Dan and Brian celebrate their 150th episode with their annual tradition of discussing four different Christmas Carol adaptations. This year the theme is modern-set adaptations: Spirited from 2022, Scrooged from 1988, It's Christmas, Carol from 2012, and Carol for Another Christmas from 1964.
Join as they discuss the delights and challenges of a postmodern Dickens adaptation, the "cool but cruel" late-80s mindset, the joys and quirks of Hallmark's prodigious holiday output, and Rod Serling's thoughtful but didactic, UN-sponsored approach to the material.
