Jackalope Tales – Tinsel, Tease, and T & A Dec 25, 2024

Show notes

This week on Jackalope Tales, we unwrap a holiday double feature you’ll wish had stayed buried in the vault. Original Toadies members Charles & Lisa take a boozy, bumpy sleigh ride through two Christmas specials that jingled way too many bells. First we stumble into the Dean Martin Christmas Special, a drunken snow-globe fever dream of slurred carols, misplaced mistletoe, and eggnog-fueled chaos. Then we shimmy into the Hee Haw Christmas Hoedown, where “old South charm” took a dark, uncomfortable turn faster than a reindeer on black ice.

Get ready for festive flubs, naughty nostalgia, and enough awkward laughs to carry you through the season. Tune in for the holiday tales television forgot – and probably wants to keep that way. [EP 66]
