Hear about the visit to Freethought Hall of the legendary actor Ed Asner (Lou Grant, “Up”). This week’s show is an antidote to traditional Christmas music. We play a number of funny, irreverent (and sometimes positive) Winter Solstice songs, such as “O Isthmus Tree” by Ken Lohnquist, “Solstice Song” by Kristin Lems, “Christmas Carol” by Tom Lehrer, “Blah Blah Bethlehem” by Ian Assersohn, “Christmas is Pain” by Roy Zimmerman and “White Wine in the Sun” by Tim Minchin.
