Happy Thursday, Christmas fanatics! Welcome to the fourth official installment of Another Christmas Story!

This week, our very own Thom Crowe will read to all of you Chapter Three of our tale, entitled "Do They Know It's Christmas?" Within this chapter, you'll meet the struggling Rankin family, including young, single mom Megan and her three children, Jake, Aaron, and Amy! Please be advised if you're listening with young kids, however, that not only are there a few instances of semi-questionable language in this chapter, but some hard truths about a certain beloved and iconic Christmas figure as well.

We hope you like it! If you do, make sure to share this episode and our website, upon which the text of this installment is posted, to get it in front of as many eyes as possible!

Make sure to check your podcast feeds for your regular weekly episode on Monday, in which the elves will be discussing the Christmas episodes of the television show Arrested Development, and next Thursday for the fourth official chapter of this story - "Chapter Four: Last Christmas", which listener Rebecca Boll will be reading to y'all and in which you'll catch up with the character of Mary Holiday in the present day! Enjoy, y'all!
