Episode Episode 61: At The Christmas Ball

Episode 61: At The Christmas Ball


In its fourth (semi) annual edition, the holiday playlist has officially dropped the name Christmapodtacular. What started as a joke title and excuse to post while the WIDR studios were shut down kind of stuck. But after a year off it's time for it to go way. Instead, the Christmas extravaganzas will follow suit from every other episode and take on a title from one of the tracks within. This year's is a tip of the cap to the immortal Bessie Smith: At The Christmas Ball.

This year's edition was a great excuse to find some gems from Lightnin’ Hopkins, Sam Bush, and a delightful New Years Eve track in Andrew Bird's cover of Auld Lang Syne. However, should this playlist not satiate your unquenchable desire for all things x-mas, regular Guest DJ Logan Ryan Smith offers the lovely Happy Christmas, Shitknockers! While fellow Guest DJ Marc Consolazio has both the more contemporary A Christmas Miracle! and the self-explanatory
Your Basic Classic Christmas. There. That's well over four hours of Christmasy goodness. Don't say we never gave you anything.
