Season’s Eatings! This very food-centric episode kicks off with a listener request. While he’s perhaps best known to Christmas nerds for his work in White Christmas, we totally ignore that while discussing Danny Kaye’s “Eat Eat Eat” and instead try to discern how light-hearted this holiday patter song actually is. We follow up this deceptively complex piece with a song so utterly devoid of deeper meaning that Carrie Underwood literally titled it “Stretchy Pants”.
The ranking music in this episode is “8 Days of Latkes” by Ben Schwartz.
Thank you to Myles for requesting “Eat Eat Eat”!
