Have A Meowy Catmas

LilRyanXmasIt’s Christmas, which means it’s time for Johnson and I to pull crackers again (with predictable results.) Then we chat about something Americans don’t have (“specterly locomotives”) and dig into some listener mail from Raphael, Ed Lee, John Killey and Mollie Bowling. Then, at long last, Jon takes the quiz and tries to figure out what “Old Glory” is, while Johnson samples “Babycham.” See you next year, everyone!

That’s Hawaiian for “Merry Christmas,” people! In this, our final show of 2013, we eat mince pies, discuss everything from aprés ski to Hawaii to ugly sweater parties, ponder why Americans call snack bars “concession stands,” reminisce about sharing confined spaces with smokers, pull christmas crackers, and I give Johnson another gift. Thanks for listening in 2013, and we’ll see you all next year!
