What’s up, dudes? This week I’ve got Jack Ford from the Total Christmas Podcast talking Pee-Wee Herman! Yep, it’s the Pee-Wee’s Playhouse Christmas Special, and it’s what we always wanted! We really break it down and talk all about the cameos and special guests. So join us along with Cowboy Curtis, Miss Yvonne, the King of Cartoons, Ms. Rene, Jambi, Chairry, and all the playhouse friends in wishing Pee-Wee a Merry Christmas! Oh, Frankie and Annette are there too!

Synopsis

It’s a variety show, Pee-wee Herman style! Pee-wee introduces celebrity guests at his playhouse as he awaits Santa’s visit. Pee-wee makes a list for Santa Claus as long as a CVS receipt, teaches Little Richard how to ice skate, goes for a sleigh ride with Magic Johnson, commands Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello to make Christmas cards, receives a long phone call from Dinah Shore, even has more musical fun with k.d. lang, the Del Rubio Triplettes and Charo! Finally, Big Red—Santa, that is—arrives and announces that Pee-wee’s Christmas list was so big, he didn’t have enough presents for all the children of the world. Luckily, Pee-wee has a big heart and all’s well that ends well.

Singing triplets? Check. Celebrity slaves making Christmas crafts? Yep. A room made entirely of fruitcake? Spoilers! So grab your magic screen, hop in your Christmas dot sleigh, and ride into this episode all about Pee-wee Herman!
