Happy November. With spooky month behind us, we are in full-on Christmas mode at the Tis the Podcast workshop. This week, the elves subjected themselves to the 1964 comedy(?) Santa Conquers the Martians. No spoilers here, but the length of the episode may allude to how they felt.

Happy Monday, Christmas fanatics! Can you believe we’ve already reached the official final installment of 2021’s Spooky Month? We sure as heck can’t! Nevertheless, we planned all along on going out with a bang! So, to celebrate the occasion, Julia, Thom, and Anthony are joined by the always awesome and insanely knowledgeable Jay Skipworth of the extraordinarily fun, “Film Strip Podcast” to discuss the iconic, 1978, John Carpenter film, “Halloween“! Join the four of us as we take a deep dive into the cult classic and explore the impact that Carpenter, the film franchise he spawned, and the boogeyman himself – Michael Myers – have had on the film industry today, and help us bid Halloween adieu as we creep ever closer to November and the official start of the Christmas season! This is one fun and fascinating episode you want to be sure not to miss – especially if you’re a fan of horror films and slasher films! So don your sweaters, grab your pumpkin spice lattes, take a stroll down the leafy streets of Haddonfield with us, and enjoy this fun episode!

Happy Thursday, Christmas fanatics! Welcome to the thirty-eighth official installment of “Another Christmas Story”!

Due to some unforeseen scheduling confusion last week, this week’s installment of our tale, Chapter Thirty-Seven, entitled, “Fairytale of New York”, will be read to you by Kim Cooper of “Planning For Christmas” and “Tis the Podcast’s” very own Thom Crowe! We hope you like it! If you do, make sure to share this episode and our website, upon which the text of this installment is posted, to get it in front of as many ears and eyes as possible!

Happy Monday, Christmas fanatics! Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day and, to our Canadian friends and family, Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!

Join Julia, Thom, and Anthony as they continue their journey through Spooky Season by traveling back in time to the fictional town of Woodsboro, California – 1996 – to cover the satirical-horror film, “Scream“! While this is one of Anthony’s favorite movies of all time, Thom hasn’t seen it since it came out and Julia has never seen it in full despite it being such a cultural zeitgeist! What do our two Oklahomans think of it? Does it stand the test of time or is it outdated? And did the film set out to fulfill its mission of not only deconstructing the most iconic scary movies that everybody knows, but also becoming one of the greats itself? Tune in to find out the answers to all of these questions and much, much more in this fun episode full of well-researched (for once!) trivia and a wide-ranging discussion!

Also in this episode, the elves read listener feedback regarding the following questions:

• 1. Who would you cast in a “Sesame Street” version of “A Christmas Carol“?
• 2. What is the worst Christmas gift you’ve ever received?
• 3. What are the “rules” to survive an episode of “Tis the Podcast“?

So, settle in with your favorite Autumn-flavored drink, open those windows to let in that Fall breeze, and enjoy! This is one spooky episode you want to be sure not to miss!

And if you want even more “Tis the Podcast“, check your podcast feeds this upcoming Tuesday (tomorrow!) to hear Chapter Thirty-Six of “Another Christmas Story” entitled “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)”, which Matt Spaulding of “2 Broke Geeks“, “The F.B.I.’s Most Unwanted“, and “Green Mountain Santa” will be reading to you! The delay comes after a bit of confusion in which both our very own Thom and Kim Cooper, of “Planning for Christmas” both ended up reading Chapter Thirty-Seven, so Chapter Thirty-Six wasn’t ready to release next week as it wasn’t recorded! Never fear though, in addition to Chapter Thirty-Six dropping tomorrow, check your feeds this upcoming Thursday to hear a mash-up of both Thom and Kim reading Chapter Thirty-Seven of our tale, entitled, “Fairytale of New York”! Enjoy, y’all! 🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🚂🔔 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️
