A classic Christmas tale but from a new perspective.
🎄 It’s 1979, by way of 1933 — or the other way around — and the human from Fraggle Rock has broken into my garage with a haunted choir of singing children.
Join us as we turn the dial on our haunted time-traveling radio to find Henry Winkler at the height of his fame as the Fonz hiding under multiple layers of makeup as a Scrooge figure in Great Depression-era New England.

It’s December, so that means it’s time for the AIPT Movies podcast’s “Holidanger” series! Where we cover the best kind of holiday movie: the ones where lives are on the line! In this week’s episode, Alex, Tim, and Matt discuss Richard Donner’s surprisingly dark and funny modern retelling of Charles Dickens’ Christmas classic, Scrooged!
A wonderful cast that features Bill Murray at what may be his all-time scummiest! A fake Lee Majors action movie! Bob Goulet's Old Fashioned Cajun Christmas! Timeless special effects mixed with classic Hollywood cinematography! The best interpretation of A Christmas Carol that doesn’t include Muppets! A perfect Christmas movie that captures the spirit of the season while also being oddly terrifying, funny, and deep! A mashup of several genres that leaves you feeling warm and fuzzy while also scaring the “Dickens” out of you!
In addition, Alex shares his spoiler-free thoughts on Blue Beetle, Equalizer 3, and Eli Roth’s long-awaited Thanksgiving!

In this episode, Karol discusses the controversy surrounding YouTube personality Mr. Beast's philanthropic efforts in Africa and the criticism he faced for monetizing his good deeds. Author Faith Moore joins to discuss his new book "Christmas Karol", which explores societal expectations and the balance between work and family life. The conversation challenges the narrative that women should prioritize their careers over spending time with their children and emphasizes the importance of making choices that align with personal values and desires. Moore also highlights the devaluation of children in society and the need to prioritize family. The Karol Markowicz Show is part of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Podcast Network - new episodes debut every Monday & Thursday.

🎄 After spending 3 months locked in a water tower, the Advent Calendar House has escaped in time for Christmas Podcast Day, a fake holiday originally made up for a hashtag back when social media was slightly less stupid.
It’s not Scrooge Sunday, but the theme for this year’s Christmas Podcast Day is “A Christmas Carol,” so I’m playing a long, but also cheating a little by covering both segments of a 1993 Christmas episode of “Animaniacs.”
You can follow #ChristmasPodcastDay on Facebook, Instagram, and that other one. And probably TikTok, but I’m not on that.

This week we get spooky as we talk all things Poe, including the various stories about him that likely didn't happen. Plus we look ahead to next week where the spookiness of the season can't help but shape our next episode.

We have an incredibly insightful interview with Michele & Kieran Mulroney. If you haven’t listened to both episodes of their show The Sleeping Father, you must do so now. It’s truly outstanding! This interview is crucial for anyone who wants to know the real story of how so many careers in Hollywood go. It’s mandatory listening for aspiring writers and striking writers in a dry spell creatively. Michele & Kieran talk about getting their start in the business, adapting Dickens for dogs, and they discuss the ten year draught they had where they wrote a dozen spec screenplays that didn’t sell. You’re going to hear how they broke that losing streak in the best way possible: writing exactly what they wanted to write. It’s a must listen for anyone aspiring to work in Hollywood.
