This week we read the Christmas Classic that you have been expecting since the beginning, we talk A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. The traditional Christmas tale made famous by the likes of Michael Caine, Bill Murray, Patrick Stewart, Alistair Slim, and Mr. Magoo. We talk the ins and outs of poultry factory farming, hauntings, and Nic resists the urge to do a bad Michael Caine impression; though Kermit may escape.
Please note: we did kind of a rolling start, but after a few minutes, I inserted the theme and the episode starts in earnest.
Next time will be an unusual episode, but in January we return with A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy O’Toole and Death Comes for the Archbishop by Willa Cather.
Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa, and Happy New Year from all of us at Required Reading, you are the reason we still do this!
