What’s up, dudes? Clue is one my family’s favorite board games. I’m joined by my brother Danny to talk about the British game show version of it. Yes, there was an extended Christmas special and everything! We’re talking Cluedo “Christmas Past, Christmas Present!”
It’s Christmas Day at Arlington Grange, and the lady of the manor, Mrs. Peacock, has invited a few close friends to share the turkey dinner. Richard Forrest, former owner of the estate, has come calling dressed as Father Christmas and he brought his chauffeur Ken. His father was a judge, and all of the suspects appeared before him in court at one time or other. He also kept diaries with his own thoughts of who was guilty.
Just like the movie, the guest brings gifts for each suspect, distributing deadly weapons. Each weapon insinuates their guilt in a court case. During a Christmas scavenger hunt quiz game, Ken the chauffeur is found dead! He was the real Forrest and wanted to blackmail Peacock so she would sell him back the manor. Consequently, Miss Scarlett, who just discovered her liver Col. Mustard was having an affair with her stepmother Peacock, realized the scheme. She killed the real Forrest with the weapon Peacock was given to remove the blackmailer and to throw suspicion onto her.
Murder? Check. Christmas quiz? Got it. Father Christmas robes? Only if the murder victim can wear it! So grab your knife, hunt for clues, and play along to this episode on Cluedo “Christmas Past, Christmas Present!”

We’re sizzling all the way into a Festive Fans milestone moment — it’s our two-year anniversary and we’re inviting you to join the celebration!
For 50 episodes, we’ve been traveling the globe and unwrapping the world’s best gifts — Christmas movies, music, and memories found in so many different places. We have visited nearly every continent and observed the unique traditions and customs found in other countries. It’s heartwarming to realize how, despite our language barriers and cultural differences, we all still enjoy a festive connection and share a little holiday magic, be it delivered by a saint, a goat, a witch, 3 Kings, or a log.
After two years, listeners should know that being a Festive Fan requires more than just curiosity. Whether you’ve been with us from the start or just jumped aboard recently, we don’t believe the Christmas spirit is limited to one specific season. You can always find time to share joy, wonder, and generosity throughout the year.
In a society that likes to highlight those unfortunate traits that set us apart, Festive Foreign Film Fans offers a welcome alternative. Our podcast is a window into the colorful history and vibrant experiences of other cultures. Knowledge provides the bridges we need to cross over our perceived divides of race, nationality, religion, and politics. By embracing and understanding our foreign neighbors, we can focus on finding common ground instead of obsessing over our differences. As Festive Fans, we should all feel a little more human together.
This is the true reason for our celebration. So, grab an El Presidente Margarita and raise a toast to the festive stories, laughter, and community that we have enjoyed for these two wonderful years. And get ready for Season Three. We are still going strong and the excitement is just starting to build!

While Julia enjoys Disney World with her family, Thom and Anthony soldier on by tackling something Julia has successfully avoided for years – Family Guy! In this episode, the guys review six of Seth MacFarlane’s Christmas specials, from the classic “A Very Special Family Guy Freakin’ Christmas” to “How the Griffin Stole Christmas.”
Which episodes capture genuine holiday spirit? Which ones rely too heavily on failed attempts at humor? And which ones earn a perfect 10 on the Family Guy scale? Tom and Anthony don’t always agree in their ratings, but they share plenty of memorable quotes and scenes along the way.
Plus, they discuss the new Harry Potter HBO casting, complain about the cost of Disney World, and count down the days to Christmas!
Listen now and join us next week for Part 2 of the Family Guy Christmas marathon!
Don’t forget to leave us a review – they’re the best Christmas-in-June gift you could give us! 🎁

What’s up, dudes? Remember when Sears, JC Penney, and Montgomery Wards would print wish books? Chad Young from Horror Movie BBQ and Michael May from After Lunch do, and they’re with me to look through the 1985 Sears Wish Book! From clothes to jewelry to toys, it had every gift idea you could possibly want!
The book starts off with a nice little poem, spread out every fourth page. What follows immediately are pages of value gifts, including an actual suit of armor. Then there are red pages of gifts under $100. Merry Christmas indeed! Next comes women’s fashions followed by jewelry and girls attire. Of course, boys clothes, shoes, men’s wear, and accessories come next.
After the Christmas decorations are a wide variety of appliances, clocks, dish ware, and sports gear. The best part of the entire publication follows: toys! After the Super Powers line, GoBots, Transformers, and Voltron are highlighted! The relatively new Sectaurs line gets a whole page, and both GI Joe and He-Man get double spreads! Return of the Jedi gets a page, and M.A.S.K. Shares a page with Wheeled Warriors!
Subsequently, Barbies, stuffies, TVs, and cameras get entire sections devoted to them.
Dual cassette decks? Check. Oversized fleece terry pullovers? Got ‘em. Masters of the Universe soft and snuggly slippers? Definitely! So grab your Omagles, pick up your pool cue, and scour through this episode on the 1985 Sears Wish Book!
