Starting this Sunday, 12/8, popGeezer Radio kicks off three consecutive weeks of Holiday specials! This weekend it's an encore of our mellow 2012 "Calm & Bright Christmas Hootenanny" - originally aired live on The Mothership!

  On 12/15, the first all-new program turns up. popGeezer.com's very own TV critic par excellence, Cadillac Jack, has pulled his broadcasting microphone out of mothballs, and his two-decades of radio experience are re-displayed for all to hear in "Cadillac Jack's 'No More Grandmas' Very Special Christmas Special"! Using his own legendary holiday CD gifties as inspiration, CJ crafts almost three hours of eclectic modern holiday tunes, a few gags, and a list of the 5 most awful Christmas songs of all time.

  Finally, on 12/22, your very own popGeezer unleashes his 2013 elf's brew, "The 2013 (Mostly) Contemporary Christmas", which will use mostly tracks from 2007 and up, with a smattering classic holiday material. There will be some of the achingly inappropriate goodies you've come to expect, but also lots of pretty pretty songs. All of these shows premier on Sundays (12/8, 15 & 22) at 5 PM CT on JDX1029.com, the Mothership of Rock Radio!!

And if you stop by my trusty old popGeezer Radio stream anytime during the rest of December, you'll hear tracks from the super-poppy 2013 popGeezer Radio Hot 100!! JDX1029.com & the popGeezer Radio network will keep you rocking all December long!!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year from popGeezer Radio!!!
