Description
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! (And boy has it been a year!) Following in the footsteps of show-biz luminaries like Jon Stewart, Steven Colbert, and the cast of Star Wars, we hosted a HOLIDAY SHOW (non-denominational) in front of a live online pseudo-studio audience. Stuart and Andie entertained guests:Santa Zero - originator of the now-infamous SantaCon phenomenonMrs. Claus - founder of Burning Man’s first-ever theme camp, Christmas CampTubatron and his Flaming Tuba performing a Hanukkah songReverend Billy and Savitri D of the Church of Stop ShoppingAnd it wouldn’t be the holiday season without Caveat Magister selling us on Decommodification. Join us for how Krampus cramps us, how COVID is an 8-foot-tall dominatrix, how “Gifting” is so close to “Grifting,” and how the Cacophony Society is so Kumbaya now, in our final episode of 2020.Reminisce with us, and celebrate and speculate.Portland SantaCon 1996 / “You’d Better Watch Out”Cacophony Society: Santasm, Santacon, Santarchy, ad nauseumReverend Billy and the Church of Stop ShoppingLIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
