We’ve put on a holiday special every year for the last decade. But this year, for the first time, we did it in front of a (pretty large!) audience. On the night of December 18, Colin got 10 performers together onstage, and they rocked their way through an 18-song setlist of holiday and holiday-adjacent classics. There were nine different vocalists, three different pianists. Some of these folks had never met in person before soundcheck, but somehow it really worked! This hour, live from the Foisie Family Ampitheater at Watkinson School in Hartford, it’s part two of our annual holiday spectacular!

For episode 220, I'm joined once again by my co-host Myles Hughes, with producer Steve Prusakowski behind the scenes as usual. It's our holiday spectacular, recorded just a few days before Christmas and dropping today on the day after. We have some holiday themed questions, including one given to me that we kick off the podcast with, tying even into awards season. Then, Myles has finally caught up with Anora (my rave review is here) and A Real Pain (my review is here). We agree about one, though not the other. Guess which? It's a fun episode, bringing us ever closer to our end of the year festivities, which are up next... As always my friends and faithful listeners/readers, I do hope you all enjoy the latest episode of the Awards Radar Podcast, our 220th one to date (here's to many more).

We’ve put on a holiday special every year for the last decade. But this year, for the first time, we did it in front of a (pretty large!) audience. On the night of December 18, Colin got 10 performers together onstage, and they rocked their way through an 18-song setlist of holiday and holiday-adjacent classics. There were nine different vocalists, three different pianists. Some of these folks had never met in person before soundcheck, but somehow it really worked! This hour, live from the Foisie Family Ampitheater at Watkinson School in Hartford, it’s part one of our annual holiday spectacular! GUESTS: Michelle Begley: Vocals and guitar, In Trine Kate Callahan: Vocals, In Trine Jim Chapdelaine: Guitar and vocals, The Shinolas Atla DeChamplain: Vocals, Atla & Matt Matt DeChamplain: Piano, Atla & Matt Lorne Entress: Drums and vocals, The Shinolas Latanya Farrell: Vocals Atticus Kelly: Piano and vocals, In Trine Steve Metcalf: Piano Cynthia Wolcott: Vocals, In Trine The Colin McEnroe Show is available as a podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, TuneIn, Listen Notes, or wherever you get your podcasts.

“Why am I such a misfit? I am not just a nitwit. You can't fire me, I quit! Seems I don't fit in.” It's a Rankin/Bass “Animagic” Christmas Spectacular here at Movies That Made Us Gay, and we watched “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,” “The Year Without a Santa Claus,” “The Life & Adventures of Santa Claus,” and “Nestor, the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey” with our friend Harper Thomson and we still want to visit the island of misfit toys. These charming stop-motion animation TV specials from the 1960s, 70s, and 80s have been airing for as long as any of us can remember, and it's just not the holidays until we watch at least one of them. What little queer child didn't feel seen as Rudolph was banished from gym class and made to hide his light?  Little Hermey the elf just not feeling his 9-to-5 job making toys really speaks to the Gen Z in all of us, and are you even queer if you don't shed a tear when that raggedy doll sings her song on the island of misfit toys? All that and a ginger daddy/bear who loves dogs (and peppermint), and it almost seems as though this was made for and by the gays. There was just something in the sauce Arthur Rankin Jr. and Jules Bass were churning because each of these specials just tugs at your heartstrings and makes the little queer kid inside us weep, laugh, and light up. Oh, and the Heat & Snow Miser's songs are high camp, burlesque magic.  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Bluesky: @MTMUGPod.bsky.social Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna

When checking a bike, pay attention to all the vulnerable parts that jut out and don't shirk the corner padding Wild bison are worth seeing in person, but don't expect them to get out of your way TR NP is an excellent place to bike, but be aware that bison can and do come into the roadway and might scuttle your riding plans The northern tier route is a good place if you want solitude Bike adventures can mean a lot of things Our national parks are treasures worth protecting, but so are our state parks and other public lands
