On our final episode of season 1, we invited Cody Mauser of the bands Freund and Rich Hands to make a mixtape of some of his favorite Christmas songs. We talk about what makes a good Christmas song, why we think there aren't as many original Christmas songs, why some people hate Christmas songs, the Christmas song he just wrote and released, and much more.
Listen as we discuss each of the Christmas songs Cody picked:
1. "Christmas All Over Again" by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
2. "Wonderful Christmastime" by Paul McCartney
3. "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday" by Wizzard
4. "This Christmas" by Donny Hathaway
5. "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" by Darlene Love
