In this bonus between seasons episode, Marv is joined by his friends Kev Brown (The Tom Petty Project/Seaside Pod Review/Ultimate Catalogue Clash), Mike Lord (Tabletop Genesis), Jason Barnard (The Strange Brew Podcast), and Stephen Nicholson (Trimming The Musical Fact/Trimming The Movie Fat), to discuss the festive season, as well as their five must hear songs for the season. This may or may not include Iron Maiden, The Pogues, Greg Lake, Paul McCartney, Rage Against The Machine, and others that get mentioned. Enjoy, and have a very merry Christmas.

Marv chats with Ella Gale, the creator and director of the audio drama Candy Claus Private Eye. Candy is the illegitimate daughter of Santa Claus, who is a private eye. While being a private eye in the big world, she is approached by the elf Minty, about the potential murder of an elf, which forces her to return to the North Pole, in order to solve the crime. In the process of this she comes across characters such as Dr Claus (otherwise known as Mrs Claus), the Sugar Plum Fairy, Tinfoil, Santa Blob, and many more characters.  This is the final official episode of season eight. There will be special episodes between now and season nine, which will be coming in February on 2025.  I wish everyone a wonderful holiday season. Take care. 

Marv chats with Rosie Pye, the creative director for Blanchard House, who produce many dramatized documentaries. This time Marv and Rosie talk about the show Extrasensory, a show that uses the true story of the Pollock family to look into every aspect of the subject of reincarnation. Is the father John Pollock telling the truth, misguided, or manipulating the story of how his daughters died in an horrific road traffic accident and reincarnated as his twin daughters, who were born soon after?

Marv chats with author, journalist, and blogger Madeline Bocaro, to discuss their blogging about popular culture, as well as Madeline's exceptional book In Your Mind - The Infinite Universe of Yoko Ono.
