🎄 Extend your ears as we revisit a lesser-known Rankin/Bass special from 1977 that unravels a new side quest to the Nativity story. 🎙️ Lindy Kempe and Brandon Medley droop in to salute “Nestor the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey,” the first of a Christmas donkey double feature. **** 💬 Topics & Tangents: Roger Miller performing “ Do Wacka Do ” in 1966 with another guitarist, “Stubbs,” who’s wearing a Batman T-shirt. Roger Miller’s “ Whistle Stop ” in Disney’s “Robin Hood” is secretly the Hamster Dance . Tilly’s ascension back to heaven is strikingly similar to Poochie’s exit from “The Itchy and Scratchy Show.” Mary has the Glow from “ The Last Dragon .” Annalee Santa dolls . **** “Nestor the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey” © 1977 Rankin/Bass Productions, Inc.
