Come in and know me better, Men(ken)! It's Day 15 of the 25 Days of A Christmas Carol and today on the program it's my sweet baby brother Colin to discuss a truly lackluster musical production produced by NBC starring Kelsey Grammer as Scrooge! It's not the best but it is one of the worst! I'm so tired. I can't keep writing these things everyday. I'm losing it. The episode is funny blah blah blah rate review and subscribe blah blah zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Come in and know me better, clam! It's Day 14 of the 25 Days of A Christmas Carol and today, the great Lamont Price is stopping by for what was supposed to be a deep dive into a seven minute Gumby short but took a slight detour through Dallas, Texas. It's a great episode and really very funny. It's for sure the Christmas Carol adaptation that avoids the source material the most but at this point, I was just so happy to not have to discuss another ghost. It's Gumby. He's weird. It's Lamont. He's great.

Come in and know me, can! It's Day 13 of the 25 Days of a Christmas Carol! Officially past the halfway and I can think of a 1,000 better ways to celebrate such an inconsequential milestone but unfortunately we're stuck with having to endure a truly deranged special from 1978 where inexplicably famous impressionist Rich Little subjects the North American public to endless barrage of completely outdated impressions! They don't make'em like this anymore and thank God for that. To discuss, it's Mark Gallagher from the Mark Gallagher Thing and also friendship! Mark is one of my favorite people to talk to and I owe him a true life debt for agreeing to go through this thing!

Come in and know me better, Batman! It's Day 12 of the 25 Days of A Christmas Carol and to mark the halfway mark of this endless project, I've fit in what I, me, Sean Sullivan, consider to be the very best traditional adaptation, A Christmas Carol from 1984 starring George C Scott. I can't really keep singing the praises of this same story but I love it and I love it mainly cause this movie that has neither a Mickey Mouse or a Kermit Frog is so engaging. It's a real favorite and to talk about it is another dang favorite, actor and comedian Nate Johnson! Maybe you've seen him in commercials for regional banks or the Connecticut lottery or maybe he's been your good, good friend for nearly 20 years. WHO KNOWS! But he's a delight and for all you listeners who think Tiny Tim is sitting to high on his crutch, your time has come!

A Christmas Carol is available to stream on Amazon or iTunes or other places probably. It might be on Starz. Ask your parents if it's part of their cable package!

Come in and know me better, bro! It's Day 11 of the 25 Days of a Christmas Carol and today we're looking at a two-part television Christmas classic, the two episodes of Saved by the Bell where Zack's mom does a Christmas Carol in the mall with the gang. It's a busy Christmas for the Bayside gang as they all balance seasonal jobs with charity work and their love of food court theatrical productions. To discuss it all, I've got the host of Mindful Metal Jacket and Tuesdays with Stories, Joe List! Joe's a great comedian with a brand-new hour stand up special called "I Hate Myself" available for free on Comedy Central's Youtube page. It's a fun chat!

Come in and know me, slenderman! It's Day 9 of the 25 Days of A Christmas Carol and today, we're looking the Walt Disney produced, Robert Zemeckis directed A Christmas Carol starring Jim Carrey! Wait a sec, the director of Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Back to the Future, teamed up with the star of Dumb and Dumber and the Mask for a fresh, energetic take on the Dickens' classic? Well color me excited. Just kidding! It's the finale of Zemeckis's motion capture trilogy where he glues little dots to real human beings faces and insists that they do "acting" in front of a green screen. Then after he turns all the "acting" into computer generated NPC characters from a Sega Dreamcast game. The entire thing looks like it was rendered on a Game Gear and is truly a nightmare. Thankfully, good buddy Casey Malone acquiesced to this mind-melting torture. It's the 25 Days of A Christmas Carol! I'm so tired

Disney's A Christmas Carol is available to stream on Disney+ (use offer code "25Carols" to pay full price for a subscription package!)

Play Marvel Strike Force on your phone! I think that's the game Casey makes!

Come in and know me betta, kehd! It's a New England Christmas miracle as Bill McMorrow from the Two Boys in a Balcony podcast was able to skate on over to the his computer and through a series of bloops, bleeps, and whistles, magically record a fun Day 9 episode of the other host of Two Boys in a Balcony's mistress podcast, 25 Days of a Christmas Carol! Hurrah huzzah and sit on it, Potsie aaaaaaaaaay. It's Depression-era Concord, New  Hampshire and America's favorite unstuck in time greaser, the Fonz, dons 75 pounds of facial prosthetics to become the most solid rubber faced miser this side of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre! It's a very fun time about a mostly pretty good adaptation!

There's a new episode today too of Two Boys in a Balcony where we're in the middle of our Kurt Russell appreciation month! We watched Big Trouble in Little China! Aaaaaaaaaaaaay!

Come in and know me better, mon! It's Day 8 of the 25 Days of a Christmas Carol and today we're breaking the rules a little bit! Technically The Man Who Invented Christmas does have a Scrooge but all the rest of the story is just the mental breakdown of this biopic's principle subject Charles Dickens, admirably played by Dan Stevens. This is a movie that no one has seen and I think it's a pretty pleasant watch. On the pod today is Boston comedian, Erin Spencer. She's been a finalist in the Boston Comedy Festival and more importantly for our purposes is a Christmas Carol enthusiast.

Thanks. 

Come in and know me better, lamb! It's Day 7 of the 25 Days of a Christmas Carol and in honor of my wife's birthday, it's the laziest birthday present of all time - one 30 minute conversation about a cartoon we watched while she was at the store! Today on the program, it's me, Sean Sullivan, and my children, Harry and Lucy, talking about the 1983 Christmas classic, Mickey's Christmas Carol. If you've ever wondered who the kids from the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe would play in a Christmas Carol, wonder no more! It's a good one. 

Mickey's Christmas Carol is available on Disney+ (use offer code "25Carols" at the Disney store for a chance to be escorted out of the mall)

Come in and know me better, plan! It's Day 6 of the 25 Days of a Christmas Carol and boy howdy do we have a piece of art for you today. In 1964, the United Nations produced a series of television movies to try and convey to the public at large what their mission was. To do this, they reached out to a number of great screenwriters and directors and Rod Serling and Joseph Mankiewicz came together for a very heavy and beautiful updated take on the Christmas Carol story. Joining me to pick through this beautiful piece of propaganda is Boston comedy legend and all-around great guy, Tony V. Tony has a new hour special available on Amazon called "Two Boston Guys" that he released with Jimmy Dunn that you absolutely need to check out. He's one of the funniest and most thoughtful people I know and I was so happy he could carve out a little time right before Thanksgiving to talk about this hidden gem of a movie.
