Title: Episode 37: The Christmas Music of Die Hard
We are very proud to announce that Scott is teaming up with Brandon Gray from Deck the Hallmark this holiday to create a short-run weekday podcast called “Christmas Morning”. The format will be something like a daily advent calendar and they will discuss Christmas news, cover the Christmas specials on television that night, do a Christmas countdown, and then finish each episode with two Christmas songs from Bandcamp.
Christmas Morning will launch on November 29th on its own feed, but we’re dropping the preview episode in the Jingle Jank feed to give everyone a taste. We hope you enjoy it!
