A Merry Podmas Gift for You from So So / Cool

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! To get in the spirit, we’re striking the harp, joining the chorus, and donning our gay apparel, but unfortunately our blazing yule was turned off prematurely by a grumpy podcast Grinch. In this very special Holiday episode, we’re getting festive, talking about our favorite seasonal tunes, some of our guilty pleasures, and a few of those songs we may have heard one too many times.

We’re also bringing you our second trivia challenge – Yuletide edition! Find out if Matthew can avenge the stinging defeat from our last showdown. But be careful, even though it's December, there may be a spooky Spector lurking in this trivia. And join us for our listening session to find out: can Brandon convince Matt and Joe to like Michael Bublé? Will Brandon finally accept his true love for Bruce Springsteen? Can Joe successfully explain what he means by “Non-Holiday Holiday song”? All that and more!

We hope you enjoy this special episode. Thanks for taking time out of your holidays to listen, and thanks for listening all this year. Happy Holidays and Stay Frosti fans!
