Description
It’s Christmas Eve! Tune in as we bring Advent to a close with the first Christmas special I ever remember watching, from 1978. **** ? Guests: Erin Evans (@mserinmevans). Joey O. (Y-Not Radio, Words with Nerds, @ImGonnaDJ24). **** ? Topics & Tangents: 1. My taped copy of this is interrupted in the middle by a WHYY telethon with Philadelphia TV legend Ed Cunningham. 2. The Count’s amazing ice-skating cape. 3. The wibbly-wobbly physics of Oscar’s trash can. 4. Olivia married the Predator. 5. An actual clue into how to get to Sesame Street. 6. A cameo by the seldom remembered Mr. Macintosh. 7. If you want to go read about Northern Calloway (David) and his off-screen troubles and tragic death, go right ahead. 8. The adorable 2-year-old girl too little for her own vocabulary trying to explain that Santa pushes a magic button to go down chimneys is now in her 40s. 9. Don’t Eat the Pictures: Sesame Street at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. 10. An oral history of Mr. Snuffleupagus’s revelation as not imaginary. 11. Oscar holds a broom like it’s Not His Broom. 12. Ernie’s pajamas look like the background of the “Trololo” video. 13. Joey makes my Christmas by assuring me I didn’t imagine The Candy Apple News Company. **** ?️♂️ After This Episode: Listen to my guest appearance on the Two Bad Neighbors podcast discussing my favorite Christmas-adjacent episode of The Simpsons, Marge Be Not Proud. Then go relax or take a nap or something. Hope you enjoy your Christmas! **** “Christmas Eve on Sesame Street” © 1978 Children’s Television Workshop.
