Happy Tuesday! This is a special week – we’re celebrating our 5th Anniversary here at Tis the Podcast. We hope you enjoyed the Spectacular yesterday!

We are closing out our Classic Christmas in July with The Mary Tyler Moore Show! In this episode, titled Christmas and the Hard Luck Kid II, Mary has to face the holiday alone at the office.

Matt goes into this episode with fresh eyes having never watched a full episode of the show before. He explains (as much as he can) what the episode title means and, as always, determines whether or not this iconic episode should be deemed a holiday classic. Be sure to stick around until the end the find out what is coming up later this year when we kick off the third season of the podcast!

Seasons Eatings

This candy for the holidays is reminiscent of berries in new fallen snow or it may be part of your favourite chocolate covered candy bar.  It’s a candy whose origins can be traced all the way back to the tenth century.  While it’s called many different names depending on where in the world it’s made, there’s no denying it’s part of a classic Christmas dessert platter.  We’re exploring the history and origins of this creamy marshmallow-like dessert: nougat.

Happy Christmas in July! Buckle up, because this episode has a little bit of everything in it –

I finally catch up with Gracie and she talks about her role in our community theater’s production of The Sound of Music. We then talk about our trip to Bronner’s Christmas Store, and of course had to taste test some cookies I picked up from there. After that we get very silly and attempt to talk in British accents (with horrible results) and I do my worst impression of Kermit the Frog – (with apologies to Tim Babb and the Can’t Wait for Christmas Podcast – you can keep your Imaginary Listener Who Kind of Sounds Like Kermit the Frog!)

After that author Nat Bickel stops by to read her new Christmas short story “The Adventures of Phoebe’s Christmas Dwarf” which is going to be published this fall in a new collection of heartwarming Christmas stories.

Remember to honor Christmas in your heart, and try to keep it all the year… this episode will surely help you do that!
