00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:13.039
Live from what the zoning board describes as technically standing and what Google Maps lists as question marks, it's the sixth annual Totally Red Christmas Awards.
00:00:13.199 --> 00:00:55.600
Hit it, I'm not sure if you're a little bit of a little bit of a little bit.
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:10.239
That's right, there's been six whole years of 80s Christmas awesomeness, and also six years of the Academy saying nothing can go wrong this year, and then immediately getting humbled by the universe.
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:13.519
But man, what a night! What a night.
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:16.159
All the stars are out, they're shining bright.
00:01:16.319 --> 00:01:18.959
We've got all the Christmas podcasters here tonight.
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:24.560
Uh I've seen all the hosts of my favorite podcasts walk in the red carpet, looking absolutely amazing.
00:01:24.719 --> 00:01:29.359
Uh Jeff and Jay, Art Kilmer, Scott Leopold, so many guests have arrived.
00:01:29.439 --> 00:01:36.400
Uh Mike Westbald just got here in a powdered wig and velvet tailcoat because he said if we're doing Haunted Mansion, we're committing.
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.200
And he got all that just from seeing a picture of the venue.
00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:40.400
Bold choice.
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:44.400
Tim Babb is looking dapper in a glow-in-the-dark, a bomb for Christmas sweater.
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:47.280
The Saturday morning mafia are here dressed like the wet bandits.
00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:49.200
It's actually quite impressive.
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:55.920
Anthony Caruso arrived in what he described as haunted chic, but it's really just Michael Cain's black Ebenezer Scrooge costume.
00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:59.200
Um he's committing to the bit, and you know, I applaud him for that.
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:02.159
I saw Tom Crow earlier wearing a shepherd's robe again.
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:03.280
He says it's timeless.
00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:06.079
I mean, I agree, but we'll see what the trades say tomorrow.
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:12.080
Uh Julia Colburn looks stunning in a black and gold gown inspired by the 1980s gothic soap operas.
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:14.080
It's like Dynasty meets Dracula.
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:15.439
It's powerful stuff.
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:17.520
Scott Newman's in a trench coat.
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:18.560
No one knows why.
00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:22.000
Uh Kristen Searing rolled up looking amazing in a hearse.
00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:25.199
She insists it's rented, but I I have my doubts, honestly.
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:32.159
Christmas cousins are dressed like ghost hunters from a syndicated 1987 cable show that ran for six episodes and disappeared mysteriously.
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:38.240
And uh rumor has it that the Academy treasurer even arrived wearing running shoes in case the structure shifts.
00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:39.919
Now, I know what you're thinking.
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:43.599
Jerry, why are we outside a house that looks like Scooby-Doo investigated it?
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:44.879
Well, great question.
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:56.800
Turns out the insurance companies will not cover an awards show when the paperwork includes time travel mishaps, gremlin infestations, motherbrain henchman attacks, and a clause they're now calling the Jerry D provision.
00:02:56.960 --> 00:03:01.280
Apparently, interdimensional consequences falls under pre-existing conditions.
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:02.000
Really?
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:03.199
Come on, guys.
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:11.120
So every venue declined, every ballroom declined, every conference center declined, even the Holiday and Express says we don't feel safe.
00:03:11.199 --> 00:03:13.919
So the Academy found us this place, and it was perfect.
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:16.159
Because technically nobody owns it.
00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:19.360
Which makes it financially a Christmas miracle.
00:03:19.759 --> 00:03:24.879
Uh, you know, but hey, it's got ambiance and cool architecture.
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:26.560
Yeah, we'll go with that.
00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:29.120
Anyway, the trades are already buzzing.
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:32.159
Word is a race for the Raddiss Disney episode is closer than ever.
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:35.199
There's talk of an upset in the Raddis music category.
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:40.479
Uh, and apparently there are several write-in votes from something called the Haverford Winter Ball Committee.
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:41.919
We did not authorize that.
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:43.039
Don't know who that is.
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:50.000
So again, welcome Christmas lovers to the sixth annual Totally Rad Christmas Awards, the most tubular holiday event in the entire world.
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:51.680
I'll break it down like this.
00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:54.719
It was 2025, but it was all about the 80s.
00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.919
I'm your host, Jerry D with a fantastic No, you know what?
00:03:58.000 --> 00:03:59.199
That's not strong enough there.
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:11.680
A super mega ultra, dare I say, so lar, night of totally rad Christmas, the podcast that talks all things Christmas in the 80s, toys, movies specials, music, books, decorations, comics, food, fashion, and fads.
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:14.800
If it was gnarly during Christmas in the 80s, we got it covered.
00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:22.079
But I guess it's I better kick off this party by introducing my unbelievable co-hosts, and uh speak of the devil, Luke who's coming up the carpet.
00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:23.439
It's Chad Young.
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:25.759
Chad, it's uh it's great to see you tonight.
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.639
First question right off the bat: how are you feeling coming out?
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:29.680
I don't know, man.
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:35.680
That house makes me think we're about to investigate class four full torso apparition.
00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:37.519
Uh that's fair.
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:40.399
Uh let me ask you, you know, who are you wearing?
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.319
Uh Docs from the thrift store.
00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:47.519
Uh, okay, tell me a little bit more about your look.
00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:51.920
Uh, it's called I Only Own One Formal Outfit and I refuse to buy it.
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:54.879
I respect that for sure.
00:04:55.120 --> 00:05:00.000
Well, I mean, had I known it was a creepy-looking house, I would have worn some Ghostbusters in here.
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:02.160
God knows I have a lot of it.
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:03.360
It's fine.
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:05.120
It's not like it's haunted or anything.
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:08.879
Uh well, how about what are you most excited for after the show?
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:10.800
Uh, surviving?
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:12.319
That house makes me want to run.
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:17.040
Like, I feel like Mary Lou Maloney and Sammy Kerr are about to come out and kill us.
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:18.720
I think we're fine, man.
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:19.680
It's not that bad.
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:20.959
Uh, well, here's one more.
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:21.199
Okay.
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:23.759
Who's your pick for Raddist Halloween episode?
00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:27.040
Uh we'll find out later.
00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:28.480
Okay, I'll take it.
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:29.040
I'll take it.
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:31.600
Well, it's good to see her here, and I'll catch you inside.
00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:35.839
Uh oh, and now we've got uh CJ Belanger in the house.
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:37.600
CJ, how are you feeling about tonight?
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.879
You know, I'm feeling a little haunted but chic.
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:43.920
I get it, guys.
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:44.399
It's fine.
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:45.759
It's nothing bad's gonna happen.
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:47.360
Uh, who are you wearing tonight?
00:05:47.680 --> 00:06:02.240
Uh I'm wearing uh track pants by Target, uh Jordan 4 Retros by Footlocker, uh a white plane shirt by Markswork Warehouse, and a Yankees Fitted by Lids.
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:04.319
Man, I love that.
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:06.959
Uh okay, but here's a real red carpet question for you.
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:08.959
What's your favorite thing about this setting?
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:13.439
I love how it says welcome, but also you're not leaving.
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:14.720
Okay, I'll take that.
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.279
Uh any guesses on who's winning what tonight?
00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:19.199
Jerry, you know me pretty well.
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:20.720
I honestly don't care.
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:24.000
I just want to win my 101st Ratty.
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:25.360
Yeah, that checks out.
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:28.079
Uh, early predictions for Raddist animated episode?
00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:32.000
You know, Jerry, I'm more concerned about Raditz structural integrity.
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:33.040
For sure.
00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:34.879
That thing is a little rickety there.
00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:36.000
Uh okay, what about this?
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:38.639
Any message for the people listening at home?
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:40.399
Keep it real, Jabronies.
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:41.199
Peace!
00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:43.839
Alright, best of luck to LC inside.
00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:46.319
Oh, and here's uh here's Mike Westphal.
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:48.160
Uh Mike, how are you feeling?
00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:52.160
I have never been more prepared for an event in my life.
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:57.360
You know, that should be the Raddies motto after everything we've been through, but uh it's really not.
00:06:57.519 --> 00:06:59.040
Uh tell me about your look tonight.
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:00.240
Who are you wearing?
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:07.680
Uh, an outfit that says I will be an adult and a clipboard that says I will probably fail.
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:08.560
Okay.
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:11.519
Uh well, what about your thoughts on tonight?
00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:14.720
Well, that house gives me the heebie-jeebies.
00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:20.240
I gotta say though, if anyone says don't cross the streams, I'm leaving.
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:21.199
Noted, okay.
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:22.000
Leaving.
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:23.279
Well, we don't want that.
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:26.000
Uh, what's the first thing you're doing when this is over?
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:34.879
I'm going to Disneyland! No, I'll probably polish my new ratdies and put them in my display case if I make it out a lot.
00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:37.759
Classic, but I'm sure you'll be able to do that.
00:07:37.839 --> 00:07:38.800
It's not that bad.
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:41.519
If the house allows me to.
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:43.600
Good luck to you, sir.
00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:44.720
I'll see you inside.
00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:46.399
There's there's Tom Crow.
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:46.879
Tom.
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:47.439
Tom.
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:48.639
Hey, it's Tom Crow.
00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:50.800
Tom, how are you feeling coming out tonight?
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:52.399
Centered.
00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:54.319
Slightly damp.
00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:56.160
It's humid, isn't it?
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:58.800
Uh, yeah, there's a weird chill in the air.
00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:02.160
Um, it's a little sticky, but tell me a little bit about your outfit, you know.
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:03.279
Who are you wearing?
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:04.560
Providence.
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:07.759
That's that's extremely on brand.
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:08.720
Okay, okay.
00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:10.800
Uh, serious red carpet question then.
00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:13.360
Any advice you'd give to young award show hosts?
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.240
Um speak clearly.
00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:18.560
Pause.
00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:21.600
With intention.
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:31.839
And since I did not bring any holy water with me to perform an exorcism, if a ghost asks you to join them in the upstairs parlor, decline.
00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:34.240
That's great point.
00:08:34.320 --> 00:08:36.480
I mean, that's just great advice for life, guys.
00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:38.720
Uh, are you going to the after party later?
00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:39.679
Yes.
00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:42.559
Somebody's gotta pray for this group here.
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:44.320
Now we're talking.
00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:46.159
Alright, I'll see you inside.
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:48.639
Uh, all the co-hosts are here.
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:49.919
They're inside now.
00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:51.679
We can get this party started.
00:08:51.840 --> 00:08:54.799
The wind is threatening what little hair I have left anyway.
00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:56.960
Uh the house feels like it's threatening my soul.
00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:58.240
I mean, I'm sure it's fine, though.
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:00.000
It's it's not that it can't be that bad, right?
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:01.519
It's not like it's haunted.
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:07.440
Well, I guess the door did just open on its own.
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.200
Um, uh well, who says hospitality and chivalry are dead?
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:17.840
Welcome inside, everybody! Please note, if the floor tilts, lean into it.
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:20.399
Didn't the stage just cave in a little?
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:22.559
That was not atmospheric.
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:23.840
That was structural.
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:27.120
I think the tilt just increased a few degrees.
00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:29.679
Man, this place is creepy as fudge.
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:32.720
Yeah, but but come on, guys, that's all we could afford this year, alright?
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:33.759
We'll make it work.
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:38.720
Uh, is it just me or does it feel like this house is building energy?
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:42.960
Dude, I don't know, but I feel like that painting over there is judging me right now.
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:43.919
Alright, alright.
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:46.879
Before the house submits its own nominations, let's begin.
00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:53.759
Presenting the award for Raddest Animated TV show episode, it's Jerry D and Chad Young.
00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:05.279
Animated Christmas episodes hit different.
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:12.399
Pajamas, cereal, the feeling that a cartoon could teach you a moral lesson and also sell you a toy with eight accessories.
00:10:12.799 --> 00:10:16.240
Sometimes the moral lesson is never trust a cube.
00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:25.919
The nominees for Raddist Animated TV show episode are From the Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers, Marshmallow Trees, Kevin Williams.
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:33.039
But I remember the thermos set was really well, the lunchbox was weird because it came with a little thermos, like all the Aladdin lunchboxes do.
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:55.840
But the artwork on the thermos was taken from like a very specific episode where they were disguising themselves as smugglers or bandits or something, so they had these like uh ponchos on over their ranger uniforms with like these big circles in the stomach of them, and so Fox and Nico were in that costume, and then uh the other two were in like actual spacesuits.
00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:57.600
Uh, I think from the same episode.
00:10:57.919 --> 00:11:03.200
From Lupan the Third, Part 2, The Slight Before Christmas in Christmas Etiphany's, Robbie Sherman.
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:03.440
Yeah.
00:11:03.840 --> 00:11:06.159
This is a step-up from Wacky Race's.
00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:06.879
Oh, big time.
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:14.240
Like, there's a certain realism to this, you know, lived in Baldy that shows that you're in the real world.
00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:15.600
That feels really good.
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:22.960
I think that's part of the reason why I started to latch on to Lupon over the last five, six years, seven maybe.
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:23.519
Yeah.
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:25.759
I think that's when I really started getting into it.
00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:33.039
We started getting stuff popping up on Tubi and Pluto as well, so that helped uh facilitate the Lupon ergas.
00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:38.559
From Rubik the Amazing Cube, Rubik's First Christmas, Adam Pope and William Bruce West.
00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:41.039
Ow, okay.
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:47.600
Well, because it's like 1983-1984, I want to go shopping because I want to go to the toy aisle.
00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:50.879
So yeah, I want to go shopping with them back in the day.
00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:52.720
Alright, I like that.
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:57.759
Hmm, this was tough because none of those options are actually in this episode.
00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:02.320
Like the like, I mean, it's like, do you want to beat a pinata?
00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:04.960
Do you want to sing with Minudo?
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:09.039
Do you um an eagle?
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:11.679
Yeah, yeah, I I'm with Adam on this one.
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:13.440
I I wanna go shopping, you know?
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:16.799
I'll I'll bring$20 and buy the entire aisle.
00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:20.639
From Laser Tag Academy, the Olonga story, Kevin Williams.
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:23.840
We had a couple of the, I don't know what you call them, like bandoliers.
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:25.200
It was kind of like a like a chest.
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:27.360
It wasn't the full vest, but it was like a chest harness.
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:28.080
Oh, right, right.
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:34.000
And then we had uh one of the bases, uh, which was really cool.
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:42.960
So uh it was like this tripod thing that sat on the ground with a dome, and it had a bunch of buttons on it, and you could set different modes, and it would just fire at you.
00:12:43.279 --> 00:12:46.960
And from DuckTale's Ducky Horror Picture Show, Joe Martinez.
00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:50.799
And uh he's gonna get the uh uh what is that uh Mr.
00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:52.480
Wolf's monster convention.
00:12:52.559 --> 00:13:01.919
But I was laughing when he tells the kids that uh there's no such thing as monsters, because in the episodes, I mean, this is 64 episodes in, right?
00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:05.519
There's plenty of previous episodes where he's fighting monsters.
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:16.639
And the winner is Joe Martinez for DuckTales Ducky Horror Picture Show.
00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:20.320
This is Joe Martinez's first win tonight.
00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:23.840
What is up, Totly Rad Christmas fans?
00:13:23.919 --> 00:13:33.120
This is Joe Martinez from the Now Watch This podcast, here to accept my award for the Radus Animated TV show for our DuckTales episode.
00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:44.399
Such a pleasure to be on Totally Rad again and to bring this episode to Jerry's attention and then to be able to do the episode with Jerry is just the chef's kiss.
00:13:44.639 --> 00:13:45.679
Thank you again, Jerry.
00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:51.759
Thank you again, Totally Rad Christmas fans, and I'll be back for my other Raddies.
00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:02.799
Cool.
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:07.200
Well, I guess we got our first Heckler, and uh it seems like he's from 1893 or something.
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:13.600
Presenting the award for Radis Music episode, it's Tom Crow and Mike Westball.
00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:21.600
Music is a huge facet of Christmas.
00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:28.559
It can lift you up, it can bring back memories, and remind you of the reason for the season.
00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:36.159
Yeah, that too.
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:48.559
The nominees for Radith Music episode are from Don Fogelberg, same old Lang sign, Chad and Laura Wanzick.
00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:59.679
But I remember um when Chad and I really connected over this song, um, and kind of just discovering it and realizing how funny we thought it was.
00:14:59.919 --> 00:15:00.240
Exactly.
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:06.080
Yeah, we had a uh he wasn't on my radar at all until until we we kind of heard it.
00:15:06.159 --> 00:15:10.240
I mean, I remember hearing it over the years, it just never it never caught my interest at all.
00:15:10.320 --> 00:15:12.159
I like, oh yeah, that's nothing I care about.
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:16.399
From Jeff Lorber, God Rest the House, Steven Beach.
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:22.240
And the drums, it reminded me very much of Art of Noise or Bon the Bass.
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:26.559
And I'm not at all surprised that it went into making computer game music.
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:37.360
Um he's got real skill in in programming uh everything, and putting it all together, but the the real jazz element is the piano.
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:43.440
From Weird Owl, Christmas at Ground Zero, Tim Bab, and Mike Westfall.
00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:48.159
And the chipper way with which it's said is so it's time to face your final destiny.
00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:49.759
That's right.
00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:59.440
Because it's like it's it's definitely close enough to Winter Wonderland that you recognize the melody, but like far away enough that it's not an actual parody.
00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:02.559
Like it's it's in that lovely middle ground.
00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:08.639
From 22 volt heavy Christmas, Dwayne Bailey and Michael Wheeler.
00:16:08.879 --> 00:16:15.840
Christmas Day for me is the start of it being over and next week in the blue seed in a little bit, whereas Christmas Eve is like it's all about Christmas Eve to me.
00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:18.879
Whereas Christmas Day is it's it's its own thing.
00:16:19.039 --> 00:16:19.279
Yeah.
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:21.919
So yeah, I don't want to say that's what he's trying to catch here.
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:22.639
Yeah.
00:16:23.120 --> 00:16:30.960
When I was growing up, we our Christmas Eves were just um we would do like a buffet from like Swiss Colony and stuff like that, and watch a lot of Christmas programs.
00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:34.559
And from Christmas Songs by the Cure, Michael May.
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:38.240
Well, I did see them in concert, so that's probably it, yeah.
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:40.320
During uh the Wish tour.
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:40.879
Okay.
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:43.600
Um and uh and there was we had a big group of us going.
00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:49.200
So my my baby brother, who I said, you know, I mentioned he was a much bigger cure fan than I am.
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:49.519
Right.
00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:54.320
Uh but he was there, and uh his sort of girlfriend at the time was there.
00:16:54.559 --> 00:16:56.480
My dad actually went with us.
00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:01.600
Um, so we just had a really cool big group that went, and uh, it was a great show.
00:17:01.840 --> 00:17:11.440
And the winner is it's Tim Bab and me for Weird Al Christmas at Crown Zero.
00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:16.960
This is Tim Bab, Mike Westfall, and King of Cody's first win tonight.
00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:19.759
Oh, this is super unexpected.
00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:29.599
I want to thank Weird Al for combining the joy of holiday music with the horrors of nuclear war.
00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:43.680
I want to thank whoever that guy was in Nintendo Power who did a whole video of the song in Mario Paint and recorded it and sent it in and made me aware of it, and it's amazing.
00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:45.599
Uh singer, thank you.
00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:47.599
Thank you for this award.
00:17:47.759 --> 00:17:53.039
I gotta admit, just having the excuse to talk about Weird Al for a whole podcast was a win for me.
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:54.559
This is like a double win.
00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:56.559
But this episode was the bomb.
00:17:57.039 --> 00:17:58.640
Like the bomb for Christmas.
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:31.359
I would like to give things to Weird Al Yang for the Weird Al Yang.
00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:35.519
And um to musical Sally Fields.
00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:36.559
You like me.
00:18:36.720 --> 00:18:37.920
You really like me.
00:18:56.799 --> 00:18:57.839
Did you hear that?
00:18:58.079 --> 00:19:00.000
I don't think that was our band.
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:02.720
I think it was the house or something, man.
00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:05.680
If it requests an encore, I'm out.
00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:08.640
I don't think the house will let us.
00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:10.240
Oh crap.
00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:16.880
Totally read.
00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:25.039
Presenting the award for Raddest episode featuring Ozzie Osborne and Gene Simmons, it's CJ Belange and Chad Young.
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:34.559
This category is so specific, it feels like the Academy Treasurer lost a bit.
00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:36.880
To a class five spooker.
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:40.000
Or record executive from 1986.
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:42.319
Honestly, same age.
00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:49.440
This is the only award where bat-related incidents and excessive eyeliner are both considered performance metrics.
00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:52.640
And somehow still not the weirdest thing we've seen tonight.
00:19:52.880 --> 00:19:54.079
Trust me, give it time.
00:19:54.319 --> 00:19:55.599
No, please don't.
00:19:56.240 --> 00:20:03.920
The nominees for Raddest Episode featuring Ozzie Osborne and Gene Simmons are Chad Young and Jeremy Phelps for Trick or Treat.
00:20:05.759 --> 00:20:08.160
There's a certain DJ that he was trying to emulate.
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:11.599
Was he trying to be Wolfman Jack?
00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:13.680
Apparently he was a big fan of his.
00:20:14.400 --> 00:20:17.039
Oh, I can I I can I can totally see that.
00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:23.519
I didn't see how he he said that because watching it, he didn't come across like Wolfman Jack at all.
00:20:24.079 --> 00:20:28.319
But you know, that's it's you know Wolfman Jack via Gene Simmons, right?
00:20:29.039 --> 00:20:33.839
It's kind of when he's on the air, which is not admittedly not that long.
00:20:34.319 --> 00:20:38.400
And Dwayne Bailey and Matt Wheeler for Headbanger's Christmas.
00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:45.200
Even when the Black Saber stuff, I just like Iron Man and whatnot, I just just didn't ring with it.
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:48.240
So I always skipped it or never made an effort to go and find it.
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:49.279
Oh, I gotcha.
00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:50.480
Yeah, I don't know what it is.
00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:55.200
Yeah, I only listen to a few songs in here and there, but Crazy Train maybe and don't work.
00:20:55.599 --> 00:20:56.559
Yeah, Crazy Train.
00:20:56.720 --> 00:21:04.720
And the winner is Chad Young and Jeremy Phelps for Trigger Treat.
00:21:07.519 --> 00:21:11.839
This is Chad Young and Jeremy Phelps' first win tonight.
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:21.519
Hey, it's Santa Jeremy, and I want to thank everybody for voting for the Trigger-Treat episode as the raddest episode featuring Ozzie Osborne and Gene Simmons.
00:21:21.839 --> 00:21:24.960
I also want to thank Chad for his expertise on the movie.
00:21:25.119 --> 00:21:36.240
And I definitely need to give a shout-out to Ozzie and Gene, who would have thought that becoming a KISS fan almost 50 years ago would lead to me winning an award for a Christmas podcast.
00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:38.319
That's pretty rad.
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:43.359
Wait.
00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:47.680
I could have sworn I saw the ghost of Sammy Kerr in the audience.
00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:53.839
But now he's gone, and he died a long time ago.
00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:56.880
Oh let's see.
00:21:58.000 --> 00:21:59.599
Now this house has taste.
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:05.200
Hell yeah, I think it just reached into people's radios and heard them while they were listening.
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:17.119
Presenting the award for Rattest Movie Score and Soundtrack episode, it's Mike Westfall and Jerry D.
00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:32.400
Whoa, listen to that eerie organ music.
00:22:32.640 --> 00:22:35.839
It's actually a great segue for our next category.
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:38.720
A good score makes a movie timeless.
00:22:38.880 --> 00:22:44.079
A great score makes you feel like you're being chased through a mall by something with glowing eyes.
00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:48.559
Or like you just turn the corner and immediately regret all your life choices.
00:22:49.279 --> 00:22:50.000
Exactly.
00:22:50.240 --> 00:22:56.079
A great score doesn't just set the mood, it tells your brain you are no longer safe.
00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:02.000
And sometimes it's literally just Jerry Goldsmith doing orchestrational and compositional wizardry.
00:23:02.799 --> 00:23:07.200
Yeah, like here's a whimsical Christmas tune, and now it's terror.
00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:16.240
The nominees for Radis Movie Score and Soundtrack episode are From Gremlins, the score and soundtrack, Kevin Williams.
00:23:16.480 --> 00:23:19.599
I had to look it up because like the Peter Gabriel song was written for the movie.
00:23:20.160 --> 00:23:21.359
It was written for the movie, yeah.
00:23:21.680 --> 00:23:24.880
Couldn't find anything where Mega Madness was written for the movie.
00:23:24.960 --> 00:23:32.960
It just like not only thematic for the scene, but just lyrics, like you said, just kinda fit pretty well.
00:23:33.119 --> 00:23:38.960
You know, they're tearing apart a bar, they're all drinking, they're uh, like I said, completely uh manic.
00:23:39.200 --> 00:23:42.880
Um it just, you know, fit fits with the lyrics uh all the way through.
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:47.920
From Santa Claus the movie, the score and soundtrack, Robert Nicholas.
00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:57.279
What really makes it feel a little more classical than a lot of other uh Santa Claus movies is the fact that its music uh really plays a key role here.
00:23:57.440 --> 00:24:01.440
Uh that being, of course, composed by the late great Henry Mancini.
00:24:01.680 --> 00:24:03.839
Henry Mancini, yeah, yeah.
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:09.279
And and something about this just feels much more sweeping and orchestral.
00:24:09.359 --> 00:24:17.839
In fact, I I'll I'll I'm probably gonna make this comparison a couple of times here, but there's kind of a John Williams feel with a lot of the stuff.
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:26.880
And the winner is Kevin Williams for Gremlins, the score and soundtrack.
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:31.920
This is Kevin Williams' first win tonight.
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:37.680
Hey, neat trick, Jerry.
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:41.039
You'll have to show me how you got that award to float over here all by itself.
00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:44.400
Raddest movie score or soundtrack episode.
00:24:44.640 --> 00:24:45.039
Wow.
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:48.480
First off, thank you, Jerry, and thank you, Voting Committee.
00:24:49.039 --> 00:24:54.720
I'm actually shocked that anyone would vote for anything gremlins related after all the chaos they caused here a couple of years ago.
00:24:55.119 --> 00:24:57.119
How quickly we all forget.
00:24:57.680 --> 00:25:01.119
Second, Jerry is way more deserving of this award than I am.
00:25:01.599 --> 00:25:06.640
He did all the heavy lifting on that episode, dissecting Jerry Goldsmith's score while I just tried to keep up.
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:08.319
This one should go to you, buddy.
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:12.319
And hey, it uh looks like it's floating your direction.
00:25:12.799 --> 00:25:15.440
Alright then, I guess that's my cue.
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:16.640
Thank you.
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:27.119
Oh, okay.
00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:29.440
Those bells felt a little personal.
00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:33.200
Yeah, that was less festive and more you've made a mistake.
00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:35.440
Announce with dignity.
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:36.799
Okay, that's fine.
00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:38.319
I mean, that's that's f that's fine.
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:39.920
That's that's fine, that's fine, right?
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:44.240
Uh well, I'll go get some snacks from the green room backstage during this commercial break.
00:25:44.559 --> 00:25:48.160
Hey, hey, if the snacks start humming, don't eat them.
00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:54.000
The sixth annual Totally Rad Christmas Awards will be back after these messages.
00:26:05.119 --> 00:26:07.200
Did that chandelier just spin?
00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:09.039
Uh yeah.
00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:11.519
I'm pretty sure it just spun.
00:26:12.160 --> 00:26:13.599
You know what this reminds me of?
00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:15.359
Uh don't say Vigo.
00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:16.960
Not Vigo.
00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:18.160
Uh good.
00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:21.599
This feels more like a boogeyman episode of the real Ghostbusters.
00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:25.119
Oh man, the Boogeyman is way more terrifying.
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:26.000
Right?
00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:30.160
Huge nose, glowing eyes, stealing children's nightmares.
00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:33.039
Peak cartoon villain design.
00:26:35.200 --> 00:26:35.519
Okay.
00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:37.680
Did that table just move?
00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:40.640
That might be more than just the boogeyman.
00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:42.400
Maybe it's Sam Haym.
00:26:42.960 --> 00:26:45.599
No, Sam Haim only shows up on Halloween.
00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:46.880
That's true.
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:49.200
Uh, that could be the Sandman.
00:26:49.839 --> 00:26:52.640
You think the Sandman is haunting the snack table?
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:53.839
I don't know, man.
00:26:53.920 --> 00:26:57.519
I'm just saying we're getting closer to g uh Gozer territory here.
00:26:57.839 --> 00:26:59.519
Hey guys, just grabbing snacks.
00:26:59.599 --> 00:27:01.440
Um, are there any pizza rolls left?
00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:06.480
Uh don't know, but there are giggle cookies and holiday chocolates.
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:08.079
Ooh, and magic middles?
00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:10.000
Oh man, those things are delicious.
00:27:10.319 --> 00:27:12.799
Jerry, I think something paranormal is happening.
00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:15.039
Yeah, the furniture keeps moving.
00:27:15.359 --> 00:27:16.160
Oh, that?
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:18.079
Oh, it's probably just a house.
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:20.000
The house?
00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:21.920
Yeah, it happens sometimes.
00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:28.400
Uh the punch bowl bubbled.
00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:30.400
Uh should we be concerned?
00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:31.279
Nah.
00:27:32.079 --> 00:27:35.039
Now if the walls start bleeding pink slime, then you're worried.
00:27:35.440 --> 00:27:37.119
That's oddly specific.
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:38.079
Uh no, no.
00:27:38.160 --> 00:27:40.160
Just just something off the top of my head, I promise.
00:27:40.319 --> 00:27:42.240
Uh look, if there's a steady paycheck in it.
00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:44.640
You'll believe anything.
00:27:45.119 --> 00:27:46.079
Exactly.
00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:47.839
Alright, enjoy the show.
00:27:48.000 --> 00:27:50.160
Pay no attention to the weirdness around.
00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:52.319
The punch ball was rotating.
00:27:52.799 --> 00:27:54.240
Ready to believe you.
00:27:54.640 --> 00:27:57.440
Yeah, I'm still not drinking that punch.
00:27:58.720 --> 00:27:59.680
Totally read.
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:04.799
Presenting the award for Radus Bonus episode, it's Jerry D and Tom Crow.
00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:16.000
Bonus episodes.
00:28:16.160 --> 00:28:20.960
Extra content, extra laughs, extra paperwork when the Academy forgets to log them.
00:28:21.599 --> 00:28:26.799
And sometimes, extra confusion about why they qualify for anything at all.
00:28:27.119 --> 00:28:27.519
Right.
00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:31.279
These are the episodes where the rules politely step aside and say, you know what?
00:28:31.519 --> 00:28:32.240
Go nuts.
00:28:32.640 --> 00:28:38.480
Most of these nominees have little to do with the 80s, so naturally they're up for awards.
00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:40.559
But that's the beauty of the Raddies.
00:28:40.640 --> 00:28:42.480
If it exists, it's eligible.
00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:45.680
And if it doesn't exist, we'll probably cover it anyway.
00:28:46.079 --> 00:28:47.359
The nominees, true.
00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:55.359
The nominees for Raddis Bonus episode are Anthony Caruso and Jeremy Phelps for a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving.
00:28:55.920 --> 00:29:04.160
Watching specials on CBS in the 70s and 80s was so cool because you'd have like the little spinning logo drumbeat and all that.
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:06.559
That was just that was part of the holiday experience.
00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:09.839
Part of Charlie Brown and the Dolly Madison commercials.
00:29:10.799 --> 00:29:12.640
You get the zingers and all that.
00:29:13.119 --> 00:29:22.160
That's why I hate now that it's like Apple exclusive because something special about watching it on TV during prime time with all the commercials.
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:28.240
And like even the social media age, it's like a community experience because you see people watching oh Charlie Brown Christmas.
00:29:28.319 --> 00:29:31.839
Like people would be checking in or writing on Twitter they're watching it and would be trending.
00:29:32.000 --> 00:29:35.839
I'm like, you don't get that now because I think you can watch any time on Apple.
00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:40.400
Alonso Duralde for Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas, second edition.
00:29:40.799 --> 00:29:45.920
So for me as a kid, Christmas meant everybody came home, you know, because they were off to college or whatever.
00:29:46.079 --> 00:29:53.119
And so, you know, and my parents always put on a very big, you know, the food and the gifts and the tree and the whole thing.
00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:55.680
So I've I've always been somebody who loves Christmas.
00:29:55.839 --> 00:30:11.039
And when I started working as a journalist, invariably November, December would roll around, and some editor would be like, come up with a list of like Christmas movies that people don't think of as Christmas movies, or Christmas horror movies, or that kind of thing.
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:12.079
Jeremy P.
00:30:12.240 --> 00:30:15.200
Helps for North Pole General Store.
00:30:15.599 --> 00:30:17.759
So I've come up with a couple rock and roll designs.
00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:21.279
I got that one, I've got the uh, or those two.
00:30:21.599 --> 00:30:28.000
I based one off of uh Iron Man Run to the Hills, except that it's Run for the Slate, Fly Through the Night.
00:30:28.160 --> 00:30:28.480
Right.
00:30:28.799 --> 00:30:30.880
And then you know I decided what else can I go?
00:30:30.960 --> 00:30:38.880
So I got shirts based off of movies and like what I call my signature shirt is a picture.
00:30:38.960 --> 00:30:47.039
It's a Santa in a snow globe, and it says Believe in a scene, based off of uh the Santa Claus from 1994, my favorite Christmas movie.
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:50.319
And Anthony Carusso and Jeremy P.
00:30:50.480 --> 00:30:54.000
Helps for It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown.
00:30:54.319 --> 00:30:59.519
Because she's not normally dumb, but she's definitely ignorant or naive in this situation.
00:30:59.680 --> 00:31:03.839
Yeah, she's usually the smartest one out of all the one.
00:31:04.079 --> 00:31:06.880
Right, yes, especially compared to Pepper and Patty, though.
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:08.960
She's like the Velma of the gang, right?
00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:10.319
A little bit, you know, yeah.
00:31:10.640 --> 00:31:18.240
Or uh for more modern kids out there, uh Hey Arnold, they're like Helga and Phoebe on Hey Arnold.
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:19.359
Oh, yeah.
00:31:19.599 --> 00:31:29.200
And the winner is Anthony Caruso and Jeremy Phelps for Charlie Brown Thanksgiving.
00:31:29.599 --> 00:31:32.400
This is Anthony Caruso's first win tonight.
00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:35.279
This is Jeremy Phelps' second win tonight.
00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:42.160
Wow, uh I'm I'm so glad and honored to be awarded this award.
00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:44.079
Uh Jerry, I want to thank you.
00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:46.160
I want to thank the Raddy Academy.
00:31:46.400 --> 00:31:52.720
Um I want to thank the entire peanuts game gang except for Pepper and Patty.
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:55.759
You're the reason the special is almost unwatchable.
00:31:56.880 --> 00:32:01.279
I dedicate this to everyone but you, but especially Woodstock's dead family member.
00:32:01.359 --> 00:32:02.720
He cannibalizes at the end.
00:32:02.880 --> 00:32:03.440
Thank you.
00:32:03.759 --> 00:32:04.960
Merry Christmas.
00:32:11.680 --> 00:32:15.759
Hey, it's Santa Jeremy, and I can't believe I've won another ratty.
00:32:15.839 --> 00:32:17.440
That is pretty tubular.
00:32:17.599 --> 00:32:21.519
And it's such an honor this time to share the award with Anthony Caruso.
00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:27.680
Anytime I get to talk to him and Jerry about Charlie Brown, oh man, that is a guaranteed good time.
00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:32.000
Especially when Anthony Fawn's all over Peppermint Patty.
00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:41.200
We all know, we all know that she's really his favorite character in any kind of media.
00:32:58.640 --> 00:33:01.279
Uh and I don't think it's a part of the program.
00:33:01.839 --> 00:33:03.200
Cool, cool, cool, cool.
00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:08.480
Um is it coming from the ceiling above us?
00:33:09.200 --> 00:33:11.519
I mean, that's famously where organs are kept, right?
00:33:11.759 --> 00:33:13.279
Uh we're just gonna keep moving here.
00:33:14.240 --> 00:33:19.440
Presenting the award for Radis' new guest, it's Chad Young and CJ Bell and Jay.
00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:34.480
New guests bring new energy and new liability, but what a ride.
00:33:34.720 --> 00:33:38.559
Yeah, sometimes you get two-hour episodes like when William Bruce West and I are on.
00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:41.759
And sometimes you get award-winning episodes like when I'm on.
00:33:41.920 --> 00:33:42.720
Just saying.
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:49.359
The nominees for Radis New Guests are from Babar and Father Christmas, Michael May.
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:51.759
No, not so much.
00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:56.480
I was trying to think what some of the other animals are because we don't really get a ton of them.
00:33:56.559 --> 00:33:59.759
Like like if we saw tigers, that was indicate Asia, right?
00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:01.440
But I don't think we do see that.
00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:08.320
Um, I mean, not in this episode for sure, but I'm trying to think back to my other earlier Babar experiences.
00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:09.280
I don't know.
00:34:09.519 --> 00:34:18.000
Yeah, I feel like it's gotta be Africa, but I just that's from Dan Fogelberg, same old Lang Zime, Laura wants it.
00:34:18.239 --> 00:34:27.840
Well, it also could be tears of awkwardness because he's touched her on her sleeve, she's been surprised to recognize him, and we don't know how she felt when she did recognize him, right?
00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:29.920
And then she's dropping a purse.
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:32.239
So that's a lot of awkwardness in one moment.
00:34:32.480 --> 00:34:35.840
And from Family Ties, Miracle in Columbus, Jeff Fox.
00:34:36.239 --> 00:34:41.440
That actually, I thought of that too, and I was gonna ask, like, is that uh like do you get malls that big in Columbus?
00:34:41.519 --> 00:34:41.920
I don't know.
00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:42.400
I don't know.
00:34:42.480 --> 00:34:44.639
I've never been, but I don't think so.
00:34:44.800 --> 00:34:46.719
I don't I wouldn't think so either.
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:48.480
I think it was just, you know, we got these two.
00:34:48.800 --> 00:34:49.519
Maybe just shifts.
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:51.280
Yeah, different shifts, maybe?
00:34:51.360 --> 00:34:56.719
Or uh I I tried to rationalize it and I thought you can get two, but you can write two off easily.
00:34:56.800 --> 00:35:03.280
But four, I was like, that's a little harder, but from Small Wonder, here today, gone tomorrow, Caleb Cody.
00:35:03.679 --> 00:35:04.960
I think I threw up like twice.
00:35:07.760 --> 00:35:08.960
And the bank ladies.
00:35:09.679 --> 00:35:13.039
The bank ladies says, I'd be bad too if I was dead.
00:35:14.400 --> 00:35:14.719
Okay.
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:18.480
Yeah, that's that was a bad line.
00:35:18.639 --> 00:35:19.280
Yeah.
00:35:20.159 --> 00:35:23.360
And then and then he goes, See, I'm alive.
00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:26.079
Just starts breathing nice.
00:35:26.880 --> 00:35:29.519
From the facts of life, the Christmas show.
00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:30.639
Troy.
00:35:30.800 --> 00:35:31.679
Wait, that's it?
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:32.480
Just Troy?
00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:33.039
Alright.
00:35:33.199 --> 00:35:34.239
Alright, Troy.
00:35:34.559 --> 00:35:35.599
And it was a lot of fun.
00:35:35.679 --> 00:35:47.519
It it was it was like you said, it was very nostalgic to look back, and uh, you know, Natalie in in one of the first scenes, she's it shows her in the bedroom and she's talking with Tootie, and she's got those like old school Nike running shoes on.
00:35:47.920 --> 00:35:49.840
I'm like, I totally hatched for those.
00:35:50.079 --> 00:35:57.280
So it's actually stuff that I run across like all the time, but watching it on a TV show like that, just it just brings back all kinds of stuff for you.
00:35:57.440 --> 00:35:58.159
It's really cool.
00:35:58.480 --> 00:36:01.519
From Headbangers Christmas, Matt Wheeler.
00:36:01.760 --> 00:36:06.480
Yeah, most of the 80s I spent living in Germany is uh we had one American TV channel.
00:36:06.719 --> 00:36:09.440
That was in, they didn't play any music whatsoever.
00:36:10.480 --> 00:36:11.920
I gotcha, I gotcha.
00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:20.639
And the winner is Laura Wansick, Dan Hultenberg in Old Jones.
00:36:21.599 --> 00:36:24.480
This is Laura Wansick's first win tonight.
00:36:25.840 --> 00:36:27.920
I've won a major award.
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:33.519
This is the leg lamp of Christmas podcast guest awards.
00:36:34.159 --> 00:36:35.679
Thank you to my public.
00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:37.440
Thank you to Jerry.
00:36:37.840 --> 00:36:41.920
Thank you to the internet and podcasts for existing.
00:36:42.400 --> 00:36:45.519
Thank you to God and Mother Earth.
00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:54.159
And thank you to Dan Fogelberg for writing such an amazing song and creating content for a really fun episode.
00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:11.119
This poem to man's populity.
00:37:12.800 --> 00:37:17.920
That orchard just off, then I think it said something.
00:37:18.159 --> 00:37:20.079
Oh Jesus God, notes.
00:37:20.719 --> 00:37:25.360
Presenting the award for Raddest Movie Episode, it's Mike Westfall.
00:37:34.880 --> 00:37:41.679
From squirrels in the tree to guns that shoot your eye out, Christmas movies are the holiday fireplace for the soul.
00:37:42.159 --> 00:37:43.599
Unless it's a slasher.
00:37:44.079 --> 00:37:48.079
Then it's the holiday fireplace for the soul, and the soul is sprinting.
00:37:48.559 --> 00:37:55.039
The nominees for Rattest Movie Episode are Jeremy Phelps for Christmas Eve.
00:37:55.280 --> 00:38:06.480
Coffee and money in the middle of the night, which this also infuriates her son, Andrew, because it's New York City in the 80s, and you shouldn't be walking around in the dark in New York City in the 80s.
00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:07.280
That's right.
00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:11.199
There's a reason it was called Hell's Kitchen, and Daredevil had to protect it, right?
00:38:11.679 --> 00:38:15.199
Time Square used to be a pretty scary place back in the day, ever too.
00:38:15.599 --> 00:38:16.079
Well, it was.
00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:18.559
I've only been there in 2008.
00:38:18.639 --> 00:38:22.320
It was a lot nicer, so Jeff and Jay for Bloodbeat.
00:38:22.559 --> 00:38:25.599
It's either a picture of herself or a picture of the mom as a child.
00:38:26.159 --> 00:38:30.559
A picture of the mom's sister, whose spirit is inhabiting the samurai armor.
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:43.119
Now, the only reason I know that is because I contacted uh Jay Bauman because Red Letter Media did a review of this movie on a rewind, and he actually got in contact with the director and asked him questions.
00:38:43.280 --> 00:38:50.719
So he has a transcript from that interview, and he explains lore backstory to the movie that is nowhere to be found in the actual movie itself.
00:38:51.039 --> 00:38:52.159
That's not in the movie.
00:38:52.559 --> 00:38:56.559
Yes, that's the mom's sister as a child who died in an accident.
00:38:56.880 --> 00:38:59.760
Matt Spaulding and Jeremy Phelps for Prancer.
00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:02.719
Since Johnny Galecki was in this movie.
00:39:03.519 --> 00:39:04.239
Yeah, he was.
00:39:04.480 --> 00:39:06.800
Yeah, he was uh Quinn.
00:39:07.519 --> 00:39:10.719
He played a scene He had the scene in the beginning when they were in the classroom.
00:39:10.880 --> 00:39:13.920
And he showed up when all the kids showed up in the barn.
00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:14.960
Oh, okay.
00:39:15.280 --> 00:39:21.119
Can I talk about one other uh member who was uncredited, but is very, very important?
00:39:21.599 --> 00:39:23.039
Prancer Welker.
00:39:23.440 --> 00:39:23.760
Oh.
00:39:24.239 --> 00:39:24.719
Yeah.
00:39:25.039 --> 00:39:27.039
The voice effects of Prancer.
00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:31.519
Ron Hogan and Jay Skipworth don't open till Christmas.
00:39:31.760 --> 00:39:34.239
The BBC, the stolen BBC stock footage.
00:39:34.559 --> 00:39:35.920
That's totally what it was, of course.
00:39:36.960 --> 00:39:37.840
That's probably not stolen.
00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:39.199
They probably paid taxes for it.
00:39:39.280 --> 00:39:40.079
They own part of that.
00:39:40.320 --> 00:39:43.039
No, it they didn't even buy the stock footage.
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:48.960
They just sent a guy down there with the camera to take that one 15-second clip of the rotating sign.
00:39:49.119 --> 00:39:58.000
Because that sign is just like at least 15 years ago or whenever it was on, went there there's like signage out there.
00:39:58.159 --> 00:39:59.440
Like you can just see it from the street.
00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:04.559
They just went some gross early morning and were like, let's get this footage before anyone wakes up.
00:40:04.880 --> 00:40:05.679
Before anybody's here.
00:40:05.760 --> 00:40:06.000
Yep.
00:40:06.079 --> 00:40:06.320
Yep.
00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:08.800
Movie's running short, throw it in again.
00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:09.280
You know?
00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:09.599
Yeah.
00:40:09.760 --> 00:40:11.280
Just chop it in a few more times.
00:40:11.599 --> 00:40:12.880
Every time we had to cut back.
00:40:12.960 --> 00:40:17.840
You know, because otherwise the the scene director would have been like, why are these two guys just hanging out at home?
00:40:18.000 --> 00:40:19.440
And the winner is.
00:40:22.880 --> 00:40:25.119
Matt Spaulding and Jeremy Phelps.
00:40:27.360 --> 00:40:30.079
This is Matt Spaulding's first win tonight.
00:40:30.239 --> 00:40:33.440
This is Jeremy Phelps' third win tonight.
00:40:36.880 --> 00:40:38.400
Hey, it's Santa Jeremy.
00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:39.119
Can you believe it?
00:40:39.199 --> 00:40:40.880
I've won a third ratty.
00:40:41.039 --> 00:40:42.239
This is such an honor.
00:40:42.480 --> 00:40:46.559
And believe me, when I tell you, it was a lot of work to make this episode.
00:40:46.960 --> 00:40:48.159
But man, it was worth it.
00:40:48.320 --> 00:40:56.239
I mean, how often does Santa get to sit around with Santa and talk about movies about a reindeer?
00:40:56.480 --> 00:41:01.199
And not just any reindeer, but Prancer, himself, hers as a self.
00:41:01.519 --> 00:41:02.159
Oh, whatever.
00:41:02.320 --> 00:41:04.800
If you haven't seen this movie, check it out.
00:41:05.280 --> 00:41:10.239
It has everything: reindeer, apples, crazy old 80s.
00:41:10.320 --> 00:41:13.119
I mean, everything you need in a classic Christmas movie.
00:41:14.000 --> 00:41:15.519
Hello, it's me, Santa Claus.
00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:18.079
Thank you.
00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:22.800
Yes, thank you, and I love you all too.
00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:33.039
If you didn't notice on his way up to the stage, Matt Spaulding started unfortunately to be chased by what appears to be a spectral dog.
00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:35.599
I bet it's because he's a mail carrier.
00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:41.519
In any case, I'll accept this award on his behalf since he's one of the best and finest of my ambassadors.
00:41:42.079 --> 00:41:43.920
If you ever need, call him up.
00:41:44.400 --> 00:41:45.920
He's truly phenomenal.
00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:49.039
And even I hope to live up to the standard he sets.
00:41:49.599 --> 00:41:52.079
I'm sure he'd want to thank you all for this lovely award.
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:54.000
God bless a Merry Christmas.
00:42:00.559 --> 00:42:02.239
Film should be silent.
00:42:02.559 --> 00:42:03.679
Did did you hear that?
00:42:03.760 --> 00:42:08.639
I mean, that's not even That painting sounds like it's from the era of silent film.
00:42:08.960 --> 00:42:10.000
Come on, painting.
00:42:10.079 --> 00:42:11.199
We've moved past that.
00:42:11.519 --> 00:42:12.480
I haven't.
00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:13.440
Oh man.
00:42:13.599 --> 00:42:15.679
The award envelopes are flying around now.
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:17.199
I guess we better check it out.
00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:19.599
Everybody take some walkie-talkies.
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:26.960
Presenting the award for Radist Halloween episode, it's CJ Bellinger and Tom Crow.
00:42:33.519 --> 00:42:38.000
Is it possible we're talking about Halloween episodes during a Christmas award show?
00:42:38.480 --> 00:42:43.039
Yeah, and it's this beautiful reminder that the holiday season is a kind of spectrum.
00:42:43.440 --> 00:42:44.880
Kind of like the one you're on.
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:48.320
A very confusing candied eggnog spectrum.
00:42:48.880 --> 00:42:52.880
Yeah, one week we're carving pumpkins and the next week we're decorating our trees.
00:42:53.199 --> 00:42:57.360
And somehow both involve questionable life choices and theme snacks.
00:42:57.679 --> 00:42:59.360
And a surprising amount of ghosts.
00:42:59.679 --> 00:43:00.000
Yeah.
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:02.159
That part's hitting a little close tonight.
00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:04.000
Let's remain festive.
00:43:04.320 --> 00:43:07.199
Those Burrmonths really hit differently, don't they?
00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:09.519
They do indeed.
00:43:10.079 --> 00:43:16.320
The nominees for Radist Halloween episode R from Superboy, Young Dracula, CM Chuck.
00:43:16.559 --> 00:43:22.159
But but also initially my thing was like, oh, he's doing something kind of heroic here.
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:33.760
Like that's just uh, you know, if this if if I was watching a uh Superboy show of the week, I would have assumed that this was the villain of the of the day, right?
00:43:33.920 --> 00:43:40.320
Oh, big so to see him do something kind of counterintuitive to villainy is like what's going on here, you know what I mean?
00:43:40.400 --> 00:43:48.880
So and then we kind of get the the when he sees the clerk, you know, he's bleeding a little bit from the head, he gets that uh gets that wild look in his eyes, you know what I mean?
00:43:48.960 --> 00:43:52.079
He's like, Oh man, that looks like a snack right there.
00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:56.960
From Laser Tag Academy, the Olonga story, Kevin Williams.
00:43:57.199 --> 00:44:00.639
When you were talking earlier about uh the depth of the Tie-in.
00:44:00.960 --> 00:44:10.960
So, like you said, in the in the lore of the show, uh, Beth, ancestor of Jamie, created the Starlight or created you know the spawned laser tag.
00:44:11.360 --> 00:44:11.440
Right.
00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:20.480
Or there were these little pack-ins uh that came with the toys that had the characters from the series that like talked about it.
00:44:20.719 --> 00:44:35.360
And they go like a step deeper there, and they say that, you know, this laser tag toy that you have, the you know, the sport toy phenomenon of you know the 1980s, is what you know becomes the most popular sport in the universe a thousand years.
00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:45.920
And and so they they also tie it to the physical toy that what you're playing with is the thing that Beth created from DuckTales Ducky Horror Picture Show, Joe Martinez.
00:44:46.320 --> 00:44:48.320
Again, this is talking to the 80s.
00:44:48.480 --> 00:44:50.400
We did a lot of stuff in the libraries, right?
00:44:50.639 --> 00:44:51.039
At school.
00:44:51.280 --> 00:44:51.519
A lot.
00:44:51.840 --> 00:44:53.119
I was a library kid, man.
00:44:53.199 --> 00:45:00.559
I of course in middle school, I was a little nerd that hung out in the library and took my lunches in the library sometimes.
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:10.239
But um in the 80s, uh, I always checked out these books, and it was this this section of orange books that had Dracula.
00:45:10.320 --> 00:45:24.480
It had Bella Lugosi's Dracula, it had Wolfman, it had uh all the universal monsters, um, and then it had like a Godzilla and and uh those monsters book from Trick or Treat, Chad Young and Jeremy Phelps.
00:45:24.880 --> 00:45:31.920
They don't I mean uh the Nuke isn't really mentioned after the scene, I believe.
00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:33.360
So not much.
00:45:33.440 --> 00:45:35.360
I think yeah, like once or maybe once.
00:45:35.440 --> 00:45:35.679
Yeah.
00:45:36.239 --> 00:45:45.440
You hear him on the radio again, but he's not even at the because that's at the end of the movie when he's not even at the station, he's just playing a pre-recorded uh well episode.
00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:47.679
Yeah, that's great.
00:45:47.920 --> 00:45:52.559
From Garfield's Halloween Adventure, Art Kilmer, and Cecilia Davola.
00:45:53.360 --> 00:46:00.079
Yeah, I had I saw it uh at a when I was at a sleepover with uh our grandparents.
00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:02.880
Oh, nice okay.
00:46:03.360 --> 00:46:09.840
And I read the book too, so yeah, um many, many, many, many years ago.
00:46:11.440 --> 00:46:31.920
Um I was even younger than CeCe, but uh I I remember it coming out, and I remember watching it as a kid, um, as a teenager, and I even back then, I think there was a like a little Christmas podcaster in me back then from Once Bitten, Joe Martinez, and Tim Williams.
00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:35.199
The older and they're like, ooh, look at this one's got the new version.
00:46:35.280 --> 00:46:43.039
I'd want the new version of the coffin, but you know, I'd have fun just being one of her group, and just let me hang out.
00:46:44.480 --> 00:46:50.719
Yeah, and it's funny because like I think I would want to be uh, you know, Sebastian, like the right hand.
00:46:50.800 --> 00:46:51.119
Yeah.
00:46:51.360 --> 00:46:57.840
To be like, you know, taking care of her and you know, uh getting the stuff that she needs, just kind of like with like being kind of her protector.
00:46:57.920 --> 00:46:59.599
I think that would be that would be fun.
00:46:59.920 --> 00:47:09.280
And the winner is Art Kilmer and Cecilia Davila for Garfield's Halloween Adventure.
00:47:09.519 --> 00:47:14.159
This is Art Kilmer and Cecilia Davila's first win tonight.
00:47:14.800 --> 00:47:21.599
Wow, this is amazing, and I gotta tell you, I am stunned that we actually won this.
00:47:21.760 --> 00:47:28.719
We were up against some pretty tough competition, and my hat goes off to the other nominees in this category.
00:47:29.920 --> 00:47:33.199
Special shout out to my co-host CeC.
00:47:33.679 --> 00:47:39.519
We did it, I knew we could do it, and it was a blast working with you anytime.
00:47:39.679 --> 00:47:41.199
We'll we'll give me a call.
00:47:41.360 --> 00:47:42.639
We'll we'll do this again.
00:47:43.840 --> 00:47:46.320
Oh, sorry, that that was just weird.
00:47:46.400 --> 00:47:49.039
I thought I saw I saw a ghost.
00:47:49.199 --> 00:47:51.679
Maybe I've been watching too many Garfield cartoons.
00:47:52.239 --> 00:47:57.039
Okay, but I could have sworn I just saw a guy go by in in chains and I could see through him.
00:47:57.440 --> 00:47:58.000
You know what?
00:47:58.079 --> 00:48:04.159
Maybe I had too many shots at Tequila before before the uh the uh award show.
00:48:04.320 --> 00:48:05.119
That's probably it.
00:48:05.360 --> 00:48:07.519
Anyway, thanks again for this award.
00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:15.920
It's wonderful to be validated in such a way that when you get to do what you love to do, uh it just makes all the difference in the world.
00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:17.039
So thanks, Jerry.
00:48:17.119 --> 00:48:20.639
Thanks to those who who nominated me and voted for us.
00:48:20.880 --> 00:48:21.760
Thank you so much.
00:48:21.920 --> 00:48:25.119
Just okay, I'm serious, guys, I think there's a ghost over there.
00:48:26.880 --> 00:48:27.840
Thanks for the award.
00:48:27.920 --> 00:48:29.039
It was a really fun episode.
00:48:29.199 --> 00:48:30.559
Art was great to talk to.
00:48:30.719 --> 00:48:32.719
Um, can I get paid for this?
00:48:56.400 --> 00:48:58.880
This um this feels like Vigo energy.
00:48:59.360 --> 00:49:01.119
Maybe it was his painting that was judging us.
00:49:01.760 --> 00:49:03.280
Everything you are doing is bad.
00:49:03.360 --> 00:49:04.320
I want you to know this.
00:49:04.800 --> 00:49:05.360
Stop it.
00:49:06.079 --> 00:49:06.480
Stop it.
00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:13.280
Presenting the award for Radis Theology Bros episode, it's Tom Crow and Jerry D.
00:49:21.119 --> 00:49:23.199
Sometimes the season is loud and bright.
00:49:23.519 --> 00:49:27.440
And sometimes it calls us to pause and reflect.
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:30.559
And sometimes it calls us to rent a haunted mansion.
00:49:31.280 --> 00:49:33.199
As long as it's cheap, right, Jerry?
00:49:34.000 --> 00:49:37.679
The next category reflects the real meaning of the season.
00:49:38.000 --> 00:49:41.920
And each nominee reflects the season's two parts Advent and Christmas tide.
00:49:42.480 --> 00:49:46.880
So, two distinct seasons, two very fun and moving episodes.
00:49:47.119 --> 00:50:00.400
And the nominees for Radith Theology Bros episode are Art Kilmer and Tom Crow for the proclamation of the Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:06.480
We can get caught up in arguing about the details, and we miss the point of what's actually happening.
00:50:06.559 --> 00:50:11.280
That's that's something I've kind of really realized uh here recently.
00:50:11.840 --> 00:50:22.320
Is, you know, we we get caught up in all these little petty things, and and there's something greater going on and we're missing it because we want to be right about this particular thing.
00:50:23.199 --> 00:50:24.639
God did the thing and I'm cool with it.
00:50:24.719 --> 00:50:25.519
I'm not gonna argue with that.
00:50:25.840 --> 00:50:26.480
Exactly, exactly.
00:50:26.559 --> 00:50:27.280
That's that's all this is.
00:50:27.519 --> 00:50:32.000
He doesn't he did not ask me how he should do it, nor does he ask me how we should understand it.
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:37.119
And Tom Crow for East Meets West, Advent.
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:42.239
We have technically three, but it's rolled into two minor orders.
00:50:42.559 --> 00:50:50.719
We have the reader who is also uh tonsured a the reader or chanter, is also tonsured a taper bearer.
00:50:51.039 --> 00:50:51.199
Okay.
00:50:51.519 --> 00:50:53.199
So the prayers for both are read.
00:50:53.280 --> 00:51:00.079
And then after that comes the subdeacon, and they're not um ordained as part of the liturgy.
00:51:00.320 --> 00:51:09.440
The deacon is ordained during during the liturgy, is ordained and given a f then takes a fan and goes back in fans over the offering as it's getting clear.
00:51:10.000 --> 00:51:10.480
Nice.
00:51:10.880 --> 00:51:22.960
And the winner is Art Kilmar and Tom Crow for the proclamation of the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ.
00:51:23.760 --> 00:51:26.159
This is Tom Crow's first win tonight.
00:51:26.320 --> 00:51:28.960
This is Art Kilmer's second win tonight.
00:51:29.840 --> 00:51:34.400
This one wasn't really a shock, but uh it was it's really meaningful.
00:51:34.639 --> 00:51:43.280
I'm so grateful to have met Tom and Jerry and being invited in to uh talk theology with you guys.
00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:50.480
Especially your willingness to give up Christmas Eve so we can talk about things uh about what Christmas is really about.
00:51:50.800 --> 00:51:57.679
Uh as fun as it is to talk about Santa and presents and gifts and all that throughout the year.
00:51:57.840 --> 00:52:04.480
Uh I I think it's equally important to take time to acknowledge the Germany of Christmas, and that's what we did in this episode.
00:52:04.719 --> 00:52:11.760
And it means the world to us that you guys saw the value in that as well.
00:52:12.480 --> 00:52:14.800
And if I can just say one more thing.
00:52:15.039 --> 00:52:20.320
Uh you know, I I I just I swear I just saw a ghost go by.
00:52:20.480 --> 00:52:22.000
Tom, did you see that over there?
00:52:22.639 --> 00:52:23.199
You know what?
00:52:23.280 --> 00:52:26.719
Maybe the lasagna in the green room was sitting out too long.
00:52:26.800 --> 00:52:28.320
That's that's probably what it is.
00:52:36.480 --> 00:52:37.199
Oh, okay.
00:52:37.360 --> 00:52:38.480
The awards are floating.
00:52:38.639 --> 00:52:39.920
The awards are floating.
00:52:40.079 --> 00:52:42.079
Oh, maybe the house is haunted.
00:52:43.280 --> 00:52:49.599
Presenting the award for Raddest Watch Along episode, it's ZJ Bellinger and Mike Westball.
00:52:58.000 --> 00:53:02.639
Watch alongs, where you learn what your friends say during a movie when they feel safe.
00:53:03.280 --> 00:53:08.079
And tonight feels like we're learning what this house says during a movie when it feels unsafe.
00:53:09.440 --> 00:53:14.800
Yeah, this is less fun commentary track and more entity narrating your decisions.
00:53:15.440 --> 00:53:18.320
Like you should not have opened that door.
00:53:18.800 --> 00:53:21.360
Or pause the film and leave immediately.
00:53:21.840 --> 00:53:25.920
Which, to be fair, is solid advice for most horror situations.
00:53:26.320 --> 00:53:28.159
As long as it doesn't hog the popcorn.
00:53:29.199 --> 00:53:32.400
I would not trust anything in this house with a popcorn.
00:53:32.639 --> 00:53:42.719
Fair the nominees for Radus Watch Along episodes are CJ Bellanger and Anthony Caruso for planes, trains, and automobiles watch along.
00:53:43.199 --> 00:53:46.639
No, I remember like everyone wanted a low rider alley or whatever.
00:53:47.760 --> 00:53:47.920
Yeah.
00:53:48.639 --> 00:53:54.800
Well, maybe some parts of Texas, like there's a lot of Latinos that's still like that's part of their culture, right?
00:53:55.119 --> 00:54:00.400
In the 80s, dude, it was all like Lowrider, like all over the place.
00:54:00.960 --> 00:54:01.519
Yeah.
00:54:01.920 --> 00:54:05.280
There's another guy that's motel guys in a lot of 80s movies, too.
00:54:05.760 --> 00:54:06.559
Oh yeah.
00:54:07.280 --> 00:54:12.079
CJ Belanger and Anthony Caruso for a Christmas story watch alone.
00:54:12.719 --> 00:54:14.400
I would not abandon my friend here.
00:54:14.719 --> 00:54:16.400
And they all just ran away, yeah.
00:54:16.719 --> 00:54:17.840
Yeah, not cool.
00:54:19.840 --> 00:54:22.880
Out of the three of us, who'd be the one with the tongue up to pull?
00:54:23.199 --> 00:54:23.519
Not me.
00:54:25.760 --> 00:54:26.960
I thought Jerry.
00:54:28.800 --> 00:54:30.400
I actually definitely see Schwarz.
00:54:32.960 --> 00:54:34.559
I'm sensing a theme here.
00:54:34.880 --> 00:54:38.159
CJ Bellanger for Home Alone Watch Along.
00:54:38.400 --> 00:54:42.639
I watched the whole thing, but I anything after two, I can't I can't do.
00:54:42.960 --> 00:54:44.559
So three is rough.
00:54:45.199 --> 00:54:47.039
Ugh, good, don't get me started.
00:54:48.079 --> 00:54:52.880
For the longest time, I always thought this house was the uh Plains Tracy's automobiles house.
00:54:53.039 --> 00:54:54.400
Yeah, I mean it looks just like it.
00:54:54.719 --> 00:54:55.679
I I did too.
00:54:56.000 --> 00:55:01.519
I guess it was just like the Chicago like must be the aesthetic, right?
00:55:01.599 --> 00:55:09.599
Of the era they had similar and CJ Melange and Anthony Caruso for Christmas Vacation watching them.
00:55:10.079 --> 00:55:11.440
The in-laws are here.
00:55:11.760 --> 00:55:13.039
I don't know about you guys.
00:55:13.280 --> 00:55:14.880
Tell me if you feel the same way.
00:55:15.679 --> 00:55:19.920
I like my house just having me in it, like my kids in it.
00:55:20.239 --> 00:55:24.719
I don't like having people staying over at my place for an extended period of time.
00:55:24.800 --> 00:55:26.719
I feel like I feel out of place.
00:55:26.800 --> 00:55:28.400
I feel like I can't be myself.
00:55:28.559 --> 00:55:30.400
I feel like I'm being walked all over.
00:55:30.559 --> 00:55:31.440
Do you guys feel that way?
00:55:31.760 --> 00:55:32.480
A hundred percent.
00:55:33.119 --> 00:55:33.679
A little bit.
00:55:34.079 --> 00:55:38.639
When it comes time to staying elsewhere, I will always stay at a hotel because I like it.
00:55:38.719 --> 00:55:40.719
I'm the same frickin' weight.
00:55:40.880 --> 00:55:55.199
And the winner is Christmas Vacation with Jack and This is this duo's first win tonight.
00:55:59.280 --> 00:56:02.239
It's an honor to be up here again, receiving another award tonight.
00:56:02.320 --> 00:56:08.159
You know, uh, Christmas Vacation is one of those movies we all love, you know, uh, all for different reasons.
00:56:08.400 --> 00:56:12.239
For me, you know, to quote Tom, I'm a pervert.
00:56:12.639 --> 00:56:18.639
And probably for the girl at the mall and in the bathing suit, because it's getting a bit nipply out there, whenever I see her.
00:56:19.119 --> 00:56:19.840
Thank you, y'all.
00:56:19.920 --> 00:56:20.800
Merry Christmas.
00:56:34.159 --> 00:56:35.679
Nice commentary.
00:56:36.000 --> 00:56:37.280
It's me, of course.
00:56:37.440 --> 00:56:38.639
It's gonna be good, guys.
00:56:38.719 --> 00:56:39.199
Come on.
00:56:39.679 --> 00:56:42.079
Even the ghosts are leaving positive reviews.
00:56:42.320 --> 00:56:42.880
That's right.
00:56:43.119 --> 00:56:44.800
Five stars from beyond the grave.
00:56:44.960 --> 00:56:46.079
Ghosts love me.
00:56:46.239 --> 00:56:47.599
It's official.
00:56:48.159 --> 00:56:51.280
I'm a little concerned they're still watching.
00:56:51.519 --> 00:56:53.920
That just means they didn't fall asleep.
00:56:54.239 --> 00:56:55.199
Or leave.
00:56:55.679 --> 00:56:57.280
Okay, let's not think about that.
00:56:57.360 --> 00:56:58.800
I was having a good night, Mike.
00:56:58.960 --> 00:56:59.760
Come on.
00:57:03.519 --> 00:57:05.280
Announce with dignity.
00:57:05.519 --> 00:57:07.440
Sir, this is the Raddies.
00:57:07.840 --> 00:57:10.239
Oh, that is ugly, dude.
00:57:10.559 --> 00:57:16.079
This ballroom and this Haverfood winter ball committee demands formality.
00:57:16.639 --> 00:57:18.559
Definitely a class five.
00:57:19.119 --> 00:57:21.599
We're ready to believe you.
00:57:22.159 --> 00:57:23.920
Pause between the names.
00:57:24.159 --> 00:57:25.280
We do pause.
00:57:25.519 --> 00:57:27.199
It is not enough.
00:57:27.679 --> 00:57:30.159
Uh oh, let's see, do it to the chandelier.
00:57:30.639 --> 00:57:32.880
No worries, it's it's just spinning.
00:57:33.199 --> 00:57:34.159
Continue.
00:57:34.559 --> 00:57:35.840
Beta this time.
00:57:36.400 --> 00:57:36.719
Okay.
00:57:37.119 --> 00:57:40.960
We're officially in a spiritual performance review now.
00:57:41.519 --> 00:57:42.400
Totally red.
00:57:43.039 --> 00:57:47.760
Presenting the award for Raddest Alternate Dimension Full of Siblings episode.
00:57:47.920 --> 00:57:50.880
It's Chad Young and Mike Westfall.
00:57:56.559 --> 00:57:58.239
Well, that was unsettling.
00:57:58.559 --> 00:58:01.760
Here's another extremely specific category: alternate dimensions.
00:58:02.000 --> 00:58:02.559
Siblings.
00:58:02.800 --> 00:58:04.000
Emotional sticks.
00:58:04.719 --> 00:58:05.840
That's how it starts.
00:58:06.079 --> 00:58:09.920
First it's siblings, then it's choose the form of your destructor.
00:58:10.239 --> 00:58:12.079
Please let it be something adorable.
00:58:12.880 --> 00:58:14.719
Only if you choose fast enough.
00:58:15.039 --> 00:58:24.400
Well, the nominees for the Raddist Alternate Dimension Full of Siblings episode are Jeff Lofton and Joe Martinez, The Cosby Show, Father's Day.
00:58:24.639 --> 00:58:27.920
This is the only Christmas episode Christmas, quote unquote, with Rudy.
00:58:28.079 --> 00:58:29.119
So there's that.
00:58:29.360 --> 00:58:29.920
Yeah.
00:58:30.239 --> 00:58:30.559
Oh.
00:58:31.280 --> 00:58:31.599
Yeah.
00:58:32.719 --> 00:58:34.000
The others are post-Rudy.
00:58:34.079 --> 00:58:35.679
Like they have, I think, Raven Simone in them.
00:58:36.000 --> 00:58:37.039
Raven Simone, yeah.
00:58:37.119 --> 00:58:38.800
And Pam, I think, is in the last one.
00:58:39.119 --> 00:58:43.199
Don't you love the 80s when they can just like write out a child character and just pretend it never happened?
00:58:43.360 --> 00:58:44.000
Oh yeah.
00:58:44.400 --> 00:58:46.079
Looking at you, family matters.
00:58:47.760 --> 00:58:49.599
What happened to Judy Winslow?
00:58:49.679 --> 00:58:50.400
I still don't know.
00:58:50.639 --> 00:58:52.159
It was a favorite dream, man.
00:58:52.239 --> 00:58:53.280
She didn't ever exist.
00:58:53.519 --> 00:58:54.159
Yeah.
00:58:55.280 --> 00:58:57.760
She was a figment of Laura's imagination.
00:58:57.920 --> 00:58:58.559
Yeah.
00:58:59.679 --> 00:59:04.960
Or uh she got sucked into like an alternate dimension somewhere.
00:59:05.360 --> 00:59:07.199
That was the Mandela effect, right?
00:59:08.559 --> 00:59:09.519
That's right, that's right.
00:59:09.760 --> 00:59:12.239
Richie's brother from Happy Days took her.
00:59:14.079 --> 00:59:15.039
That's true.
00:59:15.440 --> 00:59:16.159
That's true.
00:59:16.320 --> 00:59:20.800
It's like the alternate reality where all the sibling characters go.
00:59:21.519 --> 00:59:22.159
That's right.
00:59:22.480 --> 00:59:23.840
We're like Y and Friends.
00:59:23.920 --> 00:59:26.800
What is it like Monica has like six different birthdays that they celebrate?
00:59:28.400 --> 00:59:31.920
It's just they're they're actually all just parallel universes as we know.
00:59:32.320 --> 00:59:34.159
We're just like you're zooming in on one.
00:59:35.119 --> 00:59:38.159
Wait, dude, that's that's it.
00:59:38.400 --> 00:59:38.960
Yup.
00:59:39.280 --> 00:59:45.599

00:59:59.199 --> 01:00:01.840

Uh I feel so grateful that that you guys took the time to vote and that uh that I was able to win this one.
01:00:07.280 --> 01:00:09.760
Um Radist alternate dimension full of siblings.
01:00:10.000 --> 01:00:13.920
Well, I grew up in a house full of siblings, and sometimes I feel like I'm from an alternate dimension.
01:00:14.000 --> 01:00:22.000
Uh this episode of the The Cosby show was hilarious and dealt with Father's Day and Christmas time and all kinds of like fun, interesting stuff.
01:00:22.079 --> 01:00:25.920
And as always, I'm just so grateful to Jerry for allowing me to be on his show.
01:00:26.079 --> 01:00:27.440
This was uh this was a great one.
01:00:27.519 --> 01:00:28.719
This is an excellent episode.
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:37.599
If you like more of these uh these uh conspiracy theories and alternate dimensions and multiversal uh theories, then keep checking out Jerry's podcast.
01:00:37.679 --> 01:00:39.840
He's got some great stuff and so many great guests.
01:00:40.000 --> 01:00:40.559
Thank you again.
01:00:40.800 --> 01:00:42.719
Feel very honored to have won.

Wow, Jerry D, thank you.
01:00:47.920 --> 01:00:52.639
Totally Rad Christmas listeners, thank you guys again for another Raddy Award.
01:00:52.800 --> 01:00:59.519
I tell you what, when Jerry put this Cosby Show episode together and I saw it on the list, I knew there was no way we could lose.
01:00:59.679 --> 01:01:02.320
I mean, could it be that we didn't have no one going against us?
01:01:02.480 --> 01:01:05.599
Yeah, but we totally deserve this win.
01:01:05.679 --> 01:01:16.960
Um, especially if we're coming out to this uh creepy house Jerry has is that I swear I'm hearing things, but uh my mind's playing tricks on me, guys.
01:01:17.119 --> 01:01:24.960
Alright, well, well, sounds like they're uh playing me off here, Jerry, but uh thank you so much again.
01:01:25.519 --> 01:01:27.679
Okay, I'm not the only one that heard that.
01:01:27.840 --> 01:01:29.199
You guys heard that, right?
01:01:30.639 --> 01:01:33.840
Was that a ghost?
01:01:34.639 --> 01:01:36.400
Jerry D, I gotta get out of here.
01:01:36.559 --> 01:01:37.199
Thank you very much.
01:01:37.360 --> 01:01:39.199
Thank you, totally right Christmas listeners.
01:01:39.360 --> 01:01:40.719
Goodbye, guys.
01:01:52.960 --> 01:01:58.880
Nobody hearing this presenting the award for Raddest Catapult Dream episode, it's Tom Crow.
01:02:08.239 --> 01:02:11.679
Dream logic is the purest logic, they say.
01:02:12.559 --> 01:02:14.400
Also the most dangerous.
01:02:14.800 --> 01:02:16.400
I mean, look at Freddie Krueger.
01:02:17.199 --> 01:02:19.280
And then there's the catapult dream.
01:02:19.760 --> 01:02:25.039
You know the kind when you're peacefully asleep and suddenly your brain decides, what if we ruin everything?
01:02:25.280 --> 01:02:27.280
You jolt awake, sit straight up.
01:02:27.519 --> 01:02:34.960
Sometimes fully airborne, like you've just been launched out of a medieval siege weapon, no warning, no explanation, just immediate panic.
01:02:35.440 --> 01:02:38.000
Sometimes there's a falling sensation.
01:02:38.239 --> 01:02:40.559
Sometimes you think you missed an alarm.
01:02:40.800 --> 01:02:45.119
Sometimes your brain just goes, Run and you don't even know what from.
01:02:45.840 --> 01:02:50.000
Which tonight feels kind of relatable.
01:02:50.639 --> 01:02:57.440
The nominees for Radus Catapult Dream episode are Matt Spaulding and Jeremy P.
01:02:57.599 --> 01:02:59.119
Helps for Prancer.
01:02:59.599 --> 01:03:08.079
I had a dream it um in college, uh my first year we had bunk beds, right?
01:03:08.239 --> 01:03:11.920
And uh our desk was below the bed, so I it was up.
01:03:12.159 --> 01:03:12.400
Okay.
01:03:13.119 --> 01:03:14.159
Like a bed.
01:03:14.800 --> 01:03:24.480
Yeah, and it was like the day before I was gonna go home for a vacation of some sort, Christmas or spring or whatever.
01:03:24.639 --> 01:03:32.800
Yeah, and like my roommate was already gone, and we lived in a suite with four other bedrooms in a common area, right?
01:03:33.199 --> 01:03:36.000
It wasn't it wasn't like a typical just like a hallway.
01:03:36.480 --> 01:03:39.039
And this is all important because I had a dream.
01:03:39.119 --> 01:03:49.199
I woke up, I could have sworn, I woke up from this dream that there were ants everywhere, like some sort of crazy antisha.
01:03:49.760 --> 01:03:56.800
And I jumped out of this bed, and it's important to know I was not wearing any pajamas or anything.
01:03:56.960 --> 01:04:10.480
I was just I jumped out of bed, out of the bunk bed, hit the floor, threw open my bedroom door, ran out into the common area, and then realized, dang, that was a nightmare I was having.
01:04:10.559 --> 01:04:12.320
There's no ants in there.
01:04:14.320 --> 01:04:21.599
And the winner is Matt Spaulding and Jeremy P.
01:04:21.760 --> 01:04:25.920
Helps! This is this duo's second win tonight.
01:04:27.039 --> 01:04:28.800
Wow, my fourth ready.
01:04:29.119 --> 01:04:32.159
And my second one tonight for Prancer was Santa Matt.
01:04:32.559 --> 01:04:35.039
Man, I'd really love to tell you that it's really cool.
01:04:35.599 --> 01:04:38.719
But the more I'm in this place, the creepier it gets.
01:04:39.440 --> 01:04:41.119
Something about this house.
01:04:41.920 --> 01:04:42.960
It's not right.
01:04:43.199 --> 01:04:54.159
You know, earlier I said I was pretty sure that I saw Sammy Kerr earlier, but just a few minutes ago, I was in the green room, and I know I saw the hat box ghost.
01:04:55.280 --> 01:05:02.559
And I'm pretty sure, you know, on my way up to the stage, I saw Robert and Jacob Marley off in the distance.
01:05:03.199 --> 01:05:08.880
And the sooner we get this over with, the sooner we get out of this place, the better.
01:05:25.360 --> 01:05:34.400
We get some ghostbusting gear, or presenting the award for Radis Little's episode, it's Jerry D.
01:05:47.039 --> 01:05:50.639
This next category makes me very happy since it's all about my kids.
01:05:52.880 --> 01:05:54.400
I'm getting a little overclipped.
01:06:00.079 --> 01:06:00.960
No a cake.
01:06:01.199 --> 01:06:02.079
Disgust.
01:06:03.599 --> 01:06:03.920
Okay.
01:06:04.559 --> 01:06:10.800
The nominees for Radus Little's episode are from Santa's special delivery, Little Number Three.
01:06:11.119 --> 01:06:12.320
I think it's fun.
01:06:12.559 --> 01:06:12.960
Fun?
01:06:13.119 --> 01:06:13.679
Yeah, fun.
01:06:14.000 --> 01:06:16.400
Having fun is is definitely half the battle.
01:06:16.559 --> 01:06:21.679
I think the other half is just spinning well and getting good spins.
01:06:21.840 --> 01:06:22.960
What do you think?
01:06:23.360 --> 01:06:24.559
I think so too.
01:06:24.719 --> 01:06:24.960
Yeah.
01:06:25.280 --> 01:06:28.159
But having fun is the point of this game.
01:06:28.400 --> 01:06:30.239
Well, it was a lot of fun playing with you.
01:06:30.320 --> 01:06:31.679
What do you want to tell our listeners?
01:06:31.920 --> 01:06:35.679
I hope you like this video and subscribe too.
01:06:36.480 --> 01:06:39.760
It's not a video, but sure, if you want to subscribe for sure.
01:06:39.840 --> 01:06:44.400
Although if they're already listening, I think they probably are already subscribed.
01:06:45.039 --> 01:06:47.920
This recording and subscribe too.
01:06:48.159 --> 01:06:51.440
From Garfield's Halloween Adventure, Little Number One.
01:06:51.679 --> 01:07:01.679
Uh, my favorite like part was where he's like, it's like the area, not area, but like the scene where he's still like in his bed kinda.
01:07:01.840 --> 01:07:04.239
And he's talking about like Halloween.
01:07:04.400 --> 01:07:09.760
And he says, Halloween is my kind of h well, Halloween is my kind of a holiday.
01:07:09.920 --> 01:07:11.679
Not like those other stupid holidays.
01:07:11.840 --> 01:07:13.840
I don't get pine needles in my paws.
01:07:13.920 --> 01:07:17.440
There's no dumb bunnies, no fireworks, no relatives, just candy.
01:07:17.679 --> 01:07:18.159
Boom.
01:07:18.320 --> 01:07:19.760
You go out, you get candy.
01:07:19.840 --> 01:07:20.960
It's as simple as that.
01:07:21.199 --> 01:07:21.679
Simple.
01:07:21.760 --> 01:07:22.639
That's me.
01:07:22.880 --> 01:07:24.400
And the winner is.
01:07:28.079 --> 01:07:29.039
It's a tie.
01:07:29.119 --> 01:07:31.679
It's little number one and little number three.
01:07:32.400 --> 01:07:36.960
This is little number three, Elizabeth Dobila's first win tonight.
01:07:37.119 --> 01:07:41.679
This is little number one, Cecilia Dobila's second win tonight.
01:07:44.239 --> 01:07:46.239
Whoa, this is so cool.
01:07:46.880 --> 01:07:48.960
Thank you so much for this, Red.
01:07:49.440 --> 01:07:53.360
I had so much fun talking about special delivery.
01:07:54.079 --> 01:07:57.039
It's one of those games where everything goes wrong.
01:07:57.440 --> 01:07:59.360
But that's what makes it awesome.
01:07:59.760 --> 01:08:02.239
I wanted to be Christmas.
01:08:02.960 --> 01:08:06.960
Everybody who listened and all the other little you guys are the best.
01:08:08.239 --> 01:08:12.880
Whenever you win or lose, it's always way more fun if you play again.
01:08:13.360 --> 01:08:15.280
Merry Christmas to everybody.
01:08:20.800 --> 01:08:22.800
Thank you for another award.
01:08:22.960 --> 01:08:25.119
Um it was really fun to record.
01:08:25.439 --> 01:08:27.199
Still waiting on my pay.
01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:39.840
Adorable.
01:08:40.960 --> 01:08:43.039
The creepy ghost said adorable.
01:08:53.840 --> 01:08:58.960
Uh there's a headless butler ghost throwing the raddi's envelopes around, guys.
01:08:59.279 --> 01:09:02.720
Uh and those portraits are coming off the walls and floating.
01:09:03.279 --> 01:09:04.159
Should we catch them?
01:09:04.640 --> 01:09:06.319
Okay, we have frost rolls.
01:09:09.199 --> 01:09:10.640
Oh, yeah.
01:09:13.600 --> 01:09:14.399
Uh that rock.
01:09:19.680 --> 01:09:21.039
Okay, nobody panic.
01:09:21.439 --> 01:09:22.319
Alright.
01:09:30.239 --> 01:09:32.399
That's why moving from the staircase?
01:09:32.880 --> 01:09:33.520
Oh great.
01:09:33.680 --> 01:09:35.039
We have moved slime.
01:09:35.359 --> 01:09:37.039
Definitely not a decorator.
01:09:37.439 --> 01:09:39.600
It appears emotionally responsive.
01:09:39.760 --> 01:09:42.960
Getting some serious Ghostbuster 2 vibes here.
01:09:43.359 --> 01:09:48.880
You think there's a connection between this painting character and the uh slime?
01:09:49.359 --> 01:09:52.239
The atomic weight of cobalt 58.9?
01:09:53.119 --> 01:09:53.920
Slime.
01:09:54.079 --> 01:09:56.000
Why'd it have to be slime?
01:09:56.319 --> 01:09:57.439
Oh, it looks like jello.
01:09:58.000 --> 01:09:58.880
I hate jello.
01:09:59.279 --> 01:10:01.119
Oh come on, there's always room for jello.
01:10:02.399 --> 01:10:05.119
Ugh, slime on the podium, gross.
01:10:06.479 --> 01:10:09.439
The bowl has lost its way.
01:10:10.319 --> 01:10:11.039
Gross.
01:10:11.199 --> 01:10:14.079
The slime looks like it's pulsing.
01:10:14.640 --> 01:10:17.119
The city will be reclaimed.
01:10:19.119 --> 01:10:20.560
Uh yeah.
01:10:20.960 --> 01:10:24.640
Uh hey, CJ, we gotta present the next award.
01:10:26.079 --> 01:10:28.720
I guess let's give it a try.
01:10:31.760 --> 01:10:32.880
Totally read.
01:10:33.359 --> 01:10:39.760
Presenting the award for Radus Live Action TV show episode, it's Tom Crow and CJ Bellinger.
01:10:47.359 --> 01:10:49.439
Live action Christmas episodes.
01:10:50.479 --> 01:10:51.359
Comfort food.
01:10:51.840 --> 01:10:56.800
Unless it's dynasty, but then it's comfort food served on a mirror tray with betrayal.
01:10:57.439 --> 01:11:02.319
Yeah, nothing that says Christmas quite like shoulder pads and emotional devastation.
01:11:02.880 --> 01:11:06.479
And at least one person dramatically turning away from a window.
01:11:06.880 --> 01:11:10.000
Preferably while holding a drink that they never actually said.
01:11:10.880 --> 01:11:17.520
And a secret they absolutely revealed by That is the magic of action television.
01:11:18.079 --> 01:11:21.199
That kind of very visible studio lighting.
01:11:21.439 --> 01:11:21.840
Very important.
01:11:33.600 --> 01:11:36.239
Yes, that is of course part of the show.
01:11:39.119 --> 01:11:40.000
Practical effect.
01:11:40.720 --> 01:11:43.359
We did not plan a practical sign.
01:11:44.399 --> 01:11:45.199
We did now.
01:11:47.039 --> 01:11:48.880
It's it is kind of spreading.
01:11:49.680 --> 01:11:50.720
That's immersive.
01:11:51.279 --> 01:11:53.359
It is approaching my$300.
01:11:54.800 --> 01:11:56.239
Audience engagement CJ.
01:11:56.720 --> 01:11:58.560
Okay, it's kind of making eye contact.
01:11:58.720 --> 01:11:59.840
I'm a little freaked out.
01:12:00.159 --> 01:12:01.439
I'm very committed to that.
01:12:02.239 --> 01:12:03.680
Tom, that is not enough of that.
01:12:04.239 --> 01:12:07.439
Hey, we are choosing to treat it as one.
01:12:09.279 --> 01:12:10.000
Gotcha.
01:12:11.119 --> 01:12:17.119
The nominees for Radus Live Action TV show episode are from Alf.
01:12:17.600 --> 01:12:22.319
O Tannerbaum, Chad Young, and Vinny Brzezinski.
01:12:22.800 --> 01:12:24.479
But here's a random question for you guys.
01:12:24.640 --> 01:12:28.159
How many people you know actually put up their trees on Christmas Eve?
01:12:28.319 --> 01:12:29.680
I know people put them up later.
01:12:29.760 --> 01:12:37.680
I mean, look, they're not gonna put them up as early as we are, but um like I just don't understand doing it like Christmas Eve and then taking it down the day after.
01:12:37.920 --> 01:12:39.359
It seems like a lot of work.
01:12:39.520 --> 01:12:39.760
Yeah.
01:12:40.000 --> 01:12:44.720
Um but I I have not met ever known one person that's actually done it on Christmas Eve.
01:12:45.039 --> 01:12:52.720
I would not associate with anybody who does that because I feel like it would they would be just too much and they would be too psychopathic for Christmas.
01:12:52.960 --> 01:12:53.119
Yeah.
01:12:53.439 --> 01:12:57.119
From The Facts of Life, the Christmas show, Troy.
01:12:58.319 --> 01:13:02.399
I think that kind of set the theme for the rest of the episode.
01:13:02.640 --> 01:13:10.880
Because she spent a little bit of time on that particular uh that particular diodon with with being you know defensive about the monster.
01:13:11.520 --> 01:13:14.880
I think that kind of set the tone for a lot of the rest of the uh the episode.
01:13:15.199 --> 01:13:18.399
From SCTV, it's a wonderful film.
01:13:18.720 --> 01:13:22.079
Ken Kessler and Scott Leopold and Jeff Lofton.
01:13:22.640 --> 01:13:30.159
Well, and it's funny because I had the hardest time watching Home Alone when it first came out because of SCTV.
01:13:30.399 --> 01:13:31.520
Oh wow, okay.
01:13:31.760 --> 01:13:35.840
Because I I just I I associated her so much with SCTV.
01:13:36.079 --> 01:13:40.000
It just seeing her as a mom, I just I had a hard time with that.
01:13:41.279 --> 01:13:42.319
But I love her interaction.
01:13:44.399 --> 01:13:45.760
I was about to bring up, yep.
01:13:45.920 --> 01:13:47.199
I love their interaction.
01:13:47.359 --> 01:13:50.800
From Family Ties, Miracle and Columbus, Jeff Fox.
01:13:51.520 --> 01:13:56.560
There's a lot of reasons you don't go back and watch some shows because they are perfect in your mind, and then you go back and watch it.
01:13:56.720 --> 01:13:59.520
Then you go back and watch it, tarnishes it just a bit, yeah.
01:14:00.079 --> 01:14:01.039
Well, a lot.
01:14:01.279 --> 01:14:01.920
That's true.
01:14:02.079 --> 01:14:03.520
But family ties does hold up.
01:14:03.600 --> 01:14:07.920
I was I was actually impressed watching this episode, thinking this is a well-crafted episode.
01:14:08.000 --> 01:14:09.039
They've done a good job here.
01:14:09.119 --> 01:14:13.840
So from Dynasty, the Holiday Spirit, Bob Baker, and William Bruce West.
01:14:14.399 --> 01:14:22.479
But you know, Will, you're correct in terms I think it didn't get popular or as successful until Alexis comes in.
01:14:22.800 --> 01:14:27.600
Because, and then, and and here you have she's like, is she's English, right?
01:14:27.680 --> 01:14:28.720
So she's from England.
01:14:28.800 --> 01:14:31.039
So that adds another whole element to it, right?
01:14:31.119 --> 01:14:33.039
I mean oh yeah, yeah.
01:14:33.359 --> 01:14:40.880
But the the thing is, it's like it was great for the show, but like it seems like the creative people feel like that's when they lost control of it.
01:14:40.960 --> 01:14:43.760
It's basically like when Ugh took over Family Matters.
01:14:43.920 --> 01:14:45.039
You know, it's true, totally.
01:14:45.520 --> 01:14:48.479
People are watching, but this isn't what we signed on for.
01:14:48.640 --> 01:14:53.600
Like, apparently, there's something called a Moldovian massacre that comes around later.
01:14:53.920 --> 01:14:58.399
And from Airwolf Half Pint, Sean Soka, and Joe Martinez.
01:14:58.880 --> 01:15:04.399
Yeah, when you get the EDF pod and the guns tracted in, yeah, it looks like a regular helicopter.
01:15:04.479 --> 01:15:04.720
Yeah.
01:15:04.960 --> 01:15:08.159
Except for the except for the jet engines on the side.
01:15:10.640 --> 01:15:11.279
That's right.
01:15:11.439 --> 01:15:12.720
Like, hey, what are those things?
01:15:12.800 --> 01:15:13.600
Uh, don't worry about it.
01:15:13.680 --> 01:15:14.159
Don't worry about it.
01:15:14.239 --> 01:15:15.760
It's just we're just regular Civi.
01:15:17.359 --> 01:15:18.960
The mass always got me.
01:15:19.039 --> 01:15:23.359
Like, I always thought, like, even again, I I'm gonna say it, guys.
01:15:23.439 --> 01:15:26.399
I'm a I was a big fan of Ernest Porg9 for some reason.
01:15:26.560 --> 01:15:29.520
Uh a huge fan.
01:15:29.680 --> 01:15:32.159
And to know that like he came adventure?
01:15:32.319 --> 01:15:39.119
Yeah, like he came from the 50s, 60s, 70s, and he had already uh won an Oscar uh back in those days.
01:15:39.439 --> 01:15:51.199
And the winner is Ken Kessler, Scott Leopold Leopold, and Jeff Lofton for SCTV.
01:15:51.920 --> 01:15:55.840
This is Ken Kessler and Scott Leopold's first win tonight.
01:15:56.239 --> 01:15:59.039
This is Jeff Lofton's second win tonight.
01:16:00.159 --> 01:16:02.239
Hi, this is Ken from The Sounds of Christmas.
01:16:02.399 --> 01:16:12.560
Very grateful to have been part of the team that was voted Raddest Live Action TV show episode for our episode about SCTV's Christmas episode, It's a Wonderful Film.
01:16:12.800 --> 01:16:22.560
I loved SCTV back in the early 80s, mostly the cast that was part of it before the season with this particular episode, but it was still a lot of fun.
01:16:22.720 --> 01:16:31.439
And it was fun to join Scott from the Holly Jolly XMASU podcast and Jeff from the Lost Christmas podcast to revisit that special episode.
01:16:31.680 --> 01:16:36.399
I probably should also thank the cast of SCTV for making all of this possible.
01:16:36.560 --> 01:16:45.600
And thank you, Jerry D, for inviting me to join in on another fun episode as you continue to keep the spirit of Christmas alive all year long.
01:16:51.039 --> 01:16:54.159
Hey Jerry, this is Scott from Holly Jolly Xmasu.
01:16:54.560 --> 01:16:58.560
I have come here to chew bubblegum and win rattys, and I'm all out of bubblegum.
01:16:59.039 --> 01:17:02.319
I can't tell you how thrilled I am to win another of these coveted awards.
01:17:02.479 --> 01:17:07.119
This time for the Rattus live action TV show episode for when we talked about SC TV.
01:17:07.760 --> 01:17:11.920
Speaking of SC TV, I'm pretty sure I passed Count Floyd on the way to the podium.
01:17:12.640 --> 01:17:16.319
Thanks again, and I'm hoping next year you'll be able to upgrade to a more Christmassy venue.
01:17:16.720 --> 01:17:18.479
This place is really scaring the kids.
01:17:22.399 --> 01:17:28.720
I wanted to say a big, big thank you for all the votes for Rattus Live Action TV show episode and the award.
01:17:28.880 --> 01:17:32.560
Uh you know, I've just I feel so grateful that you guys listened, that you enjoyed it.
01:17:32.640 --> 01:17:38.319
Um SCTV is a fantastic show, and I'm so glad that I was able to to to cover it with these guys.
01:17:38.479 --> 01:17:44.479
Um Jerry, as always, is a fantastic host, and we're so I'm just so grateful that uh that I was able to be a part of this.
01:17:44.640 --> 01:17:49.039
Uh so many great people on that episode and uh so much hilarity that ensued.
01:17:49.119 --> 01:17:51.279
Uh if you haven't seen that episode, go check it out.
01:17:51.359 --> 01:17:56.399
If you haven't seen the SCTV episode from way back when, definitely go check that out as well.
01:17:56.560 --> 01:17:57.279
Thank you very much.
01:17:57.359 --> 01:18:01.199
I feel honored, and as always, uh keep listening to the Raddies.
01:18:09.199 --> 01:18:12.079
The paintings are fans as intended.
01:18:12.640 --> 01:18:13.840
You did not intend that.
01:18:14.159 --> 01:18:17.119
I intended enthusiasm.
01:18:18.399 --> 01:18:22.079
Your effect is gaining confidence.
01:18:22.720 --> 01:18:23.359
Yes.
01:18:24.239 --> 01:18:26.640
Um let's wrap up the category and move on, CJ.
01:18:27.520 --> 01:18:33.039
Presenting the award for Radis Disney episode, it's Mike Westfall and Jerry D.
01:18:41.279 --> 01:18:43.039
Disney Christmas content.
01:18:43.359 --> 01:18:44.319
Unforgettable.
01:18:44.479 --> 01:18:51.359
From Mickey to the Muppets, you can always count on Disney to have some fantastic programming, specials, and more.
01:18:51.840 --> 01:18:54.800
Also the kind of thing that makes this house hiss for some reason.
01:18:55.039 --> 01:18:57.439
I think I'll skip some of the banter, uh, Mike.
01:18:57.680 --> 01:19:06.880
The nominees for Radiss Disney episode are Tim Babb and Charlie Eguew for 1985 Walt Disney World Very Merry Christmas Parade.
01:19:07.359 --> 01:19:12.880
Half of that stuff looks like it was like the stuff that just wasn't, it didn't cut it enough for Star Wars, so they're like, let's use it for that.
01:19:12.960 --> 01:19:19.279
It's like some of the characters are so off, but like they wouldn't they wouldn't look out of place in Star Wars, but in something like this they look perfect.
01:19:19.520 --> 01:19:25.920
I wonder if it was like originally gonna be like the Star Wars holiday special, then they like spun it off into Captain EO.
01:19:26.319 --> 01:19:33.279
Well, I think they wanted him to do a Star Wars thing, but he's like, well, I don't want to do actual Star Wars, and my only stipulation is like no one can die in this.
01:19:33.439 --> 01:19:39.359
So there's no actual violence of, you know, like no one's getting shot, no one's anything like that.
01:19:39.680 --> 01:19:44.239
And Mike Westfald and Tim Babb for the all-new Mickey Mouse Club Christmas special.
01:19:44.720 --> 01:19:46.159
Jennifer's the one with the perm.
01:19:46.319 --> 01:19:54.159
I remember Jennifer because like Jennifer, Lindsay, and I think Josh were in every season of the Mickey Mouse Club.
01:19:54.640 --> 01:19:58.079
And Jennifer was the best singer, I would say, of all of them.
01:19:58.239 --> 01:20:00.720
But I feel like she didn't get enough love on the show.
01:20:00.800 --> 01:20:02.880
Like, whenever she would sing, she would kill it.
01:20:03.680 --> 01:20:17.199
And that maybe not the best, because like, you know, whatever uh Christina Aguilera and um other people are in there, but I felt like, especially in the early days, like she was she was really like singing-wise, I felt I felt like she was really good.
01:20:17.520 --> 01:20:25.840
And the winner is Tim Babb and Charlie Agu for 85 Disney.
01:20:26.560 --> 01:20:28.159
Congrats, y'all.
01:20:28.880 --> 01:20:31.760
This is this duo's first win tonight.
01:20:33.279 --> 01:20:34.319
Thank you so much.
01:20:34.479 --> 01:20:38.960
This means a lot to me to win in the best Disney category because I've been a Disney adult since before.
01:20:39.039 --> 01:20:39.840
That was a thing.
01:20:40.000 --> 01:20:42.079
So I'm glad I got to be on this episode.
01:20:42.159 --> 01:20:49.680
I'm glad we recorded it hot on the heels of my most recent trip to Disney World, so I felt like an episode, and I'm also glad- whoa! What was that?
01:20:49.840 --> 01:20:52.800
Did Did you guys recreate the ghost from the haunted mansion?
01:20:52.880 --> 01:20:53.439
That's cool.
01:20:53.600 --> 01:20:57.039
But I feel like this episode didn't really talk about that part of Disney World.
01:20:57.279 --> 01:20:59.119
Uh, anyway, thanks again.
01:20:59.920 --> 01:21:00.880
Wow, thank you.
01:21:01.039 --> 01:21:04.319
The 1985 Disney Parade episode was such a joy to make.
01:21:04.399 --> 01:21:09.279
It's got everything magic, nostalgia, and enough Christmas spirit to power Santa's sleigh twice over.
01:21:09.439 --> 01:21:13.439
I have to say though, standing up here tonight, I swear I just saw a ghost by the curtain.
01:21:13.600 --> 01:21:17.600
Either that or someone dressed as the ghost of Christmas past and is really committed to the bit.
01:21:17.760 --> 01:21:22.560
But seriously, this award means the world, I'll treasure it, assuming that it doesn't float away later.
01:21:22.720 --> 01:21:23.520
Thank you.
01:21:34.000 --> 01:21:36.000
Guys, okay, it's a commercial break.
01:21:36.239 --> 01:21:38.079
What are we gonna do about this ghost?
01:21:38.319 --> 01:21:40.560
We cannot brute force this.
01:21:40.800 --> 01:21:44.880
You know, but brute forcing things can kinda be a lot of fun, Mike.
01:21:45.199 --> 01:21:46.159
We need data.
01:21:46.479 --> 01:21:48.159
Every spirit has a story.
01:21:48.560 --> 01:21:50.239
Preferably one with anything.
01:21:50.720 --> 01:21:52.000
Okay, okay, new plan.
01:21:52.079 --> 01:21:52.960
We learn about him.
01:21:53.359 --> 01:21:55.359
We research the house.
01:21:55.600 --> 01:21:57.119
We find records.
01:21:57.760 --> 01:22:01.680
Yes, we ask questions instead of screaming and running.
01:22:02.239 --> 01:22:02.880
Agreed.
01:22:03.359 --> 01:22:07.439
Maybe I'll distract the audience with like some guest participation before each category?
01:22:07.520 --> 01:22:12.159
I mean, that could buy us some time to learn and hopefully keep their minds from thinking the place is haunted.
01:22:12.479 --> 01:22:16.159
Jair Bear, there's weird ooze everywhere and things are flying off the walls.
01:22:16.399 --> 01:22:22.239
I think everybody knows this is definitely 100% unequivocally a haunted house.
01:22:22.560 --> 01:22:23.439
Oh man.
01:22:26.159 --> 01:22:27.199
Totally red.
01:22:27.680 --> 01:22:31.520
Alright, I'm heading into the audience just like a real awards show.
01:22:32.159 --> 01:22:35.840
Uh, because nothing builds trust like leaving the stage in a haunted mansion.
01:22:36.319 --> 01:22:39.600
Charlie, it's Charlie Egu from Closer to Christmas.
01:22:45.039 --> 01:22:47.359
Charlie, how are you enjoying the show tonight?
01:22:47.680 --> 01:22:48.800
I'm loving it, Jerry.
01:22:48.880 --> 01:22:53.680
This might be the most festive, haunted experience I've ever had, and I've been to Whitecastle.
01:22:57.119 --> 01:22:57.760
That's great.
01:22:57.920 --> 01:23:01.199
I mean, we aim for holiday cheer with mild paranormal risk.
01:23:01.439 --> 01:23:03.680
Yeah, I noticed the portraits whispering earlier.
01:23:03.920 --> 01:23:05.039
They're very supportive.
01:23:05.279 --> 01:23:07.920
One of them asked me to respect the dignity of the ceremony.
01:23:08.159 --> 01:23:10.000
Yeah, we've been getting that note all night.
01:23:10.239 --> 01:23:11.359
Also, is it just me?
01:23:11.439 --> 01:23:13.119
Or was the punch bubbling and churning?
01:23:13.279 --> 01:23:15.039
Uh okay, yeah, don't drink the punch.
01:23:15.279 --> 01:23:16.479
Wasn't planning on it.
01:23:16.720 --> 01:23:17.520
Smart man.
01:23:17.680 --> 01:23:20.079
This is why Charlie keeps getting invited back, y'all.
01:23:20.399 --> 01:23:21.760
Situational awareness.
01:23:22.079 --> 01:23:22.640
Exactly.
01:23:22.880 --> 01:23:25.279
Charlie Egg, you, ladies and gentlemen.
01:23:27.680 --> 01:23:29.760
Alright, we're gonna keep it moving here.
01:23:31.520 --> 01:23:34.479
Alright, well, let's check in with another audience member here.
01:23:34.560 --> 01:23:38.079
Um, hey, it's CM Chuck from just another Friday night.
01:23:41.039 --> 01:23:42.159
Chuck, great to see you.
01:23:42.239 --> 01:23:43.199
How's your night going?
01:23:43.680 --> 01:23:44.640
Pretty good, Jerry.
01:23:44.720 --> 01:23:54.079
You know, I was talking to Caleb Cody and Nicholas Pepin earlier, and we were just trying to figure out if this is more of a boogeyman situation or a Sam Hain level event.
01:23:54.479 --> 01:23:55.680
That's a great question.
01:23:56.000 --> 01:23:58.720
Yeah, because if it's Sam Hain, we're already too late.
01:23:59.359 --> 01:24:00.720
Okay, let's not say that out loud.
01:24:00.800 --> 01:24:01.199
No, no.
01:24:01.680 --> 01:24:04.960
I'm just saying if I'm gonna start floating, I'm leaving.
01:24:06.880 --> 01:24:08.399
Yeah, that checks out.
01:24:08.960 --> 01:24:10.640
Also, the slime is concerning.
01:24:11.199 --> 01:24:12.000
That's a feature.
01:24:12.640 --> 01:24:13.520
That's not a feature.
01:24:14.000 --> 01:24:15.279
It's a premium feature.
01:24:15.680 --> 01:24:16.960
It just moved toward me.
01:24:17.359 --> 01:24:18.479
That means it likes you.
01:24:18.800 --> 01:24:20.319
I don't want it to like me.
01:24:20.640 --> 01:24:22.159
Well, nobody really does.
01:24:23.199 --> 01:24:26.880
Also, if this turns into a boogeyman situation, I'm not going into any closet.
01:24:27.520 --> 01:24:28.000
Good call.
01:24:28.079 --> 01:24:31.840
Yeah, we are strictly no closet exploration production tonight.
01:24:34.239 --> 01:24:34.640
Alright.
01:24:34.880 --> 01:24:36.239
See him chuck, everybody.
01:24:36.319 --> 01:24:40.479
Uh, but on that note, back to the stage before any of the furniture develops opinions here.
01:24:41.840 --> 01:24:45.680
Here to present the award for Radus Christmas TV special episode.
01:24:45.840 --> 01:24:48.079
It's Chad Young and Tom Crow.
01:24:54.319 --> 01:24:56.880
Christmas TV specials are sacred texts.
01:24:57.119 --> 01:24:58.239
They're timeless.
01:24:58.560 --> 01:25:02.000
Some are reverent, some are weird, and some are both.
01:25:02.239 --> 01:25:12.880
The nominees for Radiss Christmas TV special episode are from Nestor, the long-eared Christmas donkey, Jeff Lofton, and Jeremy P.
01:25:13.039 --> 01:25:13.520
Helps.
01:25:14.000 --> 01:25:18.800
Oh, well, yeah, that's salty, so they would have just, you know, got rid of him and you know not have to feed him.
01:25:19.039 --> 01:25:21.920
If he I mean, if he kept tripping over his ears, probably, honestly.
01:25:22.880 --> 01:25:25.439
Would have just made him into dinner, sadly.
01:25:25.680 --> 01:25:26.000
Yeah.
01:25:26.239 --> 01:25:27.279
Just be an honest keeper.
01:25:27.600 --> 01:25:30.720
Because at least, at least if he doesn't trip over him, he can at least like pull stuff.
01:25:31.199 --> 01:25:31.359
Right?
01:25:32.479 --> 01:25:35.119
Or like, you know, just tie his ears around.
01:25:35.600 --> 01:25:36.399
Just tie him back.
01:25:36.479 --> 01:25:37.439
Put him in a ponytail.
01:25:37.520 --> 01:25:38.880
Like, it's all good, man.
01:25:40.319 --> 01:25:42.399
Ponytail almost quite literally.
01:25:42.560 --> 01:25:45.920
Uh that would be better for Dominic to have a ponytail, though.
01:25:47.760 --> 01:25:49.359
Dominic probably does have the ponytail.
01:25:49.520 --> 01:25:51.520
Through a ball cap with a bald head.
01:25:52.399 --> 01:25:56.239
From Motown Merry Christmas, Ken Kessler.
01:25:56.800 --> 01:26:03.279
I remember when it was being advertised and it was going to be on whenever it was going to be on.
01:26:03.359 --> 01:26:05.199
And I thought, oh, I'd like to see that.
01:26:05.279 --> 01:26:06.560
And then and I missed it.
01:26:07.039 --> 01:26:07.680
Yeah.
01:26:08.319 --> 01:26:10.880
But now I have seen it years later.
01:26:12.640 --> 01:26:14.399
Like, did you really miss it?
01:26:14.640 --> 01:26:15.279
Yeah.
01:26:15.920 --> 01:26:18.159
From Babar and Father Christmas.
01:26:18.319 --> 01:26:19.199
Michael Mann.
01:26:19.680 --> 01:26:21.439
I mean, I guess it depends.
01:26:21.840 --> 01:26:23.600
Like, is it actually at the North Pole?
01:26:23.680 --> 01:26:24.319
Like, is it.
01:26:24.560 --> 01:26:25.039
I don't know.
01:26:25.119 --> 01:26:26.479
I'm pretty lazy here.
01:26:27.840 --> 01:26:30.000
If it's a lot of effort, then I don't know.
01:26:30.079 --> 01:26:38.079
Like, if I'm not riding the sled dog, probably to go, but um, yeah, if it's somewhere I thought I could get to, sure.
01:26:38.399 --> 01:26:42.239
From a very special Christmas party, Scott Leopold and Ken Castle.
01:26:43.359 --> 01:26:46.000
Big difference between action Arnold and Goofy Arnold.
01:26:46.239 --> 01:26:47.119
Right, right.
01:26:47.439 --> 01:26:47.920
Yeah.
01:26:48.239 --> 01:26:55.760
Because if it if it wasn't up to this point, we really hadn't seen Arnold in anything goofy.
01:26:56.159 --> 01:26:56.479
Right.
01:26:56.800 --> 01:27:02.880
Unless you go back to the villain in the in the 70s, which hardly anybody has seen.
01:27:03.119 --> 01:27:06.239
And and he wasn't really goofy in that.
01:27:06.640 --> 01:27:12.000
Um the every everything else about that movie was.
01:27:12.319 --> 01:27:13.600
But but he wasn't.
01:27:13.760 --> 01:27:18.720
But I don't think there was anything else that we had seen him being funny.
01:27:19.199 --> 01:27:22.000
Twit Twins came out 13 days before this aired.
01:27:22.399 --> 01:27:24.880
From a rock and roll Christmas, King Kessler.
01:27:25.520 --> 01:27:37.199
I remember I I saw this when it aired live, and I remember being very excited about it because of the ads and the build-up and all the people on it.
01:27:37.359 --> 01:27:40.399
And then I watched it.
01:27:41.439 --> 01:27:52.000
And there were some there were some cool parts, but overall I I was I was disappointed, and a couple things kinda really annoyed me.
01:27:52.239 --> 01:27:58.960
Well the the what I was disappointed in was that so many of the songs got clipped.
01:27:59.119 --> 01:27:59.439
Right.
01:28:00.239 --> 01:28:12.319
Whether it was just a short version or they there was one that was a a four four and a half minutes song, but they clipped it down to a minute and a half.
01:28:12.640 --> 01:28:17.279
From Scrooge's Rock and Roll Christmas, Ken Kessler, and Scott Leopold.
01:28:17.760 --> 01:28:27.600
And again, not bad, but it it doesn't stick with you like you know, they they put out a pretty wild Christmas album in their prime.
01:28:28.079 --> 01:28:34.800
Um and like it or hate it, um, you listen to it once and you're gonna remember something from it.
01:28:35.439 --> 01:28:44.479
For the presumed audience, which I think would be kind of an MTV sort of audience for something like this.
01:28:44.800 --> 01:29:02.159
Most are probably not familiar at the time, probably not familiar with Paul Revere's readers, more so today, but they used to perform in revolutionary era outfits.
01:29:02.479 --> 01:29:10.479
And the winner is Ken Kessler for a rock and roll Christmas.
01:29:12.479 --> 01:29:15.199
This is Ken Kessler's second win tonight.
01:29:16.399 --> 01:29:18.880
Hi, this is Ken from The Sounds of Christmas.
01:29:19.039 --> 01:29:30.159
Honored to have been on the Rock and Roll Christmas episode of the Totally Rad Christmas podcast, especially since it just won the ready for raddest Christmas TV special episode.
01:29:30.319 --> 01:29:34.079
How cool is that! It really was a rad TV special.
01:29:34.319 --> 01:29:39.840
The music was great, and I still wish they'd release it officially, especially that Fabulous Thunderbird song.
01:29:40.079 --> 01:29:52.159
The comedic skits didn't really stand the test of time, and my memory of watching it when it first aired was that those skits kind of well left something to be desired even back then.
01:29:52.399 --> 01:30:02.079
Anyway, I I gotta thank Eddie Money, Little Richard, Pat Penator, and, as I already mentioned, the Fabulous Thunderbirds, the music really was terrific.
01:30:02.399 --> 01:30:09.199
Also, thanks to Dennis Miller, I suppose, for going along with all of this, and I hope Fox paid well.
01:30:09.520 --> 01:30:12.800
And thank you so much for listening and for voting.
01:30:13.039 --> 01:30:19.680
And special thanks to Jerry D for inviting me on and for keeping the spirit of Christmas going all year long.
01:30:26.319 --> 01:30:29.439
Ladies and gentlemen, it's Anthony Caruso.
01:30:36.399 --> 01:30:43.680
Last night, Sean Sotka hosted a special ceremony honoring some of the technical achievements in 80s Christmas podcasting.
01:30:43.920 --> 01:30:46.239
Here are some highlights of the evening.
01:31:13.439 --> 01:31:15.680
Yeah, I can't I can't do this anymore.
01:31:16.000 --> 01:31:35.279
Jerry's broke, but McDonald's was accommodating enough to at least look like they were in the 80s, and they're giving out their holiday McNugget boxes and apple cinnamon and cranberry orange sauces, as well as eggnog milkshakes and peppermint sundays.
01:31:35.600 --> 01:31:37.039
Way to go, Jerry.
01:31:37.680 --> 01:31:39.119
Love this show.
01:31:46.399 --> 01:31:52.000
Anyways, we got the technical rattdies for you here, and let's get going with this.
01:31:52.960 --> 01:32:08.399
The rattest Christmas villain episode goes to Nicholas Pepin from Pop Culture Roulette for Ho Ho No, the Fight Before Christmas.
01:32:12.800 --> 01:32:14.239
Wow, this is incredible.
01:32:14.399 --> 01:32:22.479
On behalf of all of us, thank you for this technical ratty for the Rattus Christmas Villain episode for Ho Ho No, the Fight Before Christmas.
01:32:22.640 --> 01:32:27.920
The bracket we did to determine the ultimate Christmas villain, and somehow we came out on top.
01:32:28.239 --> 01:32:32.079
Yeah, big thanks to the Academy for hosting the technical rattdies here tonight.
01:32:32.319 --> 01:32:37.760
Inside McDonald's, that looks like Christmas crashed into 1988 and just stayed.
01:32:38.000 --> 01:32:47.439
We've got glowing plastic garland, faded wall murals of winter scenes that feel slightly off, and a Santa that absolutely hasn't blinked since the Cold War.
01:32:47.680 --> 01:32:49.520
And honestly, it feels right.
01:32:49.600 --> 01:32:56.399
Because much like our bracket, this place is a little chaotic, slightly unhinged, and somehow still works.
01:32:56.640 --> 01:33:01.520
Also, holiday McNugget boxes with apple cinnamon and cranberry orange sauce?
01:33:01.760 --> 01:33:04.159
That's a championship level combo.
01:33:04.720 --> 01:33:14.159
That episode was one of our favorites, pitting iconic Christmas villains against each other, making questionable decisions, and probably upsetting a few listeners along the way.
01:33:14.479 --> 01:33:16.640
But that's what a good bracket does.
01:33:16.800 --> 01:33:24.560
It sparks debate, causes arguments, and occasionally makes you question everything you thought you'd do about holiday movies.
01:33:24.960 --> 01:33:34.960
Also, quick shout-out to the Eggnot Milk and Pepper McSunday for powering both this ceremony, and frankly, how the creative process tonight.
01:33:43.680 --> 01:33:47.199
So if our bracket taught us anything, it's this.
01:33:47.439 --> 01:33:49.039
Never trust a villain.
01:33:49.279 --> 01:33:52.319
And maybe don't split up when you get there.
01:33:52.720 --> 01:33:53.359
Seriously.
01:33:53.600 --> 01:33:55.840
We've seen enough movies to know how that went up.
01:33:58.000 --> 01:34:13.600
Stay red and Radis British Santa Claus the movie 40th anniversary episode goes to.
01:34:19.520 --> 01:34:27.439
Adam Parker Sybin from Mary Britsmith for Indie Christmas and Santa Claus the movie 40th anniversary.
01:34:34.159 --> 01:34:36.000
Wow, what an honor.
01:34:36.239 --> 01:34:47.439
I knew that when I watched Santa Claus the movie over and over again as a little British boy, that one day I'd be recording a special all about the 40th anniversary of this brilliant, chaotic movie.
01:34:47.680 --> 01:34:51.840
And deep down in my British heart, I knew I'd be winning an award for it.
01:34:52.079 --> 01:34:59.760
And now I know it's directed and produced by French men, and Santa and BZ are American men, but I declare it a British classic.
01:34:59.920 --> 01:35:06.960
It's got Dudley Moore and one of the guys from The Young Ones, which is a TV show you might not know if you're not British.
01:35:07.199 --> 01:35:07.680
But Mrs.
01:35:07.840 --> 01:35:09.760
Clause is definitely British.
01:35:10.079 --> 01:35:13.039
Well, I'm gonna go and re-watch Santa Claus the movie.
01:35:13.279 --> 01:35:21.039
And I'm pretty hungry, but I don't really know where I am, and all I can see around me are eggnog milkshakes and some sort of festive nuggets.
01:35:21.279 --> 01:35:26.319
Oh, who do I have to slay around here to get a muck mince pie and some muck mold cider?
01:35:36.399 --> 01:35:47.680
Raditz Cowboy in Snow Gulch goes to Little Number Two.
01:35:53.760 --> 01:35:55.359
Wow, thank you so much.
01:35:55.520 --> 01:35:56.399
This is incredible.
01:35:56.560 --> 01:36:01.359
I never thought riding through Snowy Gulch would earn me a ratty, but here we are.
01:36:01.520 --> 01:36:10.239
I want to thank Bravestar, the Galaxy Rangers, the Totally Rad Christmas gang, and everyone who believed in a cowboy who refuses to dress for the weather.
01:36:10.399 --> 01:36:17.039
And of course, all the folks out there keeping Christmas a little weird and a lot of fun.
01:36:17.359 --> 01:36:24.560
Remember, whether it's snow, sleep, or a holiday showdown, keep your boots on and your spear time.
01:36:24.880 --> 01:36:26.479
Beehaw and Merry Christmas.
01:36:26.640 --> 01:36:31.840
Oh, and I hope Bubblegum Bark doesn't cover this McDonald's in Bubblegum Goo.
01:36:40.000 --> 01:36:45.119
Radis Comic Book Christmas Carol episode goes to the ball.
01:36:49.119 --> 01:36:55.359
Laramie Wells from Moving Panels for one shot of Comic Christmas Carol casting.
01:36:57.039 --> 01:36:57.920
Okay, wow.
01:36:58.000 --> 01:37:05.359
Uh standing here right now in this beautifully decorated 1980s McDonald's, this is exactly how I always imagined winning a technical ratty would feel.
01:37:05.439 --> 01:37:09.600
I mean, the tensile, the lights barely hanging on, the faint smell of fries.
01:37:09.680 --> 01:37:12.000
I mean it it's it's magical, truly magical.
01:37:12.159 --> 01:37:22.319
Uh look, I want to thank Jerry D, the Totally Rad Christmas crew, and the Academy for this honor and for whatever deal you guys struck to get these holiday McNugget sauces, the cranberry orange.
01:37:23.039 --> 01:37:23.600
Incredible.
01:37:23.760 --> 01:37:27.199
I'm not saying it deserved a nomination, but I am saying it was robbed.
01:37:27.359 --> 01:37:31.119
Uh also a quick shout out to the guy I'm pretty sure is Sylvester Challone in the corner booth.
01:37:31.359 --> 01:37:34.159
Sir, thank you for waving and nodding at me earlier.
01:37:34.239 --> 01:37:35.119
That really meant a lot.
01:37:35.279 --> 01:37:42.800
And thank you for everyone for who listens to Moving Panels and this one-shot episode, a comic Christmas Carol casting.
01:37:42.960 --> 01:37:46.239
That episode was all about blending comic book storytelling with Christmas spirit.
01:37:46.319 --> 01:37:47.920
I'm so glad it connected with you guys.
01:37:48.079 --> 01:37:54.079
Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got an eggnog milkshake melting and an after party happening somewhere in the ball pit.
01:37:54.479 --> 01:37:57.359
Thank you, and I'll see you on the other side of the page.
01:38:05.920 --> 01:38:25.039
Radist 80s Christmas wrap-up series, not done by totally rad Christmas, goes to Joel Fulton, the Christmas official auto for remembering the 80s, the year and Christmas, series 1980 to 89.
01:38:27.520 --> 01:38:28.000
Thank you.
01:38:28.479 --> 01:38:29.439
Thank you very much.
01:38:29.600 --> 01:38:31.199
I've always imagined this moment.
01:38:31.279 --> 01:38:34.960
I just didn't picture this stage being next to a McDonald's playground there.
01:38:35.279 --> 01:38:39.600
Leave it to Jerry to find the one McDonald's in the country that still has a playground.
01:38:40.000 --> 01:38:46.720
I want to thank everybody who's supported my channel, people who have left comments about how they missed Christmas and how this is how it used to be.
01:38:46.960 --> 01:38:57.600
You're the reason I get to spend time watching every bad Christmas TV movie, Bob Hope Christmas special, and that depressing Alf Christmas episode calling it Research.
01:38:58.079 --> 01:39:04.000
I want to thank Totally Rad Christmas for the acknowledgement and catering this event with boxes of chicken nuggets.
01:39:04.479 --> 01:39:20.239
And tonight, standing here holding this ratty, surrounded by this Retro McDonald's Christmas decorated neon, the smell of fries, and the screams of the kids trapped in the grimace cage on the playground, really does make this war feel special.
01:39:26.079 --> 01:39:45.439
Radis Christmas 2025 episode goes to Kristen Steering from Holidays After Dark and CJ Belange from Rose Such a Platter for Christmas 2025 Part 3, Naughty and Nights with CJ and Jerry.
01:39:48.239 --> 01:40:05.119
Whoa, I've never been to the 1980s before, you know, being born in 1991 and all, but getting to time travel back to this McDonald's in the 80s while it has all of its awesome vintage Christmas decor up for the sake of the technical rattdies is absolutely incredible.
01:40:05.439 --> 01:40:08.560
Jerry, I just want to say thank you so much for the technical ratty.
01:40:08.800 --> 01:40:16.399
Doing the naughty and nice episode with you and CJ was so much fun and it feels so great to be recognized.
01:40:16.560 --> 01:40:21.279
But I think it's time to go order some chicken nuggets, so thank you again.
01:40:28.000 --> 01:40:29.119
What's going on, Jerry?
01:40:29.199 --> 01:40:31.840
It is CJ from the Roast Such Flatter podcast.
01:40:32.000 --> 01:40:34.079
I yet again have been given another one.
01:40:35.119 --> 01:40:36.960
Probably not shocking to many people.
01:40:37.199 --> 01:40:42.640
Many people are aware of how dope I am, how awesome I am, and how good I make your podcast.
01:40:42.960 --> 01:40:46.000
Today it is for the Rattus Christmas 2025 episode.
01:40:46.159 --> 01:40:49.199
I yet have dominated another year.
01:40:49.439 --> 01:40:56.720
Um I don't have much to say other than thank you to me for doing you a favor.
01:40:57.359 --> 01:41:04.960
Um with that said, uh I I just want to thank you for letting me participate in uh the Raddy Awards helping host.
01:41:05.520 --> 01:41:12.079
Um I also just want to let everybody else out there know that you could also be as good as me if you tried.
01:41:12.319 --> 01:41:13.600
But I don't even try that hard.
01:41:13.680 --> 01:41:15.039
It just comes naturally.
01:41:15.520 --> 01:41:16.239
So yeah.
01:41:16.560 --> 01:41:18.640
Anyways, enough of being humble.
01:41:18.880 --> 01:41:20.000
Thank you, Jerry.
01:41:20.159 --> 01:41:22.560
Thank you, uh Totally Rad Christmas.
01:41:22.720 --> 01:41:45.840
And um thank you, meaning Radis Comic Brothers re-release goes to CM Chuck and Anthony Caruso for General Mills Monster Serials.
01:41:48.720 --> 01:41:51.119
Two years in a row for the same episode.
01:41:51.199 --> 01:41:53.039
It's a new milestone here.
01:41:53.199 --> 01:42:02.239
Uh you know, I I just want to dedicate this to General Mills serial, without whom we could never have done this episode.
01:42:02.319 --> 01:42:05.039
Uh, I look forward to your serial releases every year.
01:42:05.279 --> 01:42:12.079
I do have to say though, screw you guys! Nobody likes Carmela Creeper, everyone wants Fruit Brute back.
01:42:12.239 --> 01:42:14.159
Hashtag JusticeForFruitbru.
01:42:14.720 --> 01:42:19.199
And I'm going to follow up on Anthony's commentary with hashtag JusticeForget Me Mummy.
01:42:19.279 --> 01:42:27.119
You know, the the the two unsung heroes, Fruit Brute, Yummy Mummy, uh, you know, they deserve their own episode to be talked about as well.
01:42:27.279 --> 01:42:37.680
And I I also do want to say uh General Mills, thank you for combining elements of horror and cereal and marshmallows and sweetness, because uh what a perfect combination.
01:42:37.840 --> 01:42:40.960
And those Jim Henson boxes this year were incredible.
01:42:41.119 --> 01:42:49.279
So uh, you know, two uh two episodes uh one episode, two different awards, two different years tagged on the front.
01:42:49.439 --> 01:42:50.239
I'll take it.
01:42:50.399 --> 01:42:56.159
I also want to say, real quick, uh the music's playing me off here, but justice for the creature from the black lagoon.
01:42:56.239 --> 01:43:00.640
We did decades for his own cereal, and instead we get Carmilla Creeper.
01:43:01.279 --> 01:43:03.840
Yes, we want Gilman cereal.
01:43:13.199 --> 01:43:24.479
Radis Technical Raddy host goes to Sean Sotka from Christmas Podcast Podcast.
01:43:24.640 --> 01:43:25.760
Hey, that's me.
01:43:25.920 --> 01:43:27.439
Oh, I didn't think I'd ever win this.
01:43:28.000 --> 01:43:28.319
What?
01:43:28.560 --> 01:43:31.039
What do you what do you mean I'm the only one that's right.
01:43:31.119 --> 01:43:33.359
I'm the only one who's done this, so who else would win that?
01:43:33.920 --> 01:43:36.239
Uh anyways, at least I'm not shut out this year.
01:43:36.479 --> 01:43:40.239
Thanks everybody for listening to the technical raddies here.
01:43:40.319 --> 01:43:45.439
Let's get you back to the main show with Jerry, and I'm gonna go have some more nuggets.
01:43:52.479 --> 01:43:53.279
Totally red.
01:43:53.760 --> 01:43:56.159
And now, here again is Jerry D.
01:44:03.199 --> 01:44:05.920
Welcome back! It's been an eventful night so far.
01:44:06.159 --> 01:44:07.439
Everyone looks amazing.
01:44:07.680 --> 01:44:13.680
I'm here in the audience now checking in with our official Raddies food critic for the evening, little number two himself, my son Andrew.
01:44:13.920 --> 01:44:17.680
Andrew, you were at the Totally Red Christmas Awards for technical achievement last night.
01:44:17.920 --> 01:44:19.920
Also known, of course, as the technical Raddies.
01:44:20.159 --> 01:44:21.760
How was the food there at that McDonald's?
01:44:22.159 --> 01:44:24.000
Well, it was great, obviously.
01:44:24.960 --> 01:44:26.720
What do you think of the catering tonight?
01:44:27.279 --> 01:44:30.159
I think this cookie might be from 1987.
01:44:31.600 --> 01:44:33.119
Yeah, and I'm getting noticed.
01:44:34.239 --> 01:44:35.520
Well, that's where we keep the good stuff.
01:44:38.000 --> 01:44:39.039
Well, that's just the afternoon.
01:44:40.880 --> 01:44:43.920
Yeah, because it's after like it adjusted itself.
01:44:44.239 --> 01:44:44.960
What do you mean?
01:44:45.680 --> 01:44:48.000
It moved like it didn't want to be eaten.
01:44:49.039 --> 01:44:49.279
Okay.
01:44:50.159 --> 01:44:51.600
It winked bad.
01:44:52.399 --> 01:44:52.960
Okay, fine.
01:44:53.119 --> 01:44:53.840
Don't eat the cookies.
01:44:58.319 --> 01:45:00.000
It's fighting back a little.
01:45:00.720 --> 01:45:03.840
Alright, we're gonna leave Andrew to whatever that is.
01:45:04.079 --> 01:45:06.239
This has been your ready snack review.
01:45:07.039 --> 01:45:08.319
The chips are hurting.
01:45:09.359 --> 01:45:10.720
Nobody eats the chips.
01:45:16.399 --> 01:45:19.279
Alright, we got time for one more audience check-in here.
01:45:19.359 --> 01:45:23.039
Uh he's up for the Jerry D award for most appearances from Tis the Podcast.
01:45:23.119 --> 01:45:24.319
It's Anthony Crusoe.
01:45:24.560 --> 01:45:26.319
Anthony, how are you enjoying the show tonight?
01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:29.359
Jerry, I'm having a wonderful time tonight.
01:45:30.079 --> 01:45:33.920
I mean, you seem very relaxed for a man sitting in what is clearly an active haunting.
01:45:35.119 --> 01:45:36.319
The podcast is reverse.
01:45:36.560 --> 01:45:38.960
I do co-host a show with Tom, you know.
01:45:41.199 --> 01:45:41.920
That's fair.
01:45:42.319 --> 01:45:44.640
So nothing about tonight's concerning you.
01:45:45.840 --> 01:45:54.239
The temperature did drop about 15 degrees, the chandelier rotated, and I'm fairly certain somebody whispered into my ear.
01:45:55.039 --> 01:45:56.560
But otherwise, great show.
01:45:57.039 --> 01:45:59.199
Alright, so you're just you're just rolling with it then.
01:46:00.159 --> 01:46:01.520
Have you seen Undertone?
01:46:01.760 --> 01:46:05.439
At this point, I assume every recording will include at least one supernatural element.
01:46:08.159 --> 01:46:10.399
So I've been on enough episodes to know.
01:46:10.720 --> 01:46:13.359
If I acknowledge it, it'll get worse.
01:46:13.840 --> 01:46:14.399
Totally.
01:46:14.720 --> 01:46:16.560
It's pretty true for sure.
01:46:20.239 --> 01:46:22.479
Was that someone sitting next to you?
01:46:25.199 --> 01:46:25.439
Smart.
01:46:26.000 --> 01:46:26.239
Smart.
01:46:26.960 --> 01:46:31.840
If it introduces herself, I'll be polite, and hopefully it is a uh buzz-me woman.
01:46:32.880 --> 01:46:33.439
Of course.
01:46:33.520 --> 01:46:36.319
I mean that'd be that's always the that's the dream, right?
01:46:36.560 --> 01:46:39.279
I am not making eye contact though until I know for sure.
01:46:39.680 --> 01:46:42.640
This is why Anthony has 43 appearances, guys.
01:46:42.960 --> 01:46:43.760
Experience.
01:46:44.079 --> 01:46:45.119
Professionalism.
01:46:45.439 --> 01:46:46.399
Survival.
01:46:46.800 --> 01:46:48.079
Recognize me.
01:46:48.880 --> 01:46:52.640
Alright, Anthony Caruso, everybody, handling this better than all of us.
01:46:52.960 --> 01:46:54.640
I'm a horror guy, what can I say?
01:46:54.800 --> 01:46:59.439
But if you ask for a category, let us not do that.
01:47:00.159 --> 01:47:03.680
Here to present the award for Radus Miscellaneous Episode.
01:47:03.760 --> 01:47:06.560
It's Jerry D and CJ Bell and J.
01:47:08.560 --> 01:47:12.319
This category is where the Academy admits we didn't know where else to put it.
01:47:12.880 --> 01:47:14.399
Or we are in danger.
01:47:14.640 --> 01:47:16.640
But we remain committed to chaos.
01:47:17.279 --> 01:47:18.159
Anything goes.
01:47:18.319 --> 01:47:20.000
Dogs and cats living together.
01:47:20.159 --> 01:47:21.520
That's hysteria.
01:47:21.840 --> 01:47:27.840
The nominees for Radus Miscellaneous Episodes are Jeff Lofton for Celtics vs.
01:47:27.920 --> 01:47:29.920
Knicks Christmas Day 1985.
01:47:30.479 --> 01:47:34.960
And it was their fourth straight road loss, too, which is really interesting to think about, right?
01:47:35.119 --> 01:47:44.159
Because they were it was such a dominant season to lose four straight road games is like nuts because that they only lost like less than 15 games in the regular season.
01:47:44.399 --> 01:47:46.000
Right at 15 games in the regular season.
01:47:46.880 --> 01:47:51.520
Charlie Agu and Jeremy Phelps from 80s Christmas Coloring Books.
01:47:51.760 --> 01:47:55.199
Yep, not even not even a dot on it to make you think it's a chocolate chip.
01:47:55.359 --> 01:47:56.640
It's just you got a wafer.
01:47:56.800 --> 01:47:57.680
Here's a Nilla wafer.
01:47:57.840 --> 01:47:58.159
Go away.
01:47:58.640 --> 01:48:01.680
You can add your own, add your own decorations to it.
01:48:01.760 --> 01:48:02.640
Is it a sugar cookie?
01:48:02.720 --> 01:48:03.520
Is it a chocolate chip?
01:48:04.319 --> 01:48:06.319
Yes, it's a it's totally a sugar cookie, I guess.
01:48:06.560 --> 01:48:07.039
It's up to you.
01:48:07.359 --> 01:48:10.640
You can put your own little black dots to make your own chocolate chip.
01:48:10.800 --> 01:48:11.279
You never know.
01:48:12.640 --> 01:48:14.000
Activity page, all in one.
01:48:14.079 --> 01:48:14.239
Yeah.
01:48:14.399 --> 01:48:15.119
There you go.
01:48:15.359 --> 01:48:19.439
Anthony and Vinny Brasinski from Hallmark Dream Book 1989.
01:48:19.920 --> 01:48:22.880
The newsletter comes in the box they send every year.
01:48:23.199 --> 01:48:23.680
Oh, okay.
01:48:24.720 --> 01:48:30.319
Sign up for the, you know, pay your 60 bucks a year to keep your what's it called?
01:48:30.720 --> 01:48:31.279
KOC?
01:48:31.600 --> 01:48:32.159
Keep sake.
01:48:32.640 --> 01:48:44.560
Which which I stopped doing that because it only gave you access a week early, and all the ornaments are still for that 60 bucks out, and like half the stuff they send, like I don't do the mini ornaments, so like doing anything with them.
01:48:44.640 --> 01:48:52.000
So yeah, well I I signed up three years ago, they had a really good box, and then they gave you the mini tree, and I was like mini ornaments and stuff.
01:48:52.159 --> 01:48:52.960
It's okay.
01:48:53.199 --> 01:48:55.920
Um but they changed it though, Anthony.
01:48:56.000 --> 01:48:57.199
It's only a day before.
01:48:57.359 --> 01:49:04.159
Like, so yeah, so it's not even worth it, that Jeff Lofton for International Santa Claus Collection.
01:49:04.479 --> 01:49:09.760
Yeah, so um for those if for I mean I'm sure if you're listening, you know, but you know, Sinterklaas is just from St.
01:49:09.920 --> 01:49:15.199
Nicholas, and so it's uh this one's you know the typical white clerical robes.
01:49:15.279 --> 01:49:18.800
Um I think this is the one on the horse, if I'm not mistaken.
01:49:19.039 --> 01:49:20.159
I believe you're correct, yeah.
01:49:20.640 --> 01:49:20.800
Yep.
01:49:20.880 --> 01:49:25.760
And he has so this is also a really cool one because it's a two-part, it's two pieces in the box.
01:49:25.920 --> 01:49:32.640
And so the part of his staff comes off, and uh at least in mine it does, it like and it reattaches when you go back to it.
01:49:32.880 --> 01:49:35.600
There's a couple of them that have that um for for safekeeping.
01:49:36.000 --> 01:49:40.239
Michael May and Chad Young for Sears Christmas Wish Book 1985.
01:49:41.199 --> 01:49:45.359
Speaking of pleats, I'm looking at the uh the Cheryl Teagues collection on page 79.
01:49:46.000 --> 01:49:48.720
Oh, she was uh Oh yeah.
01:49:48.960 --> 01:49:50.000
Oh, okay.
01:49:50.239 --> 01:49:54.640
She had her whole line at Sears back in the day, but her pants are all pleated that way.
01:49:55.119 --> 01:49:59.279
Oh these women look like Dave Beyond what a dynasty.
01:50:00.000 --> 01:50:02.000
Yes, yes, or like Falcon Crest.
01:50:02.640 --> 01:50:03.039
Yeah.
01:50:03.680 --> 01:50:07.119
This is very difficult to look at.
01:50:07.439 --> 01:50:10.880
Nicholas Pepin and Vinny Brzezinski for Kmart.
01:50:11.199 --> 01:50:17.279
So I was trying to remember, like, so when we went the hills, there was always the big um icy and popcorn thing.
01:50:17.359 --> 01:50:18.560
Did Kmart have that too?
01:50:18.720 --> 01:50:19.279
Do you guys remember?
01:50:20.239 --> 01:50:24.560
I do remember the Kmart's I went to had like a little like snack bar.
01:50:26.159 --> 01:50:27.840
Kind of a like a diner counter.
01:50:28.000 --> 01:50:43.760
Not with like not like a full diner with like a menu, but like, you know, just like your basic, like, we can put this 15-year-old in charge of a fry cook, you know, or or a microwave without too much risk of bodily harm.
01:50:44.079 --> 01:50:51.760
And the winner is Michael May and Chad Young.
01:50:52.000 --> 01:50:54.640
This is Michael May's first award tonight.
01:50:54.800 --> 01:50:57.680
This is Chad Young's second award tonight.
01:50:58.720 --> 01:50:59.680
Okay, wow.
01:50:59.840 --> 01:51:02.000
I'm uh I'm sorry to have to phone the speech in.
01:51:02.079 --> 01:51:14.159
I was on my way to the stage from the green room, and this beautiful lady in white said I was supposed to follow her, so she led me down a side hall and into another room, but when I came in here, she wasn't here, and the door closed behind me and now it's locked.
01:51:14.239 --> 01:51:16.399
So I'm not I don't know what's really going on.
01:51:16.560 --> 01:51:18.720
Um Jerry, are you sure this place is cool?
01:51:18.960 --> 01:51:21.039
I'm starting to think that might not have been a human woman.
01:51:21.439 --> 01:51:22.640
Like somebody die in here?
01:51:23.039 --> 01:51:26.000
Anyway, thank you so much to the Raddy Academy for this honor.
01:51:26.239 --> 01:51:32.560
The Witch Book episode was my first time being on Totally Rad Christmas, and I couldn't have asked for a better partner for that than Chad Young.
01:51:32.640 --> 01:51:33.439
So thank you, Chad.
01:51:33.520 --> 01:51:35.760
You made it so easy for me to ease into the show.
01:51:36.000 --> 01:51:37.279
And of course, thank you, Jerry.
01:51:37.520 --> 01:51:38.399
You're a great host.
01:51:38.479 --> 01:51:42.479
And I've had such a ball, not only on the Wishbook episode, but a few times since then.
01:51:42.640 --> 01:51:45.840
You're so welcoming and easygoing, and I can't wait to come back again.
01:51:46.079 --> 01:51:48.720
I want to thank Sears for making the wishbook in the first place.
01:51:48.880 --> 01:51:53.920
Wishing for all those cool toys was a huge part of my childhood, and I'm sorry you went bankrupt.
01:51:54.319 --> 01:51:58.720
And finally, thank you to my brothers who helped me turn the wishbook into a competitive game of I Get That.
01:51:59.039 --> 01:52:02.319
I love you guys, and I wouldn't be here accepting this award without you.
01:52:02.720 --> 01:52:04.479
Now, can somebody come get me out of this room?
01:52:04.560 --> 01:52:05.760
It's dark in here.
01:52:06.079 --> 01:52:06.880
Please.
01:52:13.039 --> 01:52:20.560
Thank you, everybody, for voting for us, and thank you, Michael, for just being an absolutely rad buddy in this podcast.
01:52:20.640 --> 01:52:22.960
And thank you, Jerry, for inviting us.
01:52:30.800 --> 01:52:32.239
Okay, mod rules.
01:52:32.880 --> 01:52:35.199
Now the walls are doing retail nostalgia?
01:52:35.920 --> 01:52:38.079
Most on-brand hunting we've ever had.
01:52:38.640 --> 01:52:40.880
Dudes and dudettes, it's Jerry D.
01:52:45.680 --> 01:52:46.960
Alright now, let's see.
01:52:47.039 --> 01:52:48.880
Let's get one more audience check in here.
01:52:48.960 --> 01:52:50.159
Uh, how about yeah, Jeff.
01:52:50.239 --> 01:52:52.399
Jeff Lofton from the Lost Christmas podcast.
01:52:52.560 --> 01:52:54.239
Jeff, how are you enjoying the show tonight?
01:52:54.560 --> 01:52:55.680
Jerry, I'll be honest.
01:52:55.760 --> 01:52:59.680
This is starting to feel less like an award show and more like the first act of a horror movie.
01:53:00.000 --> 01:53:02.000
Okay, but like a fun horror movie, right?
01:53:02.319 --> 01:53:03.199
Like a scary movie?
01:53:03.439 --> 01:53:04.560
Well, that depends, Jerry.
01:53:04.800 --> 01:53:05.439
On what?
01:53:05.840 --> 01:53:11.680
The lights are flickering, the portraits are whispering, and I'm pretty sure no one ever actually invited us here.
01:53:12.079 --> 01:53:14.479
I mean, that all just sounds like ambiance to me.
01:53:14.800 --> 01:53:18.000
That's what they say right before something attaches itself to someone, Jerry.
01:53:18.239 --> 01:53:20.239
Okay, we're not using the word attaches.
01:53:22.239 --> 01:53:25.279
Also, has anyone checked how old this house actually is?
01:53:25.600 --> 01:53:25.840
No.
01:53:26.319 --> 01:53:29.279
Because this feels like unfinished business territory.
01:53:31.039 --> 01:53:31.680
Yeah.
01:53:32.159 --> 01:53:34.560
Definitely unfinished business.
01:53:35.119 --> 01:53:39.359
Okay, well, uh, Jeff from the Lost Christmas podcast, everyone, keeping things light.
01:53:39.680 --> 01:53:41.119
I give it 10 minutes.
01:53:41.439 --> 01:53:43.119
Uh, we're gonna go back to the stage now.
01:53:43.359 --> 01:53:43.840
Immediately.
01:53:44.159 --> 01:53:45.439
Do the announcer, please.
01:53:46.079 --> 01:53:50.880
Presenting award the last year for a movie novelization episode.
01:53:51.039 --> 01:53:53.600
It's Mike Westball and Tom Crow.
01:53:57.920 --> 01:53:59.039
Novelization.
01:53:59.439 --> 01:54:03.439
Where a two-hour film becomes 187 pages of air monologue.
01:54:04.079 --> 01:54:06.000
Sometimes revealing motivations.
01:54:06.800 --> 01:54:09.119
Sometimes revealing confusion.
01:54:09.920 --> 01:54:15.520
And sometimes revealing that the author watched the movie once and just filled in the rest.
01:54:16.000 --> 01:54:16.640
Boldly.
01:54:17.279 --> 01:54:18.399
Very boldly.
01:54:18.880 --> 01:54:22.239
Before streaming, before VCRs were everywhere.
01:54:22.800 --> 01:54:26.800
Novelizations helped us relive the movie we loved so much.
01:54:27.359 --> 01:54:32.239
Or in some cases, helped us experience scenes that were never actually in the movie.
01:54:32.800 --> 01:54:36.720
Yeah, uh, extended universe before that was a phrase.
01:54:37.359 --> 01:54:39.359
Or before anyone could fact-check it.
01:54:39.840 --> 01:54:41.119
We just gotta accept it.
01:54:42.000 --> 01:54:44.960
Sure, Gremlins probably had internal thoughts.
01:54:45.119 --> 01:54:46.079
That tracks.
01:54:46.319 --> 01:54:48.319
Oh, profound ones, I'm sure.
01:54:48.880 --> 01:55:01.199
Now the nominees for the Rattus original script movie novelization episode are From Gremlins, the original script and novelization with Ryan Estrada.
01:55:01.600 --> 01:55:04.079
Yeah, that uh that's the bar that she works at.
01:55:04.159 --> 01:55:05.600
And so there is a character playing.
01:55:05.920 --> 01:55:14.239
That character is so he's a big character in the um in this movie, in that he's with again, he's with them for the entire final fight.
01:55:14.399 --> 01:55:16.079
Uh, that's where they they hide out.
01:55:16.239 --> 01:55:33.039
He's actually the one that delivers the the Santa Claus and the chimney monologue that they just they got rid of the character, but like, we can't, we gotta keep that monologue that you know makes it so that the parents can't show their children this movie because they can't hear the end sentence of what she figured out.
01:55:33.520 --> 01:55:37.840
From Santa Claus, the movie novelization packs Holly.
01:55:39.119 --> 01:55:39.920
Also, it's kind of weird.
01:55:40.239 --> 01:55:41.359
I love the ancient one.
01:55:41.439 --> 01:55:46.560
And uh, I mean the idea that there's an ancient one, so it's like, what like was he ancient when they became mortal?
01:55:46.640 --> 01:55:52.000
Like when they became immortal, like why if they're immortal, is he super old and no one else is super old?
01:55:52.159 --> 01:55:53.600
It's just that's kind of crazy.
01:55:53.840 --> 01:56:09.279
But then uh in the movie, if you if you just watch it, like when you when Santa meets the ancient one for the first time, it's like Christmas Eve, he's about to go out, so it's like, and he's been there for years, he hasn't met Ancient One yet, and like there for a year, and like he's just now coming to meet him.
01:56:09.359 --> 01:56:11.039
And I just I wanted the book to explain this.
01:56:11.199 --> 01:56:11.680
Like, what happened?
01:56:11.840 --> 01:56:13.680
I felt like there was something missing there.
01:56:14.000 --> 01:56:22.399
And the winner is my buddy Pax Holly for Santa Claus the movie novel.
01:56:23.920 --> 01:56:27.279
This is Paxton Holly's first win tonight.
01:56:29.359 --> 01:56:33.439
Hello everyone, this is Pax, the host of iRead Movies, and I what?
01:56:33.920 --> 01:56:34.319
What?
01:56:35.039 --> 01:56:38.479
Excuse- Excuse me, what did you what did you say?
01:56:38.640 --> 01:56:43.359
I won the Ratty for Raddist original script movie novelization episode?
01:56:43.920 --> 01:56:45.199
Are you are you kidding me?
01:56:45.520 --> 01:56:46.079
You're joking.
01:56:46.239 --> 01:56:46.880
Right, stop it.
01:56:47.119 --> 01:56:48.720
Stop! Really?
01:56:49.520 --> 01:56:50.720
Well, crap.
01:56:50.960 --> 01:56:53.119
I am not uh prepared for that.
01:56:53.359 --> 01:56:55.039
So Huh.
01:56:55.279 --> 01:56:58.560
Okay, well, thank you to everyone who gave me this award.
01:56:58.720 --> 01:57:00.159
Obviously, I'm humbled.
01:57:00.319 --> 01:57:05.680
Um, I would say I don't do it for the accolades, you know, stuff like the rattys and awards.
01:57:05.920 --> 01:57:06.800
But who are we kidding?
01:57:06.960 --> 01:57:12.560
Of course I do it for the recognition, so thank you for feeding the beast that is my own self-importance and ego.
01:57:12.800 --> 01:57:15.199
I'd also like to wait, what was that?
01:57:15.680 --> 01:57:16.560
Did you hear what is it?
01:57:16.720 --> 01:57:17.199
Did you hear that?
01:57:17.279 --> 01:57:17.840
What was that noise?
01:57:18.720 --> 01:57:22.000
Like it sounded it sounded like a moaning and maybe some chain rattling.
01:57:22.079 --> 01:57:23.119
Did you hear did you hear that?
01:57:23.359 --> 01:57:24.399
Is this place haunted?
01:57:24.800 --> 01:57:27.359
Did you bring me to a haunted castle to get this award?
01:57:28.079 --> 01:57:31.520
Like I what was that?
01:57:40.239 --> 01:57:45.680
The sixth annual Totally Rad Christmas Awards will be back after these messages.
01:57:48.479 --> 01:57:52.560
This Christmas, Taco Bell would like to propose a traditional holiday feast.
01:57:52.960 --> 01:57:54.399
Alright, guys, here's the library.
01:57:54.560 --> 01:57:56.880
Maybe we can find, I don't know, something.
01:57:59.600 --> 01:58:04.079
Whoa! That book flew off the shelf and opened to this page.
01:58:04.319 --> 01:58:07.359
I think maybe the house wants us to read this.
01:58:07.840 --> 01:58:10.960
Maybe it doesn't like this ghost dude hanging around.
01:58:11.520 --> 01:58:16.720
Okay, this is most definitely intentional, haunting behavior, I'm convinced.
01:58:17.119 --> 01:58:19.199
Alright, let's see what we're dealing with here.
01:58:20.319 --> 01:58:21.680
Reginald P.
01:58:22.000 --> 01:58:26.720
Hawthrone, an industrialist, former mayor of the city?
01:58:27.039 --> 01:58:27.840
Mayor?
01:58:28.560 --> 01:58:30.720
That feels like an escalation.
01:58:31.359 --> 01:58:36.399
Advocate for civic improvements and social efficiency programs?
01:58:36.800 --> 01:58:39.680
That phrasing is doing a lot of work.
01:58:40.640 --> 01:58:42.960
Alright, here's the dark part.
01:58:43.520 --> 01:58:55.680
Rumors circulated that Hawthorne performed a lot of unnecessary surgeries and conducted experiments on the poor and imprisoned beneath City Hall, attempting to produce obedient citizens free of independent thought.
01:58:56.079 --> 01:58:57.439
Like mind control?
01:58:58.319 --> 01:58:59.600
Mind removal.
01:59:00.239 --> 01:59:02.640
It says he called them perfect servants.
01:59:04.159 --> 01:59:07.199
Okay, that's officially like big bad villain behavior.
01:59:07.840 --> 01:59:09.439
Wait, wait, wait, listen to this, guys.
01:59:09.760 --> 01:59:16.319
Hawthorne died suddenly during the winter gala while delivering a speech announcing the expansion of his civic program.
01:59:19.359 --> 01:59:21.680
So the haunting started there.
01:59:22.560 --> 01:59:24.399
Jerry, can you do me a big favor?
01:59:24.640 --> 01:59:27.920
And next time you book a venue, don't do it on the cheap, please.
01:59:28.079 --> 01:59:28.800
Thank you.
01:59:30.000 --> 01:59:31.279
Alright, listen.
01:59:31.840 --> 01:59:38.720
Witnesses reported Hawthorne declaring he would return to reclaim his office and finish what he began.
01:59:39.680 --> 01:59:41.840
So be good for goodness sake.
01:59:41.920 --> 01:59:42.960
Whoa! Digness!
01:59:43.279 --> 01:59:45.359
Somebody crap, there was a prophecy.
01:59:45.520 --> 01:59:50.479
Just before he finally croaked, his last words were fame is but a door, applause is but a window.
01:59:50.640 --> 01:59:52.239
I'll be back to finish my toast.
01:59:52.479 --> 01:59:53.039
Huh?
01:59:53.520 --> 01:59:57.520
We are dealing with a 19th-century ghost dictator.
01:59:57.840 --> 01:59:59.680
Who wants his city back.
02:00:00.159 --> 02:00:01.760
And possibly an arm.
02:00:02.319 --> 02:00:04.479
Yeah, we are not letting that happen.
02:00:04.720 --> 02:00:06.399
Oh man, commercial breaks over.
02:00:06.479 --> 02:00:07.520
Alright, we continue.
02:00:07.600 --> 02:00:08.319
Let me get back out there.
02:00:13.920 --> 02:00:18.079
Welcome back to the sixth annual Totally Rad Christmas Awards.
02:00:18.239 --> 02:00:23.359
Presenting the award for Radis Santa Claus, the movie 40th anniversary episode.
02:00:23.520 --> 02:00:24.720
It's Jerry D.
02:00:33.760 --> 02:00:39.520
The next category celebrates a magical film so aggressively 80s it needed its own anniversary category.
02:00:39.680 --> 02:00:47.600
I'm talking peak 80s, corporate intrigue, magical candy canes, and John Lithgow just absolutely committing to whatever that performance was.
02:00:48.000 --> 02:00:49.359
Greatness is what it was.
02:00:49.520 --> 02:00:51.680
It's a movie that said, What if Santa?
02:00:51.920 --> 02:00:53.439
But also business.
02:00:55.039 --> 02:00:56.479
And somehow it works.
02:00:56.720 --> 02:01:01.520
If you've ever tried to explain this movie to someone who hasn't seen it, you sound completely unhinged.
02:01:01.760 --> 02:01:10.880
The nominees for Radis Santa Claus the Movie 40th Anniversary episode are From Santa Claus the Movie, the score and soundtrack, Robert Nicholas.
02:01:11.199 --> 02:01:32.319
Yeah, I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that uh that when he got a start uh in the whole industry, uh also moving up the whole studio way, he was one of those rare composers that knew how to develop pop hits as well as uh movie scores, considering that even the uh the Peter Gunn theme actually was a uh certified hit, right?
02:01:32.560 --> 02:01:36.319
Which is something you almost never see, uh especially out of that time period.
02:01:36.640 --> 02:01:40.079
From Santa Claus the movie, the novelization, Pax Holly.
02:01:40.319 --> 02:01:45.119
Yeah, and one thing This is one thing I think the book does better than the movie.
02:01:45.279 --> 02:01:59.760
Like the movie In the movie, Patch is like this impetuous kind of creative genius kind of a guy, and sometimes that makes him uh a little too like he creates these great ideas, but then sometimes he rushes through it to kind of get done, and then that becomes his issue.
02:01:59.920 --> 02:02:06.319
Um the book is less, he's less impetuous, like he he's super creative and he create creates these things.
02:02:06.399 --> 02:02:08.720
And in the book, Santa implements a lot of them.
02:02:08.800 --> 02:02:13.199
Like a lot of the stuff we see in the movie is was actually in the book done by Patch.
02:02:13.600 --> 02:02:20.880
And the winner is Once again it's Pax Hawley for Santa Claus the Movie, the novelization.
02:02:22.000 --> 02:02:25.199
This is Paxton Holly's second win tonight.
02:02:26.399 --> 02:02:29.520
Well, Raddies, we meet again.
02:02:29.840 --> 02:02:33.760
Rattist Santa Claus the Movie 40th anniversary episode.
02:02:34.319 --> 02:02:38.399
At this point, I feel like Michael Jordan winning his sixth NBA championship.
02:02:38.479 --> 02:02:40.319
I mean, where else can I go at this point?
02:02:40.479 --> 02:02:44.079
I'm up here, up on the mountaintop, looking down on all you people.
02:02:44.399 --> 02:02:45.680
How's the weather down there?
02:02:46.880 --> 02:02:47.760
How's the weather down?
02:02:48.000 --> 02:02:48.399
You get it?
02:02:48.800 --> 02:02:50.159
Because I'm looking down on you?
02:02:50.800 --> 02:02:51.680
Because I'm on the mountaintop.
02:02:52.000 --> 02:02:52.319
Never mind.
02:02:52.479 --> 02:02:53.359
Anyway, never mind.
02:02:53.439 --> 02:02:56.960
Uh the list of people to thank for this award is long.
02:02:57.199 --> 02:02:58.880
So I should probably wait.
02:03:01.439 --> 02:03:02.319
Did you hear the noise?
02:03:02.399 --> 02:03:04.800
The moaning with the chain again.
02:03:04.960 --> 02:03:06.880
Like I you can't hear that?
02:03:07.039 --> 02:03:08.079
Nope, that's it.
02:03:08.159 --> 02:03:08.720
I'm done.
02:03:08.880 --> 02:03:09.279
Bye.
02:03:09.359 --> 02:03:10.399
I'm getting out of here.
02:03:10.560 --> 02:03:11.199
Bye.
02:03:18.640 --> 02:03:21.680
An anniversary deserves a proper toast.
02:03:22.000 --> 02:03:24.079
Well, get to your toast, dude.
02:03:25.199 --> 02:03:27.680
With order, with dignity.
02:03:28.079 --> 02:03:30.239
Okay, you're like really big on dignity?
02:03:30.319 --> 02:03:33.520
We're more of a casual celebration operation here.
02:03:33.920 --> 02:03:37.199
This is a formal occasion, do as I command.
02:03:37.680 --> 02:03:39.279
I mean, we're doing our best.
02:03:39.760 --> 02:03:46.000
Here to present the award for Rattus guaranteed ratty-winning episode with Tim Babb and Mike Westfall.
02:03:46.079 --> 02:03:49.279
It's CJ Bellinger and Mike Westfall.
02:03:56.720 --> 02:03:58.720
This category assumes quite a bit.
02:03:59.439 --> 02:04:02.560
Just being on a podcast with you and Tim guarantees a ratty.
02:04:03.199 --> 02:04:06.640
I mean, it's not arrogance if it's statistical, right?
02:04:08.079 --> 02:04:08.880
I guess.
02:04:09.039 --> 02:04:12.960
It's like being on an episode with me guarantees it's gonna be dope.
02:04:13.199 --> 02:04:14.640
Yeah, you get it.
02:04:15.039 --> 02:04:26.159
The nominees for Radis Guaranteed Ratty winning episode with Tim Babb and Mike Westfall are Mike Westfall and Tim Babb for the all-new Mickey Mouse Club Christmas special.
02:04:26.800 --> 02:04:30.159
I mean, in fairness, no one's gonna sit around and let you hear that.
02:04:31.840 --> 02:04:33.600
They were setting her up for failure.
02:04:33.840 --> 02:04:34.720
Oh no, yeah.
02:04:34.880 --> 02:04:35.039
Yeah.
02:04:35.199 --> 02:04:40.159
No, as soon as you hear twice the night before Christmas, you're like, okay, you're gonna say this whole thing, I'm gone.
02:04:40.399 --> 02:04:40.640
Yeah.
02:04:40.880 --> 02:04:42.399
I'm like, I know how long this poem is.
02:04:42.479 --> 02:04:43.039
I'm out.
02:04:43.279 --> 02:04:43.520
Yeah.
02:04:44.159 --> 02:04:44.800
That's right.
02:04:45.439 --> 02:04:51.920
I have never experienced the joy of being a costumed character at the mall, but it looks about this fun.
02:04:52.399 --> 02:04:52.960
I have.
02:04:53.199 --> 02:04:53.680
Have you?
02:04:53.760 --> 02:04:53.920
Really?
02:04:54.239 --> 02:04:54.720
Really not.
02:04:54.800 --> 02:04:57.520
I was Westy the Westfield kangaroo for a day.
02:04:58.640 --> 02:05:07.039
Oh Tim Babb, Mike Westfall, and Caleb Cody for Weird Owl Christmas at Ground Zero.
02:05:07.439 --> 02:05:09.520
That was I remember looking it up and it was in the 90s.
02:05:10.720 --> 02:05:12.000
Because that was on Bad Hair Day.
02:05:12.079 --> 02:05:12.399
That was on B side.
02:05:13.439 --> 02:05:16.159
Yeah, it was a B-side for Amish Paradise.
02:05:17.359 --> 02:05:23.600
But the but the version on the Amish Paradise single was like an extra gory version.
02:05:23.920 --> 02:05:24.560
Oh my.
02:05:46.239 --> 02:05:47.840
Sorry, I almost didn't make it to the stage.
02:05:47.920 --> 02:05:49.840
I think I slipped in some ectoplasm.
02:05:49.920 --> 02:05:53.600
Can we get a Ghostbuster to do some cleanup on Isle backstage?
02:05:53.840 --> 02:05:58.319
Anyway, uh, I thought it best to accept this award through song.
02:05:58.560 --> 02:06:01.439
Who's the winner of the award that's made for you and me?
02:06:01.680 --> 02:06:04.720
T-I-M-A-N-D-M-I-K-N-E.
02:06:05.439 --> 02:06:10.880
Seriously, this is such an honor to win this award, but I have to share it with my fellow nominees, Tim and Mike.
02:06:11.119 --> 02:06:16.239
You guys are just as deserving to stand up here, and half of this belongs to you.
02:06:16.960 --> 02:06:17.840
Literally.
02:06:20.800 --> 02:06:25.920
Oh, gee, this is so unexpected to win an award in a category with my name in it.
02:06:26.079 --> 02:06:26.720
Thanks, y'all.
02:06:26.800 --> 02:06:30.640
I'm gonna hollow out this one and drink from it like a tiny Stanley Cup.
02:06:59.840 --> 02:07:02.479
Okay, so the house actually is haunted.
02:07:02.640 --> 02:07:04.239
I didn't believe it, but it's haunted.
02:07:04.319 --> 02:07:06.319
I mean look, there's Reginald Pop Ork.
02:07:06.880 --> 02:07:09.600
Do you at last understand my need?
02:07:10.319 --> 02:07:11.680
You want the flaws?
02:07:12.560 --> 02:07:14.319
Oh, obedience.
02:07:14.960 --> 02:07:16.800
This city wants chaos.
02:07:17.119 --> 02:07:18.079
I brought.
02:07:19.439 --> 02:07:22.079
So experiments on your own people, dude?
02:07:22.560 --> 02:07:24.960
Progress demands sacrifice.
02:07:25.199 --> 02:07:27.600
That is a terrible campaign, Pokebud.
02:07:28.479 --> 02:07:30.399
Tonight the ball returns.
02:07:30.640 --> 02:07:32.800
The city shall remember it's red.
02:07:34.720 --> 02:07:37.119
And you shall announce my uncommon.
02:07:38.800 --> 02:07:40.079
You know, I'm a voter.
02:07:40.239 --> 02:07:42.640
Aren't you supposed to lie to me and kiss my butt?
02:07:44.159 --> 02:07:45.119
Totally red.
02:07:45.600 --> 02:07:49.760

Alright, this next category celebrates one of the most important cultural traditions of the 1980s.
02:08:04.000 --> 02:08:06.880
Over-the-top impressions! Exactly.
02:08:07.039 --> 02:08:10.800
The kind where someone commits so hard to the bit that you just sit there thinking.
02:08:11.119 --> 02:08:14.239
Oh no, they really went for it and failed.
02:08:17.680 --> 02:08:19.920
And sometimes you're impressed.
02:08:20.319 --> 02:08:22.399
Sometimes you're confused.
02:08:22.640 --> 02:08:28.079
And sometimes you just lean back and say, Gag me with a spoon with a spoon.
02:08:28.960 --> 02:08:39.119
The nominees for Radis Gag Me with a Spoon impression are from 1985, Walt Disney World, Very Merry Christmas Parade, Tim Babb and Charlie Agu.
02:08:39.840 --> 02:08:42.159
Okay, so I'm gonna have to go with a Regis moment.
02:08:42.399 --> 02:08:48.560
I don't know if anyone else is, but I'm gonna have to go to one with the with the with the little kid where he goes, Um, my my parents said I I said Maryland.
02:08:48.640 --> 02:08:50.159
And he goes, Ah, you're really from Tennessee.
02:08:50.239 --> 02:08:51.119
This kid's all confused.
02:08:51.199 --> 02:08:58.000
And he like blows my regis.
02:08:59.520 --> 02:09:00.800
That was great.
02:09:01.680 --> 02:09:04.159
Mine is technically a Regis moment.
02:09:04.319 --> 02:09:08.000
Uh I mentioned it earlier, so uh So tell me about these dolphins.
02:09:08.079 --> 02:09:11.439
They're members of the team, and we spend a lot of time in their environment.
02:09:16.319 --> 02:09:18.800
From Bloodbeat, Jeff and Jeff.
02:09:19.119 --> 02:09:27.359
And now, Mom says, But it can't be you! You wouldn't harm me and my children, would you?
02:09:29.199 --> 02:09:31.039
And I shall destroy you.
02:09:33.600 --> 02:09:34.479
Jeff, that was too good.
02:09:34.640 --> 02:09:35.680
That was too good an impression.
02:09:35.760 --> 02:09:39.359
I think I think you've been watching I think you've been blood beating without me.
02:09:41.600 --> 02:09:43.279
You know, I mean that's the thing.
02:09:43.439 --> 02:09:44.720
Honestly, I love this movie.
02:09:44.800 --> 02:09:50.079
I don't think there's a thing that I that I don't like about this movie for me to do a quote about.
02:09:50.399 --> 02:09:52.079
Well, it's mystical boinging.
02:09:52.159 --> 02:09:54.319
Um do the mystical boinging sound.
02:09:54.399 --> 02:09:54.880
Let's try it.
02:09:55.840 --> 02:09:57.439
Something like that, I think.
02:09:59.600 --> 02:10:03.039
From DuckTales Ducky Horror Picture Show, Joe Martinez.
02:10:03.680 --> 02:10:09.840
They got the big fat pig on the outside, and he's like, wait, I just have to call my mummy.
02:10:10.640 --> 02:10:14.319
He's like, good, and now you can tell your mummy goodbye.
02:10:14.560 --> 02:10:20.000
From remote control, Ken Kessler, Scott Leopold, and Vinny Brzezinski.
02:10:20.479 --> 02:10:21.359
Squiggy.
02:10:25.600 --> 02:10:28.640
41 days and 40 nights.
02:10:31.840 --> 02:10:34.720
Mine would have to be in again.
02:10:34.880 --> 02:10:40.640
It's I don't know if it was done, you know, it wasn't done on purpose, but how do you not know the dire straits video?
02:10:40.880 --> 02:10:45.840
Like, here let me show you the easiest one here, the one of the most iconic videos of all time.
02:10:46.000 --> 02:10:47.760
And you say Bruce Brinkley.
02:10:49.680 --> 02:10:58.159
And the winner is the Remote Control guys, Ken Scott and Vinny.
02:11:00.880 --> 02:11:04.159
This is this ensemble's first win tonight.
02:11:05.920 --> 02:11:08.319
Hi, this is Ken from The Sounds of Christmas.
02:11:08.399 --> 02:11:27.760
I'm very honored to have been a part of the Remote Control Christmas episode on Jerry's Totally Rad Christmas podcast, and honored all the more now that that episode has been voted Raddest Gag Me with the Spoon impression, though I'm pretty sure that the actual winning impression was done by somebody else, as mine are usually not that great.
02:11:28.000 --> 02:11:33.600
I want to thank everybody that was also on that episode and all of you that voted for it.
02:11:33.920 --> 02:11:45.520
Thank you, Scott, from the Holly Jolly X Masu podcast, and Vinny from Huey and Brax for joining me on this entertaining look back at what was at the time my favorite game show.
02:11:45.760 --> 02:11:56.079
I also want to thank Ken Ober and Colin Quinn for making the remote control show so much fun, and you may find that hard to believe if you weren't there, but it really was fun.
02:11:56.479 --> 02:11:59.600
And lastly, and most importantly, Jerry D.
02:12:00.399 --> 02:12:08.640
Thanks so much for inviting me on your Totally Rad Christmas podcast and for doing so much to keep the spirit of Christmas alive all year long.
02:12:11.840 --> 02:12:14.800
This is Scott from the Highly Jolly Xmasu podcast.
02:12:15.039 --> 02:12:20.239
I just want to thank Jerry for this ratty for the gag me with a spoon portion of the remote control episode.
02:12:20.479 --> 02:12:24.399
I have to say, I'm really digging the atmosphere you cooked up for the rattdies this year.
02:12:24.640 --> 02:12:27.199
It's really tubular, as in Bell's.
02:12:27.520 --> 02:12:30.960
Thanks again, and I can't wait until our next episode together.
02:12:34.000 --> 02:12:36.880
Hey there, Toby Rad Christmas fan.
02:12:37.359 --> 02:12:38.560
This is Vinny Brzezinski.
02:12:38.720 --> 02:12:44.079
Thanks for voting for Ken and I on our remote control show.
02:12:44.399 --> 02:12:45.279
Such a great show.
02:12:45.520 --> 02:12:46.720
I loved it during my childhood.
02:12:46.800 --> 02:12:47.439
My mom loved it.
02:12:47.600 --> 02:12:48.880
It was a good time for both.
02:12:49.119 --> 02:12:55.439
One of the first shows I remember that was kind of like a pop culture trivia game, which is pretty cool in my eyes.
02:12:55.920 --> 02:12:57.359
Glad you liked it and thanks for voting.
02:12:57.439 --> 02:13:03.039
And hopefully I get some more time here with Jerry D and do some more podcasts very soon.
02:13:03.199 --> 02:13:04.000
Thanks.
02:13:16.880 --> 02:13:21.279
Presenting the award for Radis Canadian Treasure episode, it's CJ Bellange.
02:13:30.560 --> 02:13:41.600
As many know, Canada has given the world many gifts, with one being me, politeness, a flannel, an alarming ability to survive winter, and of course, a deeply comforting children's television.
02:13:42.479 --> 02:13:52.399
The kind that makes you feel safe, educated, and slightly more emotionally stable than whatever is happening in your house or around the world or right now in the United States.
02:13:52.640 --> 02:13:54.720
Which frankly, we could all use.
02:13:55.119 --> 02:14:00.399
The nominees for Radis Canadian Treasure episode are me, Mr.
02:14:00.560 --> 02:14:04.960
Awesome, CJ Bellanger, Cabalnak, Mr.
02:14:05.199 --> 02:14:06.319
Dress Up.
02:14:06.560 --> 02:14:08.800
Ah man, it's it's Canadiana.
02:14:09.039 --> 02:14:09.840
It's nostalgia.
02:14:09.920 --> 02:14:12.000
I don't I don't think you guys got it out there, did you?
02:14:12.159 --> 02:14:12.880
We didn't, no.
02:14:13.359 --> 02:14:16.079
No, this guy is um it's funny.
02:14:16.159 --> 02:14:17.680
He's originally from Maine.
02:14:17.840 --> 02:14:18.720
Uh yeah.
02:14:18.880 --> 02:14:19.840
He's not even Canadian.
02:14:20.079 --> 02:14:23.920
I think he became a Canadian citizen in 92, so he was still kind of on a work visa.
02:14:24.079 --> 02:14:27.760
Oh I didn't know that at the time, but you can tell by his accent, he's not Canadian.
02:14:28.000 --> 02:14:31.279
Yeah, yeah, he doesn't have a it was Canadiana.
02:14:31.600 --> 02:14:34.319
Like if you were a young kid, you were you were watching Mr.
02:14:34.399 --> 02:14:38.079
Rogers, but he was also a he was also good friends with Mr.
02:14:38.159 --> 02:14:38.560
Rogers.
02:14:38.800 --> 02:14:40.560
So he's kind of like a protege.
02:14:41.039 --> 02:14:49.840
And um watching him growing up, like you know, he had the chest, he had all the puppets, like it just felt like a warm, a warm hug, a warm blanket every time he came on.
02:14:49.920 --> 02:14:51.279
There was something new happening.
02:14:51.600 --> 02:14:52.479
He felt homely.
02:14:52.640 --> 02:14:55.840
So even when I was young, it wasn't always the best home environment.
02:14:56.000 --> 02:14:56.880
But when you watch Mr.
02:14:56.960 --> 02:14:59.039
Dress Up, you were zapped into that world, right?
02:14:59.279 --> 02:15:01.520
So it was it was man.
02:15:01.600 --> 02:15:04.640
Every time I watch it, even the music of it is so nostalgic.
02:15:04.720 --> 02:15:12.800
I I just anytime I think about it, I think of just happy thoughts, and maybe even being babysat by I had a babysitter and her name was Alice.
02:15:12.880 --> 02:15:15.359
She was a mean old lady, but she was nice to me most of the time.
02:15:15.600 --> 02:15:18.399
But I'd watch it there, and she I guess she had a crush on him or something.
02:15:18.479 --> 02:15:20.239
She'd always call him that handsome man.
02:15:22.479 --> 02:15:24.640
I think of that, I just think of being a kid.
02:15:24.720 --> 02:15:30.960
And I remember even when you were supposed to pretend you outgrew it and you go to school, like, oh, I don't watch that stuff.
02:15:31.119 --> 02:15:31.760
Yeah, that's for babe.
02:15:32.079 --> 02:15:33.039
I absolutely did.
02:15:33.119 --> 02:15:40.800
Like if it was on TV, I was watching that well into my like 11, 10, you know, 12, 13-year-old days for sure.
02:15:40.880 --> 02:15:42.399
Like it's Canadiana, man.
02:15:42.479 --> 02:15:48.640
And I feel sorry for anybody that didn't get to watch it growing up because it was it was wholesome television that you just don't find anymore.
02:15:48.960 --> 02:15:55.920
Strong field this year, very competitive, and the winner is me.
02:16:01.279 --> 02:16:04.079
This is CJ's first win tonight.
02:16:08.640 --> 02:16:12.479
But the real winner is all of you and the world for having Mr.
02:16:12.640 --> 02:16:14.079
Dress Up and me.
02:16:15.039 --> 02:16:21.760
And if any ghosts here would like to experience gentle educational programming, I highly recommend it.
02:16:23.760 --> 02:16:25.439
See, even the house agrees.
02:16:43.360 --> 02:16:45.680
It's Chad Young and Tom Crow.
02:16:51.520 --> 02:16:53.520
Guess those equals fresh energy.
02:16:54.079 --> 02:16:55.680
Fresh perspective.
02:16:56.000 --> 02:16:57.680
Fresh ways to gankers.
02:16:58.559 --> 02:17:00.399
Chad, let's keep it positive.
02:17:01.040 --> 02:17:02.159
Being positive, Halsen.
02:17:02.479 --> 02:17:05.920
Every time a new guest shows up tonight, something else in this house wanna.
02:17:06.399 --> 02:17:08.959
Correlation does not equal causation.
02:17:09.440 --> 02:17:10.479
Tell that to the channel.
02:17:11.280 --> 02:17:14.000
We will proceed optimistically.
02:17:14.399 --> 02:17:15.280
That's your thing.
02:17:16.879 --> 02:17:26.239
The nominees for Radus Christmas Podcast guest hosts are Kevin Williams for Galaxy Rangers Marshmallow Trees.
02:17:26.559 --> 02:17:34.879
I'll have to go back and watch it again because I almost think when so yeah, they go through the scene where they're planting the saplings and they smash cut over to the burger shop.
02:17:35.040 --> 02:17:39.920
Right and they're eating their burgers, and Kimball's explaining how great these are gonna be.
02:17:40.239 --> 02:17:41.760
So understood it differently.
02:17:41.920 --> 02:17:45.840
I I thought they were actually, because he said like we've got units ready to ship or whatever.
02:17:45.920 --> 02:18:01.760
I thought he was at I thought they were actually trading trees for burger restaurants that were going back to CJ Belanger and Anthony Caruso for Planes, Trains, and Automobiles Watch Along.
02:18:02.239 --> 02:18:07.040
DHS is like records nowadays, they're actually selling them again at like Walmart and stuff.
02:18:07.280 --> 02:18:12.159
Well yeah, my my kids collect them and they just bought a um, I don't know if you know the band.
02:18:12.239 --> 02:18:20.239
They're they're a band called Hymn in a rock from um I forget where they're from, they're from Europe somewhere.
02:18:20.399 --> 02:18:23.600
And um their best of was like 70 bucks.
02:18:25.120 --> 02:18:25.440
Okay.
02:18:26.959 --> 02:18:28.959
Let's do it, but uh okay.
02:18:29.680 --> 02:18:30.559
They're expensive.
02:18:31.840 --> 02:18:37.200
Van Kessler, Scott Leopold, and Jeff Lofton with SCTV, it's a wonderful film.
02:18:37.760 --> 02:18:39.840
It it it says SCTV.
02:18:40.000 --> 02:18:45.360
It it's got a couple people from it, but it just it it wasn't the same.
02:18:45.600 --> 02:18:50.159
Yeah, a lot of the heavy hitters only had like a couple of guest appearances here and there.
02:18:51.200 --> 02:18:53.280
So what about you, Ken?
02:18:53.600 --> 02:19:11.280
I loved those early seasons where Guy Capaliero was running the station, right, and Johnny LaRue was doing his street beef and all of the other stuff, trying to be a big star.
02:19:12.000 --> 02:19:15.920
Tom Crewe, an art killer for the proclamation of the nativity.
02:19:16.159 --> 02:19:21.600
And that goes back to the day starting at sundown the day before.
02:19:22.000 --> 02:19:22.399
Exactly.
02:19:22.559 --> 02:19:29.680
It's also a reference to you know the ancient Jewish tradition of the like tomorrow, like we're technically in tomorrow.
02:19:29.840 --> 02:19:33.200
You know, we're we're so that's cool.
02:19:33.280 --> 02:19:36.239
I I I hadn't thought of that in that way before.
02:19:36.399 --> 02:19:43.120
Uh you know, doing it the the evening before, and it's like recognizing that that Jewish day, yeah.
02:19:43.760 --> 02:19:50.000
And Tim Babb and Mike Westfall from all new Mickey Mouse Club Christmas Special.
02:19:50.559 --> 02:19:51.520
This is from their 1990s.
02:19:52.000 --> 02:19:54.319
I remember like as soon as it started, I'm like, oh yeah?
02:19:54.719 --> 02:19:57.120
I remember I used to listen to this song.
02:19:57.440 --> 02:19:58.639
I remember the song.
02:19:58.799 --> 02:20:03.520
I do not remember this video of them at this ski resort, but I definitely remember the song.
02:20:03.760 --> 02:20:09.680
I didn't go too deep on the video because it was a lot of just them singing and dancing in like in ski resorts and on the side.
02:20:09.840 --> 02:20:10.319
No, that's it.
02:20:10.399 --> 02:20:11.120
That's the whole video.
02:20:11.440 --> 02:20:13.280
That's that's yeah, that's that's all they got.
02:20:13.520 --> 02:20:17.520
And I think it's just because it's kind of snowy and Christmassy.
02:20:17.840 --> 02:20:23.360
Yeah, I think that's what they were trying to do, but like I feel like the song makes reference to summer over and over again.
02:20:23.600 --> 02:20:31.040
And the winner is CJ and Anthony.
02:20:32.719 --> 02:20:35.680
This is this duo's second win tonight.
02:20:41.520 --> 02:20:42.319
It's an honor.
02:20:42.399 --> 02:20:45.440
I mean, two awards here, uh, three awards tonight so far.
02:20:45.600 --> 02:20:46.959
One, two with CJ.
02:20:47.440 --> 02:20:49.920
Uh, you know, I love these watch-alongs.
02:20:50.159 --> 02:20:52.639
Um, I want to thank Jerry, the Academy.
02:20:53.040 --> 02:21:06.639
Um, and I want to dedicate this award to the late great John Candy, you know, uh comic icon and legend who uh, you know, I hope you're up there having drinks of Catherine Hera right now.
02:21:06.719 --> 02:21:07.440
Uh thank you all.
02:21:07.600 --> 02:21:08.399
Merry Christmas.
02:21:15.200 --> 02:21:18.319
Woo! Let's go! Another award for me.
02:21:18.559 --> 02:21:24.079
Anthony was good and all, but listen, anytime I'm on an episode, Jerry, look me in the eyes.
02:21:24.959 --> 02:21:26.719
I'm the captain now, okay?
02:21:26.959 --> 02:21:28.719
I'm number one, everybody knows it.
02:21:28.799 --> 02:21:32.319
And if a ghost goes near my Jordans again, they're getting rocked.
02:21:32.479 --> 02:21:32.959
Thank you.
02:21:33.120 --> 02:21:34.000
Bye-bye.
02:21:47.760 --> 02:21:50.159
Okay, I don't like that it's reacting now.
02:21:50.479 --> 02:21:53.760
It appears to support this terrible decision.
02:21:54.079 --> 02:21:54.879
Well, great.
02:21:54.959 --> 02:21:56.479
Even this house has opinions.
02:21:57.840 --> 02:22:03.440
I have had enough if you will not host with dignity and announce my return.
02:22:03.600 --> 02:22:06.399
Well, what is will be no more.
02:22:06.959 --> 02:22:09.280
Now is the season of evil.
02:22:17.440 --> 02:22:19.520
Ladies and gentlemen.
02:22:19.920 --> 02:22:22.079
Oh no, we just leaped into Chad.
02:22:22.319 --> 02:22:24.079
He's not just possessed.
02:22:24.239 --> 02:22:25.920
Uh, I think he's campaigning.
02:22:26.239 --> 02:22:28.239
Ugh, I hate politics.
02:22:28.799 --> 02:22:30.079
A campaign banner?
02:22:30.239 --> 02:22:30.639
Really?
02:22:30.879 --> 02:22:32.159
Hawthorne for mayor.
02:22:32.239 --> 02:22:33.200
What is what does that say?
02:22:33.360 --> 02:22:35.200
Order, progress, obedience?
02:22:35.280 --> 02:22:36.399
Come on, man.
02:22:37.280 --> 02:22:43.840
It is with the most utmost gravitas, and I announce the restoration of proper civic order.
02:22:44.079 --> 02:22:46.399
That banner is extremely concerning.
02:22:46.639 --> 02:22:49.680
That is a supernatural campaign launch.
02:22:49.920 --> 02:22:54.159
The city shall again know discipline structure, loyal servants.
02:22:54.719 --> 02:22:59.680
And now I present the first category of my new administration.
02:22:59.920 --> 02:23:03.040
We need a we need to break this possession immediately.
02:23:03.280 --> 02:23:04.719
Business or personal?
02:23:05.440 --> 02:23:06.399
Totally red.
02:23:07.120 --> 02:23:13.440
Presenting the award for Radus Non-Christmas podcast host, it's Mike Westfall and CJ Bellinger.
02:23:22.079 --> 02:23:25.040
Sometimes we all have to branch out beyond Christmas.
02:23:25.680 --> 02:23:27.120
Just don't cross the streams.
02:23:27.680 --> 02:23:29.920
Man, you said it! Should I leave?
02:23:30.479 --> 02:23:31.120
No, baba.
02:23:31.920 --> 02:23:32.959
Just don't cross the streams.
02:23:33.760 --> 02:23:34.559
Good advice.
02:23:35.200 --> 02:23:39.680
Also feels like advice we should be applying literally in about five minutes.
02:23:43.040 --> 02:23:52.399
The nominees for Rattus Non-Christmas podcast host are from Rubik's First Christmas, Adam Pope, and William Bruce West.
02:23:53.440 --> 02:23:54.639
It's still huge.
02:23:54.799 --> 02:23:56.159
Like, it's huge here.
02:23:56.399 --> 02:24:02.239
And I wondered, I think it was like a few Christmases ago, and like it was half joking, but like I'm serious.
02:24:02.399 --> 02:24:04.559
It was back when we all were still on Twitter.
02:24:04.719 --> 02:24:09.280
Like, how is the Zay Fredziano not the world's richest man?
02:24:10.159 --> 02:24:11.120
Well, he's gotta be.
02:24:12.000 --> 02:24:16.239
The reason we know it is it was licensed everywhere for every movie, every TV show.
02:24:17.440 --> 02:24:23.440
But he must have gotten a terrible deal because from what I've read about him, he's nowhere near as rich as he should be.
02:24:25.040 --> 02:24:29.280
From Beverly Hills teams, William Bruce West and Chad Young.
02:24:29.600 --> 02:24:30.399
Even a year.
02:24:30.639 --> 02:24:31.120
Even a year.
02:24:31.280 --> 02:24:34.479
Even a year, because this is just September to December.
02:24:34.639 --> 02:24:40.719
So it's like if it had been like September to December of 86, like it would have been birthday.
02:24:40.959 --> 02:24:42.479
They might have gotten another season.
02:24:43.840 --> 02:24:45.920
87 just it's too late.
02:24:46.159 --> 02:24:46.479
Yeah.
02:24:46.879 --> 02:24:52.239
There was a big like obsession in the 80s with and it all goes back to what Will was saying.
02:24:52.399 --> 02:25:05.360
Like being rich and all, you know, it was so cool, and that's what Beverly Hills was like the the main location for all of that, at least in like in shows and all that, you know.
02:25:05.680 --> 02:25:11.600
And from Thundercats UK Comics Christmas issues, Laramie Wells and Nicholas Pepin.
02:25:12.559 --> 02:25:19.200
They probably did it, they just didn't bother to reference it, or they they put it halfway through the next uh you know six issues later.
02:25:19.440 --> 02:25:19.840
That's right.
02:25:19.920 --> 02:25:30.319
Yeah, like like, yeah, because there's one reference, I don't know if it was this one or one of the others we're gonna talk about, where it does the little asterisk and then it says, like, in a future issue.
02:25:30.399 --> 02:25:34.719
And I'm going, What how are you referencing something that hasn't happened yet?
02:25:34.959 --> 02:25:42.799
And the winner is William Bruce West and Chad Young for Beverly.
02:25:45.680 --> 02:25:48.319
This is William West's first win tonight.
02:25:48.639 --> 02:25:51.200
This is Chad Young's third win tonight.
02:25:52.479 --> 02:25:57.040
Here accepting the award on behalf of William Bruce West, here's Adam Pope.
02:25:57.360 --> 02:26:03.840
I want to thank Jerry for inviting me to accept this award on behalf of our dearly departed friend William Bruce West.
02:26:04.079 --> 02:26:10.959
I remember specifically listening to this episode and just howling and being so entertained.
02:26:11.120 --> 02:26:17.840
And I literally messaged Will the next day and just said, Buddy, you were on fire.
02:26:18.000 --> 02:26:21.840
That totally ran Christmas episode is going to go down in history.
02:26:21.920 --> 02:26:27.520
It was so indicative of everything that William Bruce West had to bring to the table.
02:26:27.760 --> 02:26:32.319
He had Chad Young into the mix, and those guys are just gonna carry it.
02:26:32.399 --> 02:26:36.799
You know, you can just sit back if you're a podcast host because they will take care of things.
02:26:36.879 --> 02:26:43.200
But Will was just he was so focused in on this Beverly Hills teens cartoon.
02:26:43.360 --> 02:26:45.360
He had so many interesting insights.
02:26:45.520 --> 02:26:49.680
He is the king of metaphors and he can connect the dots to so many places.
02:26:49.920 --> 02:26:54.559
So this I knew was going to be an award-winning appearance for the Raddies.
02:26:54.719 --> 02:26:56.159
It is well deserved.
02:26:56.319 --> 02:27:04.799
I'm glad that Jerry and the committee have recognized that and will, you will live on in our hearts and in our memories forever.
02:27:05.040 --> 02:27:13.040
But the Beverly Hills Teens episode of Totally Rad Christmas will shine like a star on top of the Christmas tree for years to come.
02:27:13.280 --> 02:27:14.319
Miss you, buddy.
02:27:20.239 --> 02:27:24.479
Uh Chad also cannot give uh an expressive evidence speech at this time.
02:27:25.120 --> 02:27:27.360
Due to him being indisposed.
02:27:28.079 --> 02:27:29.200
Super indisposed.
02:27:29.760 --> 02:27:31.520
Extremely possessed.
02:27:32.399 --> 02:27:35.360
We'll probably perform an exorcism later.
02:27:37.680 --> 02:27:39.120
He's still hosting.
02:27:40.079 --> 02:27:41.840
Yeah, we're gonna have to go deal with that.
02:27:42.719 --> 02:27:47.760
Presenting the award for Raddest All-Star episode, it's Jerry D and Tom Crow.
02:27:55.920 --> 02:27:58.959
Alright, this next category celebrates something special.
02:27:59.280 --> 02:28:02.639
The episodes where the podcast basically turns into the Avengers.
02:28:03.280 --> 02:28:03.680
Right.
02:28:03.920 --> 02:28:11.440
These are the episodes where you've got multiple hosts, surprise guests, crossovers, and half the time you don't even know who's talking anymore.
02:28:11.840 --> 02:28:17.120
I mean, it's the podcast equivalent of that moment in every 80s movie when the whole team shows up for the final battle.
02:28:17.680 --> 02:28:25.440
Except instead of swords and laser cannons, it's microphones and encyclopedic knowledge of obscure Christmas media.
02:28:26.000 --> 02:28:28.000
Which honestly might be more dangerous.
02:28:28.799 --> 02:28:32.879
Also, coordinating these episodes is a logistical nightmare.
02:28:33.280 --> 02:28:33.680
Right.
02:28:33.840 --> 02:28:37.600
Trying to schedule five podcast hosts is harder than assembling Voltron.
02:28:37.920 --> 02:28:39.840
Voltron only had five lions.
02:28:40.239 --> 02:28:40.959
Exactly.
02:28:41.200 --> 02:28:44.959
Some of these episodes feel like twelve lions and a guy who wandered in from Kmart.
02:28:45.280 --> 02:28:48.799
Which actually describes one of our nominees from tonight.
02:28:49.040 --> 02:28:56.479
The nominees for Rattist All-Star Episode are Danny Davila for Cludo, Christmas Past, Christmas Present.
02:28:56.719 --> 02:28:59.360
Yes, and the guy too, he was like, you have 45 seconds.
02:28:59.440 --> 02:29:01.840
I'm just reminding you, you have 45 seconds.
02:29:02.079 --> 02:29:04.239
Uh so uh uh Mr.
02:29:04.399 --> 02:29:07.600
uh uh Colonel Mustard or whatever it was.
02:29:07.840 --> 02:29:10.719
Like uh and by the way, I liked how you did this.
02:29:10.799 --> 02:29:11.760
Uh oh yeah, yeah.
02:29:12.000 --> 02:29:13.040
Like, like, no, no, no.
02:29:13.120 --> 02:29:13.440
Come on.
02:29:13.600 --> 02:29:15.200
Uh my apologies.
02:29:15.520 --> 02:29:19.280
Like, they're getting into it, like they're in the they're in the clue world too.
02:29:19.360 --> 02:29:24.319
Like, they weren't just wrestling bros from 80s wrestling part four.
02:29:24.559 --> 02:29:30.000
I always thought, man, if he ever let that go when he got into the crowd, dude, that's a lawsuit like that.
02:29:30.159 --> 02:29:30.559
Lawsuit.
02:29:30.719 --> 02:29:31.040
Oh, yeah.
02:29:31.440 --> 02:29:31.840
Huge.
02:29:32.239 --> 02:29:33.360
Can I ask a question?
02:29:33.520 --> 02:29:36.079
Did anybody seriously sit and watch this entire match?
02:29:36.559 --> 02:29:37.600
I watched the whole thing.
02:29:37.680 --> 02:29:38.319
I actually watched a lot.
02:29:38.799 --> 02:29:39.840
I got highlights of it.
02:29:40.799 --> 02:29:41.680
Lots of headbutts.
02:29:42.079 --> 02:29:43.040
Lots of headbutts.
02:29:43.200 --> 02:29:47.600
Yeah, the only matches I watched, I knew Duggan was wasn't going more than four minutes.
02:29:47.840 --> 02:29:50.399
And I knew I knew Warrior wasn't going more than six.
02:29:50.479 --> 02:29:51.680
So I'm like, I'll watch these.
02:29:51.760 --> 02:29:53.360
The other ones, hell no.
02:29:53.680 --> 02:29:56.959
I mean, technically I watched it all, but on like one and a half speed.
02:29:57.200 --> 02:29:59.520
Warrior went way too long for a Warrior match.
02:29:59.680 --> 02:30:02.559
Nicholas Pepin and Vinny Brzezinski for Kmart.
02:30:02.879 --> 02:30:08.079
I think the last pop culture reference I remember Kmart was in uh Gronups.
02:30:08.239 --> 02:30:08.799
Grown Ups 2.
02:30:08.959 --> 02:30:09.360
Oh, yeah, yeah.
02:30:09.760 --> 02:30:11.520
Because remember they were hanging out in Grown-Ups?
02:30:11.760 --> 02:30:12.799
Like, what was that?
02:30:13.120 --> 02:30:16.239
Late 2 like 2010, 2011?
02:30:16.479 --> 02:30:20.719
Um because I was like, man, there's still a K there's still a Kmart in New Hampshire?
02:30:20.959 --> 02:30:24.479
Like where is where is there still Kmart's?
02:30:24.719 --> 02:30:32.239
Well, one of the most surprising things is when I lived in Florida, I lived in Boca Raton, which is one of like the richer parts of the state of Florida.
02:30:32.479 --> 02:30:38.639
And they were really particular on like how McDonald's was allowed to have road signs.
02:30:38.719 --> 02:30:43.920
Like they couldn't be above a certain height, like certain restaurants had to change the color of their logo.
02:30:44.159 --> 02:30:49.120
Ken Kessler, Scott Leopold, and Jeff Lofton for SCTV, it's a wonderful film.
02:30:49.360 --> 02:30:52.479
Or maybe what they were like 40 years ago.
02:30:52.799 --> 02:30:53.120
Right.
02:30:54.000 --> 02:30:54.239
Exactly.
02:30:54.719 --> 02:31:02.559
If you watch someone like the uh the you know C and D level sex comedies back then, I I I think they nailed it on the head.
02:31:02.879 --> 02:31:07.360
Like zapped or uh up the creek.
02:31:07.520 --> 02:31:12.159
And Mike Westwall and Tim Babb from the all-new Mickey Mouse Club Christmas special.
02:31:12.719 --> 02:31:18.399
Like, this is even more of Debbie Downer than uh than Wendy Wallow.
02:31:20.559 --> 02:31:21.760
Now it's a superhero.
02:31:22.000 --> 02:31:25.920
Mickey Mouse Club just thought everyone was too happy.
02:31:26.079 --> 02:31:29.520
You know, well, the ends have been too happy, we're bringing it down.
02:31:29.840 --> 02:31:30.399
We're bringing it down.
02:31:31.040 --> 02:31:35.360
It's just like, alright, our idea of comedy is look at this sad sap.
02:31:37.520 --> 02:31:39.440
Isn't it funny when people are miserable?
02:31:39.840 --> 02:31:42.239
Now imagine he's a superhero.
02:31:43.200 --> 02:31:44.000
That's right.
02:31:44.239 --> 02:31:49.520
Uh, but also, who who is sending Christmas cards to a TV show?
02:31:49.840 --> 02:31:53.120
I don't know, but I probably would have if I was into it.
02:31:53.600 --> 02:31:53.920
Okay.
02:31:54.239 --> 02:31:58.959
I mean, I guess people just like to mail TV shows, but I don't remember them like giving anything.
02:31:59.440 --> 02:32:01.440
How generic that card was?
02:32:01.520 --> 02:32:03.680
I feel like they made it up just to launch into the bit.
02:32:04.079 --> 02:32:11.920
And the winner is from 80s wrestling part four, the wrestling bros.
02:32:12.079 --> 02:32:15.040
Jeremy, Ron, Joe, and Manny.
02:32:15.120 --> 02:32:16.799
Oh, and CJ, and CJ.
02:32:18.000 --> 02:32:21.040
This is this ensemble's first win tonight.
02:32:24.959 --> 02:32:29.280
You know, Tom might have forgotten my name, but I honestly don't really care about him.
02:32:29.600 --> 02:32:31.920
Listen, um, I love wrestling.
02:32:32.079 --> 02:32:33.600
I love talking about wrestling.
02:32:33.840 --> 02:32:35.120
Not a big fan of all these guys.
02:32:35.280 --> 02:32:38.319
I kind of make them look better as I do because I win awards.
02:32:38.479 --> 02:32:40.879
So I'm gonna take uh responsibility for this.
02:32:41.040 --> 02:32:42.239
I'm gonna thank myself.
02:32:42.399 --> 02:32:45.520
I'm gonna I'm gonna also thank Jerry for having me on.
02:32:45.840 --> 02:32:53.200
And just because Tom's on the show, I'm gonna thank God because I feel God in this haunted house tonight.
02:33:01.360 --> 02:33:06.000
First of all, I want to thank Jerry and the Raddies committee for this excellent award.
02:33:06.159 --> 02:33:10.719
It's a shame you retired the most beautiful beard award, but you know, I'll take the Raddies where I can get them.
02:33:10.799 --> 02:33:12.719
I'm stacking them up like paper, baby.
02:33:12.959 --> 02:33:15.840
And let me just say thank you to all the wrestling bros.
02:33:16.000 --> 02:33:18.879
Thank you to all the wrestling fans, thank you to all the people who voted for me.
02:33:18.959 --> 02:33:21.840
And if you didn't vote for me, what's wrong with you?
02:33:22.159 --> 02:33:24.159
Because you got to learn, people.
02:33:25.360 --> 02:33:30.559
And also I want to say give a shout out to my homeboy Anthony.
02:33:30.799 --> 02:33:32.959
And uh let me just say, let me just wing it here.
02:33:33.120 --> 02:33:39.760
Camilla Creeper, Dracula's cousin, that is a nepo baby, baby, and we ain't got no time for that.
02:33:40.719 --> 02:33:46.719
Justice for the gill man, justice for blueberry, justice for all my monster serial homies.
02:33:51.920 --> 02:33:54.319
Hey baby, it's the J-Wave.
02:33:54.799 --> 02:33:59.760
You know, I may be fresh off a beating that I endured at the last United 210 event in San Antonio.
02:34:00.639 --> 02:34:05.600
But that couldn't stop me from attending the most prestigious of award shows.
02:34:06.079 --> 02:34:07.200
The raddies.
02:34:08.000 --> 02:34:14.319
You know, I can't say that I'm 100% happy with my family of sharks in Texas.
02:34:15.040 --> 02:34:18.079
But I know that I can't go wrong with my wrestling bros.
02:34:18.399 --> 02:34:20.399
Hear it totally rad Christmas.
02:34:21.120 --> 02:34:24.239
Anytime we've talked, it's been a rad time.
02:34:24.559 --> 02:34:27.040
And I can't wait until we do it again.
02:34:27.360 --> 02:34:28.719
Thanks, guys.
02:34:40.479 --> 02:34:42.559
We need to break the possession.
02:34:42.719 --> 02:34:47.920
Right now, Chad's having a violent, prolonged, transformative, psychic episode.
02:34:48.159 --> 02:34:49.920
We must disrupt the tone!
02:34:50.159 --> 02:34:52.000
Something destabilizing.
02:34:52.319 --> 02:34:54.399
Chad is now pulsing with evil.
02:34:54.559 --> 02:35:03.280
It would take a tremendous amount of positive energy to crack that shell, and I seriously doubt there's enough goodwill left in this award show to do it.
02:35:03.520 --> 02:35:04.239
You know what?
02:35:04.399 --> 02:35:08.399
I just can't believe things have gotten so bad in this award show that there's no way back.
02:35:08.559 --> 02:35:18.079
I mean, sure, it's dirty, it's crowded, it's low class, it's noisy, there are people all around who just soon step on your faces, look at you.
02:35:18.239 --> 02:35:23.520
But come on! There's gotta be a few sparks of sweet, sweet humanity left in this thing.
02:35:23.760 --> 02:35:26.000
We just have to figure out a way to mobilize it.
02:35:26.319 --> 02:35:27.200
He's right.
02:35:27.360 --> 02:35:30.719
We need something that everyone in this building can get behind.
02:35:31.040 --> 02:35:33.200
We need a symbol.
02:35:33.760 --> 02:35:37.760
Something that appeals to the best in each and every one of us.
02:35:38.000 --> 02:35:39.120
Something good.
02:35:39.520 --> 02:35:40.799
Something decent.
02:35:41.040 --> 02:35:42.399
Something pure.
02:35:43.200 --> 02:35:43.840
Oh no.
02:35:44.000 --> 02:35:46.559
I know it's a bad joke.
02:35:46.879 --> 02:35:50.719
Ladies and gentlemen, the fall of the order shall begin.
02:35:51.040 --> 02:35:52.879
Hey hey, why did the ghost run for mayor?
02:35:53.360 --> 02:35:55.760
Do not because he wanted to raise the budget.
02:35:57.040 --> 02:35:58.719
Good, he's weakening!
02:36:00.000 --> 02:36:00.319
Terrible.
02:36:00.559 --> 02:36:01.280
Hit him again.
02:36:01.440 --> 02:36:02.479
What do you call a ghost?
02:36:05.120 --> 02:36:06.959
A transparent leader.
02:36:11.600 --> 02:36:13.360
This is not boot.
02:36:16.239 --> 02:36:18.159
Don't cry, it's just a joke.
02:36:18.399 --> 02:36:19.040
Oh come on!
02:36:26.879 --> 02:36:30.000
Your humor is an abomination.
02:36:30.239 --> 02:36:30.959
That's true.
02:36:31.200 --> 02:36:32.639
Extremely effective though.
02:36:32.799 --> 02:36:33.600
Oh well.
02:36:33.840 --> 02:36:35.360
We gotta get to that next award.
02:36:35.520 --> 02:36:36.639
Come on, Mike.
02:36:36.799 --> 02:36:37.680
Let's a go.
02:36:38.879 --> 02:36:39.840
Totally red.
02:36:40.399 --> 02:36:44.879
And now here to present the award for raddest hap hap happiest moment.
02:36:45.280 --> 02:36:48.639
It's Mike Westfall and CJ Bell and Jay.
02:36:55.600 --> 02:37:00.479
This next award celebrates something that sits at the very heart of Christmas storytelling.
02:37:01.200 --> 02:37:01.520
Joy.
02:37:02.559 --> 02:37:03.200
Exactly.
02:37:03.760 --> 02:37:10.159
The moments when nostalgia hits just right and suddenly you're ten years old again and watching television in December.
02:37:10.719 --> 02:37:15.760
Those moments where you pause the episode and say, I forgot how much I love this.
02:37:16.399 --> 02:37:20.719
Or sometimes, I cannot believe this actually aired on television.
02:37:21.120 --> 02:37:22.719
And sometimes both at the same time.
02:37:23.280 --> 02:37:32.079
But those moments, whether heartfelt, funny, or wonderfully strange, capture the spirit of why we revisit these specials year after year.
02:37:32.479 --> 02:37:36.319
They're the scenes that make you smile, even if you've seen them a thousand times.
02:37:36.799 --> 02:37:38.639
Which brings us to the nominees.
02:37:38.879 --> 02:37:48.000
The nominees for Raddest, Hap Hap Happiest Moment are from Freddie the Freeloader's Christmas Dinner, Sean Sotka.
02:37:48.239 --> 02:37:51.760
Oh, just watching it year after year when I was a kid when after it first came out.
02:37:55.600 --> 02:37:57.200
It was just phenomenal.
02:37:57.360 --> 02:37:58.639
It was something I look forward to.
02:37:58.719 --> 02:38:02.479
That there was a few specials in HBO that time that I loved watching.
02:38:02.559 --> 02:38:05.120
So to me that was that was a part of Christmas.
02:38:05.360 --> 02:38:10.000
And once they stopped airing it, once they stopped airing it, it was sad.
02:38:10.559 --> 02:38:12.639
So years later I finally found it again.
02:38:12.799 --> 02:38:14.959
I'm like, yes, I can watch this again.
02:38:15.200 --> 02:38:15.680
From Mr.
02:38:15.840 --> 02:38:17.680
Dress Up, CJ Ballanger.
02:38:18.159 --> 02:38:20.000
I was always a big fan of the tree, you know.
02:38:20.079 --> 02:38:20.799
I tried to get it.
02:38:21.200 --> 02:38:25.600
I cover it with some green icing and then put the ornaments on it and stuff like that.
02:38:25.760 --> 02:38:30.079
Um normally the tree, because that's that's what you could put the most frosting on.
02:38:31.120 --> 02:38:33.680
My fat diabetic ass was like, yeah.
02:38:34.399 --> 02:38:36.079
I'm about to down to sugar.
02:38:36.879 --> 02:38:37.600
I'm doing it.
02:38:38.639 --> 02:38:39.280
That was me.
02:38:40.319 --> 02:38:43.360
From International Santa Claus collection, Jeff Lofton.
02:38:43.760 --> 02:38:58.879
Oh man, the first time I got a lot, and I like uh like I bought a bulk on eBay, and I opened it up, and there was no duplicates, and there was one that was a surprise, and it was the one with the flying carpet that I'm going crazy trying to remember which one it is.
02:38:59.040 --> 02:39:00.239
Maybe it's Morocco.
02:39:00.719 --> 02:39:06.399
And from the 1985 Walt Disney World Very Merry Christmas Parade, Tim Babb and Charlie Ague.
02:39:06.719 --> 02:39:10.079
I'm just probably Regis steamrolling over the people he's interviewing.
02:39:10.639 --> 02:39:12.159
Made me laugh so much.
02:39:13.200 --> 02:39:14.799
Well, it's pretty great.
02:39:15.120 --> 02:39:23.680
Yeah, I'm gonna have to say, since I don't have any memories of this except for, you know, this discussion here, obviously I'll stick with the group, the group talk here that we had about it.
02:39:23.840 --> 02:39:26.319
Oh classic.
02:39:26.479 --> 02:39:27.120
Yeah.
02:39:27.360 --> 02:39:34.879
And the winner is Tim and Charlie for the Disney Parade.
02:39:36.559 --> 02:39:39.440
This is this duo's second win tonight.
02:39:41.680 --> 02:39:42.479
Thank you so much.
02:39:42.639 --> 02:39:49.440
Winning the Hap Hap Happiest Moment was all about capturing pure Christmas joy and maybe a little chaos, just like the holiday should be.
02:39:49.520 --> 02:39:53.200
And speaking of chaos, has anyone else noticed how cold it is in here?
02:39:53.360 --> 02:39:55.920
Like haunted Victorian Christmas mansion cold.
02:39:56.000 --> 02:39:58.959
I walked past a mirror backstage and didn't see my reflection for a second.
02:39:59.120 --> 02:40:00.319
So I'm just throwing that out there.
02:40:00.399 --> 02:40:03.600
But hey, if the ghosts are listening, this award is for you too.
02:40:03.760 --> 02:40:05.440
Stay festive, everyone.
02:40:11.520 --> 02:40:13.040
Thank you so much for this award.
02:40:13.200 --> 02:40:17.360
You know, these things are a team effort, just like doing group project back at school.
02:40:17.520 --> 02:40:23.120
And just like back at school, there's always one member of the team that's slacking and another member of the team who has to do all the work.
02:40:23.360 --> 02:40:27.840
So my apologies to Charlie who had to do all the heavy lifting for this hap hap happiest moment.
02:40:28.079 --> 02:40:29.440
This isn't me being humble.
02:40:29.600 --> 02:40:30.399
Go back and listen.
02:40:30.559 --> 02:40:35.200
I go off on a random tangent about Superman 2 when we're supposed to be talking about the Walt Disney World Parade.
02:40:35.280 --> 02:40:40.879
So thanks to the voters, but mostly thanks to Charlie for making things whoa! That was totally a ghost.
02:40:41.040 --> 02:40:42.239
No one else saw that?
02:40:42.479 --> 02:40:44.399
Oh okay, okay, I gotta go.
02:40:54.639 --> 02:40:56.239
Chad, are you okay?
02:40:56.959 --> 02:41:01.040
I I feel like I just hosted a Victorian Town Hall meeting.
02:41:01.360 --> 02:41:02.239
You did.
02:41:02.799 --> 02:41:05.120
You promised infrastructure reform.
02:41:06.319 --> 02:41:09.680
You cannot stop the return of all that.
02:41:10.399 --> 02:41:13.120
Alright, Chad, go get the Proton packs.
02:41:13.360 --> 02:41:13.920
On it.
02:41:14.159 --> 02:41:15.760
You brought Proton packs?
02:41:15.920 --> 02:41:19.120
Yeah, I bring my stuff Ghostbusters stuff wherever I go.
02:41:19.440 --> 02:41:22.319
Wait, you brought multiple proton packs?
02:41:22.559 --> 02:41:26.559
Listen, I mean I think what I'm saying is that sometimes stuff happens.
02:41:26.719 --> 02:41:27.680
Someone has to deal with it.
02:41:27.840 --> 02:41:29.040
Who are you gonna call?
02:41:29.360 --> 02:41:31.840
You know, those would have been helpful earlier.
02:41:32.559 --> 02:41:33.360
Details.
02:41:33.520 --> 02:41:35.440
Alright! Proton packs.
02:41:35.520 --> 02:41:36.319
Let me go get them.
02:41:37.200 --> 02:41:40.319
Your resistance is pathetically few pile.
02:41:43.120 --> 02:41:44.079
Here's Chad.
02:41:44.239 --> 02:41:44.559
Wow.
02:41:44.719 --> 02:41:46.079
Look at those packs.
02:41:46.319 --> 02:41:48.000
Please tell me those are real.
02:41:48.239 --> 02:41:49.520
How did you even get those?
02:41:49.600 --> 02:41:53.040
Like, where does one pick up an actual proton pack?
02:41:53.440 --> 02:41:58.639
eBay and various conventional real and they're spectacular.
02:42:05.360 --> 02:42:07.920
Can are real Ghostbusters proton packs?
02:42:08.479 --> 02:42:09.760
Those are toys.
02:42:10.479 --> 02:42:12.479
Listen, dude, they were on set.
02:42:13.120 --> 02:42:15.040
Those are from 1986.
02:42:15.440 --> 02:42:17.840
Yeah, these are definitely made of plastic.
02:42:18.159 --> 02:42:20.479
Well, if there's a steady paycheck in it.
02:42:20.719 --> 02:42:22.719
Wheeler is anything.
02:42:25.040 --> 02:42:27.200
Alright, strap these bad boys on, guys.
02:42:27.280 --> 02:42:27.680
Come on.
02:42:27.840 --> 02:42:28.479
There you go.
02:42:28.639 --> 02:42:30.799
Alright, now everybody make the noises.
02:42:32.319 --> 02:42:33.120
Yep, you know.
02:42:38.159 --> 02:42:39.440
Wow, wow, wow.
02:42:40.000 --> 02:42:40.399
Wow.
02:42:42.479 --> 02:42:44.079
Yeah, I'm not doing that, dude.
02:42:44.239 --> 02:42:44.879
Come on, bud.
02:42:45.040 --> 02:42:46.159
Haven't you ever seen hook?
02:42:46.239 --> 02:42:46.959
It'll work.
02:42:47.600 --> 02:42:49.920
Well I'm down to try anything.
02:42:55.200 --> 02:42:57.520
Oh god, nobody better be recording this.
02:43:01.120 --> 02:43:02.239
Uh what screen?
02:43:03.200 --> 02:43:05.920
Oh, sir.
02:43:15.840 --> 02:43:18.239
Nevertheless, continue the noises, guys.
02:43:27.200 --> 02:43:29.040
Yeah, that's definitely good.
02:43:30.239 --> 02:43:31.840
That means there's no logic in any.
02:43:36.879 --> 02:43:38.959
That's kind of our brand, guy.
02:43:49.280 --> 02:43:55.360
One in the box! Ready to go! We be fast and we be low.
02:43:56.879 --> 02:43:57.440
Wow.
02:43:57.760 --> 02:43:58.399
Really?
02:43:58.959 --> 02:43:59.520
Works.
02:44:00.000 --> 02:44:02.479
Look, the slime's disappearing too.
02:44:02.799 --> 02:44:06.479
Oh man, I wanted to say something about the throat Anthony later.
02:44:06.799 --> 02:44:09.120
Chad, it's good to have you back, buddy.
02:44:09.680 --> 02:44:14.879
Um did did we just ghost boss the Victorian mare with the children's toys?
02:44:15.280 --> 02:44:15.760
Yep.
02:44:16.239 --> 02:44:18.879
And we provided all the sound effects vocally.
02:44:19.360 --> 02:44:20.799
What the hell was that about?
02:44:21.040 --> 02:44:25.680
I don't know, but it was pretty remarkable! Hey, never underestimate the Kenner toy light.
02:44:25.840 --> 02:44:27.280
Now on to the next award.
02:44:27.600 --> 02:44:28.479
Totally red.
02:44:29.200 --> 02:44:35.840
And now, here to present the award for Radist half the battle guests, it's Mike Westville and CJ Bell and J.
02:44:44.000 --> 02:44:44.559
Alright.
02:44:44.719 --> 02:44:47.040
This next category is a special one.
02:44:47.440 --> 02:44:55.840
Yes, it celebrates the moment on the show when someone drops a piece of knowledge so specific and unexpected that everyone else just drops and goes.
02:44:56.799 --> 02:44:58.559
How did you know that?
02:44:59.200 --> 02:44:59.760
Exactly.
02:45:00.399 --> 02:45:06.719
It's the podcast equivalent of when Egon suddenly explains the entire paranormal situation in 30 seconds.
02:45:07.280 --> 02:45:07.440
Right.
02:45:08.079 --> 02:45:16.959
Everyone else is panicking, and Egon's like, well, obviously this is a blah blah blah full roaming vapor blah blah cross-dimensional anchoring point.
02:45:17.600 --> 02:45:21.520
And somehow that explanation actually makes things more terrifying.
02:45:22.159 --> 02:45:24.239
That's the beauty of the half-the battlegest.
02:45:24.959 --> 02:45:29.280
One person casually drops a fact about a Christmas special from 1984.
02:45:29.920 --> 02:45:32.959
And suddenly the entire conversation changes direction.
02:45:33.520 --> 02:45:34.799
Sometimes it's trivia.
02:45:35.280 --> 02:45:36.639
Sometimes it's archaeology.
02:45:37.280 --> 02:45:42.479
Sometimes it's just me remembering something I watched once at two in the morning in 1991.
02:45:42.879 --> 02:45:45.760
Which to be fair is about 40% of the podcast.
02:45:46.079 --> 02:45:55.440
And with that in mind, the nominees for Rattest Half the Battle Guests are From Superboy, Young Dracula, CM Chuck.
02:45:56.159 --> 02:46:03.440
Uh the other half is Jerry that if you're a vampire getting taken into space, be aware that that's where the sun also is.
02:46:04.959 --> 02:46:05.680
That's great.
02:46:05.920 --> 02:46:06.319
Yeah.
02:46:06.719 --> 02:46:08.719
I was like, come on, man.
02:46:08.879 --> 02:46:09.440
I mean.
02:46:10.079 --> 02:46:14.799
From a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, Anthony Caruso and Jeremy Phelps.
02:46:15.200 --> 02:46:21.440
Checking whether your dog and his best birdfriend can actually cook before struggling to make Thanksgiving dinner yourself.
02:46:22.959 --> 02:46:28.399
Yeah, but then we came to realize that you know the food would be covered in dog hair, so it might have not been a good thing to share.
02:46:28.719 --> 02:46:29.920
But it would be whimsical.
02:46:30.319 --> 02:46:31.760
It would be whimsical.
02:46:33.920 --> 02:46:35.680
I don't trust Chat GPT, though.
02:46:35.920 --> 02:46:36.959
I'm all for whimsy.
02:46:37.120 --> 02:46:38.159
Let's try it.
02:46:39.520 --> 02:46:46.239
Well, I think if uh knowing is half the battle, the other half is having a really cool grandma who lives in a condominium.
02:46:46.479 --> 02:46:50.959
From the all-new Mickey Mouse Club Christmas special, Tim Babb and Mike Westfall.
02:46:51.120 --> 02:46:55.200
Shopping at Mousie's holiday department store where we have really great bargains.
02:46:55.360 --> 02:46:56.719
So just take a look.
02:46:58.399 --> 02:47:00.319
I wrote that myself.
02:47:03.040 --> 02:47:03.520
Great.
02:47:03.680 --> 02:47:05.680
Uh knowing what a glacier is.
02:47:08.559 --> 02:47:10.000
So you don't have to ask twice.
02:47:10.399 --> 02:47:10.959
Yeah, exactly.
02:47:11.200 --> 02:47:11.360
Yeah.
02:47:11.680 --> 02:47:12.799
Especially if you're on one.
02:47:12.879 --> 02:47:14.000
You should know what one is.
02:47:14.319 --> 02:47:20.959
Finally, from Dan Fogelberg, Saint Old Lang Sin, Chad and Laura Wansick.
02:47:21.360 --> 02:47:26.079
Well, I think the other half is marrying yourself an architect who can keep you warm and safe and dry.
02:47:26.479 --> 02:47:27.440
But you, Laura.
02:47:28.479 --> 02:47:39.680
I think that the other half is having a bag that can keep food cold for hours in case you happen to spend time in the car with a past lover and you don't want your groceries to spoil.
02:47:40.159 --> 02:47:47.440
And the winner is CM Chuck for Superboy.
02:47:49.920 --> 02:47:52.559
This is Chuck's first win tonight.
02:47:59.920 --> 02:48:01.360
Young Dracula.
02:48:01.520 --> 02:48:02.959
I mean Superboy.
02:48:03.120 --> 02:48:04.799
This one has all the things, you know.
02:48:04.879 --> 02:48:06.239
I want to thank the Academy.
02:48:06.399 --> 02:48:11.360
I want to thank uh Jerry D, obviously, the totally rad Christmas family.
02:48:11.760 --> 02:48:15.360
Um, you know, Bram Stoker, I think, deserves some credit.
02:48:15.520 --> 02:48:22.399
Um, you know, Siegel and Schuster, you know, for creating Superman, and of course, eventually we get Superboy.
02:48:22.639 --> 02:48:27.440
But, you know, I never thought that we would have all those things in one place at one time.
02:48:27.680 --> 02:48:32.639
So uh I'm super glad uh to be able to put this one on my shelf.
02:48:32.719 --> 02:48:40.399
I I I check a couple of boxes here with this award, which is uh something Superman, something vampires, you know what I mean, and and Dracula.
02:48:40.479 --> 02:48:42.319
So this one's gonna be near and dear to me.
02:48:42.399 --> 02:48:43.760
Thank you, Academy, so much.
02:48:43.840 --> 02:48:49.680
Thank you, Jerry, and all the totally right uh Christmas uh people behind the scenes.
02:48:49.840 --> 02:48:52.639
Uh and to all the Friday nighters, too, the just another Friday night fans.
02:48:52.719 --> 02:48:54.159
We appreciate appreciate and love you guys.
02:48:54.239 --> 02:48:54.799
Thank you for voting.
02:48:55.280 --> 02:48:56.159
Good night.
02:49:14.319 --> 02:49:15.440
What a weird day.
02:49:15.920 --> 02:49:19.200
Um, did I did I like run from air or something?
02:49:19.520 --> 02:49:20.159
Briefly.
02:49:20.559 --> 02:49:23.040
Your platform was pretty freaking terrifying.
02:49:23.360 --> 02:49:25.680
It did have some pretty sick addiction though.
02:49:26.559 --> 02:49:29.360
And thankfully, nobody elected the ghost.
02:49:29.600 --> 02:49:31.840
Alright, let's finish this thing and get to the after party.
02:49:31.920 --> 02:49:36.639
Luckily, that's funded by independent donations, so it wasn't affected by the budget crisis.
02:49:36.719 --> 02:49:38.000
It's gonna be dope.
02:49:39.840 --> 02:49:44.719
And now, here to present the award for rattest guest named Charlie, it's Jerry D.
02:50:05.360 --> 02:50:09.760
Alright, our next category celebrates something very specific and very important.
02:50:09.920 --> 02:50:13.360
You see, over the years we've learned a universal truth about podcasting.
02:50:13.520 --> 02:50:18.399
If your name is Charlie, there's a very high probability you're going to end up on this show.
02:50:18.559 --> 02:50:24.959
So the nominees for Radis Guest Named Charlie are Charlie Agu for 80s Christmas Coloring Books.
02:50:25.360 --> 02:50:31.920
Alright, I'm gonna have to just come right out of the bat and say when we had coloring books when we were little, they were the generic ones.
02:50:32.079 --> 02:50:34.239
There was no story to them.
02:50:34.479 --> 02:50:35.520
Horrible drawings.
02:50:35.600 --> 02:50:38.399
Like, I I have not seen any of these until you had sent them to me.
02:50:38.559 --> 02:50:41.840
If I would have known that this was coloring books back in the day, I would have loved it.
02:50:41.920 --> 02:50:44.559
I don't know how I missed it or why I never saw it.
02:50:44.639 --> 02:50:54.559
I don't know where coloring books were kept in the stores, why I never saw them, but we always had like the generic dollar store coloring books that somehow were like 500 pages.
02:50:54.639 --> 02:50:55.520
Like they were like Bibles.
02:50:55.680 --> 02:50:56.000
They were huge.
02:50:56.399 --> 02:50:57.120
Oh, the huge books.
02:50:57.440 --> 02:51:00.879
Yeah, but but like you'd get one and it would last you like two years.
02:51:00.959 --> 02:51:04.000
So you might get, you know, by the time you get a new one, this one's destroyed.
02:51:04.079 --> 02:51:07.840
But I I've never had any of these that actually told a story through the whole book like that.
02:51:07.920 --> 02:51:09.680
So it was quite interesting to see it.
02:51:10.000 --> 02:51:14.239
Charlie Agu for 1985 Walt Disney World Very Merry Christmas Parade.
02:51:14.719 --> 02:51:17.280
And I'm sick of that crash comment about gravy train.
02:51:17.760 --> 02:51:19.440
This is this is gonna make me sound weird.
02:51:19.600 --> 02:51:22.399
I I am I'm not one of dog food people.
02:51:22.559 --> 02:51:26.799
No, I did not fuck these commercials when I was a kid made me want to try it.
02:51:26.879 --> 02:51:28.079
I I don't know what it was.
02:51:29.120 --> 02:51:34.879
Just the fact that they would show dried dog food, then there's this other dried dog food when you add water, all of a sudden it's bathed in gravy.
02:51:34.959 --> 02:51:36.959
It's like I I need to see what that tastes like.
02:51:37.120 --> 02:51:38.959
And then they're throwing the cheese wheel at it.
02:51:39.120 --> 02:51:40.799
But I've never I've never tried gravy chain.
02:51:40.879 --> 02:51:42.399
I gotta put that out on the out right now.
02:51:42.479 --> 02:51:43.120
I've never tried.
02:51:45.520 --> 02:51:53.280
And the winner is Charlie Agu for the Disney Parade.
02:51:55.440 --> 02:51:58.639
This is Charlie Agu's third win tonight.
02:52:00.239 --> 02:52:01.680
Wow, what an honor.
02:52:01.840 --> 02:52:03.440
The best guest named Charlie.
02:52:03.520 --> 02:52:06.159
It's a competitive category, mostly with myself, but still.
02:52:06.319 --> 02:52:08.719
I want to thank everyone who voted for me for this category.
02:52:08.799 --> 02:52:12.879
And also, a quick question: did anyone else just hear sleigh bells but like echoing?
02:52:13.040 --> 02:52:16.079
Because I'm pretty sure I just made eye contact with something up in the balcony.
02:52:16.159 --> 02:52:20.879
If I don't make it out of this haunted award show, just know I went out doing what I love, talking about Christmas.
02:52:21.040 --> 02:52:22.239
Thank you again, all who voted.
02:52:22.319 --> 02:52:25.280
And um, if anyone has holy water, I'll be backstage.
02:52:34.159 --> 02:52:40.879
And now it's my pleasure to introduce to you this year's president of the Academy of Eighties and Christmas.
02:52:41.040 --> 02:52:45.680
Once again, from the Lost Christmas podcast, it's Jeff Lofton.
02:52:54.959 --> 02:52:55.840
Thanks, Jerry.
02:52:56.000 --> 02:53:00.399
You know, the Academy of Eighties and Christmas always strives for excellence when it comes to choosing nominees.
02:53:00.639 --> 02:53:01.760
At least for the most part.
02:53:01.920 --> 02:53:07.920
I'm pleased to say that this year, only the rattest, most tubular guest hosts were nominated, except one, and you know who you are.
02:53:08.079 --> 02:53:09.040
I'm looking at you.
02:53:12.879 --> 02:53:25.200
The Academy made the decision this year to retire several of last year's loser impromptu emergency categories like Raddest Episode where the protagonist has an out-of-control mullet, and fattest life day episode, and no amount of Triple Dog Dare can bring them back.
02:53:25.760 --> 02:53:27.360
Seriously, it's not coming back.
02:53:27.600 --> 02:53:33.120
In the meantime, we had hours of destiny, Kmart, Alf, Disney, and cheesy sitcoms to get us through the year.
02:53:33.280 --> 02:53:41.280
So many good memories, but the best things in life are the people you love, the places you've seen, and the memories you've made along the way, especially at Christmastide.
02:53:41.360 --> 02:53:47.680
So thank you all for being a part of this season and for giving us a reason to celebrate together each April and revisit our childhoods.
02:53:54.719 --> 02:54:04.799
It's also my pleasure, as president, to present honorary raddies to Nick Picot, Alonzo Duralde, and Michael Sweet for special services to the Totally Rad Christmas Podcast.
02:54:12.159 --> 02:54:21.760
I'd like to reiterate that this year's Raddies are dedicated to a wonderful, totally rad Christmas All-Star who had a hard time these last few months with medical issues and has sadly passed away.
02:54:22.000 --> 02:54:23.120
William Bruce West.
02:54:23.440 --> 02:54:25.040
William, this one's for you, brother.
02:54:25.120 --> 02:54:31.840
Let's observe a quick moment of silence for William, the hero, and for all the heroes who've passed away this year, including Ozzie Osborne and Chris Ray.
02:54:32.000 --> 02:54:33.520
They will be sincerely missed.
02:54:40.879 --> 02:54:45.920
Thanks again, and don't forget to follow the Lost Christmas Podcast on all those podcast networks that you have.
02:54:46.239 --> 02:54:48.319
Follow us on any social media platform as well.
02:54:48.399 --> 02:54:52.559
And most importantly, keep celebrating Christmas, and we'll see you all at the after party.
02:55:02.000 --> 02:55:05.440
Finally, presenting the award we've been waiting for all evening.
02:55:05.600 --> 02:55:07.760
It's Jerry D and Shadow.
02:55:20.879 --> 02:55:21.120
Why?
02:55:21.360 --> 02:55:22.719
Because it's named after you.
02:55:23.200 --> 02:55:23.920
Exactly.
02:55:24.959 --> 02:55:26.000
Okay, fine.
02:55:26.559 --> 02:55:31.920
This award recognizes the people who have shown up on the show again and again and again.
02:55:32.479 --> 02:55:36.159
Sometimes so often that listeners are assuming they're full-time employment.
02:55:36.799 --> 02:55:37.600
They are not.
02:55:38.079 --> 02:55:38.879
No benefits.
02:55:39.120 --> 02:55:39.920
No dental.
02:55:44.079 --> 02:55:50.399
But these guests have helped make the show what it is, and honestly, at this point, they're basically part of the Totally Rad Christmas staff.
02:55:50.639 --> 02:55:58.000
So the nominees for the Jerry D award for most guest appearances are Anthony Caruso with forty three appearances.
02:55:58.799 --> 02:55:59.600
Jeremy Phelps.
02:56:00.159 --> 02:56:01.520
20 appearances.
02:56:02.239 --> 02:56:05.040
Tom Crow, 19 appearances.
02:56:05.680 --> 02:56:08.879
CJ Balum Jay, 20 appearances.
02:56:09.200 --> 02:56:11.920
Mike Westwall, 17 appearances.
02:56:12.559 --> 02:56:15.680
Jeff Lofton, 17 appearances.
02:56:16.079 --> 02:56:24.000
And the winner is Anthony Caruso, of course.
02:56:24.559 --> 02:56:27.680
This is Anthony Caruso's fourth win tonight.
02:56:32.479 --> 02:56:33.840
43 appearances.
02:56:34.000 --> 02:56:36.879
It uh sh does not feel like that at all.
02:56:36.959 --> 02:56:39.040
You know, um, I used to think I was bad at math.
02:56:39.120 --> 02:56:42.559
I want to talk to the guys counting episodes of Totally Red Christmas.
02:56:42.719 --> 02:56:46.239
Uh, you know, I don't know if they're L's back there or what they are.
02:56:46.319 --> 02:56:49.520
Uh, you know, maybe the Thundercats can't add properly.
02:56:49.680 --> 02:56:52.959
But uh either way, I will gladly accept this award.
02:56:53.200 --> 02:56:56.719
Um, you know, I have my own podcast.
02:56:56.799 --> 02:57:04.319
Shout out to Tom and Juliet as a pod, but there's no one else I'd rather host a second podcast with co-host a second podcast with but Jerry D.
02:57:04.719 --> 02:57:06.079
Jerry, this one's for you.
02:57:06.399 --> 02:57:07.600
This one's for the Academy.
02:57:07.680 --> 02:57:08.079
Thank you.
02:57:08.239 --> 02:57:08.479
Thank you.
02:57:08.639 --> 02:57:09.680
Merry Christmas.
02:57:21.120 --> 02:57:22.719
Here's to you, Anthony.
02:57:22.879 --> 02:57:26.239
Proof that sometimes being a guest can make you the star of the show.
02:57:27.440 --> 02:57:34.959
And honestly, after tonight, proof that being on this show also means you might survive a haunted mansion, a Victorian Ghost Mayor, and Ghostbusters sound effects.
02:57:37.840 --> 02:57:39.200
So that's the show.
02:57:39.360 --> 02:57:51.920
Huge thanks to everyone, all our listeners, my amazing co-hosts, and to the owners, question mark of this wonderful place for letting us crash here tonight, even though technically we ended up crashing in a haunted Victorian ballroom instead.
02:57:52.079 --> 02:57:56.959
And of course, a massive thanks to all our guests over the years, the Christmas Podcast Network, the Illumipodty.
02:57:57.280 --> 02:58:02.079

And if tonight made you feel like you just want a raddy, go leave us a review on iTunes.
02:58:06.079 --> 02:58:09.840
Not only does it help more people find the show, it spreads a little extra rad holiday cheer.
02:58:10.319 --> 02:58:19.760

02:58:20.399 --> 02:58:27.280
Again, on a serious note, our friend, colleague, and Totally Rad Christmas all-star William Bruce West passed away this last week.
02:58:28.239 --> 02:58:33.920
We continue to pray for his family and his soul, but we ask you to please, please help his family out.
02:58:34.239 --> 02:58:37.760
I'll have all the links to their GoFundMe on our socials to help them out.
02:58:38.159 --> 02:58:39.200
We'll miss you, William.
02:58:39.280 --> 02:58:40.959
Like Jeff said, we'll miss you.
02:58:42.479 --> 02:58:48.319
But for now, from all of us here at the Totally Red Christmas Awards, Merry Christmas to all and to all a safe night.
02:58:48.719 --> 02:58:53.600
And if you hear Victorian campaign speeches coming from your vacuum cleaner later, just ignore it.
02:58:54.479 --> 02:58:54.959
Later, dude.
02:59:25.680 --> 02:59:26.239
Nope.
02:59:26.479 --> 02:59:26.959
Nope.
02:59:27.200 --> 02:59:28.159
I'm out.
02:59:28.639 --> 02:59:30.879
These things just get weirder and weirder every year.
02:59:31.120 --> 02:59:31.920
They really do.
02:59:32.159 --> 02:59:35.200
I'm gonna say we do it in a parking garage.
02:59:35.520 --> 02:59:36.799
Abandoned mall?
02:59:37.120 --> 02:59:40.079
Let's do an open field where there can nothing can happen.
02:59:40.319 --> 02:59:42.319
We'll see who answers the phone.
02:59:42.559 --> 02:59:44.799
Right now let's party to the max.
02:59:50.159 --> 02:59:52.559
Ready seven on the island of magic.
