As per tradition, it's time for our annual alternative Yuletide episode! Consider this your festival prescription to escape the carols that you are being bludgeoned to senselessness elsewhere. Our counter-Christmas programming primarily focuses on John Debney & Leon Redbone's music from the 2003 modern holiday classic Elf, so now you can know Santa too.
