’Tis The Grinch Holiday Podcast

Grinch is over Secret Santa gift exchanges [2:54] — the only gift he wants is NO CHRISTMAS! Then, some very good luck: Fortune Feimster is here [6:40]! There’s a lot of talk of wienerschnitzel, but she didn’t bring a single hot dog for Max. Rude! She leaves just before the Whoville police show up, ready to arrest Grinch for a crime he didn’t commit [16:17]. Ugh, why are the holidays always so stressful?!

Grinch is disturbed to learn that not all of his listeners spend the season in freezing cold weather [2:52], but hey, not everyone is blessed enough to live on a snowflake.

He did it last year and he’s doing it again: Prank calls are back, baby [3:55]! Not that we’re giving a thumbs-up to prank calls — it’s only cool when Grinch does it - and even then they usually blow up in his furry green face! Speaking of cool, Grinch conducts a slam dunk interview with NBA All-Star DeAndre Jordan [6:56]! Then, a pivotal turn in the case of the missing letters to Santa [20:35]. Let’s just say if there’s one source we can always trust… it’s Max’s nose.
