We're ending the year in a wonderfully bleak Vermont valley, already covered in snow and taking on more. Spend the night listening as the small flakes pile up around you and the winds howl over the peaks.The holidays are gone, we flip the calendar back to the beginning with a new number to reign over it all. January, 2026. Ensconced in winter's tomb until mid-April. But it sure looks pretty. The slight nighttime glow of Vermont's small giants, the Green Mountains, covered in white, can make even the dullest early months feel magical. Just don't forget to silence your phone — while we may be near South Royalton and far enough from everywhere else — the 5G will still bring in the incessant pocket buzzing of your phone (This is Vermont not the Oort cloud. You can get NYE messaging here).Look, I'm pretty sure many of the other New Year's–adjacent uncommon ambience posts are painted with personal feelings about my least favorite holiday. I'm not here to rain on anyone's ball droppings — I've done that enough already. This is the day we celebrate “new beginnings” while our health care costs reset, local governments enact unpopular new rules, and we stand in front of couches or bar stools toasting “my year!”And all night, messages and group chat alerts from all the people in our lives.The cinephile friends continuing their NYE phone-buzzing group chat that you somehow got added to. Tonight they started a movie together at an exact time so the Statue of Liberty smashes the roof of the Manhattan Museum of Art at exactly midnight.And you know damn well why you were added to that group — it was that movie take you absentmindedly assented that got you added to that group chat. Something about Rachel Dawes being swapped with Ellie Burr without changing either movie. It was a crowded party. A buddy was dangling on a trembling limb of being labeled “weird,” and so you swooped in with a reflexive “totally agree.”Now you're in a movie-people chat. Tonight they're watching Ghostbusters II, randomly dealing out their dark-horse New Year's movies, when — guys — you won. We've ceded Die Hard to Christmas. We don't need to do that with every holiday.There will be folks accounting for an earlier wave of pocket buzzing — the folks who don't salute any dropping ball and want that known. Sending out all flavors of “in bed at 8 p.m., ttyl!”Also, the post-midnight flurry of photos: sleeping children. They almost made it! Oh, how wholesome. You knew Anderson Cooper and platform-specific lip-synching wasn't going to keep your kids awake.The counter-culture folks still picking up Animal Crossing New Leaf for their long abandoned town's celebration — And… I'm mocking NYE again — probably for the third year in a row.Maybe spend a quiet evening amongst the snow of Southern Vermont. It'll work great at counteracting whatever fireworks your neighbor saved from the 4th of July and is definitely setting off tonight. Nighttime winter Southern Vermont snow. Wind over the Green Mountains, falling snow, and quiet rural winter sounds. An ambient sound podcast episode for sleep, focus, and relaxation (trying some SEO suggestions from a pal as I typically use this entire text block to rant — I wouldn't need to do this if y'all felt like subscribing to uncommon ambience.

Spencer and Lee dive into episode 2 of season 2 of Amazon Prime's "Fallout." Lee has a rant (or two) about the Brotherhood. A potential mega-villain (heel) is being created, Spencer is unhappy with the Lucy story line (good acting though), and the guys work in a little Diehard talk for the holiday.

The lights are hot, the synths are humming, and the 80s Movie Bracket has reached its glorious endgame. Rob, Dave, and Kurt throw open the studio doors and welcome two heavy hitters of nostalgia, Jim from Children of the 80s and Giff from Pop Culture Yearbook, to help settle an argument that has echoed since VHS rewinds were a workout. Four mighty brackets, Action, Comedy, Sports, and Sci-Fi/Fantasy, have battled through montages, one-liners, and slow-motion triumphs, leaving eight titans standing. This is not a debate, it's a cinematic steel cage match where reputations are on the line and John Williams-level drama hangs in the air. On the final card, Back to the Future squares off against Ghostbusters in a clash of flux capacitors and proton packs, while Die Hard and Predator bring bare-knuckle bravado to the action corner. Comedy sends Coming to America and Three Amigos to the front lines armed with royal swagger and accidental heroics, and sports delivers pure heart with Hoosiers versus The Karate Kid, a battle of gym floors and crane kicks. With Jim and Giff in the mix, every vote carries the weight of mixtapes, sleepovers, and movie posters taped to bedroom walls. One film will rise above them all, crowned the greatest 80s movie of all time, while the rest take a bow to thunderous applause and a perfectly timed guitar riff Pandora: https://pandora.app.link/iq8iShjXOLb   Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/totally-80s-and-90s-recall/id1662282694    Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/11dk5TUoLUk4euD1Te1EYG?si=b37496eb6e784408    Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1960c8f9-158d-43ac-89a6-d868ea1fe077/totally-80s-and-90s-recall    YouTube Podcasts: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH9lGakNgCDZUkkHMUu88uXYMJu_33Rab&si=xo0EEVJRSwS68mWZ   Contact Us: Website: https://totally80s90srecall.podbean.com/  Email: 80s90srecall@gmail.com LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/80s90srecall

Murph and his former co-host, Morgan Wright, have a fun but informed review of the original Die Hard, breaking down the legendary Nakatomi Plaza hostage takeover with help from someone who actually knows how this stuff works—Rick Massa, a retired LAPD SWAT officer. Spoiler alert: crawling through air vents barefoot is not standard operating procedure. Whether you're a true crime fan, a law enforcement buff, or someone who just wants to finally settle the debate—is Die Hard a Christmas movie?—this review delivers laughs, insight, and a whole lot of controlled chaos.

Yes, we're a little late for Christmas but that's because we were busy watching Michael Caine act his ass off in front of a bunch of Muppets. Jake, Holden, and Mike talk about their favorite Christmas movies and TV specials, and unlike the Chanukah episode there isn't time to list them all. And yes Die Hard gets it due because we're not having that argument and if you try we're throwing you off Nakatomi Plaza. Holden talks us through the qualifications of what makes something Christmasy and yes, sometimes it involves Jimmy Stewart trying to off himself and Phoebe Cates' dad burning alive in a chimney.

Is Die Hard a Christmas Shooter Movie? Only this podcast would know!We discuss:- Call of Duty's rare public admission of failure and what the end of back-to-back sub-franchise releases actually signals.- Marathon's delay, $40 price point, and why fiscal calendars still distort launch strategy.- Why Valorant Mobile exploded in China, and why Western mobile shooters keep failing to break through.- EA hiring a VP of Shooters for mobile, and whether Battlefield or Apex can realistically return to phones.- Highguard's confused reveal, the danger of losing narrative control, and why innovation still matters.- Marvel Rivals as a ceiling, not a failure, and what the hero-shooter arms race gets wrong about retention.

We go into the last show of 2025 with Raiders chat, Ken and Bean, a Die Hard tangent, awkward commercial placement, moving during Christmas, Milana Vayntrub, Eddie on donkey, fire teeth, and the infamous stage fall!

Forget a lump of coal. Trump put Democrats' coal on a conveyor belt and fed it directly into their stockings like he's firing up a steel mill. This is industrial punishment, OSHA-approved, with a grin that says, you earned every ounce of this.Honestly, did I miss a sequel to Die Hard? One where Santa swaps the sleigh for tactical boots and starts muttering about consequences? Because Santa is on a rampage. Somewhere between Rambo: First Blood and Silent Night, Santa and Rambo must have signed a mutual aid agreement. Red suit. Green beret energy. And yes, Santa has issued a full-blown fatwa on Democrats and their political minions.Democrats know it too. You can see it in their faces. This is the look of people who know they're skipping Christmas this year. If you were a Democrat, would you even bother putting up a tree? Why waste the ornaments when the whole thing is going to get shaken down for evidence? Hanging stockings feels optimistic, like leaving milk and cookies for the repo man.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to the party, pal

We're closing out the year by looking back at everything we covered on Franchise Addicts — the franchises, the debates, the surprises, and the episodes that stuck with us.In this end-of-year episode, we revisit the movies and series we spent the most time with, pick our favorite episodes from the catalog, revisit a few moments we still think about, and allow ourselves one rating mulligan — because opinions evolve.This isn't a rankings episode.It's a reflection on why these franchises matter, how our perspectives changed, and what it's like to live with these movies over time.Franchises discussed include:Indiana Jones, Alien, The Godfather, Die Hard, Evil Dead, Batman, Terminator, the Before trilogy, 28 Days Later, and more.Thanks to everyone who listened, commented, argued with us, or quietly followed along this year.What franchise should we never stop talking about?

Our season of women Best Director nominees continues with Greta Gerwig's Lady Bird. Let's go on a trip back to post-9/11 high school and all the drama, anxiety, and oddity it contained.Hope you have a lovely holiday and get a chance to watch whatever films fit the bill for you (Die Hard or otherwise). You can shoot us an email at whatisamoviepod@gmail.com

This week on The Weekly Warp Pipe, we're getting into the holiday spirit by ranking our favorite Christmas movies from the 80s and 90s

THE DEVIL WITHIN — CHRISTMAS SPECIAL Episode Two: Merry Christmas, You're Barely Holding It Together Christmas movies aren't comforting because they're gentle. They're comforting because they tell the truth—quietly, sideways, and usually with jokes.

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 72 Gary responds to a dispensationalist pastor who takes issue with something said by John Rich on a recent podcast with Tucker Carlson. The pastor claims that what Rich was saying was not only misleading, but flat-out false about what Dispensationalism and Christian Zionism teach regarding Israel's future. Gary points out that this pastor doesn't understand his own position clearly enough.

The Baller Lifestyle Podcast Episode 606 Part 2 — “White Christmas Is the Worst Christmas Movie Ever” Host: Brian BecknerCo-Host: Ed Daly Episode Description Merry Christmas… we guess? In this holiday episode of The Baller Lifestyle Podcast, Brian and Ed return from the holiday break to absolutely torch one of the most beloved “classic” Christmas movies of all time — White Christmas (1954). Ed once again does the Lord's work by watching a movie so Brian doesn't have to, and what unfolds is a deeply uncomfortable, wildly problematic, and shockingly un-Christmas breakdown of Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, minstrel songs, buttermilk, liverwurst, and a plot that makes absolutely no sense. Is White Christmas actually a Christmas movie?Why does it open and close with the same song and forget Christmas in between?How did this movie ever become a holiday staple?And why does everyone seem so aggressively miserable? If you've ever argued about whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie, this episode gives you all the ammunition you need. ️ What's Covered in This Episode Why White Christmas may be the worst “Christmas movie” ever made Singing White Christmas in the first 5 minutes… then nowhere else for 2 hours Bing Crosby: war captain, confirmed bachelor, and walking red flag Danny Kaye's extremely confusing energy and dance-heavy runtime Minstrel show references — without irony How White Christmas is basically a sanitized remake of Holiday Inn ‍️ A sad WWII general running a failing Vermont inn Escaping the police by train from Florida to Vermont (sure, why not) ️ Singing about snow… when it isn't snowing Midnight snacks of liverwurst sandwiches and buttermilk A TV plot that somehow saves the entire hotel ‍‍ A suspiciously emotional reunion of army buddies Bing Crosby finally wearing a Santa suit in the last five minutes ️ Fun fact: the snow was made of asbestos Why people still call this a Christmas movie Key Takeaway White Christmas isn't a Christmas movie — it's a two-hour fever dream that happens to use the same song twice and confuse generations of viewers into thinking it's festive.

We conclude the 12th Season the day after Christmas for a minisode on Luc Besson's SciFi Fantasy Trilogy: The Fifth Element, Lockout & Valerian.   Guests Oreo Brewer & Johnny Potoky bring up how these pre-STAR WARS comics and fantasy elements helped these film adaptations come to life in a post-mega blockbuster movie world.   Is FIFTH ELEMENT the most successful Bruce Willis film outside of his earlier '90s work (and is Korben Dallas his best role given how it allows him more comedic work while spoofing his DIE HARD ego)?   Are these movies perfect examples of paintings that can be reobserved and you find something new from them each time?   Is LOCKOUT still a damn fun time no matter which version you watch or did the Snake Plissken/Han Solo hero feel too derivative?   And should VALERIAN be given a better re-evaluation in this snobby internet world?   Come drive your flying car into space with us as we podcast across the galaxy!     MUSIC INTRO USED: "Redrum" Immediate Music (from The Fifth Element Trailer)    

Can a pair of dice ruin Christmas?

A quiet Christmas night turned into the kind of live hangout we love: full of warmth, road stories, and the kind of honest talk only a tight community can handle. We kicked off with Lola in her holiday outfit, fan roll call lighting up the chat, and Mac's Waffle House saga that only wrestling lifers truly understand on a day when everything else is closed.From there, we pulled back the curtain on how holiday shows used to work in the territory days—double shots in Greensboro and Atlanta, no time off, just the grind that built entire careers. Then we compared that to today's schedule, where TV and premium live events set the tempo and wrestlers actually get time with family. It's a real marker of how the business evolved and what it owes to the people who carried it when the road was all there was.We also faced a tough headline: the Ric Flair cameo that left a bad taste for fans who paid top dollar for a milestone message. We talked about what fans expect with paid access, the risks of tying big life moments to celebrity shoutouts, and how creators should protect trust. The mailbag kept spirits high and real—Die Hard's Christmas status, Grinch-vs-Santa self-portraits, and a candid memory of a holiday lost in the haze. Music shoutouts ranged from the Isley Brothers and the O'Jays to DJ Khaled, Cardi B, and a dash of Teddy Swims, because comfort tracks matter this time of year.We wrapped with what's ahead: celebrating Abdullah the Butcher's 80th birthday in Atlanta with Ron Simmons and the Rock 'n' Roll Express, plus MLW returning to Center Stage in March. If you want us at your con—Jacksonville and beyond—say the word and tell organizers. We're here for the meet-and-greets, the stories, and the sushi spots we never forget.

Here's a special Christmas episode brought to your feed from KUOW's arts and culture podcast Meet Me Here: The holiday season means trees, cookies, family, spirituality, or presents to many. For Meet Me Here's Dyer Oxley, it means it's time to watch his favorite Christmas movie — "Die Hard." This 1988 action flick starring Bruce Willis and Alan Rickman has become a Christmas tradition for many. But not everyone agrees that "Die Hard" can be a Christmas tradition. Week in Review host Bill Radke is in that camp. He challenges Dyer's "Die Hard" opinion in a special holiday throwdown. Bill and Dyer debate a modern holiday question: Is "Die Hard" a Christmas movie? We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us. Tap here to make a gift and keep Seattle Now in your feed.

Just how are you going to pass the time on Christmas Day after you've got the roast in the oven (at low temp, of course) and you've finished your obligatory annual screening of Die Hard? How about a special Christmas Day edition of the Three Whisky Happy Hour! Lucretia took time out from the kitchen to host this ad-free episode which features a discussion of the law governing religious symbols on public property, and why they are NOT violations of the Estasblishment Clause of the First Amendment (the phrase "separation of church and state" is not even hiding in any of the emanantions an punumbras of the Constitution, so don't even look). Discussion also turned to wondering why liberals are increasingly hostile to religion—especially Christianity—and Steve offers his theory that the decline of patriotism among liberals, which also shows up in opinion survey data, is connected to the decline of religion among liberals, too. (He gave the full analysis of the matter in this Substack post a few months ago. One sentence summary: politics, the substitute diety for the left, isn't going well for them right now, which makes them angry.) And did you know that Christmas itself is now a"far right" plot? That's what Politico thinks. (Yes, we know: "Politico thinks" is an oxymoron.)We manage to get in some good holiday cheer, such as mocking John's total ignorance of "throuples" *the latest thing for the "Modern Love" section of the NY Times) and we manage to get in our obligatory reference to—wait for it!—the Clean Air Act, and Sydney Sweeney. Because it's Christmas!We'll be back sometime over the weekend with a regular episode in which we review the most significqnt events of 2025, and offer predictions for 2026.

Hosted by Dr. Pamela Gay. A gentle fancy for the Christmas Season—an oft-told tale with a wistful twistful of Something that left the Earth with a wing and a prayer.   Earlier today, I had the stark realization that at the core of many Christmas stories is a core of sorrow or longing that must somehow be transformed into joy. Scrouge must learn charity. Ralphie longs for a bb gun and is betrayed by his joy. George is on the brink of suicide when his Guardian Angel intercedes. John McClane just needs to keep his wife alive (yes, Die Hard is a Christmas movie). Over and over, the holiday spirit can only enter on the wings of struggle.    This realization came to me as I looked for an old school (aka public domain) science fiction story to narrate for tomorrow's episode of 365 Days of Astronomy. The first story I came across (which I'll personally share tomorrow), was Arthur C Clarke's, "The Star" and it was too dark for that family-friendly podcast. Instead, I read "Second Landing," by Floyd Wallace. This story originally appeared in Amazing Science Fiction Stories.  Read it here: https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/24958/pg24958-images.html   Written in 1960 by Floyd L. Wallace, this story is weirdly timeless and felt utterly necessary for this moment. Aliens learn of Earth from our broadcasts, and they fear we are on the verge of destroying ourselves with the bomb. To say more would be to reveal the plot.    I invite you to listen here and find hope in a world of too much darkness. Merry Christmas.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

We get into why she thinks that is, what she's looking for, the trouble she's gotten into chasing it, and then we go full Xmas Bonkers: gangbang/DP talk, feral energy, peppermint Santa cum chaos, what she's doing next year, her dream holiday porn parody pick, and the sacred question—is Die Hard a Christmas movie?

On Christmas Day, you're getting more bullshit starring Bruce Willis for the holiday:   I briefly sum up Willis' final franchise that is both DIE HARD inspired and a rather forced homage/tribute on top of that.   Can you tell any of the 3 entries apart or do they all fade together?   Were any of them different in quality or was it all one overlong mess?   Plus, a brief spotlight on the indie director/producer duo (who also co-star in these films)!     FILMS DISCUSSED: Detective Knight: Rogue, Redemption & Independence     SONGS USED: "Delay Rock," "Cool Blast," "Groove Grove" and "Rock Hybrid" by Kevin Macleod.

On this Christmas Eve many families gather around to watch their favorite holiday movies, but in Amy and T.J. home, it’s a dilemma. And up until now, neither one had actually sat down and watched the other’s favorite movie. This week, they took the time to watch both films together, and have a spirited debate about whether either or both should remain a holiday classic for the Christmases to come.

Christian scholar Dr. Tim Larsen joins the show to explain the real origins of the Christmas traditions we hold dear today—from Santa Claus and reindeer to ornaments and the December 25th date itself. He debunks the persistent myth that Christmas is a pagan holiday, explores how centuries of tradition shaped modern celebrations, and helps separate historical fact from popular fiction. And yes—we settle the age-old question: Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?   Dr. Timothy Larsen is a Professor of History at Wheaton College in Illinois and the president of the American Society of Church History.  His scholarly expertise is the Victorian era, the period that has done so much to shape our Christmas celebrations today, and he is an expert on Christmas.  He is the author or editor of over twenty books, including Twelve Classic Christmas Stories: A Feast of Yuletide Tales and The Oxford Handbook of Christmas.

In this festive episode of 'Big Shot Bob' featuring Robert Horry and the crew, the conversation kicks off with some light-hearted banter and nostalgia. Robert reminisces about watching classic Eddie Murphy SNL skits and his transformative career, noting a shift towards family-friendly movies. The hosts then dive into a passionate discussion about the legitimacy of Christmas and 'Die Hard' as Christmas movies, followed by an analysis of the NBA's Christmas Day matchups, expressing excitement over key games while humorously critiquing some teams' performances.    As the episode progresses, attention shifts to a deep dive into Luca Dončić's style of play, discussing accusations of him foul-hunting and citing criticisms from other players like Jalen Brown. They transition smoothly into examining overall NBA viewership, noting its significant increase, and discuss the likeability of emerging teams like the Oklahoma City Thunder and the finesse in the Spurs' up-and-coming squad under stellar coaching.    The show wraps up with holiday picks for upcoming bowl games, notably highlighting Alabama's and Miami's surprising wins, and making predictions for the New Year's games. In a festive twist, the hosts conclude with a hilarious holiday-themed edition of 'Black Crime or White Crime,' underscoring the ridiculousness of human behavior irrespective of race. This heartwarming, engaging, and funny episode rounds off with a special Big Shot of the Week giving kudos to Idaho's Secret Santa for spreading joy and compassion during the holidays.    00:00 Introduction and Holiday Spirit  00:27 Eddie Murphy's Legacy and SNL Memories  02:16 Debating Christmas Movies  03:37 NBA Christmas Day Lineup  05:08 Coaching and Team Dynamics  11:04 LeBron's Christmas Preference  16:29 Surprising NBA Team Performances  34:22 Flopping and Foul Chasing in the NBA  40:05 Unfair Calls in the NBA  41:44 Viewership Surge in the NBA  46:23 College Football Highlights  48:46 College Football Playoff Debate  50:56 Bowl Game Predictions  01:00:03 Big Shot of the Week: Secret Santa of Idaho  01:01:49 Holiday Edition: Black Crime or White Crime  01:12:44 Holiday Wishes and Sign-Off
