About this episode
Welcome to the Everything 80s Christmas spectacular, spectacular! And in a genuine coincidence, this episode is being released on Festivus—making it a true Festivus MIRACLE!
OK, here's the plan: we will start by looking at a beloved 1980s Christmas movie, and then the sequel to it—which you've probably never heard of. Next, we will take a deep look at an iconic TV special from the 1960s that became an integral part of the holidays for kids in the 80s—and many other decades—Rankin/Bass' Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
So bundle up in your coziest and ugliest Christmas sweater, grab a mug of some sort of nog, and let's settle in for the Christmas special!
