Happy Thanksgiving! Here’s a bonus episode where we pick 10 more songs for a Thanksgiving playlist, including tracks by Ben Folds, Kristy MacColl, Sam and Dave, Burl Ives, and more.
If you missed it, be sure to check out our latest episode, where we discussed The Nutcracker (1993), Louis Armstrong, Pomplamoose, and Rankin Bass. We’ll be back with a new episode after Thanksgiving!
In this episode, we review the 1964 United Nations-produced TV movie Carol for Another Christmas. We also discuss Arthur Fiedler’s “Sleigh Ride,” Brian Wilson’s “The Man With All the Toys,” and an operatic version of It’s a Wonderful Life.
We’re back for our fifth season, and we start by revisiting Scrooged (1988), a film neither of us has really enjoyed in the past. Will we change our minds this time?
Next we discuss Bing Crosby’s “Jingle Bells,” followed by “Hang an Ornament” by Grandaddy and Band of Horses.
Finally, we discuss some Christmas episodes of the Hit Parade Podcast.
Sorry for the weird random static sounds that pop up a few times near the beginning. It may have been because of the football game I was watching. I think it has something to do with my cell phone, but it is never consistent enough to find the problem. I’ll keep trying!
We’ll be kicking off Season 5 of Snow in Southtown very soon, but for now here’s a bonus episode (Stocking Stuffer 17) that was originally posted on our Patreon on December 19, 2022. This is a playlist featuring songs that were discussed throughout Season 4 of our show, including tracks by the Four Seasons, Elvis, Kenny & Dolly, The Beatles, and more!
Be sure to check out all of the awesome podcasts releasing episodes today, and we’ll have a new episode to share very soon!
