Welcome to Day 6 of 12 Days of Christmas Movies with Friends! 12 days, 12 Christmas movies, 12 friends and 12 food/drink pairings from around the world! • In today’s unplanned crossover episode with The Naked Man Podcast, Candy Cane Greene and his friend Kyle Dickinson have a Christmas feast with the Cratchits, enjoying Christmas Pudding and a Smoking Bishop cocktail as they discuss BBC’s version of A Christmas Carol (1984). • What Christmas carol do Kyle and Andy attempt to sing? Is A Christmas Carol a time travel movie? Why does Andy feel bad for Jacob Marley? How does capitalism fail even the Scrooges of the world? Is this a commentary on Margaret Thatcher era England? How does Christmas change as you go from childhood to adulthood to parenthood? Why are carols so important to Kyle? What creates that proprietary blend of magic and melancholy omnipresent during the holidays? Are Kyle and Andy the cutest? • All these answers and more come for those willing to journey to England and with the help of the Ghost of Christmas Past, return back to childhood and rediscover the magic of Christmas. • This is a cinematic sleigh ride undertaken to promote The Los Angeles Mission, a nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating homelessness by providing food, drink, shelter, health care and employment to those who need it. • To donate to the LA Mission: https://losangelesmission.org/ways-to... • Today's movie: A Christmas Carol (1984), based on a story by Charles Dickens.
