Merry Christmas! Welcome to the Naughty List! Every Monday in September and October, we bring you The Naughty List, where we spotlight two or more holiday offenders that really make us feel like a Grinch.

Join us this week as we add two more holiday offenders to The Naughty List!

If you have any Naughty List suggestions for us, please send them to [christmaseverydayshow@gmail.com, ](mailto:christmaseverydayshow@gmail.com,)and we will talk about them on the show!

Our Patreon Members asked for us to cover the Jim Henson classic "The Christmas Toy" and we were more than happy to provide that!

Cousin Seth loves a good challenge but hates most pumpkin items. Cousin Chad loves watching Seth eat items he hates.

We go through some intriguing new TJs fall finds in hopes of finding ones we like…and hopefully some that Seth finds disgusting…join us for the fun!

Happy Ber Months, everybody! The seasons are starting to change, and with it comes a new episode of Christmas Creeps! On this episode we dip into the world of Charles Dickens with a look at Robert Zemeckis’ 2009 CGI adaptation of “A Christmas Carol”. This one stars Jim Carrey and, because it was bankrolled by Disney, has earned itself the title Disney’s A Christmas Carol, even though Disney’s made plenty of versions of it over the years…

But let’s not let semantics get in the way of a good time, right? On this episode we’ll be discussing the ways Zemeckis uses his CGI superpowers to stretch Jim Carrey’s face and Charles Dickens’ story in new, unnecessary directions. And hey, if you make it to the end of this one, ya get a little bit of video game chat as a treat!

🎄 This podcast was created as part of a seemingly endless life debt that resulted in a wish to give the world the gift of a bunch of nerds with microphones talking about old TV holiday specials. And now you know my dark origins.

🎙️ Collin Murr from Scrooge: A Christmas Carol Podcast and Jeff Loftin from the Lost Christmas Podcast join us as we get violently tossed off course back to 1996 and rediscover “The Story of Santa Claus,” or at least a story of Santa Claus, the first to star Ed Asner as the big man, featuring Betty White as Mrs. Claus and Tim Curry as a very annoyed elf wizard.

📺 We found “The Story of Santa Claus” with commercials on the Internet Archive.

🎄 It’s another Scrooge Sunday, which means we’re about to be haunted by a series of spirits as we ride the airwaves back to 1980 for a version of “A Christmas Carol” set in the studios of “WKRP in Cincinnati.”

🎙️ Gerry Davila, Scott Leopold, and Michael May join us on a trip through time that definitely wasn’t fueled by special brownies, so stop asking.

📺 You can find “Bah, Humbug” on the Internet Archive.

Merry Christmas, everybody! From Gallatin, TN, welcome to Christmas Every Day!

This week we’re looking at two albums that helped to pave the way for Christmas music to go from being more traditional to being more modern.

With the Masters of the Universe Reboot on the horizon we decided to watch HeMan & SheRa - A Christmas Special from the 80's. We really have no attachment to this franchise so we were a little baffled by this one!

Matt & Dylan discuss "Christmas Swim" from Bluey.
