289: Why Don’t You And I Just Roll On Back To The Playroom? (The Christmas Toy)

July 26, 2022

Happy Tuesday, Christmas Fanatics! This is a special week, as we're celebrating our 5th Anniversary here at "Tis the Podcast"! We hope you enjoyed the bonus "Spectacular" episode yesterday, which was full of music, movie clips, and lots of special guests!

This week, we're joined by our dear friend (and biggest Muppet fan we know!), Mike Westfall, of "Advent Calendar House Podcast" to discuss the 1986, Jim Henson Christmas special, "The Christmas Toy"! Listen as we dive into the film and its similarities to Pixar's "Toy Story", cast Anthony in a Christmas movie, fawn over LEGOs, discuss the joys of VHS recorded specials, relive the trauma of getting rid of old toys, and much, much more! This is one fun, festive episode you want to make sure not to miss! So, settle back and enjoy! And, as always, thanks for your love and support, y'all! 🎅🏻 🎄 🎁 🦌 ⛄️ 🦉 🔔 🚂 🤶🏻 ❄️ 🎀
