Episode 349: In the 8th Christmas episode of the Dark Poutine podcast, we once again dive into the shadowy side of holiday traditions that often go unnoticed amidst the festive cheer. This episode will explore the dark origins of some Christmas customs, such as mummering, a practice steeped in mystery and community engagement, where masked individuals visit homes to entertain and sometimes frighten. We will also recount the chilling tale of Isaac Mercer, who met a tragic end at the hands of mummers in Bay Roberts, Newfoundland, in 1860. Additionally, we'll dig into the age-old custom of telling ghost stories during Christmas, which has deep roots in ancient traditions. This custom entertains and serves as a poignant reminder of mortality amidst the holiday festivities, adding an intriguing layer to our understanding of Christmas celebrations. We'll share some chilly Canadian ghost stories along the way.

Music and the holiday season just seem to go together, and so it's always been. And part of this province's heritage is recorded in song, thanks to the band Simani. It's hard to imagine a Christmas without hearing the Mummer's Song. Bud Davidge shares the history behind Any Mummers Allowed in?

It's not often you see people going door to door dressed as Mummers anymore, especially not kids. But J.J Curling Elementary is doing its best at keeping the tradition alive. Fifth grade teacher Elaine Kearney takes her class to Mountain View retirement home every year where they put on a show dressed as Mummers. CBC's Amy Feehan stopped by to find out more. 

The Irish Institute of Music and Song in Balbriggan's "Pathway to the Well" offer children in North County Dublin experiences of Irish music and tradition, such as The Fingal Mummers, who recently brought their mischievous musical theatrics to the children of Balbriggan Educate Together.

Part One: Jailhouse Jannies In this episode, we're diving into the spirit — and  mischief — of Christmas in Newfoundland. First, I've got an old story from Trinity, where one group of mummers wound up in jail… but that was far from the worst thing to happen to them. I call the story Jannies in the Jailhouse. I've come across this tale a number of times in my travels but I based my retelling on a version shared in the Daily News' ‘Trinity Notes' section on January 3, 1955. Part Two: Tyler Humber of Kitchinparti I'm excited to welcome Tyler Humber of Kitchinparti, the ECMA-nominated family trio known for their high-energy performances, harmonies, and dedication to keeping Newfoundland's musical traditions alive. Made up of Tyler (vocals, guitar), his sister Terri Lynn Hickey (vocals, tin whistle), and brother-in-law Justin Hickey (vocals, bass), Kitchinparti embodies the spirit of a true Newfoundland kitchen party—which is to say they bring people atogether with music, laughter, and stories. Since forming about four years ago, Kitchinparti has been adding their own original songs to Newfoundland's musical catalog while reimagining traditional favorites. They're currently working on their third album with producer Matt Dines, set to release in the summer of 2025. This holiday season, the band is celebrating the tradition of mummering with their new single, Plank'er Down. Written by Charlie Payne and made famous by Uncle Harry's Bar Band, the ‘Plank'er Down' captures the fun energy of mummers as they visit homes late into the night. I'm thrilled to chat with Tyler about Plank'er Down, the band's roots, and classic Newfoundland hors d'ouvers. Part Three: Martha's Dance With The Mummer Finally a brand new story; a ghostly tale from Bonavista Bay about a woman's last dance with a mummer. It's a story of love and loss, and maybe even the fulfillment of a Christmas promise from long ago… the whole town wants to get a glimpse behind the mummer's mask, instead the get a glimpse beyond the veil.

Tim Watkin got involved in folk traditions through music and Mummers' plays. He joined Stratford Morris and took on the Tourney Horse after finding it in a rather tatty state. He revamped the horse (using an old archive photo of it from 1910) and performs in it alongside the Stratford Morris team. The role of the horse is to clear the way for the dancers or interact with the crowd and collect money. The horse hangs from the wearer's shoulders and has a wooden head, basket neck and a skirt covering the wearer's legs. It's supposed to resemble a medieval tournament horse.

Part One: Mummers & Murder Newfoundland has a lot of interesting traditions but few are as celebrated as mummering. Mummering is a Christmas tradition that dates back hundreds of years. It came to Newfoundland from England and Ireland with the first settlers. In it's best known form, it involves costumed people visiting house-to-house during the 12 days of Christmas.  Once invited inside, the host tries to guess the mummer's identity. Refreshments are served and fun is had by all. This sort of mummering is entertainment, but it wasn't always fun for everyone. For some people, especially children, mummers were scary. They looked odd and behaved strangely. Mostly, the fear was unwaranted. In the 1800s mummering was altogether different. Mummers used to celebrate outdoors and could be found roaming the streets. There are many instances of mummers taking advantage of their anonymity to settle scores. In one instance, there was a murder. In the 1800s mummering was altogether different.

Part Two: Twas The Night After Christmas In this segment we take a look at the lighter side of mummering with the Newfoundland Mummer Story Twas The Night After Christmas. It tells the story of a grandmother who is *usually* very good at guessing the identity of mummers until one fateful Boxing Day night when she meets her match. Read the Twas The Night After Christmas Part Three: A Chat With Carolina East Carolina East has made a name for herself across the country, not only as as an impressive singer but as talented songwriter. She's making music inspired by an eclectic tapestry of influences; from soul, to country, to pop. She competed in the Sirius XM Top of the Country competition as one of eight semi-finalists. In July 2021, Carolina released a full-length album Soaked in Whisky. It's a polished collection of songs about love, happiness, and loss. Her songs are honest, vulnerable, and. always relatable. Carolina joined me to talk about making music, her Christmas album Home for the Holidays, and how covering Journey's ‘Don't Stop Believin'' changed her life. We also talked about her upcoming work with producer Russell Broom (well known for his work with Jann Arden).

You can watch Carolina's Home for the Holidays Christmas special here and be sure to listen to her latest, Russell Broom-produced single ‘Airport'. Part Four: Monstrous Things The season, I've been capping off each episode with a segment I call Monstrous Things. It features tales of a Newfoundland sea monster sightings reported in the mainstream media. This episode offers the story of a ‘monster' seen in the Codroy Valley area around Christmas, 1951. The sighting was described in the January 5th, 1952 edition of the Evening Telegram under the headline “Report Monster Destroying Nets.” What do you think it was?

Actor PETER FLIHAN is our guest on this episode! We talk with him about his acting career and of course his latest appearances on two New York TV shows: East NY and Blue Bloods!New York City born and bred, Peter Flihan got his first taste of acting as the “M” in “Merry Christmas” in the kindergarten play. But it was behind, and later on, the stage with Fordham University's “Mimes & Mummers” in the Bronx where he got really hooked.  It would only take 13 years and 2 prior careers as a foreign exchange broker and then a sales manager for a teddy bear company to finally allow him to become a working commercial actor.With typical perfect timing, he started his pursuit right before the SAG and AFTRA strike in the Spring of 2000.  But with the incredible support of his wife and children, a difficult start became a rewarding journey that continues over 20 years later.  His scope of work has grown over that time to include healthy aspects of voiceover, film, and television roles.As a dedicated community firefighter since 2003, Peter has attained the rank of Captain in a Ladder Company, and is the current President of that Company.  An active freemason, Peter seeks a sense of shared purpose in every family he enjoys being a part, especially the creative one of acting.Here is the link to see Peter's scenes on East New York!  Click to watch thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5g1ImDgvk8

RADIO WARS! Kyle and Kevin lead the show with the lopsided fall ratings between WIP and 97.5. What is the future of Beasley? Can WIP keep the momentum after Angelo retires? How much did the Phillies and Eagles play into it? We're then joined by Dr. Vince Basile, the Mummer who saved the Eagles fan in the 200 level of the Linc. He details the entire situation and we see if we can get him some playoff tix for the Birds run. We finish talking about a good Sixers win, their dominance at home, Carson Wentz's might retire, and Kyle being nominated for the Inquirer's Super Fan contest.

They take some calls, continue to discuss the various injuries, the status of Jalen Hurts, the nightmare that travelers who flew with Southwest had over the weekend, and their level of concern with the Eagles now (13:10). Then they all step aside, so Jen Scordo can present What's Brewing With Jen (1:23:21). They take more calls, discuss the mess that will be in the city with there being an Eagles gam and the Mummers parade on the same day, and discuss more about the Eagles injuries (1:33:35).

Full Hour | In today's second hour, Dom brings up the topic of immigration for the start of the second hour of the Dom Giordano Program, asking people why they believe Democrats want open borders so badly. Throughout the hour, Dom also asks listeners to answer his side question asking for the greatest movie scenes of all time. Then, Dan Cirucci, a regular on the Dom Giordano Program, dials in to offer his opinion on the immigration question, offering what he believes Republicans need to do to further their chances in future elections through the lens of an advertising executive. Then, Dom welcomes media critic Neal Zoren back onto the Dom Giordano Program to hear what's worth watching over the holiday break. First, Neal offers his opinion on the Price Harry and Meghan Markle Netflix documentary, explaining why the documentary, which he calls boring, has at least gave him some sympathy for Markle. Then, Zoren and Giordano discuss the move of the Mummers to MeTV, with Zoren agreeing that this is a slight toward the Mummers. Also, Zoren suggests a couple series to binge over the holidays, explaining why he plans on re-watching some great series himself.  (Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty Images)
