Over several decades, the LDS Church produced a series of books each year from their first 16 presidents. These were leather-bound and had gilded pages. They were given to church employees with a card explaining they were given by the First Presidency. We think this is about as “official” as it gets. Today MRM's Bill McKeever and Eric Johnson look take a three-part look at the book honoring Gordon B. Hinckley.

Author Ed Daly (The Christmas Book) returns to talk about easily one of the most celebrated holiday movies ever, John Hughes' Thanksgiving classic "Planes, Trains and Automobiles." This movie was the career-changer for the late, great John Candy and this episode gets into the hows and whys of that turning point, as well as how the movie was ultimately saved in the editing (as many films often are, but here especially). Would you consider yourself more of a Neal or a Del? What is the most important deleted scene that could've been left in? Which country still rates the movie a PG-13 in spite of the legendary nineteen F-bombs? What is everyone's favorite John Hughes movie? All these questions and more, plus It's the Blu-ray Gift Exchange, Charlie Brown!

Today I talk to Pamela McColl about her two new books on Mrs. Claus! In our discussion we talk about the history and development of the character of Mrs. Claus, and how she is often portrayed. We also speak about lessons we can learn from her, and how celebrating Christmas with Santa and Mrs. Claus helps enrich the imagination of children... and a few of us adults!

Welcome back to A Cozy Christmas Podcast! Summer's heat can make it hard to feel the Christmas spirit, but it's still there—waiting to be found and shared! In this episode, I talk about how creativity can spread joy—especially Christmas joy—and I take a moment to reflect on Currier & Ives and their timeless winter scenes. For our story today, I read the first two Christmas chapters of Louisa May Alcott's Little Women. The March sisters' creativity, generosity, and joy shine through—whether in giving to a family in need, receiving an unexpected gift from a kind neighbor, or staging a delightfully chaotic homebased theatre performance. Together, they remind us that the best gifts we give (and receive) are always the most heartfelt.

Yes, Christmas was 2 weeks ago, but this week Bill and Eric finish their repeat look at Christmas books that were handed out to church employees over a three-decade period. What this series has taught us is that classic works and citations from their leaders should still be considered seriously, even at the end of the 20th/beginning of the 21st centuries. In the last half of the week they consider the teachings of 15th President Gordon B. Hinckley.

Happy New Year! In the first week of 2025, Bill and Eric take a look at a book given away by the First Presidency to Church Employees in 2001. What makes this book amazing is that the editors culled quotes from the three-volume series and took the choicest quotes they felt were important to read. Thus, there is some legitimacy to these quotes…and there are some doozies! To see these quotes, visit https://www.mrm.org/?s=christmas+book+series for more information.

This week, Vanessa and special guest Julia Argy explore the theme of Worthiness in Chapter 16 of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince! They discuss the value of peeling sprouts by hand, Percy's Christmas, and Ron's new necklace! Throughout the episode we consider the question: what are we weighing when we decide the worthiness of something?Thank you to Mo for this week's voicemail! Next week we're reading Chapter 17, A Sluggish Memory, through the theme of Knowledge with Matt Potts.--It's two sickles to join S.P.E.W., and only five dollars to join our Patreon for extra content every week! Please consider helping us fill our Gringotts vault so we can continue to make this show. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
