The Dream Factory Christmas Show
Episode 24
Monday, 22 December, 2025
Happy holidays everyone! To mark this special time of year I’m opening my home (just like Judy Garland did on TV in 1963) to some cherished podcast family and friends. Together we’ll discuss a few of the MGM classics that have become must-watches over the Christmas season.Conor from The Garland Gab is back with me to discuss a Judy Garland classic; my podcast mentors Tara and EmKay from Down the Yellow Brick Pod explore some Oz Christmas connections (and Kevin McCallister!); Christian the host of That Ol' Gay Classic Cinema happily joins me to celebrate the MGM adaptation of Little Women; and our friend Nate makes a return to chit-chat about the OTHER Christmas movie in James Stewart’s canon. Plus I reflect on my favourite film of all time which is also a Christmas classic. Oh and there’s also a surprise message from an Oscar winner too….ho ho ho!You can catch up on season one episodes of The Dream Factory now on Apple & Spotify! Season two will be roaring onto the scene in spring 2026….Guest Links:Down the Yellow Brick Pod: linktr.ee/DowntheYBPThe Garland Gab:https://www.youtube.com/@TheGarlandGabThat Ol' Gay Classic Cinema:https://www.youtube.com/@thatolgayclassiccinemainstagram.com/thatolgayclassiccinemaThanks for listening!
