November can only mean one thing: new winter holiday music!!!! Oh, and also Jam’s birthday. For the occasion, they have selected one holiday song from November 2025 and one from this very month at time of writing, November 2026! From last year, “Auld Lang Syne II” by Anjimile is a New Year’s song perfect for anyone who loves to be emotionally devestated by music for reasons they don’t fully understand. Then fresh off the metaphorical presses, “Take Me Home (4 Christmas)” by Olivia Rodrigo is a neo-New-Wave pop anthem to dance to, and also perhaps write a gender studies thesis on the tensions of transgressive and regressive gender dynamics in girlypop to, and also perhaps experience complicated new forms of intimacy to!
The ranking music in this episode is “Christmas Wrapping” by The Waitresses.
