This is the fifteenth episode of The Podgoblin's Hat, with Nina and Dave. You can find it on it's own feed wherever you get your podcasts.

We're wrapping up this year on the Podgoblin's Hat with Tove's Christmas offering: The Fir Tree.

It's got everything you want from a Christmas story: the light and the dark, the fear and the wonder. There's even a little cameo from the Moomin family gun.

We chat about different translations of this story, we exchange presents and talk at length about egg nog.

Our Spirits of the Moomins this Week are The Father Christmas Letters by JRR Tolkien, the Muppets Christmas Carol, and Christmas Days by Jeanette Winterson. Our Spirits of the Podgoblin's Hat is The Last Christmas, the final episode of Dave's other podcast Getting Better Acquainted.

The Podgoblin's Hat Episode 15: The Fir Tree

The Reactionaries are are an alt. pop duo from East London and we are looking forward to making some NOISE.

Bringing together folk, pop, electro and punk influences and a DIY attitude The Reactionaries want to DANCE, they want to GROOVE and most of all they want to BURROW DEEP INSIDE YOUR HEADS and live there.

With manic energy, catchy hooks and offbeat subject matter The Reactionaries offer up strange and beautiful slices that will make your feet tap and your head snap.

The pair met when bouncing around with the other fruit inside a cloth bag. The bag was full of Apples For Everyone.

Have a listen to our tunes and let us know what you think. You can reach us here or email us at: thereactionaryband@gmail.com
