Tis the Podcast

This week, the elves take a little hop across the pond for Love Actually. They delve into all 8 storylines, discussing the characters, their stories, and the movie in general. Get ready for an all-around love fest just in time for Valentine's Day!

It’s hard to believe, but Tis the Podcast is now over six months old! Happy half-birthday to us.

To celebrate this milestone, the elves dive into the 2000 film The Family Man starring Nicholas Cage and Tea Leoni. Anthony has been taunting Thom, who really likes this movie, for weeks now. How will this play out on the episode? Do we get to see an angry Anthony or will everyone hug it out and come to a consensus?

This week, the elves discuss “the final chapter in the greatest Santa story ever told” – The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause. Julia, Thom, and Anthony are unified in their overall opinions regarding this Disney threequel, as they answer two important questions:

Also discussed in this episode are the hosts’ favorite film and television versions of the North Pole!

This week, the elves discuss “the final chapter in the greatest Santa story ever told” – The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause. Julia, Thom, and Anthony are unified in their overall opinions regarding this Disney threequel, as they answer two important questions:

1. Is this movie as good as its predecessors, or is it a film full of missed opportunities? And if it is the latter…
2. Is it as bad as some of the worst that we’ve covered, like One Magic Christmas and Santa’s Slay?  

Also discussed in this episode are the hosts’ favorite film and television versions of the North Pole!

This week, the elves are excited to discuss their first direct sequel to a film they’ve already covered: Disney’s 2002 film, The Santa Clause 2: The Mrs. Clause. A lot has changed in-story, and behind-the-scenes out-of-story, in the eight years since Tim Allen’s Scott Calvin first donned the red suit and became Santa Claus in 1994, and Julia, Thom, and Anthony delve into all of it in great detail. Does the film serve as a worthy follow-up to the Christmas classic that still rests comfortably at number 2 on their Christmas canon list, or is it a needless sequel? One things for certain, it’s a movie that elicited a lot of opinions from our listeners when they found out we were covering it, and the hosts express their excitement that their social media interactions are picking up again! Tune in to this episode to find out what everyone thinks of Scott Calvin’s continuing journey as Santa Claus as he sets out to find his Mrs. Claus!

“Back to Work” month continues this week with a discussion about all seven Christmas episodes of the American version of “The Office”! The elves are super excited to discuss the beloved comedy, which they all love, and laugh their way through the entire episode, which has an abundance of “That’s What She Said” jokes, a lot of quotes, and a few interesting tidbits about NBC’s iconic comedy outside of their holiday shows.

The elves talked for hours while recording this show, and though they managed to cut it down to a manageable 1:18:02 in length, the full, unedited episode – which runs 2:09:38 (a full 51 minutes longer!) – is even better. It includes a lot more discussion about “The Office” as a whole, more behind the scenes information, many more quotes, and, typical Tis the Podcast banter amongst our cohosts, including lots of trolling one another. Because the elves love the unedited version so much – in addition to their fans, who’ve shown a lot of excited interest in this episode – we’ve put the full, two plus hour show up on Patreon for you to download for just $1.00 if you’re interested. Trust us when we say, it’s worth it! (patreon.com/tisthepodcast)

How will the sophomoric humor, sexual innuendos, and nudity in a Christmas movie work for the elves? Will Office Christmas Party make it to the top of the nice list or fizzle out? As if this prospect isn't fun enough, the elves announce what is going to be their favorite episode to record for next week.

Happy New Year! The elves kick off 2018 with Rudolph's Shiny New Year, the 1976 Rankin Bass continuation of Rudolph. There wasn't much love for the movie throughout this episode, but the elves took time to reflect on 2017, look at the list as it stands right now, and discuss dealing with post-Christmas blues. We loved 2017 and are excited to journey towards Christmas 2018 with you, starting right now!
