Think of the next half-hour as the sonic equivalent of a kiss stolen under the mistletoe and pursued by Interpol across three continents before being tracked down to a gene-splicing lab in Switzerland where a mad scientist is trying to turn the kiss into a supernova snog that will smother the world to death in a tsunami of lipstick and brandy-flavoured spittle. Most importantly, we want this episode to be a reminder that this is the time of year to cherish the most valuable things in life: family, togetherness, love, a candlelit turkey dinner for… Well, only for one, in your host Michael’s case. Are you having trouble getting into the Christmas spirit? Then tune into episode 15 of the Extra Extra Radio Show. The show is written and performed by Dan Fox and Michael Portnoy in close collaboration with Loes Verstappen who selected the music, and Monte Masi. Voice acting by Dan Fox, Michael Portnoy, Johnny Vivash, Thomas Dudkiewicz and Loveday Smith. Editing and sound design by Tobias Withers. Drawings by Fiona Lutjenhuis.
