Day 9: The race for Christmas Number One

We welcome you once again to the trial of the century: yes, Santa Claus is in the dock, and the prosecution and defence will present the evidence for and against the imprisonment of Saint Nick - and the cancellation of Christmas. So far, we have argued the case for and against Christmas trees, shopping, pantomimes, cracker jokes, and more - and on this day in our Christmas court, you - the jury - will be asked to deliberate on the race for Christmas Number One. Do you really think that they are the top of the pops? Or should they be relegated to the bargain bin for the rest of time? After hearing the evidence, we are inviting you - the members of the jury - to have your say about today's court proceedings. Visit our Twitter page @LaudablePods to vote on whether you agree with the prosecution or the defence. And come back tomorrow for another day in our Christmas court, as Santa's salvation or incarceration edges nearer. The Trial of Santa Claus is a Laudable production, presented and produced by Kelly Crichton, Dan McLaughlin, and Matt Millard. The podcast was created by Dan McLaughlin.
