FOF #904 – Incredibly Strange Christmas Music

Christmas music connects us to a sense of childhood wonder bot it can also drive us mad!
On today’s special eggnog flavored Feast of Fools we’re taking you sleigh ride of crazy as we play for you some of the most insane, scary, offensive and over the top Christmas themed music.
We’ve got singing animals, fascist robots who want to wish you a merry Christmas, music by homeless people, drag queens, people who want to have sex with Santa and songs about why we love to be miserable during the holidays.
Also joining us to celebrate the bizarre Christmas music is our good pal, blogger Rick the Rocketman Aiello. He’s blogged about Christmas music people actually enjoy, so I thought it might be fun to hear him react to our F-list collection of music.
This show is not for children. It’s mostly in poor taste, but the second half gets a little raunchy, so please don’t let kids listen to the second half of the show.
If you’re looking for a good, cheap holiday last minute gift, why not buy all the music featured here and make a trashy Christmas mix CD for your friend?
This is our last live recorded show of the year, but we’ll still be posting regularly on the site lots of yummy goodies and classic podcast episodes you’ve probably forgotten about, or never heard. Thank you for a great 2008!

We love Ben Lerman so much we had to have him back!
He sobered up a bit since yesterday’s show and he’s ready to engage us about some fascinating news and social trends.
Who names their kids after fascist, racist dictators? Heath Campbell went to several cake shops trying to get his three-year-old’s name written on a birthday cake. The only problem is his son’s name is Adolf Hitler Campbell. Heath says he wanted his son to have a unique name.
Before you think these are some weird racist people, the Campbells actually deny being racist, claiming they invited children of mixed races into their home for the birthday party. But would you let your child attend a birthday party for Adolph Hitler?
Will Obama legalize pot? This week Pres. Elect Obama’s site Change.gov asked the general public what were some of their pressing issues and concerns they wanted the transition team to answer the most. The #1 question chosen by far by sit visitors was: “Will you consider legalizing marijuana so that the government can regulate it, tax it, put age limits on it, and create millions of new jobs and create a billion dollar industry right here in the U.S.?”
Sadly, their answer was no. “President-elect Obama is not in favor of the legalization of marijuana.”
What’s up with eggbeaters and people who collect and fight over them?
Come join us this Sunday, Dec. 21 at the Annoyance Theater for the “Lerman Holiday” Special, with Ben Lerman, Cameron Esposito and Adam Guerino, hosted by Marc Felion and me, Fausto Fernós. Click here for the Facebook Group Event.
We also have fitness expert Ken Hunt, owner of Steel Gym in New York City, named the number one gym for it’s second year in a row by the American Fitness institute.
Ken’s talking about why the holiday season is a popular time for people to start working out, and some ideas on how you can get in shape and stick to your new fitness plan.
How do you start out? What are some common mistakes people make when staying in shape? What is the minimum amount of exercise you need to do in order to look like a body builder?
Check out Ken’s fitness tips on his website. Tell him you heard him on the Feast of Fools podcast and he’ll cut you a deal on your gym membership.
Plus, hot fresh ukulele music form Ben!
