It’s that magical time of year again—no, not Christmas, but the Hallmark October Ornament Debut!
Join the Christmas Cousins as they welcome back pop culture expert and holiday legend, The Christmas Aficionado himself. Together, they dive into the glitzy world of Hallmark’s latest ornament haul.
What treasures did the Aficionado score? Which ones got snatched off the shelves before he could grab them?
And most importantly, what must-have pieces should Cousin Seth add to his growing festive collection?
Expect lots of laughs, plenty of holiday cheer, and perhaps some serious ornament envy in this delightful mini-haul episode.
Audience Question:
Which Hallmark ornament from this year’s debut do you think should be the centerpiece of Cousin Seth’s collection? Let us know, and don’t forget to tag us @ChristmasCousinsPod with your suggestions!

What’s up, dudes? Stephen King has had a huge influence in the horror genre, and that includes werewolves. Jeremy Phelps the Alamo City Santa is with me to talk all about the 1985 movie “Silver Bullet!” In a small town, it’s hard to hide as a bat-wielding bear-like werewolf (bear-wolf?), unless you’re a reverend, of course.
Siblings Marty and Jane have a contentious relationship. Things get crazy when people start dying around the full moon. At first, the deaths are chalked up to accidents, but when a young boy is torn to shreds, a posse forms. Naturally, more deaths follow.
Marty attracts the werewolf’s attention shooting off fireworks, but manages to injure its eye. Consequently, he enlists Jane’s help in tracking down the culprit, searching for one-eyed persons. They discover Rev. Lowe with a new eyepatch, and confront him. He attacks, but is killed when their uncle shoots him with the specially crafted bullet. All’s well that ends well.
Small town? Check. Rubber snakes? Yep. Rocket powered motorbike wheelchair? Only if Gary Busey made it! So grab your fireworks, hop in your own Silver Bullet, and ride the rickety bridge to this episode!

Welcome back, Cousins, to a cozy, joyful episode filled with brotherly banter, nostalgia, and holiday warmth…Christmas Cousins style!
Joe, the Christmas Aficionado is back with a forgotten Christmas tradition!
In this heartwarming follow-up, Joe is joined by his brother to set the record straight on the mystery tradition that made their childhood Christmases truly magical. With a “bit of a stumble, boff” on the first go, Joe is determined to give this story the attention it deserves.
Is this tradition something Cousin Seth, our ever-learning Seasonal Sophomore, can now add to his festive plans?
Will the Christmas Cousins (and their listeners) pick up some new holiday inspiration?
It’s a can’t-miss episode of the Christmas Aficionado Brothers Meet the Christmas Cousins!

This week, we are honored to welcome to the main show for the very first time ever Chris Evans of “Gathering of the Geeks” and “DC Unlimited” to discuss the beloved 1987 family-horror film, “The Monster Squad“!
Join us as we dive deep into our histories, walk through the plot, talk the Universal Monsters, praise all of the cheesy eighties effects, writing, and music, and much, much more! Be warned though: there is some *slight* language used in our discussion, but as it’s in service of a cheesy eighties flick, we thought it appropriate not to censor it this time around since, you know, it was basically PG-rated dialogue forty-years ago!
So lock your doors, grab your crucifixes and garlic, turn out the lights, settle in with your favorite Autumn-themed drink, and enjoy this extraordinarily fun episode that we guarantee is the perfect way to kickstart your week and inject some much needed Halloween spirit into your Monday morning! As always, y’all, thanks for your love and support! ❤️ 🍂 🎃👻🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🔔🚂 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️
Happy October everyone! In today’s episode I share how I am getting ready for the fall weather – it mostly involves apple crisp! I’d love to hear from you and some of your favorite recipes to make during the fall and Christmas season!
I hope your plans for fall come together better than the main character in today’s story by O. Henry. In “The Cop and the Anthem”, we follow Soapy, a homeless man living in New York City, who has an interesting plan on how to hunker down for the winter…
There’s also a special opportunity from the Christmas Podcast Network to purchase a Christmas ornament, with 100% of the proceeds going to charity!

What’s up, dudes? It’s a beloved holiday staple, and it’s turning 70 years old! Yes, the 1954 Bing Crosby/Danny Kaye classic “White Christmas,” first released on video in 1986! Ken Kessler from Sounds of Christmas, Scott Leopold from Holly Jolly X’masu, and Jeremy Phelps the Alamo City Santa join me to reminisce about the crooner and the comic and the song that gives all the Christmas feels!
Private Davis saves Captain Wallace’s life in the war, and so they team up as a performing duo. As big time stars, they seek out the sisters of an old army buddy who are performing as a singing act. After rescuing the sisters from a scam, they follow them to Vermont to spend Christmas relaxing and skiing. As it turns out, the inn they’re staying at is owned by their formal General.
Seeing how the lack of snowfall has crippled his inn, the quartet sets out to change his fortunes. They concoct a scheme to get their old unit back together. Meanwhile, the quartet get all Hallmark-y and lovey-dovey. There are classic miscommunications and misconceptions, but all’s well that ends well. Oh, and it snows, too!
Musical numbers? Check. Choreographed dance sequences? For sure. Christmas? Well, at the very beginning and very end, at least. So put on your Santa suit, sing “White Christmas,” and celebrate the 70th anniversary of this classic!
Pumpkinhead tries to stay away from Jay because he’s still being gross. Jeff wishes he had stayed away from this movie. Also these titles are getting ridiculous.
Ken Kessler from the Sounds of Christmas talks to Alicia and Victor from Fans Of Jimmy Century about Halloween music and Christmas music, and their new album “A Coupla Holiday Spirits (Halloween Perils and Christmas Carols)”!
