Description

In our second annual holiday episode, we revisit the classic tale of a boy and his BB gun with A Christmas Story, and the lesser known book it was based on: In Go We Trust, All Others Pay Cash (phew) by Jean Shepard. We break down the unique Venn diagram of source material this movie was created from, and gain better insight into this film that has played in the background of so many of family gatherings.

Cover to Credits is a bi-weekly podcast that analyzes books and their movie adaptations. Hosts Ian George and Adina Hilton cover a variety of genres, critiquing both the film and novel it's based on, while trying to understand what makes a good adaptation. Stories are also frequently viewed from a feminist lens, where representation, gender roles, and other elements are often times explored.
