What’s up, dudes? I’ve got Anthony Caruso from ‘Tis the Podcast with me to break down all things 1979 Rankin Bass special “Jack Frost”! Jack Frost is an immortal winter sprite. When he espies the beautiful Elisa, he becomes enamored of her, and asks Father Winter to make him mortal. Father Winter agrees to do so, but only if Jack can complete a few tasks. He even has help from winter sprites Snip and Holly. Of course, the evil renegade Cossack Kubla Kraus with his army of Keh-Nights has something to say about it! He’ll stop at nothing to have Elisa and all that town’s money!
We also create an aural red yarn line conspiracy-style graphic trying to untangle the very loose continuity of the R/B universe! Or is it multiverse? Is Kubla Kraus the Burgermeister’s ancestor? Could Father Winter be the Snow Miser’s father? Is Bill Murray’s “Groundhog Day” part of the R/B canon? So grab your ice coins, wrap an empty gift, and cast a magic shadow as you dip into this episode!
