🎁🎄🎅 📺 🍺 It’s Thursday situation comedy enthusiast! And that means another episode of “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful ,” another 11th episode from a season of a show, and another play on someone stealing Christmas. And the cool thing about today’s episode – an 11th from its 2nd season – is that it actually aired on December 11th. Yup, today’s episode aired exactly 19 years ago today. Imagine if I sai...

🎁🎄🎅 📺 😡 It’s Wednesday, Christmas lovers – and you know what that means! It means, um…oh it means another day of “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful !” Today I got back to 1991 to discuss a show – that I remembered being funnier than what I watched today. Show Title:   Dear John Episode Title:   “‘Twas the Fight Before Christmas” Original Air Date:   December 27, 1991 Season:  4 Episode:  11

🎁🎄🎅 📺 🩺 Happy Tuesday to all you people who celebrate....Tuesdays !

🎁🎄🎅 📺 🎺 Week two of “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful ” kicks-off just like week one did – by going back to the 1950s. This time to a show I actually watched as a kid. For real! Show Title:   Dennis the Menace Episode Title:   “The Christmas Story” Original Air Date:   December 20, 1959 Season:  1 Episode:  11

🎁🎄🎅 📺 🏫 Happy Sunday Christmas-lovers! Today “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful ” goes back to school and goes all the way back to the year 2024 to talk about TWO episodes of a show for the price of one! Not exactly a “two-part” episode of television, but they compliment each other and they did air on the same night so…Hey, I make the rules! Show Title:   Abbott Elementary Episode Title:   "Winter...

🎁🎄🎅 📺 📷 It’s the first Saturday of “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful ” my friends, and today I stayed in the 20th Century – but only by a couple years as I went back to 1998 to watch a show I every so often I think, should I have watche that show when it was first on? Should I go back and watch it now that I can stream it on Hulu? Well, you’re going to have to listen to find out the answer to that que...

🎁🎄🎅 📺 🎉 🥳 Happy Friday Televisionaries! We’ve reached the end of the work week, well not really, since " Sitcom All Ye Faithful " goes seven days a week until Christmas day. Today, I watch a show from the 70s that I am not familiar with at all except that I know it stars the legendary Cloris Leachman and is a spin-off of the legendary  Mary Tyler Moore Show . Hey, it’s my second spin...

🎁🎄🎅📺 🏛️ It’s day four of “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful ,” my Holidarians, and today we are heading back to the 1980s. I definitely watched this show early on, so there’s a good chance I watched this when it first came on – but I have zero memory of it and zero memory of a big Oscar winning star that came out of this show. And no, before you go look it up, Sinbad did not win an Oscar. I watched this...

🎁🎄🎅📺 🐷 On the third day of “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful ,” my true love gave to me, a classic episode of TV…Yes today, we go back to the 60s to a comedy classic as I watched an episode of Green Acres for the first time since I was probably in junior high. It was on Nick and Nite – I’m not that old. You can  watch this episode of “Green Acres” for free right now on YouTube . Show Title:   Green Ac...

🎁🎄🎅📺 ✈️ Welcome back, Christmateers! It’s day two of “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful ” and today I moved up about 40 years to the 1990s to revisit a show that I was not a regular viewer of – but I probably should have been. What makes this choice even more interesting is this is the third episode of television that’s been featured on Sitcom All Ye Faithful from the night this aired back in 1995. Back...

🎁🎄🎅📺 🚬 Happy Holidays, television fans! It’s here! It’s here! Year Five of “ Sitcom All Ye Faithful ” is finally here! For our first episode of this season, I went back 72 years ago to watch an episode of “Make Room For Daddy” before it turned into the “Danny Thomas Show.” If you like a 10 minute song/dance/joke club routine in the middle of your television episodes, than boy oh boy do I have...

Surprise! Golden Jawgust is not over yet! Well, okay it is - But JAWSTEMBER is here! Today! And only for today (imagine if I just kept going and started over?) Today I wanted to - well I wanted to sing a September song, that's mostly what I wanted to do. But I thought it would be fun to talk about some extra Jaws related stuff. Some silly. Some trying to be serious. Some trying to be fun. None...

We did it! We made it! The final day of Golden Jawgust ! Today, not only did I celebrate the final moments of JAWS - but I also celebrated the ENTIRE movie as I went to see at our nearby AMC theater on their IMAX Screen! Not only that – but I spoke to my  good friend Jason  who also went to see it down in FL – but his experience was very different – and I was jealous of all of it! As this project...

What a great day today was! Not only did I spend the afternoon/evening up in Maine with my wife - but I also got to record a few things for the today's penultimate episode of Golden Jawgust ! And on top of that, I get to share an amazing Cameo video I got from listener - and contributor to the show - Mike B. And of course I cover the next 4 minutes of JAWS - where Quint meets his demise, The O...

Can you believe that after today there are only two episodes of Golden Jawgust left? But before I swim off into the horizon, today I am lucky enough to not only have one - but TWO returning guests as my buddies Eric and Chris join the show and meet for the first time! Today is spent almost entirely underwater with Hooper and his anti-anti-shark cage. That is not a typo.

Today on Golden Jawgust , we honor the late great Robert Shaw, who we lost on this day forty-seven years ago. I also talk about how there's finally a JAWS perfume . About time! In today's segment, the Orca is dead in the water and the three men realize that their only option is Hooper's cage. He was up for suggestions, but there weren't any. Here is a copy of Robert Shaw's Obit...

It's the final Prince Spaghetti Day of Golden Jawgust ! Today we spend some time with some barrels, talk about a few more toys , and read a more great comments (which is why we talked about those toys!) Oh, and the shark is now chasing the Orca!

Happy Tuesday Golden Jawgust ! We've been flying this podcast all month long and while we're not ready to land just yet, I feel like we're starting to make our final approach. After today there are only five more episodes left! Can you believe it!? In today's segment - we see a shark, a couple barrels, there's some shooting - some smiling - and we get another quotable line from...

Today on Golden Jawgust we start to say goodbye to days! After twenty-five podcasts we're now down to our final Monday of the JAWGUST. Today, I think it's safe to say this is the most we've seen the shark yet! Just don't try to radio the Coast Guard to tell them about it - it won't end well.

I'm tired and I want to go to bed. But not before bringing you another magical episode of Golden Jawgust ! Today we get the end of the speech and a hull's almost breached. And there's singing .

Happy Saturday Golden Jawgust listeners! Can you believe we have less than ten days to go!? Today was another big moment in JAWS. Pretty much the entirety of today's segment and today's episode was Quint's classic speech. Along with today's segment, I also played a cool clip from Steven Spielberg talking about Robert Shaw and that moment, I referenced another great Daily Jaws artic...

Happy Friday Golden Jawgust faithful! This evening my wife and I went to a New Hampshire casino. Why? What's the significance? Well, as I mention on the show a slot machine I played does somewhat stay on the theme of JAWS . And in today's segment, Quint takes his first shot at the shark ( learn more about his harpoon gun thanks to Daily Jaws ) and then the guys just wait. And drink.

Welcome to my latest episode. This is the big one, the one I've been waiting for all my life....Two days of in a row with "boat" in the title? Where else in your podcast library are you going to find something like that except Golden Jawgust ? Well, maybe a podcast about boats. In this four minutes we have one of the most iconic movie quotes of all time . I also talk about a compilatio...

Day 20 of Golden Jawgust is here! Tonight I read another comment from a superfan and play a voicemail from a familiar voice. And we even go outside the studio for a bit of unplanned recording. In today's segment, they may just have made first contact with the fish (even if Hooper isn't convinced). I wonder what tomorrow will bring....

Nineteen days in and tonight's Golden Jawgust might have been the most fun I've had all month! My longtime friend since high school, and Geek Mentality veteran, Eric joined me tonight for his 12th time on the show. We talked about a fairly quiet four minutes. There was some foreshadowing. Some arguing. Something biting. But most importantly - there was some drinking!
