Happy Christmas Eve, everybody! Can you believe tomorrow’s the big day and that Santa’s already set out on his annual trip!?
To celebrate the occasion, please enjoy our annual Christmas Eve story, in which the elves read Ivan Cohen’s “Batman Returns: One Dark Christmas Eve“, the children’s adaptation of the Tim Burton holiday classic, “BatmanReturns“, illustrated by J.J. Harrison! While this storybook is written to be read to the tune of “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen“, have no fear – the elves have no intention of making your ears bleed today and thus don’t sing the tale as it’s meant to be delivered!
So take a break from the wrapping, settle back with your favorite holiday drink beside your Christmas tree in order to bask in its glow, and enjoy!
As always, thanks for your love and support, y’all! Make sure to check your feeds tomorrow – Monday, December 25th, Christmas Day itself – for our episode on season two of the legacy sequel series, “The Santa Clauses“!
Have a very Merry Christmas! We hope you have an amazing one, filled with food, drinks, laughter, and loved ones, and we hope that the big man in red brings you everything you asked for! We’re looking forward to counting down to Christmas 2024 with all of y’all! 🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🚂🔔 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️

It’s Christmas Eve! The best day of the year. To help you celebrate, here is the final parts to our story this month, “Christmas at Thompson Hall” by Anthony Trollope. I rearranged my publication schedule a little bit and decided to combine the last two parts into one episode. I’ve had a lot of episodes come out this week, and didn’t want to clog up your podcast feed TOO much. If you’re interested in listening to the whole story, here are the links:
I know it says there will be 4 parts, but it’s just 3. Sorry for any confusion!
Alright, I will have one more Christmas episode out on December 27th. Yes it will be two days after Christmas, but that’s ok. Christmas is a season, not just a day!

It’s Christmas Eve or Christmas Eve Eve depending on where you live. Or it was Christmas if you’re listening to it later.
We start with a lovely story from Jimmy ‘Buffalo’ Hall, telling about his parents’ first Christmas tree as a married couple.
Then it’s the quiz and to help with the answers we have Todd Killian from Christmas Clatter podcast.
Check out his pod here:

Then I recite from memory, How The Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr Seuss.
Next up we have a song from Adam Kennedy’s comedy album.

What’s up, dudes? Trolls were big in the ‘80s, and this special proves it! Sean Sotka from the Christmas Podcasts Podcast joins me to talk “The Trolls and the Christmas Express!”
Led by the nefarious Troglo, a group of trolls infiltrate Santa’s workshop by disguising themselves in elf clothes. Their goal is to sabotage Christmas. They use their troll magic to warp and deform the toys, but the elves counter with their own elven charms. Consequently, the trolls, now in charge of the reindeer stables, perform a rousing musical number all night long. This kept the reindeer up for hours. Yes, they rocked and rolled all night long and partied everyday—the day of December 24th, that is. Exhausted, they can’t pull the sleigh across the world. All hope is not lost, however, as Santa teaches the trolls the meaning of the word “troll.” He shows them its use in the carol “Deck the Hall,” and together they ride the Christmas Express to deliver toys!
Songs? Check. Trains? Uh huh. Dancing reindeer? Definitely! So put on your elf clothes, grab your toys, and hop on the train to this episode on “The Trolls and the Christmas Express!”
