Cancel Me, Santa (ft. Parker Molloy)

For this year's last episode, Katelyn & Oliver dive into the War on Christmas with the one and only Parker Molloy, author of The Present Age Newsletter and former editor-at-large of Media Matters. In this episode, we discuss Fox News' burning Christmas tree, the historical origins of the so-called War on Christmas, and how the right-wing talking point relates to the ongoing conversation around cancel culture. Plus, we have our very first Cancel Us segment, where we invite you to cancel us for our spicy takes.

The pearl clutching about “cancel culture” and “censorship” has become louder and more absurd while also getting more and more play in the media. Journalists Katelyn Burns and Christine Grimaldi see this panic for what it is though: a grift. They take a closer look at these temper tantrums, dispelling myths, laughing at the most outrageous takes, and shedding light on which perspectives are actually being suppressed and left out of the conversation.
