This Wednesday, I'll be dedicating a bonus episode to a 1970s Christmas Carol adaptation so obscure it only aired once. Can these country music stars create a memorable modernized version of A Christmas Carol?

Tomorrow, it’s my episode on Scrooge (1951), considered by many to be the definitive version of A Christmas Carol. I’ve got a lot to say about this iconic film, and I hope you’ll tune in!

Tomorrow on Scrooge: A Christmas Carol Podcast, how much faith can you put in a version that can't even get the title or the spelling of Scrooge's name right?

I'll be happy to move on from my '40s and '50s TV Specials episode, mostly because I'll never have to think about Fredric March's fake nose again.
