And today's episode is all about... the Christmas Special! Yes, we know it's quite meta, but it's worth a chat. We talk about the media that defines this time of year, from episodes of American sitcoms, to A Christmas Story, to the Doctor Who Christmas Special. We chat about the differences between American and English culture (as of 11 years ago), and what specific type of nostalgia we reach for.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Our Socials</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/vivianasimos\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>Vivian's Instagram</u></a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/lilistprince\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>Holly's Instagram</u></a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/fanofthatpod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>The Pod's Instagram</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Buy Our Books!</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/A-History-of-Fans-and-Fandom-Hardback/p/49085\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>Buy Holly's Book!</u></a></p><p><a href=\"https://reaktionbooks.co.uk/work/cosplay-and-the-dressing-of-identity\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>Buy Vivian's Book!</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Fan Of That is now on Patreon!</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://www.patreon.com/fanofthatpod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>Go support us over there!</u></a></p><p><br></p><p>Music for this episode was Nowhere Land by Kevin MacLead Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0</p><p><br></p><p>Logo by Moira Daykin, <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/mecha_moira/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>@mecha_moira</u></a> on instagram</p><p><br></p><p>This episode was produced by Vivian Asimos and Holly Swinyard</p>","author_name":"Vivian Asimos and Holly Swinyard"}
