Dr Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (1966)

We're having a very special conversation this week, specifically about a classic Christmas special! Dr. Seuss' iconic HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS cartoon is ubiquitous in culture, particularly around the holiday season. There have been live action and feature length animated ventures to broaden the story, but there's something very simple and special about that initial cartoon short directed by Chuck Jones. We dive into just what that might be this week, as well as all of the ways we can miss the point amidst our efforts to either claim or protect what we feel Christmas has become.

Also featuring a praising patron segment about the wonderful holiday special EMMET OTTER'S JUG-BAND CHRISTMAS, this is a brisk and lively episode we hope you'll really enjoy.
