On this special Christmas holiday episode of the podcast, Chauncey DeVega reflects on this very surreal and challenging year and tries to find some mirth, merriment, positive energy and joy to refill his (and our) hope tanks. Chauncey taps into the joy of childhood nostalgia and a longing for a simpler time as he looks through store catalogues from the 1980s in search of his favorite Transformers and G.I. Joe toys, and then calculates how much they would cost in today's dollars. Chauncey soon realizes he likely would have been the parent telling the kids, "Hell no!" Disney, the WWE, and other entertainment companies have announced that they will be using AI programs to "assist" in their creative process. In the spirit of embracing the future, Chauncey DeVega asks an AI to write a Christmas-themed crossover mega-event movie featuring Star Wars, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, James Gunn's version of Superman, Santa Claus, Frosty the Snowman, and Krampus. The results are "troubling" for what they suggest about the present and future of mass media in the 21st century and beyond. This year's Christmas and holiday season are a painful reminder that the collapse of American democracy in the Age of Trump is also an extreme moral crisis, touching almost every aspect of American society and life. To that point, Chauncey shares a recent news story about how ICE has enlisted "Santa Claus" — equipped with a red bulletproof vest and handcuffs — to assist in its mass deportation campaign.

Even if the yule log has stopped burning and the eggnog is all drank up, the holiday cheer doesn't have to end on the 25th, right?? ... work with us here, this is what happens when a regular podcast schedule meets the realities of awkward holiday timing. Bakertoons returns to the podcast to help us check out the final member of the Festive Four, Frosty the Snowman, and the special that took a dysfunctional family to the big time in Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire. You'd think there's not a lot of daylight between the two, but since both star rotund, not so bright protagonists, it actually kind of works out.
GGACP celebrates Christmas Day by revisiting this fan favorite extravaganza from 2017 as holiday fixture Mario Cantone drops by the studio to chime in on everything from the infamous Bette Davis-Joan Crawford feud to the not-so-special effects of “Mighty Joe Young” to the strange predilections of Frosty the Snowman. Also, Dracula plays heavy metal, Carol Kane plays Gilbert's wife, Mario learns the Perfecto Telles story (!) and the co-hosts rank the best (and worst) adaptations of “A Christmas Carol.” PLUS: Dueling Dylans! “The Bear Who Slept Through Christmas”! The genius of Alan Menken! In praise of Leonard Maltin! And the (triumphant) return of Carol Channing and Herve' Villechaize! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Episode Title: "Santa's 3D Printer & The Killer Snowman" - Fantasy Takes Over & The Mechanoids Attack! - Patreon Exclusive Sample CHRISTMAS EVE GIFT TO OUR LISTENERS: The Doctor's Beard Podcast delivers a festive Patreon Exclusive perfect for the holiday! Join John (as Santa Claus) and Jim (as the Evil/Demon Magician) as they unwrap a mixed Santa's bag - three Doctor Who strips from the 12-week Dalek Master Plan era, plus an emotionally satisfying Dalek comic featuring the Mechanoids' first appearance! THE SEA CHANGE: Jim identifies a major shift in the Doctor Who strip: "The stories have really become little fantasies than science fiction." What began as simplistic but genuine sci-fi has transformed into Oz-esque fantasy adventures with frog people, ancient mariners, and yes - Santa Claus himself. DOCTOR WHO STRIPS: "SHARK BAIT" (November 22 - December 13, 1965) Writer/Artist: Bill Mevin The Doctor helps frog people with their shark problem before the story pivots to an ancient mariner trying to claim the TARDIS as his home. Meandering plot reminiscent of Dalek Master Plan's mid-story shifts. "A CHRISTMAS STORY" (December 20, 1965 - January 10, 1966) Writer/Artist: Bill Mevin John's bold claim: "Actually better than the TV episode [Feast of Steven]!" Santa Claus appears as a character (Jim loves this trope from comics), falling behind on toy TARDIS production due to overwhelming demand. The Doctor saves Christmas by providing Santa with... a 3D printer! "Maybe the Doctor gave us 3D printing. Whoever thinks they invented it needs to read this story." The B-Plot: A creepy demon magician hampers Santa's efforts. But the REAL terror? The Killer Snowman who literally tries to choke John to death! John recognizes similarities to Matt Smith's "The Snowman" Christmas special, theorizing Russell T. Davies and Steven Moffat were subconsciously influenced by childhood comic memories. "Bill Mevin's family needs a few ducats... or grubsits." "THE DYTUS EXPEDITION" (January 22 - February 12, 1966) Writer/Artist: Bill Mevin The long-extinct Dytus bird escapes a space zoo. The Doctor offers to recapture it, leading to jungle adventures with unfortunate native stereotypes (echoing the recent Monstrons issue). Jim gets "a real Doctor Dolittle vibe" from the giant creature quest on an island. Both hosts confess: "I like stories about space zoos" (with John teasing an upcoming episode will satisfy this). THE DALEKS: "EVE OF WAR" (December 11, 1965 - January 8, 1966) Writer: David Whitaker (from Terry Nation's concepts) Artists: Richard Jennings (Parts 1-5), Ron Turner (Parts 6-7) Artist Change Alert: Ron Turner takes over for the final two installments, redesigning Daleks to resemble the movie versions. He continues as the strip's artist going forward. The Story: After rebuilding Skaro in "just a few months" (!) with intricate surveillance to prevent future invasions, the Daleks plan to mine nearby planet Auric. That's when the Mechanoids attack. This is the "first meeting" between Daleks and Mechanoids in strip continuity - different from TV universe. The Mechanoids are presented as equally conquering, totally machine entities (unlike the Daleks with organic components inside). Key moment: The strip explicitly clarifies Mechanoids are "totally machine" while Daleks are not - important distinction! True Cliffhanger: The story literally ends mid-narrative with "TO BE CONTINUED" - not just teasing the next adventure but stopping in the middle of this one! THE BIG QUESTION: John asks Jim: "Do you find yourself enjoying reading these more than watching some of the Dalek stories on TV?" Only one Dalek strip disappointed them across the entire run - and the end approaches! Time to buy the collection. MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE DOCTOR'S BEARD PODCAST!

more:fluentfiction.com/no/episode/2025-12-23-23-34-02-no Story Transcript:No: Vigelandsparken lå stille under et tynt lag av snø.En: Vigelandsparken lay quietly under a thin layer of snow.No: Himmelen var grå, men til og med de dystre skyene kunne ikke skjule skjønnheten i de mange statuene.En: The sky was gray, but even the gloomy clouds couldn't hide the beauty of the many statues.No: Turister gikk rundt med kameraer, ivrige etter å fange noen minner av parken.En: Tourists walked around with cameras, eager to capture some memories of the park.No: Blant dem gikk Lars, klønete og morsom i sitt snømannskostyme.En: Among them walked Lars, clumsy and funny in his snowman costume.No: Han holdt et stort kamera og hadde en plan om å lage årets beste julekort.En: He held a large camera and had a plan to make the best Christmas card of the year.No: Lars elsket julen.En: Lars loved Christmas.No: Han hadde bestemt seg for at årets kort skulle være noe helt spesielt.En: He had decided that this year's card should be something completely special.No: Derfor hadde han på seg dette gigantiske, komiske snømannkostymet.En: Therefore he wore this gigantic, comical snowman costume.No: Problemet var bare at han nesten ikke kunne bevege seg.En: The only problem was that he could hardly move.No: "Det er så kaldt!En: "It's so cold!"No: " klaget Lars og viftet med armene.En: complained Lars as he waved his arms.No: "Og jeg kan nesten ikke se noe!En: "And I can hardly see anything!No: Hvordan skal jeg ta et bilde av meg selv?En: How am I supposed to take a picture of myself?"No: "Eva og Sven,

smile.No: "Men vi skal hjelpe deg.En: "But we'll help you."No: "Lars så seg rundt, håpet at en idé ville komme til ham.En: Lars looked around, hoping that an idea would come to him.No: Statuene så ut til å stirre tilbake, nesten som om de også moret seg over hans skumle situasjon.En: The statues seemed to stare back, almost as if they were also amused by his tricky situation.No: Til slutt fikk Lars øye på en sokkel uten statue.En: Finally, Lars spotted a pedestal without a statue.No: Kanskje, tenkte han, han kunne stå der og få det perfekte bildet?En: Maybe, he thought, he could stand there and get the perfect picture?No: "Kan dere løfte meg opp dit?En: "Can you lift me up there?"No: " spurte han Eva og Sven.En: he asked Eva and Sven.No: "Er du sikker?En: "Are you sure?"No: " spurte Eva skeptisk.En: asked Eva skeptically.No: "Det ser farlig ut.En: "It looks dangerous."No: ""Det vil bli perfekt!En: "It will be perfect!"No: " insisterte Lars.En: insisted Lars.No: Med mye latter og fomling fikk de løftet Lars opp på sokkelen.En: With much laughter and fumbling, they managed to lift Lars onto the pedestal.No: Han stilte opp kameraet på et stativ og satte timeren.En: He set up the camera on a tripod and set the timer.No: "Kom nærmere!En: "Come closer!"No: " ropte Lars til vennene sine.En: shouted Lars to his friends.No: "Vi skal være på bildet sammen.En: "We should be in the picture together."No: "De satte seg ved sokkelens kant mens timeren tikket ned.En: They sat by the edge of the pedestal as the timer counted down.No: Så kom øyeblikket.En: Then came the moment.No: Kameraet klikket.En: The camera clicked.No: Men idet Lars lener seg fremover, mister han balansen og faller rett av sokkelen og ned i snøen.En: But as Lars leaned forward, he lost his balance and fell right off the pedestal into the snow.No: Eva og Sven kunne ikke annet enn å le.En: Eva and Sven couldn't help but laugh.No: Lars lå i en snødrift, med snøhatt og kost i alle retninger.En: Lars lay in a snowdrift, with snow hat and broom in all directions.No: Det var langt fra det perfekte bildet Lars hadde sett for seg, men i det øyeblikket forstod han noe viktig.En: It was far from the perfect picture Lars had imagined, but at that moment he understood something important.No: De uventede øyeblikkene var ofte de beste, dem som ble minnet for livet.En: The unexpected moments were often the best, those that became memories for life.No: "Greit, dette er den beste julegaven," lo Lars, fortsatt liggende i snøen.En: "Okay, this is the best Christmas gift," laughed Lars, still lying in the snow.No: "En jul jeg aldri vil glemme!En: "A Christmas I'll never forget!"No: "Lars kikket opp mot statuene som fortsatt sto majestetiske og uforstyrrede.En: Lars looked up at the statues that still stood majestic and undisturbed.No: Han smilte, lettet over å innse at perfeksjon ikke alltid var nødvendig, spesielt ikke i julen.En: He smiled, relieved to realize that perfection wasn't always necessary, especially not at Christmas.No: Det ufullkomne fikk til tider en selvsagt plass i hjertet.En: The imperfect sometimes found a natural place in the heart.

DING DONG MERRILY ON HIGH! MAYBE TOO HIGH? JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD toast and roast the seasonal cinematic chestnuts that have been served to genre fans over the years. Not even The Grinch can stop… OVERRATED & UNDERRATED: THE HOLIDAY EDITION! Every holiday season, we Monster Partiers celebrate with an expansive and diverse playlist of winter wonder films. Whether made for film or TV, the entertainment industry has not been shy in churning out a Santa's sleigh-bag of holiday-themed horror, sci-fi, and fantasy fare. Ranging from beloved animated TV specials like Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Frosty the Snowman, and A Charlie Brown Christmas, to Christmas classics like It's A Wonderful Life, March of The Wooden Soldiers, and White Christmas, and even offbeat and often controversial viewing like Silent Night Deadly Night, Gremlins, Fatman, The Thing, and Batman Returns, it's relatively safe to say that there's something for every taste. But are all these so-called classics as good as everyone thinks? And should some films and TV specials have a better reputation than they currently hold? Whatever your opinions, we guarantee that this episode will present challenging arguments that only MONSTER PARTY could inflict. Joining us for this canticle of criticism is a long-time friend of MONSTER PARTY, and our answer to Kris Kringle. He's a brilliantly talented comedian, actor, writer, producer, and podcaster, who has worked on or created such genre-friendly projects as THE SIMPSONS, SUPER ADVENTURE TEAM, THE GEX TRILOGY, TED, CREEPSHOW: THE SERIES, TALES OF HALLOWEEN, STAN AGAINST EVIL, and HANGING WITH DOCTOR Z. Please welcome back, the Christmas miracle that is… DANA GOULD! HAPPY HOLIDAYS, MONSTER PARTIERS! AND HAVE A CUP OF EGG NOG, IF ONLY TO ANNOY LARRY.

It's our annual holiday spectacular! And once again we're talking about old Christmas cartoons, because that's all we care about. But this time, we're looking at a couple of cartoons we've never discussed on the show before, and they're both based on classic comic strips. (They're also both on YouTube, if you want to play along.) From 1979, A Family Circus Christmas features a ghost Santa, a candy cane farm in the clouds, a busty mom, and plenty of crazy jazz flute. And from 1982, Ziggy's Gift features the scrawny tree from Charlie Brown Christmas, the Irish cop from Frosty the Snowman, a creepy gray guy, and a million screaming turkeys. Both are magnificent.

The one where Green Blooded Bastard watches Once Upon a Snowman. I'd say that this film is a let down, but I'll just let it go.
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.

To finish up our Disney Series, we wanted to talk about a few things you can do that don't involve the four main parks. Putt Putt and Water Parks! Winter Summerland Mini GolfIt's festive, holiday-themed mini-golf, featuring two unique 18-hole courses (Winter & Summer) that tell the story of Santa and his elves building a Florida vacation spot, with wintry, snowy obstacles on the Winter course and tropical, beachy elements on the Summer course, offering year-round Christmas fun for all ages. Key Features:Two Courses: You can choose between the snowy, North Pole-themed Winter Course or the sandy, tropical Summer Course, both celebrating Christmas.Immersive Theming: Expect festive decorations like snow-covered pine trees, melting snowmen, Santa's RV, palm trees, and even Squirty the Snowman, who sprays water. Fantasia Gardens and Fairways Mini GolfDisney World miniature golf complex near the Swan & Dolphin Resort, featuring two distinct 18-hole courses: Fantasia Gardens, a whimsical, family-friendly course themed to the movie Fantasia with characters and obstacles, and Fantasia Fairways, a more challenging, scaled-down traditional golf course with bunkers, water hazards, and sloping greens. Guests can play either course for a different experience, with the Gardens course focusing on fun and the Fairways course on skill. Typhoon LagoonTyphoon Lagoon is a typhoon-themed water park. It opened in 1989. The park's theme is based on a storm that destroyed a tropical paradise, featuring a 60-foot-tall man-made volcano, "Mount Mayday," with a shipwrecked shrimp boat, "Miss Tilly," on top. Key features: The park is home to one of the world's largest outdoor wave pools, generating 6-foot swells every 90 seconds.Typhoon Lagoon Surf Pool: A massive wave pool.Castaway Creek: A lazy river that circles the park.Slides: Including Humunga Kowabunga (three dark speed slides), Storm Slides (body slides), and Missadventure Falls (a family raft ride).Crush 'n' Gusher: A water coaster with two-person rafts.Ketchakiddee Creek: A water play area designed for children 48 inches and shorter.Fun Fact: The park's mascot is Lagoona Gator, who is related to the mascot of the nearby Blizzard Beach water park Blizzard Beach Blizzard Beach is a unique, ski resort-themed water park built around the whimsical backstory of a freak Florida blizzard that created a melted ski resort. Key Features:Theme: A melting ski resort with a "snowy" vibe, complete with ski patrol theming and icy-looking structures.Attractions: Includes extreme slides (Summit Plummet, Downhill Double Dipper), family raft rides, a lazy river, and kids' areas.Summit Plummet: a 120-foot-tall (12 stories) freefall body slide that plunges riders at speeds up to 60 mph down a near-vertical slope, mimicking a ski jump for an intense, quick thrill.Mount Gushmore: The central mountain structure that houses many of the slides, accessible by a ski lift.Melt-Away Bay: A large wave pool.Heated Water: The water is kept warm, making it enjoyable year-round
