly Jolly X’masu! In this episode, I’ll be discussing Naomi Sagara’s 1975 album, “White Christmas.”

I’ve mentioned before how collecting Japanese Christmas albums can sometimes be a real crap shoot. So many of them, especially older ones, have no presence online, so I often have no idea how they’ll sound once I finally get them. This was another of those cases where I pleasantly surprised with the results. While some of the songs are dated, I truly enjoy the entire album and it’s one that I’ve returned to multiple times since getting it.

As I said in this episode, I was really taken by Naomi Sagara’s voice. There’s a pleasing quality to it I really enjoy. I looked up several of her songs on YouTube and was also impressed by her stage presence in her live performances. Despite the difficulties she faced, her reputation as a performer appears to have rebounded and her songs maintain a following to this day.

The World Is For Two People

Why Not, As Long As You’re Happy

I hope you’ve enjoyed learning about Naomi Sagara and listening to “White Christmas.” Join me next month for Christmas in July. I’ll be starting things off with something a little different. Instead of a Christmas album, I’ll be covering Yumi Matsutoya’s City Pop classic, “Surf & Snow – Volume One.” It’s a fantastic album with a mix of summer and winter-themed songs, including one of the biggest and most popular Japanese Christmas songs, “Koibito ga Santa Claus.” Then join me on the 25th for my third annual Christmas In July episode. I have some really fun songs lined up for it. If I can find a little extra free time, I might even throw out an extra episode or two.

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!

Seasons Eatings

Sometimes called the Norwegian pancake, this thin bread can be compared to a tortilla or a crepe.  It was originally made from flour, but now is almost exclusively made from potatoes.  Traditionally they are stored in small wooden boxes, or just between layers of cloth.  We’re discovering the history and origins of this Viking foodstuff: lefse.

In addition to gushing over his favorite show, Matt debuts two brand new segments for the show. The first one up is called “Christmas Connection” while the second is still in need of a name! Don’t be afraid to offer up a suggestion! As always, we will determine if this episode should be deemed a holiday classic! Matt also discusses why there was such a lull between recordings (including two major life milestones) and he talks about what is ahead the rest of the year.
