240: Happy Blooming Christmas! (Father Christmas)

Happy Monday, Christmas Fanatics! 

In this week's episode, Julia, Thom, and Anthony hop a plane across the pond to cover the 1991, British-animated holiday special, "Father Christmas" - based on the book by Raymond Briggs. Does this cartoon do more for Anthony and Thom than "The Snowman" did? Does Julia, who is normally the most kind to these foreign specials, find her heart warmed by the most curmudgeonly Santa covered since perhaps Ed Asner's in "Elf"? Tune in to find out the answers to these questions, in addition to much more random discussion, in this fun, festive episode that will give you all of the Ber Month feels!      

And if you want more "Tis the Podcast" goodness, make sure to check your feeds this upcoming Thursday, September 16th, to hear Chapter 33 of “Another Christmas Story” entitled “I'll be Home for Christmas”, which everybody's favorite elf, Julia Colburn herself, will be reading to you! Enjoy, y'all! 🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🔔 🚂🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️
