Trump spends Christmas ranting about his enemies and being weird with children during Santa calls. The GOP is getting mocked after claiming Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer is a Republican. Mike Johnson is slammed by his own party over his leadership. Trump's tariffs haven't done anything but make the economy worse. Trump has announced that strikes were launched in Nigeria. ICE agents stormed a women's bathroom.  Host: John Iadarola (@johniadarola) Co-Host: Brett Erlich (@bretterlich) ***** SUBSCRIBE on YOUTUBE TIKTOK  ☞        https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport INSTAGRAM  ☞   https://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport TWITTER  ☞         https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport FACEBOOK  ☞     https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT

This week, I start by sharing why First Descents, the nonprofit that helped me rebuild community and trust in my body after cancer, deserves a spot on your end-of-year giving list. And then, because it is Christmas, I diagnose the eyeballs of Charlie Brown, the Grinch, Rudolph, and even Jack Skellington. From aniridia to jaundice to reindeer esotropia, it's a holiday episode only an ophthalmologist could make. Takeaways: The nonprofit that helped young adult cancer survivors, including me, find community, courage, and connection. Why Charlie Brown may actually have a real eye disorder (and why that “lovable loser” label is unfair). The Grinch's alarming scleral icterus and what it says about his liver. Why Rudolph's esotropia would make guiding a sleigh… mildly concerning. How Jack Skellington manages life with bilateral enucleation and why Sally might actually have the healthiest eyes in Halloween Town.

A glowing red nose didn't start as folklore—it started as copy. We follow Rudolph's unlikely path from a 1939 Montgomery Ward booklet written by Robert L. May, forged in grief and grit, to Johnny Marks' earworm melody and Gene Autry's reluctant hit that stormed both pop and country charts. Then we pull the curtain on the Rankin/Bass special: GE's sponsorship, Arthur Rankin's partnership with stop‑motion pioneer Tadahito Mochinaga, and the Animagic craft that studied real deer in Nara to give Rudolph those lifelike blinks and gentle turns. Commerce met creativity, and somehow a marketing project became a tradition that refuses to fade.We also sit with the hard questions. The bullying, the “man's work” line, Santa's chilly management style, and the idea that acceptance arrives only when difference becomes useful—these critiques have followed the special into the modern era. Defenders argue the story still delivers courage, resilience, and belonging. Between those poles is the real story of American holiday culture: capitalism can launch a narrative, but families, memories, and repetition give it meaning. That's how a department store promo turned into the longest‑running Christmas special on TV, and how a bright flaw became a guiding light.If you love media history, Christmas traditions, marketing strategy, stop‑motion animation, or pop culture debates, this one's for you. Hear how rights, royalties, and risk shaped a classic; how Canadian radio talent and Burl Ives sealed the deal; and why the special still pulls ratings decades later. Listen, share with a friend who hums along every year, and leave a review to help more curious listeners find the show.

EVEN MORE about this episode!Step into the magic of Christmas with psychic and medical intuitive Julie Ryan and renowned historian Dr. Gerry Bowler as they uncover the hidden spiritual origins and captivating history behind the world's most beloved holiday. From ancient winter rituals and medieval nativity traditions to the evolution of Santa Claus himself, this episode reveals the powerful symbols—angels, light, miracles, and more—that have shaped Christmas across centuries. If you've ever wondered why we celebrate the way we do—or simply want to feel the wonder of the season on a deeper level—this enchanting Christmas special is the perfect holiday treat. Guest Biography:Dr. Gerry Bowler, a historian from Saskatoon with degrees from the University of Saskatchewan and a Ph.D. from King's College London, has spent his career exploring the intersection of religion and popular culture after beginning as a scholar of Medieval and Early-Modern Europe. His wide-ranging work spans studies on The Simpsons, Aristotle and professional wrestling, Wayne Gretzky, and Bloody Mary, though he is best known for his extensive research on the history of Christmas. The author of numerous books—including The World Encyclopedia of Christmas, Santa Claus: A Biography, God and The Simpsons, and Christmas in the Crosshairs—Gerry has also contributed countless articles, encyclopedia entries, op-eds, and edited volumes, with his works translated into multiple languages worldwide. When not writing or teaching, he serves as a Senior Fellow at the Frontier Centre for Public Policy, where he humorously “shakes a fist at modern society and tells it to get off his lawn.”Episode Chapters:01:04 Exploring Christmas Traditions with Dr. Gerry Bowler02:13 Medieval Beliefs and Christmas04:25 The Emotional Impact of Christmas08:36 The Evolution of Christmas Traditions11:00 The Role of St. Nicholas and the Reformation14:03 The Reinvention of Christmas in the 19th Century19:09 Personal Reflections on Christmas21:41 Blending Winter Rituals with Christian Traditions24:39 The Star of Bethlehem and the Wise Men29:05 Christmas Markets and Modern Celebrations30:39 Canadian Christmas Inventions32:49 The Evolution of Santa Claus35:48 Rudolph and Commercialism37:26 Nativity Scenes and Their History41:11 Angels in Christmas Lore43:49 Symbolism of Light in Christmas48:11 Midnight Mass and Traditions49:55 Magical Christmas Superstitions51:40 Personal Reflections on Christmas➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Español YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Português YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Deutsch YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Français YouTube✏️Ask Julie a Question!

Clip of the Week-“Sanctification” Brother Rudolph Esclavon “While walking out one evening, not knowing where to go, and just to pass the lonely hour my heart was troubled so. A band of holy people came singing with all their might, I gave my heart to Jesus enlisted in the fight.” In 1903 in Lake Charles, LA, Bro. Rudolph Esclavon heard the sanctified people preaching on the street corner. Out of curiosity he stopped to hear what they had to say. He realized his lost condition when they preached that without holiness, “no man shall see the Lord”.  He then gave his all to Jesus and enlisted in the fight. In this sermon from Camp Meeting 1952, he preaches a powerful message on the necessary work of sanctification. Bro. Jeff Price  

Barry and Abigail discuss This Warm December and sample März of the Penguins, No Country For Old Penguins, and Midnight Waddle from Sneaky Penguin Brewing Company in Raleigh, North Carolina.We briefly discussed Eggnogorant by friends of the pod Terry Anderson & The Olympic Ass-Kickin Team. You can listen to Eggnogorant in our first-ever Christmas bonus episode, Bonus: Greet the Hummels... and Friends! (Original Holiday Songs by Friends of the Podcast).We acquired this beer while we were in Raleigh in October, when we had the opportunity to see Brandy Clark and Mary Chapin Carpenter in concert, featuring both friend of the pod Jon Carroll and the legendary Don Dixon in Carpenter's band. See the setlist of the show we saw!We played a sample of Stevie Wonder's original Someday at Christmas, covered by Jack Johnson on this album. Barry mentioned that Wonder's version should have made his personal Christmas music compilation - and he would probably remove Xmas at K-Mart by Root Boy Slim.Bruce Springsteen's live version of Santa Claus is Comin' to Town is the definitive version in Barry's eyes.Barry plugged the recent Beer in Front episode 276 Fresh Wet Hopped Episode, where he learned about wet hopping, which uses freshly picked hops in the brew and is not the opposite of dry hopping - learn more here. The most famous and mass-produced wet-hopped beer is Celebration from Sierra Nevada Brewing Company. Dave interviewed Bruz Beers and FlyteCo Brewing, both in Denver, Colorado, who collaborate annually on a wet-hopped beer called Hop Is My Co-Pilot. The brewing of this beer involves an airplane trip across the Rockies to collect freshly picked hops from Billy Goat Hop Farm in Montrose, Colorado. Read more about the incredible journey here!Abigail and Barry both declared that Zee Avi's No Christmas for Me is a modern Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses (and that both of those songs are modern O. Henry stories).Abigail mentioned that Stuck at the Airport by Money Mark is thematically similar to I'll Be Home for Christmas by Bing Crosby. This is one of the songs Abigail will frequently be compelled to listen to when her life circumstances match the lyrics of the song - the other one is It's Only Wednesday by Crash Kings.The Man in the Santa Suit by Neil Halstead reminded Abigail of Father Christmas by The Kinks. We played a little sample of Matt Nathanson's cover of Father Christmas, which appears on our 2022 Christmas playlist!Abigail did not recognize that Rogue Wave's Christmas was a cover of the Who song from Tommy. She compared the lyrics to Do They Know It's Christmas? by Band Aid.Barry compared Jack Johnson's variant lyrics in Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer to many of the songs on the Straight No Chaser album we reviewed in last year's Christmas episode, Christmas Beers (Straight No Chaser and Gifted Beers).Abigail, per usual, got Silent Night confused with O Holy Night.Listen to our 2025 Christmas playlist!Up next… Touch by EurythmicsJingles are by our friend Pete Coe.Visit Anosmia Awareness for more information on Barry's condition.Follow Barry or Abigail on Untappd to see what we're drinking when we're not on mic!Leave us a rating or a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | YouTube | Substack | Website | Email us | Virtual Jukebox | Beer Media Group

We kick off with just Jon talking about stuff and things [0:00 – 5:09], before the episode proper. He sounds kind of sad without Fintan there though.

First off, Fintan and Jon talk about some things, and a few other things, but not too many things [0:00 – 13:05].Then they're joined by author Markus Heitz to talk about his Gambling Book Awards-longlisted novel The Devil's Playbook, a complex thriller that intertwines elements of card games and historical fiction. He shares insights into his writing process, the significance of historical accuracy, and more. The discussion also touches on literary influences, the symbolism of the Ace of Spades, and the portrayal of vampires in literature. Heitz emphasizes his passion for storytelling and the importance of research in crafting compelling narratives.

Two holiday traditions, this Christmas Eve: NORAD's Santa Tracker and the NBA Christmas Games. First, CNBC's Steve Liesman shares a Christmas movie ranking, according to respondents of CNBC's All America Economic Survey. Then, longtime Kevin Durant agent Rich Kleiman chats through the five NBA matchups planned for Christmas Day. Finally, U.S. Air Force NORTHCOM Commander General Gregory Guillot explains how NORAD tracks Santa Claus along his journey around the globe on Christmas Eve. Turns out, Rudolph's nose does help navigation. Plus, a U.S. judge rejected a challenge to President Trump's $100K H1-B visa fee, and golfer Brooks Koepka has left Saudi-funded LIV Golf. Happy Holidays! Steve Liesman - 11:20Rich Kleiman - 19:13Gen.

It's the finale of our Christmas trilogy! Things have gotten dire as an Ultra Violet and Ultra Violent renegade Santa has appeared to punish our heroes. It's an epic battle of sacrifice, violence, and nasal laser. It's about to get James Hard: with a Vengeance!

It's time for a HOLIDAY REWIND! For a special treat, we're pulling from the big bag of oldies from the shows past and giving you one of our favorites, our conversation on 1964's RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER. We hope you enjoy, and have a Merry Christmas!    Original Release Date: December 17, 2021   Help support the show and join us on PATREON: https://patreon.com/dissectthatfilm LIKE, COMMENT, SUBSCRIBE, and HIT THE BELL  GO TO OUR LINKTREE FOR ALL OF OUR LINKS https://linktr.ee/dissectthatfilm Check out Dan's MTG podcast Manawurm on Spotify.

On today's episode, we discuss what Advent really is, how the candle colors and readings point to hope, peace, love, joy, and finally Christ, and why many low-church Protestants grew up never hearing about it at all. The conversation wrestles with whether Christians should say “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Holidays” in public spaces, and how to navigate witnessing without turning restaurants and workplaces into unwanted mission fields. Jimmy then digs into the history behind Christmas, arguing it is not borrowed from pagan festivals, explaining how early Christians connected Jesus' conception and death dates, and showing how commerce, Santa marketing, and Rudolph ads have reshaped the season. Along the way, the hosts have fun with Saint Nicholas as a gift-giver who also “punched heretics,” joke about Druids and Christmas trees, and reflect on wanting Christmas back as a truly Christian holy day rather than a generic winter break. Don't miss it!

Deck the halls with boughs of... floating embers? This week, The Filmlosophers gather for a holiday episode that feels more like a fever dream than a silent night. Hosts Eddie and Spencer, joined by Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy, attempt to navigate the dizzying spectacle of James Cameron's latest over-produced and over-complicated sci-fi epic, Avatar: Fire and Ash. The crew shares their full and genuinely confused thoughts on the volcanic "Ash People," the endless tech-specs, and whether Cameron has finally disappeared too far into his own motion-capture abyss. Before they escape the fires of Pandora, the team settles in for a cozy (and slightly heated) conversation about the unconventional Christmas films that define their holidays. While the group finds common ground on the high-rise heroics of Die Hard and the animated emotional gut-punch of Tokyo Godfathers, the festive spirit hits a speed bump when Amy takes the mic. She meticulously lays out her bizarrely passionate case for why the PTSD-fueled, explosive journey of Tony Stark in Iron Man 3 is a quintessential Christmas movie that belongs alongside Rudolph and Frosty. It's an episode full of holiday cheer, blockbuster bewilderment, and armor-plated arguments. So pull up a chair, grab your popcorn and tinsel, and tune in to this week's special holiday episode of The Filmlosophers!

Glamour, Einsamkeit und ein Verbrechen, das ganz Deutschland erschütterte. In der neuen Folge von BUNTE Menschen tauchen Barbara Fischer und Lilly Burger in das Leben von Rudolph Moshammer – dem exzentrischen Modezar, der sich aus einer schwierigen Kindheit bis an die Spitze der High Society kämpfte. Doch hinter der glitzernden Fassade lebte ein zerrissener Mann: hin- und hergerissen zwischen öffentlicher Bewunderung und tiefer innerer Leere, zwischen perfekter Kunstfigur und verletzlicher Realität. Und dann die Nacht, die alles veränderte: der brutale Mord, der nicht nur ein schillerndes Leben beendete, sondern auch das wahre Ausmaß seiner Einsamkeit offenlegte. Ein Kriminalfall, der zeigt, wie wenig wir wirklich über die Menschen wissen, die in der Öffentlichkeit stehen. Außerdem: Wie Stars wie Veronica Ferres, Hans Sigl und Co. Weihnachten feiern. Im Horoskop fragen wir die Sterne, was sie für Hollywood Star Nicole Kidman nach der Trennung von Musiker Keith Urban im Jahr 2026 bereithalten.

To wrap up our Holliganza this year, we take a look at a non-Rankin/Bass Rudolph short film that does its best to harken back to that original special and the way it was animated. Intended to be experienced with 4D effects, we didn't get to experience quite everything this short was intended to offer, but even still, was this a pleasant way to end the year? Listen to find out!

Listen to Robert L. May's original story of Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer who was not allowed to join in any reindeer games.

In this festive, laugh-out-loud episode, Tara is joined by Jackie Santillan and Priscilla Kavanaugh, hosts of the new We Say What podcast, for a cozy (and slightly chaotic) holiday roundtable that feels like catching up with friends over spiked cocoa. The trio swaps stories about how holiday traditions evolve as families grow, like coordinated outfits, holiday videos, and the never-ending question of whether sending Christmas cards is worth the time, money, or sanity. They also tackle holiday fashion (yes, buffalo plaid has officially taken over) and reflect on how modern motherhood adds a whole new layer to the “most wonderful time of the year.” Things really heat up when the conversation turns to holiday movies. Through a spirited bracket-style showdown, they debate classics like It's a Wonderful Life, Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, and modern favorites like Elf. Along the way, they unpack why childhood staples like Home Alone, Rudolph, The Grinch, and even The Muppets hold such powerful emotional weight, and why nostalgia often decides the winner long before the final argument is made. The hosts also touch on how portrayals of family dynamics in older films can be both hilarious and… a little questionable. By the end, the episode becomes less about crowning the “best” Christmas movie and more about what these films represent: memories, traditions, and the comfort of revisiting stories that shaped us. With plenty of humor, friendly debate, and knowing nods to the holiday hustle, Tara, Jackie and Priscilla remind listeners that the magic of the season isn't about doing it perfectly. It's about taking time to enjoy special moments with our families.

From the archives, the boys drink and review Crowhill's 2020 Christmas braggot (an ale with honey), then discuss the secularization of Christmas. P&C love the holiday festivities, but notice that the religious side of Christmas seems to be losing out to Santa, Rudolph, Frosty, and such. What's the balance between the penitential season of Advent and the ho ho silliness in the snow? And what about religion in public life? Should we be afraid to say "Merry Christmas" if we don't know the person is a Christian. Some people call it "the war on Christmas." Is that fair?

We round out this year's trilogy of Christmas episodes by exploring the made-for-TV Christmas classics that have awed generations. We're talking about the Rankin / Bass stop-motion films. We go all the way back to 1964 for Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, the longest-running Christmas special of all time. The company garnered another hit with the Santa origin story. Mickey Rooney and Fred Astaire lend their voices to Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town. Finally, Rooney returns in the hilarious and vibrant film, The Year Without A Santa Claus.Have you seen these animated classics?

The world of prehospital medicine is constantly evolving, driven by new research, technological advancements, and a shared commitment to improving patient care and provider well-being. As EMS professionals, staying informed about these developments goes beyond a professional obligation; it is an opportunity to improve our practice, champion our profession, and ultimately make a greater impact on saving lives. In this article, we will explore some of the latest research findings that are reshaping our field, from workplace culture to cutting-edge technology.   The Culture of Care: Supporting EMS Providers Our work is demanding, both physically and emotionally, and the culture within our agencies plays a critical role in our well-being. A recent systematic review in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health revealed that many EMS providers avoid using organizational mental health services due to stigma and a perception that these programs lack genuine care. The study emphasizes the need for person-centered support and a cultural shift that normalizes seeking help as a sign of strength (Johnston et al., 2025). This cultural component also impacts retention. Another study in the same journal found that agencies with collaborative, team-oriented "clan" cultures had significantly lower turnover rates compared to those with rigid or chaotic structures. For leaders in EMS, fostering a supportive environment is not just about morale. It is a strategic imperative for retaining skilled clinicians (Kamholz et al., 2025).   Professional Recognition: Breaking Barriers Across the globe, paramedics are striving for recognition as integrated healthcare professionals. A qualitative study in BMC Health Services Research identified common barriers, including outdated legislation, inconsistent regulation, and insufficient funding. While the pandemic temporarily highlighted our capabilities, the momentum has waned. The study calls for targeted policy reforms and investments in education and leadership to solidify our role in the broader healthcare system (Feerick et al., 2025). Physical Demands and Injury Prevention The physical toll of our work is undeniable. A scoping review in Applied Ergonomics confirmed that musculoskeletal injuries, particularly to the back, are rampant in EMS. Tasks like handling stretchers and patient extractions are among the most strenuous. The review also highlighted fitness disparities, with male paramedics generally showing more strength but less flexibility than their female counterparts. These findings underscore the need for targeted injury prevention programs and realistic physical standards to keep us safe throughout our careers (Marsh et al., 2025).   Advancements in Cardiac Arrest Care When it comes to cardiac arrest, every second counts. A study in Resuscitation reinforced the value of bystander CPR, showing that dispatcher-assisted CPR significantly improves outcomes for untrained bystanders. For those with prior CPR training, acting independently yielded even better results. This highlights the importance of public CPR education alongside dispatcher support (Tagami et al., 2025). On the scene, our interventions matter immensely. Research in The Journal of Emergency Medicine found that for traumatic cardiac arrest patients, aggressive interventions like prehospital thoracostomy can be lifesaving (McWilliam et al., 2025). Meanwhile, a study in Critical Care Medicine revealed that extracorporeal CPR (ECPR) significantly improves outcomes for patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation, emphasizing the need for early transport to specialized centers.   The Role of Technology in EMS Technology is poised to revolutionize EMS, from dispatch to diagnosis. A study in The American Journal of Emergency Medicine demonstrated that large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT could prioritize ambulance requests with remarkable accuracy, aligning with expert paramedic decisions over 76 percent of the time. This proof of concept suggests that AI could one day enhance resource allocation in dispatch centers (Shekhar et al., 2025). On the diagnostic front, machine learning is opening new possibilities. For example, a study in Bioengineering showed that analyzing photoplethysmography waveforms could estimate blood loss in trauma patients, offering a non-invasive way to guide resuscitation (Gonzalez et al., 2025). Similarly, research in Medical Engineering & Physics explored using multidimensional data to differentiate ischemic from hemorrhagic strokes in the field, potentially enabling more targeted prehospital care (Alshehri et al., 2025).   Addressing Disparities in Care Equity in EMS is a cornerstone of our profession, yet recent studies highlight troubling disparities. Research in JAMA Network Open found that ambulance offload times were significantly longer in communities with higher proportions of Black residents (Zhou et al., 2025). Another study in JAMA Surgery revealed that Black and Asian trauma patients were less likely to receive helicopter transport compared to White patients. These findings are a call to action for all of us to examine our systems and biases to ensure equitable care for every patient (Mpody et al., 2025).   Looking Ahead The research discussed here represents just a fraction of the advancements shaping EMS today. From improving workplace culture and injury prevention to leveraging AI and addressing systemic inequities, these findings have real-world implications for our protocols, training, and advocacy efforts. As EMS professionals, we have a responsibility to stay informed and apply these insights to our practice.

Because nothing says "Christmas" like my annual shredding of the holiday classic.  (Sorry, Christmas.)

This Christmas, I thought it would be fun to analyze six popular Christmas songs referencing animals-other-than-humans (mostly mammals who are forced to pull people around the snow in sleds, and then some birds, mainly fowl who are killed and eaten by humans but sometimes avians humans admire for their beauty). The songs are  Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Run Run Rudolph, Sleigh Ride, Jingle Bells, The 12 Days of Christmas, and Nat King Cole's The Christmas Song.  In this 24-minute podcast (originally recorded Christmas 2024), I deconstruct these Christmas songs from a Critical Animal Studies perspective. In other words, as an animal rights activist who is sympathetic to the more-than-human-world and the perspectives and interests of other animal individuals and our shared habitats, I analyze these classic songs and what lessons they teach us about fellow animal species and how we could be more respectful, kind of like those Politically Correct Bedtime Story series that gives you a critical yet humorous perspective on classic tales in Western society. My Radio Free Georgia version of this episode has the license to broadcast these popular songs, but for my podcast friends, I don't have copyright permission to play the songs, so I linked to the youtube versions of the songs in the podcast notes here below. For the recording, I'll put a jingle bell sound in there when you can cue up the songs to play yourself if you want to. But I'll speak the key lyrics dealing with animals that I discuss.

In this Healthy Waves episode, Avik Chakraborty sits down with Anjuly Rudolph to cut through the noise around yoga. They unpack why yoga is not just poses or flexibility goals, and how the original purpose is mind training, nervous system regulation, and emotional balance. Anjuly breaks down what gets lost in modern “fitness-only” yoga culture, shares beginner-friendly entry points for busy people, and explains why breathwork, grounding, and proper relaxation are non negotiable if you want results that actually stick. Expect practical, at-home micro habits you can run for 7 to 14 days to feel a real shift in stress, sleep, and energy. About the Guest: Anjuly Rudolph is a transformational catalyst blending yoga, hypnosis, energy healing, and coaching. Raised with deep yogic roots in an Indian family, she has carried this work across Uganda, Burundi, Syria, Tunisia, and Germany. She also trains yoga teachers in Germany and focuses on making yoga practical, grounded, and culturally respectful. Key Takeaways: Yoga is a full system for mind and energy, not just stretching or fitness. Asanas are only one small part of yoga. The bigger goal is calming mental fluctuations. A beginner does not need flexibility. Lack of flexibility is often the reason to start gently. Simple joint movements can be a low-barrier daily practice for mobility and stress release. Breath awareness is a fast lever for shifting your nervous system state. Grounding at the start of practice helps you actually “arrive” in your body. Final relaxation matters. Skipping it breaks the system and reduces benefits. Yoga Nidra is not the same as lying down quietly. It is a structured practice. Yoga supports emotional processing even when you cannot clearly name the emotion. A practical 14-day test: 2 minutes of conscious breathing morning and night, plus joint movement before sleep.

It's Christmassss! It's our annual Staying Relevant Christmas episode and this year we've swapped Santa and Rudolph costumes for something far more sophisticated. Matching pyjamassss. A choice Pete was NOT thrilled about, mainly because he doesn't even own pyjamas.We're spreading festive cheer as the boys compare their wildly different Christmases, quickly sparking a classic Pete rant on why he hates Christmas, why no one actually enjoys it, and why everyone suddenly pretends cheese only exists in December.To lighten the mood, we also take on Secret Santa, with a special extra present in store for Sam.

Welcome back to Scene Missing, the show where we dig past the highlight reels and get into the real story. This time, Gabriel Hardman, Ian Brill, and I take a hard, unsentimental look at the career of Burl Ives—a performer whose legacy is far bigger, messier, and more complicated than the warm baritone most people remember.We start with the role that earned him Hollywood's highest honor: his Oscar-winning turn as Rufus Hannassey in The Big Country, opposite Gregory Peck, Jean Simmons, and Charlton Heston—a performance that weaponized charm into something quietly menacing. From there, we contrast it with the brutal, snowbound moral reckoning of Day of the Outlaw, where Ives delivers one of the coldest outlaw portrayals ever put on film. We also explore his unexpected presence in prestige drama, including Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, sharing the screen with Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor, and how his earthy gravitas grounded Tennessee Williams' overheated world.On television, we revisit his folksy patriarch on O.K. Crackerby!, his later dramatic turn on The Bold Ones: The Lawyers, and how TV both extended and softened his public image. And yes—we absolutely talk about the role that permanently etched him into pop culture: the voice of Sam the Snowman in Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, a performance so comforting it practically erased the edge of the man behind it.But we don't stop at acting. Ives' massive influence as a folk singer is front and center—from “Blue Tail Fly” to “Big Rock Candy Mountain”—along with the career-altering moment that still sparks controversy: his testimony before the House Un-American Activities Committee, where he named names, including Pete Seeger, reshaping both of their legacies in opposite directions. This isn't a tribute. It's an honest conversation about talent, ambition, fear, and compromise—and how one man could be a beloved storyteller, a terrifying screen presence, and a cautionary tale all at once.
