Derailed Trains of Thought

Episode 51 – Wanted: Three Ghosts for One Night Job


Listen Later

“There goes Mr. Humbug. / There goes Mr. Grim. / If they gave a prize for bein’ mean, / The winner would be him.” Everyone knows it’s not Christmas without Ebenezer Scrooge, so we’re examining A Christmas Carol this December as we discuss the presentation of redemption in fiction.

Then, because nothing says “Christmas is coming!” like a run of big releases in the theater, (not Tiny) Tim and (not Saint) Nick discuss their favorite recent movies, including Interstellar, Mockingjay Part 1, Big Hero 6, and a lesser known Muppet Christmas special.

Have a Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year, and in the oft-repeated but always wonderful words of Tiny Tim, “God bless you, every one!”
