Welcome back Christmas Cousins for an experimental cinematic Hallmark journey!
Prepare for an intriguing holiday twist in our latest episode! In this installment, Cousin Seth dives headfirst into his sixth Hallmark movie experience, but here’s the twist – he’s experiencing it blindfolded!
Dear Christmas Cousins, get ready for a unique cinematic adventure that’s akin to an audiobook for your Christmas-loving hearts. Cousin Chad takes the lead, painting vivid scenes from the Hallmark Channel Classic, “Small Town Christmas,” while Seth navigates the story solely through these colorful narrations.
In a dramatic finale, Seth must channel his inner Roman Emperor and give the movie a resounding Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down. But the question remains: will he watch it for real after this adventurous audio journey?”
Don’t forget to please give us a rating, review and tell a fellow Christmas Cousin!

Listen to Matt talk about ‘Something Wild’ from Step By Step this week! He discusses how much he loves the Halloween decorations, the weirdly strong adult humor and why he can’t imagine anyone would get worked up roleplaying as Captain Kirk!
As always, we also determine whether or not this episode should be deemed a classic!

What’s up, dudes? Spooky season is here! I’ve got Michelle Kidwell from Michelle’s Spooky Library and Anthony Caruso from ‘Tis the Podcast with me to talk the Halloween episode ‘Hallowinnie‘ of the sitcom “Free Spirit!” It’s the 1989 sitcom about a good witch who becomes nanny(?)/housekeeper(?) to a divorcé and his 3 kids. Oh, and there’s Christmas in it too!
Jessie is waiting to see if she’s been accepted into the popular girls group the Debs. Meanwhile, Rob’s girlfriend has just dumped him, and his dad is eager to win a costume contest at his firm’s Halloween party. Jessie, in order to impress the Debs, holds her own Halloween party. It all goes wrong when Jessie is turned invisible and Winnie can’t undo the spell. Apparently, there’s so much magic being tossed around on Halloween night that Winnie’s power is diminished and running haywire. Luckily, while invisible, Jessie sees the Debs’ true colors, and, after Winnie finally fixes her spell, decides to dump them. They also fly their brooms across the moon. It’s a Halloween tradition, after all.
Corny jokes? Check. Zatanna-inspired costume? Yep. California raisin mistaken for rabbit droppings? Definitely! So grab your broom, put on your mask, and fly into this episode all about Halloween on “Free Spirit!”
Hello everyone, Happy October! In today’s episode I sit down with my daughter Grace and we catch up on life. Find out what she’s been up to this past year and how school is going for her now that she is in 9th grade. But of course, we do talk about Christmas – I find out she has some hot takes on gingerbread and which Grinch movie she prefers; we talk about who is the hardest and easiest person in our family to Christmas shop for; and then she shares some thoughts on how to show kindness during the Christmas season.
Then I read a beautiful Christmas letter sent in by a listener. She wrote it to her children and it’s entitled “Christmas Keeper” – and I hope that you or someone in your family is the official Keeper of Christmas!

Tune in to find out how Seth’s holiday spirit is shaping up! 🎅🎄

To officially kick-off Spooky Season, the elves welcome back the amazing Natalie Bickel to discuss the first live-action theatrical outing of the friendliest ghost you know, “Casper”! What do they think of this ’90’s classic that isn’t afraid to go quite dark and depressing at times? (Much to the uncomfortable amusement of one particular elf.) Especially given the fact that only two of them have seen the movie in full before? You’ll just have to tune in to find out!
Also discussed: Natalie’s published works; Julia’s continuing Adventures in Vudu-land; and much, much more! This is one fun episode you want to be sure not to miss!
So, settle in with your Pumpkin Spice Lattes, relax, and enjoy! As always, thanks for your love and support, y’all!
Ken from the Sounds of Christmas talks about the change the station has undergone to become the Sounds of Halloween, and with that in mind, he decided to take a look at the classic TV families the Addams Family and the Munsters, and the music they’ve made (and inspired) over the years!

Welcome to episode 89 of Holly Jolly X’masu! In this episode, I talk about the 1992 compilation, “Winter Tales 2,” from the MIDI label.
I hope you’ve enjoyed MIDI’s wintry compilations over the last two episodes. Despite the repetitiveness, there are some real gems included on them. I’m looking forward to revisiting a few of the artists when I cover their other Christmas songs.
I wasn’t sure I’d be able to get this episode out this month, but I made it just under the wire. I’m caught up for the moment, and I’m hoping I’ll have enough time to stay ahead of schedule the rest of the year. I have some great episodes planned and I’m going to do my best to get to them all.
Join me back here next month as I cover a couple of really great albums. Up first is Jazz singer Yuki Izumine’s 2008 alubm, “Let It Snow!” Then join me for another fantastic compilation, “Christmas Songs,” from 2010. Plus, keep in mind that November 1st is Christmas Podcast Day. A bunch of us Christmas podcasters will be releasing special episodes. Stay tuned for further details.
As always, any feedback on this episode would be appreciated. If have any suggestions, or if you’d like to recommend a song or album for a future episode, drop me a line and let me know.
Remember, I’ve added a button to my Ko-fi page. If you’d like to support me one cup of coffee at a time, a donation is only $3. I’ve also opened a Redbubble store. I only have a couple designs up, but keep an eye on it as I’ll be trying to add more. Half of any proceeds or donations received will be donated to support the people of Ukraine, while the rest will be used to purchase new Japanese Christmas music to review for future episodes. You can also find me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. And if you get a chance, leave me a review on iTunes. Thanks!

Welcome to episode 88 of Holly Jolly X’masu! In this episode, I talk about the 1988 compilation, “Winter Tales,” from the MIDI label.
As I said in the episode, this is a really solid album. You’d be hard pressed to find a more varied group of artists, but the resulting product flows together well. There really isn’t a bad track here. I hope you found at least a few you enjoyed.
Be sure to join me back here in a few days for the 1992 follow-up, “Winter Tales 2.” Then listen in next month as a I cover a great Jazz album from 2008, Yuki Izumine’s “Let It Snow!”, and another great compilation, “Christmas Songs,” from 2010. You’re sure to enjoy them.
