336: Rankin & Bass & Charlie Brown’s Christmas

December 12, 2025

This week, Dave, Jack and Hunter cozy up by the mic to dive into the TV specials that shaped an entire generation of Christmas memories. From the whimsical stop-motion magic of Rankin/Bass to the timeless warmth of A Charlie Brown Christmas, the guys revisit the stories, songs, and characters that defined December for millions.

Expect spirited debates and nostalgia over the best Rankin/Bass deep cuts, nostalgic love for Charlie’s jazzy score and moments. Whether you grew up with Rudolph, Frosty, Santa Claus Is Comin’ to Town, or the Peanuts gang, this episode is a festive trip down holiday lane you won’t want to miss.

Grab some hot cocoa, press play, and get merry with us!
