Episode 56: The Christmas Season Starts Earlier Each Year
Available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and iHeartRadio.
In this episode, we reflect on how the Christmas Season used to start after Thanksgiving and now starts the day after Halloween with Christmas decorations available for purchase in early October. We also talk about Lehigh County Republican Dean Browning and the controversy surrounding his viral tweet and we briefly discuss the Pfizer and Moderna COVID vaccines. We spend most of the episode talking about the predictable nature of Christmas movies on the Hallmark Channel, our thoughts on ‘Jingle Jangle’ on Netflix, and Spencer’s memories of the 1989 film ‘Polly.’
