Love American Style: Sexual Harrassment

Our Valentine’s Day gift to our listeners. Ellie, Bernice and Thad attempt to peek under the skirt of America’s most shameful, chronic behavior issue. How did a society founded by religious puritans 400 years ago become so – yuck - pervy?! Is every allegation automatically justified? How do we purge our wicked behavior and thoughts? Can we be redeemed or forgiven? Can we even have an intelligent conversation on this topic -- without erupting into angry shouting? That’s what we hope to find out.

Ice Wars: Tanya Harding V Nancy Kerrigan

In celebration of the 2022 Winter Olympics, we take you back to the most sinister scandal in Winter Olympics history. Two world class figure skaters – both Americans – are expected to be top contenders for medals. Then, only weeks before the Games are to begin, one of them is attacked by a hired hitman with a club. His intention is to seriously injure the athlete so she is unable to skate. Who was behind this treachery and why did they do it? Join us as we drill deep into this bizarre sports rivalry and its unexpected consequences.

The Beatles Break-up: A Long And Winding Road

On the occasion of the release of a very successful new 8 hour documentary that takes us back 52 years to 1969, we re-open the celebrity gossip file on the breakup of the still-iconic rock band, The Beatles. We ask tough questions: were they over-rated in the 60’s? Should anyone even care about these guys this many decades later? Ellie, Bernice, and I are joined by two special guests. One is a classically trained, professional musician for 35+ years. The other was a teenager in the early 60’s when “Beatlemania” was a huge cultural phenomenon in the US, the UK, and much of the Western world. You won’t want to miss this one - cat nip for Beatles fans!

It begins with a dejected Santa Claus, in disguise, telling a man, “Christmas is not coming this year…” WOW! What a pitch for a movie. How did the filmmakers do?

Big Apple Christmas?

Christmas in the USA today is not Christmas without New York City. The Macy’s Parade on Thanksgiving, the giant tree in Rockefeller Center, the Rockettes, etc. But how did NYC become the Christmas Capital for the U.S. - and even the English-speaking world? Does it even make sense? We invite 3, life-long New Yorkers to discuss. 2 are not even Christian. These are terrific friends of this pod, the METS MOB, famous from other podcasts. And we get a baseball update on the Max Scherzer signing and the player lockout by owners. We also feature a very funny cold open that you won’t want to miss! If you don’t care for baseball, swish to 23:18 to get right to the Christmas stuff after the open.
