For this year's Christmas Special, I dug back deep into the Archives and dusted off the first one, from the very first Season of Prog-Watch back in 2014! On this program I was joined by my youngest (by about a minute) son, Paul, and we chatted and reminisced a little, and played some Christmas favorites from mostly Progressive artists. I updated the tracks to higher quality, and added a few since...

For this week's Prog-Watch I have put together a different kind of program. A death in my family and the need to travel to the funeral left me with no time to put together a proper show, and I didn't want to go with another From the Archives episode.
