Hi, and welcome to the short stuff. I should say Merry Christmas and welcome to the short stuff, everybody, because this episode comes out on December 25th, which as many people know is Christmas

Day. That's right. And it's a rare Christmas short stuff where we also have to issue a warning for kids listening

that this story, while beautiful and lovely, takes a very dark turn as yet another maritime disaster episode.

Yeah, I mean, I guess I had second thoughts about this, but reading over it again, I'm like,

no, this is a good Christmas story.

Yeah, this was so funny to me.

I just have to tell everyone, when Josh sent it, I thought he was sending it as a joke of like,

hey, here's a Christmas thing, because I had already given him a hard time about all the

maritime disaster episodes we do.

And here was another one.

And you're like, do we do a lot of those?

I was like, are you kidding me?

I still couldn't tell.

Yeah, no, I forgot about the orang-madan and Mystery of the Sarah Joe two for in like, I think, two weeks in a row or something.

Yeah, but hey, this one is about the death of Captain Santa.

Yeah, so just bring some jingle bells for this maritime disaster, and it'll differentiate

it from the others, right?
