21. A Charlie Brown Christmas - Twenty Fifthmas part 3
Today, we’re going all the way back to 1965 for a true original — A Charlie Brown Christmas. The very first television special based on Charles M. Schulz’s beloved Peanuts comic strip, and one that somehow did something completely different. No laugh track, no flashy animation, just quiet moments, simple music, and a story about a kid trying to figure out why Christmas doesn’t feel like Christmas anymore. With Vince Guaraldi’s unforgettable jazz score, that little scraggly tree, and a group of kids who somehow managed to be both hilarious and brutally honest, this special carved out a place in holiday history that still holds up today. It didn’t just entertain — it said something. And in the middle of all the commercialism and chaos, it reminded us to slow down and actually think about what the season means. So whether you're putting on your Christmas Play, or trying to find that perfect Christmas Tree, this one’s for you. Tonight we’re rewinding to a time of Beagle's Showing off their Figure Skating Skills, Children being brutally mean to each other, and a Christmas special that reminds us — "What Christmas is all about Charlie Brown"

20. Scrooged - Twenty Fifthmas part 2
Ttoday, we’re heading back to 1988 for Scrooged, starring Bill Murray and directed by Richard Donner. This isn’t your traditional Christmas Carol — it’s louder, funnier, a little sharper around the edges, and completely soaked in late-’80s energy. Murray plays Frank Cross, a fast-talking, ratings-obsessed television executive who’s forgotten just about everything that makes Christmas… well, Christmas. That is, until he gets the full Ebenezer Scrooge treatment, courtesy of three ghosts determined to show him where his life went wrong — and where it could still go right. What makes Scrooged such a perfect retro holiday movie is how it takes Charles Dickens’ timeless story and filters it through neon lights, big personalities, and that uniquely ‘80s mix of cynicism and heart. It’s funny, it’s chaotic, it’s occasionally weird — but underneath it all is the same message that’s been passed down since Dickens first wrote it: that kindness matters, redemption is possible, and sometimes it takes a wake-up call to remember what really counts. So whether you're flipping through the Sears wish book, or trying to record the annual showing of It's a Wonderful Life, this one’s for you. Tonight we’re rewinding to a time of big sweaters, big laughs, and Christmas movies that reminded us — sometimes loudly — what the season was really all about. Let’s talk Scrooged, right here on RadioWayne’s Twenty Fifthmas… God Bless Us, Everyone!

19. Home Alone - Twenty Fifthmas part 1
Today’s episode is extra special, because this is part 1 of our Christmas Series called Twenty Fifthmas! Every month on the 25th we’ll be sharing a new Christmas themed Episode to bring some joy and cheer our way all year long! Today we’re talking about one of the most beloved holiday films ever made: Home Alone. Released in 1990 and directed by Chris Columbus, Home Alone became an instant seasonal classic. It’s the story of young Kevin McCallister — a kid who wakes up to find his entire family has accidentally left him behind for the holidays. What follows is pure movie magic: a mix of Christmas warmth, childhood bravery, and some of the most memorable slapstick ever put on film. The movie captured exactly what it felt like to be a kid at Christmastime — the freedom, the fear, the excitement, and that feeling that your house, your neighborhood, and your imagination were one big adventure waiting to happen. From sledding down the stairs to defending his home from a pair of bumbling burglars, Kevin showed us all what courage (and a little creativity) could look like. And beyond the laughs and iconic moments, Home Alone became a true cultural touchstone. It’s one of those movies we return to every December — a warm reminder of holidays past, of childhood wonder, and of the simple joy of watching the Wet Bandits get absolutely wrecked by paint cans. So pour some hot cocoa, grab a slice of cheese pizza, and let’s take a festive trip back to 1990 as we revisit the yuletide brilliance of Home Alone, right here on RadioWayne’s Twenty Fifthmas… Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal.
