For many who suffer from an unforeseen accident, seasonal depression, overwhelming problems or just plain stress Christmas can be difficult to celebrate. Embracing the spiritual may be a way to enjoy a meaningful Christmas.

In the latest episode of The Christmas Show at MyMerryChristmas we explore the Christmas When You Can’t. It’s not about Christmas in hard times it is about Christmas when one is having a hard time.

Is it possible to have a Christmas song that is famous and yet unknown?

That is, in essence, the Legend of Ricky Bland.

In this musical episode we tell the story of Ricky, his miserable Christmas, and the Christmas song from 1987 that you may have heard then but you have not heard since.

Ricky is the epitome of the one-hit Christmas wonder.

We bill it as the Most Depressing Christmas song of all time.

For you, well, it may just roc...

Christmas Past is a term that conjures up a lot of images in the mind. In those two words we are instantly reminded of things that are precious to us.

The power of Christmas past is evident in nearly all that we do to celebrate the season. Our music is filled with the golden oldies of Christmas, our decorating yields to even ancient practices of yore, and our foods are traditionally festive and have been so since before we were bor...

The Baby of Bethlehem is the topic of this very personal episode of the Merry Little Podcast.

We sing of Him in song and celebrate the Nativity as a part of every Christmas – but why?

Based on this sincere question from a listener we discuss the tender mercies of Christmas and the effect it has on the living and the dead.

How does one without faith makes sense of it all? Our listener celebrates the season year round, enjoy...

We are pleased to present our annual and traditional episode of new Christmas music.

This is far and away our most popular episode every year and it has nothing to do with the host. These featured artists graciously offer up their music for review and allow us to include them in this special episode.

Evidently you love it too. Last year’s episode has not only been listened to more than a quarter of a million times it is still going...

Great Christmas podcasts are made of one very simple ingredient: love.

That is the conclusion of two very different podcasts we feature in this episode.

One is two years old and has published dozens of episodes. The other is brand new, only weeks old.

Yet the commonality in their creation and the motivation for bringing it all online is surprisingly the same. In fact, we have found this in nearly every other podcast we have feature...

Christmas podcasts have exploded in number over the past couple of years. A decade ago there were just a handful of us podcasting Christmas. Now there are several hundred.

How do you sort all that out? What are the truly great podcasts of Christmas?

Sure, that is a subjective thing. But if you want a balanced look at the Best of Christmas Podcasts, we point you to a two-month project that surveyed listeners, Christmas publications,...

Christmas of the 20th Century takes a very progressive turn in Part 3 of this series, this one covering the 1920s.

It was a time of technological explosion and it touched nearly every part of Christmas. American homes were increasingly converted to electric service, making the use of washing machines, dishwashers, lights, and every imaginable appliance now a fact of modern living.

Christmas of the 20th Century continues with this new episode exploring the years from 1910 to 1919. It was an epic era of change fueled by World War I and a global pandemic.

But what was it really like?

Everything in the world was changing. During these years we went from horse-and-buggy to speedy automobiles. News was soon to be heard over the radio before it could be printed in newspapers. Houses were starting to become wired f...
