Full-Court Miracle - Advent Calendar House

What this episode covers

🕎 It’s 2003, and a team of Hebrew school basketball players think they’ve found the ghost of Judah Maccabee in a random guy living in a van. 🎙️ April Ryley and J.W. Friedman join us for a Disney Channel Original Hanukkah Movie very, very loosely based on the true story of former college basketball star Lamont Carr and a yeshiva’s struggling team looking for a leader. 📺 “Full-Court Miracle” is available on Disney+. **** 💬 Topics & Tangents: Lamont Carr’s obituary in Virginia Magazine (2017) Psychocandy, an experimental pop duo of Cassie Steele (Julie) and Jase Blankfort (Stick). UVA’s Athletics website circa 2003. Alex’s prized Dr. J basketball card isn’t even a rookie card and isn’t that valuable. “Jewball,” a novel featuring the South Philadelphia Hebrew Association basketball team. Sadly, the only upload I could find of the hip-hop cover of the Dreidel song is a smartphone recording of a TV playing this movie. This basketball movie’s NBA star cameo is provided by Jerome Williams. **** 📼 Commercials: Microsoft Encarta Commercial (1995) Returning Student. **** “Full-Court Miracle” © 2003 Disney Enterprises, Inc. Theme song by Bronwen’s Ghost. Find us at adventcalendar.house. #s11 #2000s #hanukkah #disney
