It’s International Women’s Day, and so we’re doing songs about Mrs. Claus, goddammit. Santa’s often-nameless wife gets a sort-of kind-of feminist anthem in “Mrs. Santa Claus” by Angela Lansbury. Then there’s “Mrs. Santa Claus” by R Kelly. Guess what that one’s about. Thanks again to Andy for the requests!

Episode 110: All I Want for Christmas is to Be Sedated

This week we cover some punk rock by request: “I’m Getting Pissed for Christmas” by Peter and the Test Tube Babies and “Oi to the World” by The Vandals. Thanks to cs2-6 for the requests! We had a technical issue while recording and Ian did his best to fix it, but the audio quality is a bit off on this episode. Apologies, angels!

In our third straight week of covering requests, we tackle a recent Christmas original, “No Snowmen in LA” by Ms. Maura and the Misters. And since the Superbowl approaches, we make a tenuous sports connection, pairing it with a song we like MUCH less about a city we like much more: “Merry Merry Merry Frickin’ Christmas (World Champion Red Sox Anthem)” by Frickin’ A.

We joke a lot about not knowing anything regarding music on this here music podcast. This week, we take a request that has us analyzing another medium we’re not particularly qualified to talk about: TV! Hear what we had to say about “California Christmastime” performed by the cast of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and “That’s What Christmas is For” performed by the cast of Community, plus our unpopular opinions about some other beloved/not-beloved shows.
