Ep 19 - Why Does Everybody Love A Christmas Carol?

Pop Culture on the Apricot Tree

For our Christmas episode, we discuss the perennial favorite Charles Dickens novella A Christmas Carol, and why it has been made and re-made so many times in TV and film. We discuss the themes of repentance and re-integration, why the story is so Christian and yet barely mentions Christ. Our lively discussion compares and contrasts many incarnations of the story, from the 1935 black and white version to the Apple TV+ Spirited that was released just last month.
