Drew you hear what I hear? It's another Mystery to Me episode about Nancy Drew, just in time for the holiday season!
"Will the Real Santa Claus...?" aired just shy of Christmas Eve, on December 18, 1977. It's the twelfth episode of the second season of the The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries. But there are no twelve drummers drumming in sight! No, just Pamela Sue Martin playing our favorite Yuletide sleuth Nancy Drew.
In this episode, Santa Claus goes on the run after witnessing a drug deal. Hitmen are after old St. Nick, and his reindeer and elves are nowhere to found! Nancy's the only one who can save the day in this holly jolly hot mess of a show. There's also a terrifying burglary sub-plot. And special guest star Rick Springfield, as a better, hotter Ned Nickerson!
Listen to Áine and Kevin deck the halls with discussions of nudity, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and scary St. Nicks.
We recorded this episode in 2020 when we were living in Brooklyn, not yet married, and unfamiliar with the ways of podcasting. Please forgive any early podcast difficulties in our sound or otherwise.
Also, happy holidays to all you wonderful listeners from the Mystery to Me team!
