Divorce Ranch

Beverly interrupts her busy schedule of bullheadedness to gift the Ranchers with some holiday cheer, care of comedian and friend of Good Story Guild Ella Gale. From the entire team at Divorce Ranch, we wish you a safe, warm, happy, and murder-free holiday season. See you in 2025! *** MORE ABOUT CANDY CLAUS, PRIVATE EYE *** CANDY CLAUS, PRIVATE EYE is a half-hour comedy fiction podcast about Santa's bastard daughter solving hardboiled Christmas crimes on the North Pole.

A sendup of toxic positivity and holiday homecomings, this award-winning podcast stars Kyle Kinane as Santa, and MISSION TO ZYXX co-creator Moujan Zolfaghari plays Minty, Candy's irrepressibly cheerful elf sidekick.
