In a secret office, Patch is hard at work on a “delivery system”. BZ and Towzer knock on the door to show Patch the potential prototypes for the “something special”. After Patch makes his pick, a choice on what color it should be has to be made. Get ready for a deep dive into Dr. Eric Towzer’s favorite color : puce! Featuring fleas, Marie Antoinette, Mike Wazowski, vintage bottle collectors, and the Golden Girls! Plus: We attempt to fix a glaring Wikipedia oversight, talk about Patch’s total lack of planning, dream of a world where we can order a Puce Juice from Starbucks, and more! Join us as we discuss Minute 70 of Santa Claus: The Movie (1985).

Apologies about the sound quality on this episode, my voice sounds canned almost. I wasn’t able to fix it in this episode but will for Part 3 of this series!
In today’s episode we explore the history of snowmen in art, politics, and expression. We also briefly touch on the Yeti, shallowly diving in to the origins and history. Lastly, we conclude with Part 2 of our Lost Years of Santa Claus story. I hope you enjoy!

Patch reveals the secret ingredient for the “something special” to BZ. Then, BZ and his associate, Dr. Towzer, head into one of BZ’s now-abandoned toy factories to check on Patch’s progress. We take a close look at the inside of BZ’s factory/warehouse, continue to be annoyed with the “something special” being called a “toy”, and spot some more product placement. All this and another classic Elf Pun! Join us as we discuss Minute 69 of Santa Claus: The Movie (1985).

Happy August, Christmas Fanatics! We’re one month closer to our favorite time of year and the elves couldn’t be more excited!
To kick off the last stretch of summer before the Ber Months (!!!), Anthony, Julia, and Thom are joined by Gerry D of “Totally Rad Christmas” for another double feature of an episode in which we cover the Christmas episodes of HBO’s critically acclaimed comedy series “Curb Your Enthusiasm” (Season 3, Episode 9, “Mary, Joseph, and Larry”) and TruTV’s hit-comedy “I’m Sorry” (Season 2, Episode 4, “Couple’s Massage”). As you can imagine from the shows discussed, this episode is definitely not be the most appropriate one for tiny ears – no matter how much we attempt to tiptoe around certain subject matter – so do your best to keep yourself on the nice list and listen away from any children who might be around! Enjoy, y’all!.

We’ve come to the final chapter of The Christmas Hirelings by Mary Elizabeth Braddon! It’s a tear jerker for sure… or is just me?
In this chapter, when Moppet is struck dangerously ill (as so frequently happens to children in Victorian literature), Sir John must come to terms with his love for the little girl. They are not sure whether Moppet will live or die, and then the children’s mother shows up… and Sir John’s life may never be the same again.
Grab some eggnog and box of kleenex… and enjoy this cozy Victorian Christmas story!

Welcome to episode 32 of Holly Jolly X’masu! In this episode, I wrap up my coverage of Ryoko Moriyama with 1981’s “The Christmas Album – Greetings from Ryoko Moriyama.”
The Christmas Album – Greetings from Ryoko Moriyama – 1981
It’s been a real pleasure presenting these albums to you. Like a lot of these artists, I wasn’t familiar with Ryoko Moriyama before discovering her Christmas albums. She’s truly been one of the high points in my collecting and podcasting journey.
Naotaro Moriyama – Wasremono – 2001
Thanks for listening, and I hope you’ve enjoyed Ryoko Moriyama’s music as much as I have. I hope this month’s episodes have also helped you enjoy your Christmas in July. I’d wanted to get them out a little earlier, but unexpected delays pushed them back to the last half of the month. Be sure to listen in next month as I discuss Zen Records’ “We Wish You a Merry Christmas,” from 1984. It’s one of the more eclectic Christmas compilations from the 80s and and you don’t want to miss it.
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. Any donations received will be put towards purchasing 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!
This week, Jay and Scott explore Christmas songs written about animals. Artists include Merle Haggard, Roger Whittaker, Biagio, the Eels, Gretchen Wilson, and The Moffatts.
