On this edition of the Richard Crouse Show, comedian and actor Matt Walsh was nominated for two Primetime Emmy Awards for his role as Mike McLintock in “Veep.” He is a founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade sketch comedy troupe, was a correspondent on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and has appeared in films such as Road Trip, Bad Santa and The Hangover.

He co-wrote and stars in the new film, “Unplugging,” a new comedy now on VOD, that sees a workaholic husband and wife, played by Matt and Eva Longoria, who are both permanently glued to their phones. In an effort to relax, they go off the grid on a rustic getaway with no cell service, internet or social media to revive their marriage. But what starts as the perfect weekend getaway quickly spirals out of control with unearthly encounters, strong edibles, cranky locals, and a pesky one - eyed dog. Without GPS to guide them or social media to save them, they are forced to rediscover what truly matters — each other.

Then we meet “Pressure” star Kevin Doyle. In the show, now playing the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto, it’s D-Day, June 1944. The Allied forces led by General Eisenhower are poised to launch. 350,000 lives are at stake and the decision of whether to attack comes down to the most important weather forecast of all time. 

We talk about “Pressure,” and his most famous role, “Downton Abbey's second footman, Joseph Molesley.

Nochebuena triste

Todo era paz en las calles
en una noche tan bella
la alegría reinaba en los hogares
y en el cielo brillaban las estrellas.

Pero en mi hogar esa suerte
la transformó el sufrimiento
el recuerdo de un ser querido ausente
no se marchaba de nuestros pensamientos.

Siempre que alguien querido 
lejos está del hogar
esta noche es sabido
que se le recuerda más.

Estribillo

Nochebuena triste
nochebuena larga
nochebuena humilde
nochebuena amarga.

-----------    

En un ambiente muy frío
fue transcurriendo la cena
las miradas hacia el lugar vacío
nos aumentaban la pena, la tristeza. 

En el reloj de la torre
con un tañido apagado
muy despacio sonaban ya las doce
que daban paso a la misa del gallo.

Alguien en este momento
con gran pesar llorará
en su mente habrá un recuerdo
que no se puede apartar.

Estribillo

sad christmas eve

Everything was peace in the streets
on such a beautiful night
joy reigned in the homes
and the stars shone in the sky.

But in my home that luck
suffering transformed her
the memory of an absent loved one
It didn't leave our thoughts.

Whenever someone dear
far from home
tonight it is known
that is remembered most.

Chorus

sad christmas eve
long christmas eve
humble christmas eve
bitter christmas eve

-----------

In a very cold environment
dinner was going on
the glances towards the empty place
They increased our pain and sadness.

In the clock tower
with a dull ringing
very slowly twelve o'clock was already ringing
that gave way to the midnight mass.

someone at this moment
with great regret he will cry
in his mind there will be a memory
that he can't get away.

Chorus
