Listen to me and Helen Zaltzman swap Christmas songs on the second episode of No Skip Christmas: A Christmas Music Playlist Podcast. Helen hosts the Allusionist and Answer Me This. What song from my list made Helen ask, “Why have you done this?”

Listen to me and Justin McElroy swap Christmas songs on the debut episode of No Skip Christmas: A Christmas Music Playlist Podcast. Justin co-hosts My Brother My Brother and Me and other podcasts. Do I accept or reject songs from Pearl Baily, Ariana Grande and Bill Murray?

It’s exactly early enough to start talking about Christmas music! My new podcast miniseries No Skip Christmas is out now with its first two episodes featuring Justin McElroy and Helen Zaltzman. 🎄

You’d think it would be difficult to laugh while taking selfie but @asherperlman.bsky.social’s new collection of New Yorker cartoons makes it easy!

Glanced at an AARP magazine cover in a waiting room and this Rod Stewart headline feels like something Alan Partridge would write.

Sometimes the 4th means watching TCM with your parents and you don’t really care that you can’t see anything.
