It’s the season finale of Grinch’s podcast, and just in time: Christmas is almost here! And although he’s had some close calls, his heart still hasn’t grown three sizes. That means the pressure’s on for tonight’s guest, singer-songwriter Chloe Bailey (10:20)! Is Chloe the hero that Whoville’s been waiting for? Plus, Chloe performs her Amazon Music Holiday Original “Winter Wonderland.”

Happy holidays from everyone at ‘Tis Th...

Just a few more days until Christmas — ugh! Maybe Grinch will find another holiday hater in tonight’s guest: Seth Meyers (9:20)! Seth usually hosts his talk show from 30 Rockefeller Plaza, which is basically the Mt. Crumpit of Manhattan. And that’s not all he and Grinch have in common. Someone’s heart may be at high risk of growing…

He’s tried to be tolerant, but the Grinch just about had it with the residents of Whoville, and he’ll tell you exactly why (1:13). He hits peak crabbiness before welcoming tonight’s guest, actor Patton Oswalt (8:57)! Patton loves comic books, so Grinch just has to ask: Does Patton Oswalt consider the Grinch a villain? Things might get tense.

This week’s advent calendar gift is perfect for warding off intruders (2:35). Like, for example, a green guy dead-set on stealing the whole holiday… actually, don’t buy this thing, you don’t need it. Then, an exposé from inside the Federal Elf Protection Program (3:54) before the Grinch welcomes tonight’s guest, Meghan Trainor (7:53)! She is far too charismatic for this cave.

Then it’s a Thanksgiving double helping with two special guests: WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes (09:13) and Saturday Night Live alum Bobby Moynihan (21:25)! Hey, don’t forget even with all these celebs around, Grinch is still the headliner.

That advent calendar won’t open itself, so let’s burst those sad little doors wide open!
