With Jason Dedrick. David drags us all into a Dedrick Family Christmas tradition and celebrates Boxing Day with his cousin Jason. Oh, and Ian is there too. This week they discuss Christmas: Ian’s – awkward; Jason’s – bereft of meaning; David’s – computerless and dogful; Christmas songs are extolled and vilified; A Christmas Carol gets it’s usual Christmas kicking; Ian can’t talk about it, he just can’t talk about it; the Dedrick Boxing Day tradition is somewhat explained – giving David and Jason a chance to impersonate their parents (and everyone loves that, right?); David should dress more appropriately around the house; and finally, the Great Debate: Hollandaise versus Bernaise – choose your sauce!
We keep forgetting to mention it on the show, but the “one topic/no tangent” episode is fast approaching. Get your topics in now for a chance to win a t-shirt and some other junk.
And, if you didn’t know, Ian and David have started a new podcast called Compleatly Beatles. They plan to listen to and discuss every Beatles album and song in order until they’re all done. Check it out on iTunes or here on the website!
Thanks for listening.

This is one of my favourite episodes. I don’t know what that says about me. More Eggs Dedrick please.
I’m not out to win a T-shirt or anything but I thought I’d suggest some episode topics:
– When animals attack
– When people attack
– Planes, trains, and automobiles
– Things that have aged badly
– Unexpected reactions (emotional or chemical)
– Weddings and funerals
– Childhood heroes gone bad
– The wrongest statements you’ve ever heard
– Fun with pseudoscience
– Hotel California and other hated songs
– The best lists
Holy wow! Thanks, Nina. These are great suggestions that we might just use for a later show even if they don’t get chosen for the “one topic/no tangents” episode. You have definitely put yourself in the running with this many topic suggestions!
Thank you, that’s very encouraging!
I think the key to topics is to make it sound like a Jeopardy category.
I need to start finding relatives to have on the show.
And yes, great topic ideas!
