from Tell The Damn Story · host Alex Simmons & Chris Ryan

Yes, Creative Are Allowed To Nerd Out And Still be Professionals! Here's a special holiday episode from us to you. In this gathering of creatives, cohosts Alex Simmons and Chris Ryan explore the holiday classic "March of the Wooden Soldier," which has remained a Thanksgiving tradition for many. It's a 90-year-old film that found its intergenerational following, especially around the New York tri-state area. Joining us is our good friend, Caseen Gaines, a pop culture historian and author who brings his knowledge and unbridled enthusiasm. Together, we'll explore the timeless charm of "March of the Wooden Soldiers," starring the legendary comedic duo Laurel and Hardy, from their nuanced character portrayals to the film's comedic brilliance and heartwarming narrative.  We're unpacking how the film's commitment to character-driven storytelling has kept it fresh and beloved over the years.
