About Us

Host Gerry D

Creator and host of TRC, Gerry D loves all things ‘80s and Christmas, so naturally he mashed them up to start his own show! He works at Decorator’s Warehouse, the largest Christmas store in Texas. His favorite Christmas presents from his childhood were the Super Powers Batmobile, Castle Grayskull, Voltron, and Mega Man 2 for the NES! Something like that.

All-Star Little #1

Little #1 is the cutest podcaster ever! She’s into Harry Potter, Lego, and hopes to receive her letter to Hogwarts soon. If not, maybe she can star in a High School Musical sequel. Or not. Who knows? Either way, she’ll continue to help out her old man when he needs a fun, new perspective on some rad ’80s classics!

All-Star Thom Crowe

A founding elf of ‘Tis the Podcast, Thom has a self-diagnosed Christmas obsession and is known to subject his very loving and supportive wife and sweet daughter to Christmas music during the hottest of Oklahoma months. Throughout the year, Thom serves as an Orthodox deacon, volunteers with teens, works marketing magic, loves to cook, and enjoys reading, and lots of nerdy things.

All-Star Anthony Caruso

‘Tis the Podcast’s Anthony inherited his love for Christmas from his parents, specifically his mother. He firmly believes that Christmas is a feeling that should be celebrated year round, not just once a year. Besides the holidays, Anthony is: an aspiring author; a proud geek; an animal lover; and a progressive, feminist, political nerd. In addition, he watches way too many movies and television shows, and is adept at dropping quotes from all of them into everyday conversation. He loves his wife and two cats more than anything else, including Christmas itself.

Before moving to Los Angeles, Host of Can’t Wait for Christmas, Tim Babb began his career as an air personality on Mix 106.5FM in San Jose, California. Doing stand-up for so many years in the shadow of San Francisco resulted in an act that takes the edge of the big city and combines it with the geek factor of the Silicon Valley and adds the energy of a human cartoon. Tim’s not trying to change the world, he just wants to make it laugh….one audience at a time.
