Merry Christmas from Billy and the BIT CREW

The BIT elves worked overtime to deliver this BONUS Christmas day episode.

Captains' Cove is a seaside town with a lighthouse and a shipwreck that is absolutely obsessed with sandwiches. As 2024 winds down and the residents prepare for the Annual Turkey Cutting Competition, love is in the air, and mayo is in their bags (IYKYK).

Documentarian Winston Hartsdale is filming a historical documentary, SHIPWRECKED AT SEA...OR DEAD?, about the WW II shipwreck visible from the town's beachfront. The town, which is not interested in history, has other ideas for Harstdale's subject matter.

As romance blooms between sandwich enthusiasts Hannah Hoy and Thad Justin, most of the town is focused on the upcoming competition. Thad is back in town after a long absence to investigate the new sandwich shop but keeps bumping into the lovely Hannah. Will he choose love or expose the town's scandal?

Local soap shop owner April Sprinkles and her bestie May Flour take their job as contest judges very seriously. There are unconfirmed rumors that May lost her left pinky finger in a booby-trapped turkey in the 2021 competition. There are also rumors that these two have had mutual crushes since high school.

Former cobblers Lucente and Guiseppe now serve hoagies and subs with mysterious (but tasty) ingredients. Their newly remodeled shop has attracted the attention of Thad and Jason Meatcutter, the Meat Code Enforcement Officer.

You'll also meet Olive Sharpe, the town's official Mustard Supplier. She won her position in a previous competition and is a condiment curator with some interesting theories about mayo and mustard.

The town ghost is likely that of Walter Hartsdale I, our documentarian's grandfather. His efforts to connect with his heir are frustrated by WH III's non-belief in ghosts.

The lighthouse keeper is also a landscape painter who embellishes his works with murderous and cannibalistic elements. He does not like being upstaged by the brewing romance.

As always, this podcast is 100% unscripted. Music and sound effects were added in post.

Mistletoe Mishaps is an instant Holiday Classic!

The sleepy ski town of Snowman Slopes teeters on financial ruin. If its perpetual fundraising goal isn't met by the end of the year, the 2024 ski champion (aka "Snowman") will be its last. Hence, the town's 350 occupants will be forced to power down the gondolas and ski lifts and head west.

World-renowned filmmaker Susan Redding is on hand to document Snowman Slopes' plight and encounters a little more than she bargained for. Her hard-hitting, no-nonsense style softens as she gets to know the town's inhabitants. We are sure she is secretly rooting for the town even though she is maintaining her signature objectivity.

As romance blooms between Sandy (a former Snowman Slopes pageant queen who is in town for the annual event) and Jonathan (her previously vertically challenged high school pal who never moved away), the townsfolk rally to raise money to save the town.

Holiday magic and miracles abound. You'll meet Frosty the dancing snowman, Santa himself, and a little bird who happily flies about sharing mistletoe and a song.
