A Safe Place For Boys

A Christmas Carol, or Reclamation Day


Listen Later

Join Kelcee and Spencer for their most ambitious project yet: discussing Charles Dicken’s classic 1843 novella A Christmas Carol (along with its many, many adaptations.) Discussion topics include the invention of the holiday special, hot nephews and wife guys, and what it really takes to change an old man’s mind.

Content warnings for discussions of poverty, death via childbirth, and child death, as well as mentions of child abuse.
