Around the Christmas trees and surrounded by uncanny felt dog ornaments, Sydney and Shannon ring in the PAWliday season with THE 12 DOGS OF CHRISTMAS. A newsie cap-wearing pre-teen is shipped off to stay with her father’s estranged ex-lover in a town that is FOOTLOOSE but dogs—oh, and it’s also the Great Depression. What makes a dog orphan? How do you determine whether something is a miracle or it’s just something that happens? Will Sydney’s childhood favorite live up to nearly a decade of hype? We hope everyone is having a MARE-y Christmas and a happy n-EWE year!

It’s Turkey Lurkey Time! While you are going around the table saying things to be grateful for this Thanksgiving, remember to thank Sydney and Shannon for bringing you another holiday episode. FREE BIRDS has it all: time traveling turkeys, mild racism, and half the cast of Star Trek. Do we have pizza clairvoyance? When will the two buff turkeys finally give in to their outstanding chemistry and make out? Is the PAWdcast accidentally sexist? Everyone go call a family member and leave them a voicemail where you inexplicably gobble gobble.

Shannon and Sydney welcome CoComelon Live star, Taylor, to enjoy a movie best viewed on a Sunday morning alongside fellow sober adults. LYLE, LYLE, CROCODILE is a confusing yet musical romp through NYC, where everyone knows Lyle is Shawn Mendes, but no one knows who Lyle is as a character. Does stage fright go away when the cops are watching? What is the most interesting animal you can fit under your hat that you can afford right now, that will sit there as you sing and dance and won’t bite you? Has Shannon recovered from falling out of a moving car? Please let us know if you also think Constance Wu and Lyle Crocodile are having an affair.
