Shorties 46: Mr. Christmas


Listen Later

Ok, so this next Angela short doc selection isn’t as sad as last week, but let’s be honest…there is a real undercurrent of loneliness that drives this whole scenario. His name? “Mr. Christmas”. He goes all out on the Christmas lights. Spends three months setting them up, three months taking them down and his house will definitely catch on fire one day. His cat Trixie has mad tricks though, and let’s face it…Mr. Christmas is a player in these streets. Vintage pussy hound. His neighbor? A kite flying cuck, probably. “Mr. Christmas” by Nick Palmer and produced by National Geographic for some reason. I gotta get one of those postcards.
