'Tis The Grinch Holiday Podcast

The magical Cinnamon Bear, played by the one and only Alan Cumming, helps little Jimmy and Judy on a quest to find their stolen tree-topping star! Because what is Christmas without the star on the tree? Along the way, they’ll encounter some bizarre characters, including Mr. Presto the Magician voiced by John Goodman, and even Santa Claus himself, played by Ryan Reynolds.

The Grinch has some holiday HOT TAKES to end the season. Two off the top of his very green head. First, absolutely no jacked Santa Clauses. Ripped J. K. Simmons, GET OUT OF HERE. Second, and this one might be mild depending on who you ask, Thanksgiving music is superior to Christmas music. Name your top ten right now. Speaking of music, Australian boy band 5 Seconds of Summer drops by to talk about their latest album Everyone’s a Star, and no, they are not referring to whatever is jammed on top of your tree. The Grinch also learns a shocking amount about his favorite marsupial, the kangaroo. And then finally, the event everyone’s been waiting for… Grinch-A-Palooza has arrived. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Grinch wonders what happened to a simple dinner experience. NO flaming volcano cakes. NO souvenir cups. And ABSOLUTELY NO exponential fusions that leave you with a taco-crusted French onion soup. Meanwhile, holiday-cookie-obsessed Audrey Nuna swings by with HUNTR/X approved training and teaches the Grinch the finer points of K-Pop demon hunting. She also confirms that Mira is sharpening her vocals and her blades for a sequel. And with Grinch-A-Palooza about to go live, Cindy Lou Who makes one last attempt at a truce to save Christmas.

The Grinch has had it with “The Twelve Days of Christmas.” Math plus Christmas equals DISASTER and discovering that the song adds up to 78 gifts is worse than watching an influencer get buried in PR packages. Then, Mark Hamill arrives on Mount Crumpit from a galaxy far, far away to talk favorite green icons: Yoda, Kermit, and of course THE GRINCH! He also shares what it’s like going from outer space to Bikini Bottom. Meanwhile, Grinch-A-Palooza is battling Who-ville ad campaigns and things are heating up faster than hot cocoa in a sweater.

The Grinch has had it with holiday tourism. The selfie sticks. The nonstop oohing and ahhing at lights. And the absolute worst part, the fact that he has somehow become a Who-ville landmark. PACK IT UP. BOOK A RETURN TRIP. AND LEAVE HIM OUT OF IT. Then, David Henrie drops in to talk about the magic of growing up on Wizards of Waverly Place and embracing its legacy, even if it officially makes him a Disney adult. He also explains why Selena Gomez will always be his Cindy Lou Who. After that, the Grinch hires Who-ville’s hottest stylist. His everyday, 100% green fur coat just isn’t going to cut it for the Palooza.

The Grinch is not about to sleigh around town in a rideshare. What, he’s supposed to scoot over for Donner, Dasher, Vixen?! And the WORST part? The holiday small talk with the driver! Absolutely NOT! The Ten Toe Express will do just fine this winter. Then Jake Shane stops by to therapize his prickliest, most curmudgeonly, celeb-adjacent superstar yet: the Grinch, who is somehow both the patient and the problem. Meanwhile, the Grinch attempts to break ground on the giant mosh pit for his festival and accidentally awakens some of Whoville’s most ghostly bunch. Ho ho no. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Grinch has had it with Christmas clutter. No one cares that you went to Paris and brought back an Eiffel Tower ornament. Why does your sidewalk need a candy cane runway? And what’s that at the bottom of the bin… a forgotten wreath? WRONG. Junk. Then Devery Jacobs stops by to chat about Canadian traditions like Boxing Day, how cold it gets up north, and what life is like in her Indigenous homeland of Kahnawà:ke Mohhawk Territory, eh. Afterwards, the Grinch starts plotting his grand entrance for Grinch-A-Palooza, and it may or may not involve a cannon.

The Grinch knows he’s one of the last true one-name icons. Adele. Beyoncé. Grinch. But people with three names—first, middle, and last? Pick a lane, bro! Then, Ben Schwartz drops by to talk Sonic the Hedgehog, and the Grinch has thoughts for a reboot of his own. (Spoiler: it involves strapping a real hedgehog to a nitrous rocket.) Later, the Grinch hunts for a security squad to keep the Grinch-a-palooza mosh pit festive, feral, and juuuust shy of criminal.

The Grinch can’t stomach another “Get Ready With Me” on InstaWho or WhoTok. There’s only room for one influencer in this town, and his message is simple: ABOLISH CHRISTMAS. Then, NFL legend Rob Gronkowski blitzes into the cave and shocks everyone by comparing the Grinch to his former coach, Bill Belichick. Meanwhile, the Grinch’s plan to sabotage the Whoville Christmas tree lighting is taking flight. Literally. He’s smuggled an entire flock of Crumpit Cockatoos into town.

The Grinch has a bone to pick with Christmas trees. Nothing says “holiday cheer” like chopping down a living thing and evicting a few perfectly tasty forest critters. Then, fellow holiday-hater, Jameela Jamil drops by and shares her own tradition, celebrating Hanksgiving, a day devoted entirely to the films of Tom Hanks. Could this be love? Maybe. Could it be indigestion? Also maybe. Meanwhile, Grinch-A-Palooza planning is running wild with a budget that’s burning faster than fruitcake.

The Grinch is back for Season 3, louder, greener, and more self-absorbed than ever. Then, the Jonas Brothers crash the cave with a little holiday harmony and a lot of sibling chaos. RUDE! But, Grinch makes the best of it and finds out what we all want to know: which one’s the real bad boy? Later, Grinch unveils his biggest scheme yet, and let’s just say a certain holiday has some serious new competition.

Follow 'Tis the Grinch Holiday Podcast on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. Grinch is back and jollier than NEVER! Whoville’s sassiest late-night talk show host returns for season 3 with more sharp-tongued monologues about everything nipping at his nose this holiday season, his signature brand of merry mischief, and a fete of festive banter, determined to charm a sleigh-full of A-list guests into admitting that Christmas might just be ho-ho-horribly overrated. This season, Grinch unveils his boldest scam yet: "Grinch-a-palooza," an over-the-top extravaganza timed to outshine Whoville’s beloved tree lighting ceremony. But when his trusted producer Cindy Lou-Who sides with the town’s holiday tradition instead of helping him plan the perfect palooza, the ultimate festive face-off begins. Grinch vs. Cindy—whose Christmas Eve bash will reign supreme? The battle for holiday supremacy is officially ON.

Case closed, job well done! Wait… there’s still a problem. Cindy receives a call from none other than Santa Claus himself. He’s glad the culprit was nabbed, but he still never received those letters! And now there’s no time to re-mail them — he’s already sleighing around the world! Cindy has an idea of how Grinch can still deliver the messages on time… if he’s willing to get in the holiday spirit.

Cindy’s up at the North Pole with no idea that Grinch and Max are getting run out of town by wild gingerbread soldiers. That is, until she sees them flee! She grabs ahold of Max in time to discover that he made a secret recording… that just might prove to the world that Postmaster Glee is the true villain of this year’s Christmas caper!

With the cuckoo clock riddle partially-solved, Cindy and Max sneak out for a trip to the Whoville Penitentiary. Yes, Whoville has a prison! Can T-Bone, a criminal elf cast out of Santa’s workshop, give Cindy and Max any more clues… or is this a dead end in the investigation?

Cindy receives a mysterious (and slightly tacky) delivery: A strange, puzzling cuckoo clock. Could it be a clue? Maybe something that helps determine where that missing letter came from — and where the rest are still hidden?! A hidden riddle might hold the answer, if Cindy can just figure out what it’s trying to say… Be the first to know about Wondery’s newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

The weather outside is frightful, but you’ll warm right up with a fresh batch of the Grinch’s scalding-hot Holiday hot takes [2:22]! Then, the only A-Lister with better hair than the Grinch, the legendary John Stamos makes it a full house atop Mt. Crumpit [6:40].

Grinch is over Secret Santa gift exchanges [2:54] — the only gift he wants is NO CHRISTMAS! Then, some very good luck: Fortune Feimster is here [6:40]! There’s a lot of talk of wienerschnitzel, but she didn’t bring a single hot dog for Max. Rude! She leaves just before the Whoville police show up, ready to arrest Grinch for a crime he didn’t commit [16:17]. Ugh, why are the holidays always so stressful?!

Grinch is disturbed to learn that not all of his listeners spend the season in freezing cold weather [2:52], but hey, not everyone is blessed enough to live on a snowflake. (That’s where Whoville is located, try to keep up with the lore!) Then, Nick Kroll from the new Christmas blockbuster, Red One [7:52] drops by for a heart to heart about the holidays. Once he’s gone, the missing letters mystery sends Grinch, Max and Cindy Lou to the most horrible place of all: The North Pole [18:06]!

He did it last year and he’s doing it again: Prank calls are back, baby [3:55]! Not that we’re giving a thumbs-up to prank calls — it’s only cool when Grinch does it - and even then they usually blow up in his furry green face! Speaking of cool, Grinch conducts a slam dunk interview with NBA All-Star DeAndre Jordan [6:56]! Then, a pivotal turn in the case of the missing letters to Santa [20:35]. Let’s just say if there’s one source we can always trust… it’s Max’s nose. Be the first to know about Wondery’s newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!
