Happy September, Christmas Fanatics! And Happy Labor Day! We made it to the most wonderful time of the year! The Ber Months have arrived, and with it, the official start of Spooky Season!
To kick things off, Julia, Thom, and Anthony gather to discuss the 1968, George Romero classic, “Night of the Living Dead“! There’s no overplaying how important this film in the pantheon of horror cinema and cinema in general, but how does it play for our three elves? You’ll just have to tune in to find out!
So settle back with your Pumpkin Spice Lattes, relax, and enjoy!
As always, thanks for your love and support, y’all! 🍂🎃👻🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🚂🔔 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️

What’s up, dudes? Thunder! Thunder! Thunder! ThunderCats Christmas! Hoooooo!!!! Nicholas Pepin of Pop Culture Roulette and Laramy Wells from Moving Panels join me to talk about the humanoid feline aliens!
In the issue #41 story ‘Footprints’ from 1987, Cat’s Lair is directly in the path of a creature called the Metokangmi! King Hanuman of Hook Mountain warns the ThunderCats, describing the destruction and fear in the creature’s wake. Every Rammastide (the Third Earth equivalent of Christmas which commemorates the first defeat of Mumm-Ra) the inhabitants live in fear. Fortunately, this year Cat’s Lair reminds the Metokangmi of its lost mate, and it just builds a snowman.
Subsequently, issue #89 sees WilyKit and WilyKat build a snowman in the shape of Lion-O. Of course, the Mutants decide to crash the ThunderCats’ Rammastide festivities, knocking over the snowman. Luckily, the intruder alarm alerted the heroes who quickly hid as snow sculptures and overtake the foes. The heroes then invite them in to celebrate.
Finally, in issue #128, Snarf is home alone preparing a feast on Rammas Eve, when a traveling salesman tries to cash in. The sidekick tries to haggle with him, making a huge mess. As the ThunderCats return, they invite Snarf and the salesman to the Tower of Omens for Rammastide.
Fierce beasts? Yep. Crazy art? Uh huh. Poontang? Only if it’s the name of the traveling salesman! So grab your Sword of Omen and let it give you sight beyond sight for this episode on ThunderCats Christmas comics!

We begin the show by looking at a Christmas Not So Classic. This one is from one of the biggest bands of all time, U2. They recorded a version of the British classic I Believe In Father Christmas, and it’s okay.
Here’s a link:
Then Bob Baker is looking for Christmas in Where Are You Christmas, and he finds it at Mount Rushmore (with thanks to Benji Pearson).
Next up it’s the quiz, and we have a little contoversy about some of my pronunciations in the last episode.
Halloween is on the horizon and in previous years listener Benji Pearson has dressed as ghosts from A Christmas Carol. This year he’s thinking of being the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come and he asks for my advice, of which I give him very little.
Then Bob is back with Do You Hear What I Hear and he’s looking at two weeks, or as us Brits would say ‘A fortnight’.
Check out Bob’s podcast here: https://4fpodcast.buzzsprout.com/
This episode’s version of A Christmas Carol is an episode of the western TV show Cimarron City. It’s an interesting one,

Welcome to Christmas Every Day! This is the show that keeps the spirit of Christmas going all year. This week, I reveal a Christmas “First” that I’m ashamed of AND very glad to achieve. Throw in the Christmas Character and Christmas Carol of the Week, and we’ve got a great show for you. Thank you so much for helping us keep the spirit of Christmas going every day!
Check out the Christmas Every Day Christmas Carol of the Week Spotify playlist at the link below:
This week’s guests are Black Market and Wise Owl (or Nate Bridges and Brandon Niznik) of the Los Angeles-based duo Black Market Dub. On their Bandcamp page, they introduce themselves with a series of questions: “What would happen if The Beach Boys had The Wailers as their backing band instead of The Wrecking Crew? What if David Bowie spent the summer of 1975 in Kingston, Jamaica with King Tubby instead of Philidelphia? Michael Jackson meets Scratch Perry?”
Many of their releases give us the answers to those question by wiping the backing tracks to some of the most famous songs from the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s and remaking the songs with dub-wise reggae instead. Their tracks with The Clash caught the ear of music critic Tim “Napalm” Stegall, who wrote about them on his Substack, and that’s where I found out about them.
Those tracks are fun but a little too respectful of the source material for my tastes. I prefer their true dub projects including their Christmas album, A Black Market Christmas, from 2022. It honors dub’s naturally psychedelic nature without selling out the Christmas classics.
We talk about their journey into dub, through a music teacher who introduced Brandon to the Trojan Box Set (we hear “The Death of Mr. Spock” by the Roots Radics Band) and Grand Theft Auto III, which introduced Nate and Brandon to Scientist and his 1981 classic, Scientist Rids the World of the Evil Curse of the Vampires (we hear “The Voodoo Curse).”
Nate and Brandon have also started a podcast, Playback, that features the two of them discussing albums and artists who are important to them. This summer they interviewed Scientist, and we talk about their debut episode from December 2024, which focused on Bob Dylan’s 2009 Christmas album Christmas in the Heart.
The vinyl Black Market Dub releases are available on Escape Hatch Records. Nate says there aren’t many copies of A Black Market Christmas left, so if you want one, get one.
