Episode 17: Haunted Mansion Holiday and Thematic Synthesis

In this chilling episode, Alice and Buddy take on the Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay, featuring all of our favorite characters from The Nightmare Before Christmas! Discussions include: Thematic Synthesis between the two rides, the effectiveness of the combination, and the film’s place in holiday movie re-watch rosters. We were really surprised with what we ended up deciding—we hope you are, too! Those Happy Places is produced by Alice White and edited by Buddy Duquesne. Our theme music is "Golden Gate" by The California Feetwarmers, featuring Phil Alvin. Additional music comes from Podington Bear, available through the Free Music Archive.
