I fell asleep earlier, for most of the third bad Netflix Christmas film in a row, I’m calling it Damaged Author With The Sex Eyes (And Also He Has A Cute Dog).

Apparently my germ-addled brain can only cope with working at about 8% capacity today, so I’m watching another terrible Netflix Christmas film. This one is called Hot Frosty, so I’m assuming someone is going to either fuck a snowman, or kill many snowmen on a freshly-boiled kettle spree.

Watched A Merry Little Ex-Mas last night, and as even Netflix Christmas films can’t get worse, right? (I have seen multiple Christmas Princes, they definitely can), Jingle Bell Heist, here we go.

Watching A Muppet Family Christmas. Utter, hallucinatory chaos. All of the Muppets and Sesame Street characters are spending Christmas together, there are songs about pebbles, and Swedish Chef wants to murder Big Bird and eat him.

Christmas is a-comin’, and I’ve got a top-up of festive cheer - and more importantly, some great songs - for you right here. Christmas soul, punk, ska, jazz, country & more, whether you’ve been naughty or nice.

‘Here I am, Holmes! I’ve fallen in another hole!’

Merry Christmas week, I woke up today with either a terrible cold or festive flu, which is a seasonal tradition of mine I was really hoping to give up.

If you turn this way up, you can hear how well a barking dog outside is toasting over the version side of Just Can’t Win My Soul.

Oh, insomnia. Gave up on trying to sleep at all about half an hour ago, and I’m now chair-dancing to the weird mashup of Sh-Boom and Oop Shoop that’s playing on a loop in my head. I am going to be a delight to deal with today.

I’ve long come to the conclusion that if the devil really does have all the best tunes, he must be a Louisiana man.

Little sneak preview of tomorrow’s show - it was very pleasing to play this when it was literally six days til Christmas, though it’ll be only five when you hear the show go out.

Juuust missed the cut for this year’s Snakes and Roundabouts Christmas special (I thought I was being ambitious with that many songs, and I was correct), but always deserving of another spin.

Another Snakes and Roundabouts in the can, available on Mixcloud tomorrow ~9pm GMT - a mixture of Christmas-loving and Christmas-hating tunes from 1921-2010, and hopefully an antidote to the same ol’ tired playlist we’re all sick and tired of by now.

Before those fucking AI adverts, I had no strong feelings on Lewis Capaldi. Now…I’d say I thought him a grade A cunt, if that didn’t seem like an unnecessary insult to vaginas.

Halfway through recording tomorrow’s Snakes and Roundabouts - a seasonal smorgasbord of treats for your ears, if I say so meself - but don’t sleep on my Haunted Jukebox Christmas Party if you’re feeling festive tonight:
