Show Notes
This week Tom and Julie get in the holiday spirit by recounting the story of a Christmas Carol whilst adding their own additions, and reflecting on what a year 2025 has been! Plus they watched clips of Woody Allen failing to blow out his 90th birthday candle, the return of NJ town hall dancing man, and Julie reveals the truth about her marriage to Mickey Rooney. Apologies for the occasional mic crackle! Will have that fixed for next time.
