A Christmas (Surprise) Carol: Muppets, Mathew McConaughey, Modern Psychology & The Man Who (Maybe) Invented Christmas


Listen Later

This year we accidentally made a very good choice of what to cover for our holiday episode. It began with wanting to discuss A Muppets Christmas Carol which then evolved into wanting to discuss the other adaptations and retellings of the Christmas classic which then led to a Dickensian feat. It’s going to include Madelaine Turner’s EXCELLENT research on Charles Dicken’s life and Rebecca’s subpar knowledge on the topic after watching The Man Who Invented Christmas (an eventual BBC classic). We also watched and will be discussing Ghosts of Girlfriends Past as *gasp* maybe the best adaptation of them all???t) We also watched A Barbie Christmas Carol, It’s A Wonderful Life, A Holly Dolly Christmas, Mickey’s Christmas Carol, Scrooged, to prep for the episode. That’s a lot. We are experts. God bless us, everyone!
