Happy Anniversary, Cassettes! Two years ago today, we released our first episode about the various versions of \u201cA Christmas Carol.\u201d Things were different back then, in podcasting and in life. Our only goal back then, was to make each episode better than the last. We still strive for that, putting as much work into the show as our schedules will allow. We love podcasting, and we\u2019re incredibly blessed to have listeners like you.\xa0\nSo, we\u2019re closing out the month with an exciting episode about one of the biggest pieces of the Christmas season: Christmas Music!\nChestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir--and Bing Crosby--and Mariah Carey--and literally every artist ever--yes, these are the signs that it\u2019s Christmas! There are thousands of Christmas songs, but every year we tend to hear the same few, covered by different artists. Some of these compositions were written specifically for the screen, and made such an impact on audiences, that they became instant Christmas classics. So today, we are taking a look at the film and TV origins of popular Christmas songs!\xa0\nHere is a an accompanying playlist for this episode!\nShow notes and sources here\nThanks for listening!
