Happy New Year and thanks for listening.

A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE! Jon calls in from his mother's dining room in Virginia so we can have a show*. Robert decides that Eagleheart's Paradise  Rising, Episode 6 (or 17), "Joe" is probably his favorite and then doesn't seem to be able to explain why. Note taking is discussed. Brian Setzer is dissed. Tom Skerrit is recalled. Frank Stallone is mentioned. An unsuccessful contest is repeated. Listen to this one while wrapping that Eagleheart Season One DVD you bought for your Dad. Merry Christmas to all who like that stuff and have a great week to those who don't. Rat-a-tat-tat, boom-boom, Baby!

*thanks to those who helped.

Robert goes a little "Alex Jones" & Jon's cooler head prevails when the bird-boys talk about Eagleheart's Paradise Rising, Episode 5, "America".

Topics Covered: Jane Seymour's Open Heart Jewelry, Neil Sedaka, Peter Allen, Conan writers, Sammy Hagar's autobiography, and CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS!

Enjoy.
