Wow!

On this merry (and scary) episode, we tackle the burning question that's on everyone's minds right now: which Christmas songs best describe each of Stephen King's books? Nonbelievers might read this and say, "that concept doesn't make any sense," and "can you even make a whole episode about that?" But it makes a lot of sense, actually. And we did. Enjoy.

Happy Thanksgiving, gamers! We're back with our annual tradition of chatting with the one, the only, THE Miles Luna (@TheMilesLuna) about all sorts of stuff: the fine art of hamboning, Wife Swap, New Orleans, ranking horror movie threats, Stargate (and how f*ckable James Spader is in it), having extra bones, our preferred The Purge (2013) activities, and more! Having Miles on is always a joy, and this ep is a real treat. Check out our Patreon for video and ad-free eps and support the show at patreon.com/leightonnight!

We're thrilled to have the incredible musician, podcaster, and skeptic George Hrab back on the show to talk about his upcoming Christmas album "Stocking Stuffer" as well as a grab bag of topics as diverse and interesting as George himself. Leighton's out sick for this one so it's just George and Brian, but hoo boy do they get into it. Lots of music talk in this one, folks. LOTS of it. Get George's albums at georgehrab.bandcamp.com, and his new one drops on Thanksgiving. Follow us on Twitter at @leightonnight and on Instagram/TikTok at @leighton_night.
