What's up, dudes? It's one of the most depressing Christmas movies ever, and also a ripoff of “Pollyanna.” Yes, it's “Prancer!” I've got Santa Ambassador Matt Spaulding from North Pole Radio, and Jeremy Phelps the Alamo City Santa here to discuss it. In this 1989 film, 8yro Jessica Riggs believes in Santa Claus. Her father and older brother seem to believe she's too old to do so, and even her best friend Carol has long since given up believing. When Jessica discovers a wounded reindeer in the woods near her home of Three Oaks, Michigan, she's convinced it's Prancer, Santa's missing reindeer. Of course, she becomes determined to take Prancer to a local ridge so Santa can come and retrieve him. Eventually, she tells a mall Santa she has the reindeer, and her belief becomes a source of inspiration for the town. Unfortunately, her dad, facing hard times, sells the animal. As she tries to free it, Jessica falls and injures her head. Her recovery and naïveté move her father, and he helps her return the reindeer to Santa. Loud out of tune singing? Yup. Cantankerous reclusive widow? Got it. Ambiguous magical ending? Only with golden ‘80s special effects! So grab your copy of Yes, Virginia, There Is a Santa Claus, free Prancer, and lead him back to Santa with this episode!

This miniseries is all about rhythm - rhythm games, that is. We recognize that three middle-aged white guys may not be the best option to talk about this episode's game so we asked local (and international) legends Chris Austin and Leon Brunson to give us an insight into the strategy, gameplay, and tournament scene of Konami's Dance Dance Revolution. What kind of hardware do Leon and Chris (literally) bring to the table? How many times have we moved Adam's DDR? What ever happened to Toshiba? Did we identify the perfect footwear for home DDR play? Questions this episode include what arcade game perfectly captures the spirit of Florida and what was our first arcade and pinball fix.

What's up, dudes? In 1989, Milton Bradley released a fun Christmas themed board game. I've got Little #3 with me to talk all about it! Yes, it's Santa's Special Delivery, and we played a couple of games.The goal of the game is to be the first player to distribute their inventory of gifts and return to their home space. Each player chooses four gift tokens and a sleigh pawn, which is placed on the designated home space of the corresponding color. At the beginning of their turn, a player spins the spinner which is illustrated with six colors and a cheerful portrait of Santa. Subsequently, the player moves their pawn along the path to the color indicated by the spinner.There are four types of stops along the board. Landing on a blank space ends the player's turn. If a player lands on a gift box space, he/she drops off a gift at the nearest house. A star space means that the player could give a gift token to an opponent who still had gift boxes of their own to deliver. Finally, an arrow space offers a shortcut that moves players to a gift box space where they can drop off a present to the nearest house.Once a player had delivered all their gifts, they move to the star space closest to home. From the star space, opponents race to be the first player to spin their home color to win the game.Spinner? Yep. Santa's sleigh? Got it. Hours of fun? Definitely! So grab some Tato Skins, open an Ecto Cooler, and play a round of Santa's Special Delivery to this episode!Give us a buzz!

Yes, it's Christmas Eve on MTV's Headbangers Ball, and Ozzy Osbourne and Zakk Wylde are hosting the festivities.We're introduced to a slew of ‘80s metal bands, but kicking off the festivities is Ozzy himself with “Crazy Babies!” Poison, Judas Priest, Winger, Bon Jovi, Whitesnake, and Guns N' Roses follow. Ozzy and Zakk have a great time introducing the videos. In fact, they even dress up in Santa hats. Ozzy even wears an odd mask and a pirate hook. Next up are videos from KISS, Hurricane, Alice Cooper, RATT, Aerosmith, and Cinderella. Ozzy suddenly appears in a picturesque Christmas fireside, but now inexplicably has on caveman feet and a club. Subsequently, videos from Lita Ford, Anthrax, Bad News (with the only Christmas song), Def Leppard, and Iron Maiden air. Finally, Hear N' Aid sang “Stars” and Headbangers Christmas concluded! Go get ‘em, boys!AC/DC singing “That's The Way I Wanna Rock 'N' Roll?” Yep. Yngwie Malmsteen performing “You Don't Remember, I'll Never Forget?” Uh huh. Sam Kinison? Sam Kinison?!?!

In this episode of Eye on AI, host Craig Smith sits down with Alex Salazar, co-founder and CEO of Arcade.dev, to explore what it really takes to build secure, scalable AI agents that can take real-world actions. While everyone's talking about the future of autonomous agents, most never make it past the demo stage. Why? Because agents today lack secure infrastructure to connect with real tools like Gmail, Slack, Notion, GitHub—and do so on behalf of users without breaking authentication protocols. Alex shares how Arcade solves the missing layer in AI agent development: secure tool execution, user-specific authorization, OAuth flows, and production-ready consistency. Whether you're building with GPT‑4, Claude, or open-source models, Arcade handles the hard part—making agent actions actually work.

On this throwback-flavored episode of the Nonsense Podcast, we kick things off with a wild Kelly Fact: orcas are once again wearing salmon as hats. Yes, fashion is alive and well in the ocean, and FNBob thinks they're just expressing themselves—meanwhile, Henvincible is still trying to figure out how they keep the fish on their heads. After that splash of marine madness, the crew talks about needing time off from the 9 to 5 grind and how one woman wrote her own obituary just to control the narrative. Then we dive deep into nostalgia, starting with the return of Tony Hawk Pro Skater, leading to FNBob showing off his skate decks while Henvincible debates whether it's too late to learn how to ride anything. We get a full report from FNBob's trip to the legendary arcade Galloping Ghost, where he met The Angry Video Game Nerd—a YouTube hero! From there, it's a chaotic trip down memory lane with old-school memes, creators like DashieXP and Game Grumps, and classic shows like Jackass and Wildboyz. We end things with Kelly sharing her nostalgic food favorites (fry bread and shepherd's pie), and FNBob revealing his hilarious reason for starting locs—to avoid barbershops. ✨ Episode Highlights:

Taken from part 2, we meet Lupin and gang as they try to steal an important bottle of wine and rob Tiffany's jewelry store on a dare.In “The Sleight Before Christmas,” the last remaining bottle of Bordeaux from Napoleon for his wife will be given to the President on Christmas Eve. The team hides in wine barrels, and follows Zenigata to its location. Unfortunately, it was a trap, bud with Goemon's sword, they escape. Of course, they sneak onto the plane, gas everyone, and get away with the wine. Oh, and there's a bonjour/Bon Jovi joke.In “Christmas at Tiffany's,” the team is bribed by the owner of the jewelry store to attempt to rob it. The ratings of her show will skyrocket! Lupin refuses because he wants to relax, but Fujiko's spending forces his hand. Naturally, hilarity ensues. Is there an old boat captain who invented a lightsaber? Yes. They get away, and leave the jewels on the Statue of Liberty, of course!Blank check they can fill in? Check (no pun intended). A sword that cuts through buildings? Got it. A laser lasso gun? Now we're getting into James Bond territory!

What's up, dudes? Come live your fantasy in Beverly Hills.Come on and make your dreams come true. William Bruce West from Remember That Show? and West Week Ever and Chad Young from Horror Movie BBQ are with me to do that, and talk about the 1987 cartoon Beverly Hills Teens Christmas episode "Miracle at the Teen Club!"In this two-part episode from Dec. 17-18, 1987, Buck attempts to throw a big Christmas party. Unfortunately, Larke and Troy decide to go caroling and to give toys to needy children, making the party a bust. Only a few of the teens show up, and they all get snowed in at the Teen Club due a cheap snow machine. In order to pass the time, they tell Jillian and Chester their version of Dickens's "A Christmas Carol.” Of course, they cast themselves as the characters, with Buck as Scrooge. Radley, Switchboard, and Nikki are the Ghosts, and they show Buck the errors of being über-wealthy. In true Scrooge fashion, he donates a huge sum of money to the orphanage.Surfing ghosts? Check. Travel via landline? Got it. Bah, hummingbird? Bah, hummingbird?!?! So grab your checkbook, hop in your oversized limo, and carol along to this "Miracle at the Teen Club" episode of a Beverly Hills Teens Christmas!
