It's been way too long friends, but we're back. And we all made sure to mark ourselves safe from the Winter Blitzkrieg that attacked most of the US.

Although we may have to check on Tatum every time the tempature drops below freezing from now on. And if you're asking yourself, is there really any more Christmas content to talk about - the answer is always yes. We're gonna talk about a fairly obscure end of Christmas holiday and one of your soon-to-be favorite holidays as well.

But before we get into that we wanted to take a few minutes to recognize the life and contribution of the most relatable on-screen Christmas mom we all grew up with, the irreplaceable Catherine O'Hara.

This is a good one! We've got all the topics that we're going to cover this year. From Austrailan crows to Christmas in space and we're mapping it all out and inviting everyone in on the fun.

If there's a topic you want covered that we didn't mention just email us at [email protected] and we'll add it to the list.

Help us spread the Christmas cheer all year by sharing these episodes with other friends and anyone that needs to be reminded that there's always a reason to celebrate the best holiday any time of year.

Thanks everyone!

Are you still celebrating Christmas? Good! Because we've got several reasons why the season hasn't ended yet. And we're not stopping either. In this episode we take a trip back in time to Rome, try to remember the song Twelve Days of Christmas, and Tatum can't quite get over why there are so many birds in that song. Don't worry, we might have an answer. So grab a cup of coffee, hot chocolate, or wassail and let's have some fun.

Happy New Year!

32 movies competing for this year's Yuletide Records top spot.

From the classics to current movies we've got it all covered. Live action, claymation, and maybe even a muppet. You might disagree with the final outcome but we can all agree that this is probably how the Academy Awards are chosen too. And maybe this will even inspire you to create your own bracket and pick out a few movies to watch before the season's end. If you do, email us at [email protected] and let us know who made the final four on your list.

Enjoy!

No holiday is truly complete until you've had a few classic dishes and drinks to help with the merriment. Unless of course you're not a fan of a mummified fruit loaf. But that won't stop us from bringing you some of the best and worst things you can eat this Christmas and all year long. Make sure to stock up on suet, eggs, nutmeg and ambergris if you're planning on entertaining guests this holiday. And nothing washes all that boiled goodness down better than a drink once served to warriors before battle.

If you've got a holiday dish or drink you'd like to share or even a family recipe that's been passed down for centuries email us at [email protected] so we can try it out!

Cheers! -YR

Belsnickel, Thomas Edison, the Moravians, Chris Evans, the old man from Home Alone, and a lot of Christmas trees. Somehow they're all related, maybe. And whether you like your Christmas lights as LEDs or 400 degrees we've got you covered.

Welcome back to what's hopefully becoming your favorite holiday-themed podcast. In this episode Tatum renames Christmas tree farms, Josh tries to pronounces Weihnachtsbaum, and Grayson doesn't really like the cut of your jib.

We really enjoyed working on this one (despite what Tatum might tell you) and we hope you enjoy it to. And as always, email us at [email protected] to let us know how we're doing.

Thank you so much for listening and we can wait to bring you more Christmas fun and stories.

Do you pronounce it jib-let or gib-let?

Either way, that's the least of our worries as we take on this Thanksgiving episode. As it turns out, not everyone is as familiar with parades as we thought. And has anyone ever watched the entire Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade from start to finish?

Whether you're a fan of the giant balloons, the turducken, or bad lip-syncing we can all agree that the real hero of Thanksgiving is a woman from the early 1800s who wanted you to have the best thanksgiving ever.

So go grab a second helping of pie and get settled in for this episode of Yuletide Records. And as always, you can email us at [email protected].

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Wham, Bing, and asbestos!

On the second episode of Yuletide Records we're moving full steam ahead into what made White Christmas more than just your grandparents' favorite movie. From the first time the song was performed to over 50 million units sold we now know why it became the most popular recording of all time. Could another song ever beat out White Christmas for the top spot? Does Last Christmas by Wham have a chance? Did Tatum actually watch the movie?

Before you hit play to find out, we'd love for you to subscribe to this podcast so we can have more Yuletide fun all year long.

We'd love to hear from you. Email us at [email protected]

Thanks for listening!

On this first and inaugral episode of Yuletide Records you get to hear from us: Josh, Grayson, and Tatum as your hosts and guides to all things Christmas. Who said you can only play Christmas music starting mid-December? Or that the tree has to go up the day after Thanksgiving? And when is the best time to shop for presents?

We'll get into all of that as we lay out our plan to host a year-round conversation about everything that has its roots in Christmas. From modern times to Victorian-era traditions we're going share our thoughts, stories, and research so that you too can be an expert on your favorite holiday.

So break out the eggnog regardless of what month it is becuase we're kicking things of with a discussion about how soon is too soon to start Christmas.

We'd love to hear your thoughts and you can email them to us at [email protected]
