Episode #25: 2021 Christmas Party
Manage episode 315095213 series 2981344
Come on over to Jennifer’s house for her annual Christmas party! There’s plenty of cheesecake—and really bad egg nog—to go around. Olive will be there to greet you at the door, and if you can somehow make it past her, you’ll encounter an interesting collection of guests, such as Steve Allen, the first host of the Tonight Show, and the Anderson family from the old radio program Father Knows Best. Jennifer talks Christmas movies, plays a little game of Christmas movie trivia, and counts down the hottest gift ideas—of 1921. What other party could possibly include both synchronized swimmers and an annual visit to the Kmart of yesteryear (“Attention: Security to section 10!”)? No other party; just this one. So stop in, take off your coat, and stay awhile. It’s time to celebrate the season the Circa Sunday Night way, and we’re waiting for you to get the party started.
